Jisoo P.O.V.

I've been searching for 20 minutes along with the others but still no Chaeyoung.

"Chaengie!" I shout

Where could she be? I hope you're okay.

A flashback comes to my head.

Flashback

"Chaeyoung! Chaengie!" I call for her

Chaeyoung blushes and covers her face, "yeah?"

"If you could disappear and go anywhere in the world, where would you go?" I ask her

"Where did this question come from?" she laughs

"I don't know. I'm just curious" I answer her.

"The park"

"The park? Why?"

"It calms me down. Something about it feels like home"

"Haha, maybe you really were a chipmunk who lived in the park your last life" I joke

"Jisoo! I'm not a chipmunk"

"Chipmunk Chaeyoung!"

End of Flashback

"Why didn't I think of that before?!" I tell myself

I look at my surroundings and start heading towards the park. Once I'm there, I look around for Chaeyoung.

"Chaeyoung! Are you here?!" I shout and run through the trail

I search the playground and see someone familiar on a swing. With a sigh of relief, I walk over to her. I sit on the swing next to her and she turns to look at me.

"J-Jisoo! What are you doing here?" she asks me, surprised to see me

"I heard you hadn't gone home and you weren't at school. Also your phone was off." I tell her

"How?"

"Nevermind that, why are you out here baby?" I ask her

I see her visibly flinch at the pet name.

"Don't call me that anymore" she tells me

"Chaeyoung, if this is because of earlier, I'm sorry. I'm really sorry. I didn't mean to say that." I apologize to her

"That you call everyone 'baby'? It doesn't matter. You can call anyone that. After all, I have no right to complain about that. We don't belong to each other" she tells me and stands up.

I feel a sting in my heart.

I forgot.

I stand up after her.

"Chaeng, I-"

"I'm going to go home now. So don't worry about me and go home. It's pretty late" she says and walks away.

No...

I follow after her, "I'm going to make sure you go home safely"

Chaeyoung P.O.V.

My heart skips.

No matter what, at the end of the day I'll always be in love with you.
