Wooyoung1 year later.
''Did you eat?''Yeonjun asked him.
It was lunch break at the diner that Wooyoung worked at and he and Yeonjun were at the back of the building leaning against the wall for a smoke break. He was now a freshman at Uni and needed to pay his tuition. His father was married and the wife's kid Yejeong had moved in with them but that was nothing Wooyoung couldn't care less about since he hasn't been staying with them for a whole year now. Yeonjun worked with him and it had been almost four months since the other had applied for a job there. It was very much obvious Wooyoung had been a big inflluence in him working there but he just waved it off and let him be.
''Mmmh''he replied.
Pretty much his whole friend group knew about his eating disorder and always made sure to check on him. It really wasn't necessary anymore though because Wooyoung took care of himself. He was still seeing Ms Nam but their sessions were mostly them applauding Wooyoung's progress. Something he was very much proud of. Yes there was still some relapses here and there but it wasn't anything he didn't have under control.
''I'm thinking of quitting you know.''Yeonjun crushed his cigarette bum under his foot.
''Why?''
''I just don't have time. Keeping up with classes and coming here to work. I don't even know how you do that.''
Wooyoung smiled, his new oreo hair blowing over his face from the strong breeze outside.''That's because you and i had different intentions for working here. You came for me and i came to pay bills."
Yeonjun nodded.''I can't say i regretted it though. You know I'll do anything to make sure you're okay.'
''Trust me I know.''
''It's his birthday tommorrow isn't it?''
Wooyoung tensed."Yeah."
''Still nothing?''Yeonjun asked.
He shook his head with a dry humorless chuckle."Why would i hear from him now when i haven't since a year ago? I just stopped waiting. It hurts to."
''You look like you're hoping for it though.''
''And if i say i did? What would it change? They said no news is good news. I was worried i would hear something bad after what happened to their mother but i'm starting to think they healed and just went on with life. As they should honestly speaking. There's only painful memories for them here.''
"You're not a painful memory for him."
"I beg to differ."
''Wooyoung.''
''Stop. I don't want to talk about it.''he blinked rapidly to dissolve away the tears brimming in his eyes.
Yeonjun sighed.''I guess what matters is you're doing fine now even though i know you're definitely still waiting for him. Your friend on the other hand is just...i don't know what you guys are going to do with him. I'm not even close with him but i feel bad because i've been where he is just under different circumstances.''
