the school bell rang signaling class will be dismissed.

"alright class, that's all for today. make sure to finish your task before next week or I'll cut down your mark "

the teacher, Mr. Lee went out of the class leaving the students behind because it's recess time.

" beomgyu-hyung.. are you ok? you don't look fine since the class started."

"huening-ah.. did you see him too? "

"see who? "

"taehyun. "

"what are you talking about hyung.. it's been a month, and he's never coming back.. do you think he's alive?"

"huening-ah.. I kept seing him.. he keeps peeking at the windows staring at us.. and when I caught him,he would hide.. taehyun.. I swear taehyun is here huening.. he's alive.. I saw him.. maybe he's not ready to show himself but he's alive.. huening he's alive.. "

"woah woah hyung.. calm down.. beomgyu hyung listen to me.. hyung.. follow me.. deep breath" huening slowly talks to beomgyu who is getting a little bit out of control..

it's been a month since taehyun is missing.. before the incident, taehyun calls beomgyu to say something.. but the tables turned after the call.

+×+

"beomgyu hyung.. I want to tell you something. can we meet? just for a while. "

"what is it taehyun? I'm busy. just say it now"

"hyung.. I- you know what.. fine.. you're the one going to regret this. hyung, I wanted to tell you that I'm grateful to have known you. as a friend, and as a brother. but hyung, things didn't really go well for me. I want to apologize to you hyung. for the last time, I want to say, I'm really sorry hyung.. I'm sorry, I love you "

"what? what are you talk- "

beep! the call was immediately hang up by taehyun.

"aishh this kid.. what is his talking about? hmmm.. probably a prank"

beomgyu did a mistake by thinking it was a prank.. that's the biggest mistake he did and now, he's living with the guilt and trauma.

+×+

"it's my fault huening. if only I was there that night. if only I call him back. if only I- "

"beomgyu hyung enough! ok.. calm down hyung.. it's not your fault. all of this happen because it was his choice. he decided this to happen.. it was never your fault hyung.. "

"but huening.. I really saw- "

"shushhh.. hyung, you've been hallucinating- "

"huening behind! " beomgyu cut off huening's sentence and shows the area near the window.

huening turned his head to the back and turned to beomgyu again.

"stop it hyung. taehyun is not there.. "

"he's there huening he's there just now I swear "

"huening-ah , beomgyu-ya.. what are y'all doing in the classroom.. y'all don't wanna eat?" soobin and yeonjun enter their classroom to invite them to eat together..

"hyung.. let's go eat first.. come.. the others are waiting for you "

beomgyu looked disappointed because he knows that huening didn't believe him and think that he's hallucinating.. but beomgyu swore that he really saw taehyun. being unable to say anything, beomgyu followed the others to their cafeteria to eat.

at the cafeteria, the situation was a little bit awkward with soobin and yeonjun staring at both huening and beomgyu while huening didn't have a clue of what they means and beomgyu staring blankly at his foods.

"ya, what happened to you both just now? " yeonjun finally speaks up asking question to huening and beomgyu.

huening looked at beomgyu before saying anything. then he look back to yeonjun and soobin.

"beomgyu hyung said that he saw taehyun"

soobin who was eating his food peacefully started coughing and choking his food.

"wha-what? taehyun? " soobin asks for confirmation.

"beomgyu said that he saw taehyun peeking at our class looking at us by the window. I told him that it might just be his hallucination but beomgyu swore that he saw taehyun. and that's why he couldn't focus in class just now "

"you didn't saw him huening-ah? "

"no"

"beomgyu-ya.. I agree with huening.. with what's happening right now, you might have been hallucinating. it's been a month. taehyun wouldn't have survive right now "

"but they never found the body and unless they found the body,I insisted to think that taehyun is dead. think whatever you want.. because I believe, taehyun aren't ready to show himself right now" beomgyu raised his voice which means he's clearly mad at his friends. beomgyu then walk out of the cafeteria leaving his friends behind..

beomgyu refused to believe that he's hallucinating. beomgyu clearly saw those boba eyes of taehyun peeking through the window of the classroom. a mix of emotion is happening at the same time. sad,disappointed, guilty. beomgyu felt like he's going insane.

beomgyu walk to the rooftop where him and taehyun used to hang out most of the time forgetting all the problems and escaping from reality.. just for a while before they need to face the tough reality again.

the cold air on the rooftops touching beomgyu's skin making the boy shivers. without realizing, the skin hair was standing on the end creating goosebumps.

beomgyu felt weird.. why was he getting a goosebumps.. beomgyu was standing on the edge of the rooftop. his inner thoughts is battling.. beomgyu heard voices. he's definitely going insane.

"jump beomgyu jump.. once you jump,all of this will be over."

"no beomgyu.. if you tried to attempt suicide, taehyun won't like it "

"who cares? as if taehyun himself didn't attempt suicide. "

"taehyun will not.."

his inner thoughts making it more difficult for him. beomgyu has always thought about suicidal. even before taehyun went missing.. taehyun was the reason beomgyu still alive.. now when he's not here, beomgyu felt his life is meaningless.. he want to stop the pain, at the same time he's trying to believe that taehyun is still alive.

"hyung! "

suddenly, beomgyu heard a familiar voice calling him coming from behind..

"hyung come down.. now.. please.. it's dangerous"

beomgyu wasn't able to say anything in reply. tears started flowing from his eyes.

"hyung please.."

"why are you here?"

"come down first.. please hyung "

"I want to believe it.. I really want to believe it but.. fuck.. maybe I really am hallucinating"

"hyung please.. come here first then we can talk"

"if I'm not hallucinating,then why are you here? are you haunting me kang taehyun? "

the familiar voice actually belong to taehyun. from the first second taehyun called him just now,beomgyu immediately recognize his voice.. hearing his voice making beomgyu even more insane..is it true? or is it just a hallucination?
