He closed his eyes, taking a deep breath, trying to gain some control over his emotions. He didn't want to hurt Taesan, he didn't want to mislead him. He felt a strange sense of responsibility towards him, a feeling he couldn't quite explain.
He opened his eyes, meeting Taesan's gaze. Taesan's eyes, usually so warm and inviting, now held a hint of desperation, a plea for him to make a decision.
The pressure of Taesan's words, the weight of his expectations, it was too much for Sungho to bear. He stepped back, his voice barely a whisper. "I can't," he said, shaking his head. "I need time to think. I need to understand my feelings."
Taesan's face fell. "I understand," he said, his voice flat. He stepped back, his gaze avoiding Sungho's.
"I'll leave you to it," he said, turning away and approaching the door.
Sungho watched him go, a sense of guilt washing over him. He knew he had hurt Taesan, but he couldn't force himself to lie. He needed time to figure out his own feelings, to understand the confusing mess that lay within him.
"Taesan," Sungho called out, his voice trembling. "I'm sorry. I didn't mean to hurt you."
Taesan stopped at the door, but he didn't turn around. "It's okay," he said, his voice strained. "I'll give you the time you need."
He opened the door and slipped out, leaving Sungho alone in his room. He felt a wave of exhaustion wash over him, the weight of his indecision weighing heavily on his heart. He slumped onto the bed, burying his face in his hands.
He didn't know what the future held. He didn't know if he would ever be able to sort out his feelings, to understand what he truly wanted. All he knew was that he had a long road ahead of him, a road paved with uncertainty and the possibility of heartbreak.

The next morning, the alarm rang, waking everyone up. "This alarm is pissing me off", Woonhak said still lying down.
They all gather in the kitchen to prepare their breakfasts. There was clearly some tension, everyone could see it. Riwoo whispers to Leehan as he says, "Something did definitely happened yesterday night between Taesan and Sungho because Taesan looks sad"
Leehan nodded. "Yeah, what do you think happened?"
"He got definitely rejected," Riwoo replied.
Suddenly, Jaehyun yelled, "Everyone, let's eat breakfast quickly, we have a lot to do today"
"I'm going to eat in my room," Sungho said as he walked up the stairs.
They were all looking at each other, not knowing what was going on. "I think we should leave him alone for now," Taesan said, making his way to the table.
