.Jay was supposed to meet up with Sunghoon in a coffee shop
And he made sure to arrive in advance, because every second wasted meant Mr Sim was closer to death, So he really needed to give his all.
He waited and waited until 1 hour passed but the younger didn't show up
Until he ran out of patience, to be ghosted by a person like him was the least thing he wanted, so he ended up going home
As soon as he reached his apartment
He called Jake from the landline and explained to him what happenedJake tried to calm him down by saying that the younger probably had something urgent to do and he would never ghost him like that
but Jay wasn't sure why Jake trsuted him that much."Jay..... Jake said his name in a serious tone "things aren't going right here either"
"Jake "
"Jay listen, I know I am asking too much...
Jay: Don't be ridiculous " the older cut him
Jake: "Jay, I am afraid he is going to die if we don't do anything
Jay I can't help losing him, not after I lost my momPlease don't abandon me too".
Jay felt a tight feelings in his chest as he heard the younger's voice break
Jay: "I would never!"The younger took a long breath before hr spoke again ".... I don't think I will come home tonight either, I will stay by dads side"
Jay: "Alright, don't worry I will explain it to your boss and replace you,
Stay strong ok? you are not alone I am here, we will get through this together I promise" he tried to calm the younger downJake: "We will... I believe it " replied as he stopped crying
"Wait, H-hang on a second" someone knocked on Jay's front door
Jake : "What's wrong? "
Jay: "Jake I will call you later,
Ok? "Jake: Ok, Take care "
Jay: You too"

.Jay wasn't expecting anyone
But when he opened the door he found non other than Park Sunghoon
"What are you doing here ?"
No the real question was how did he find his place when Jay never gave him his address ?
."Won't you invite me inside, where are your manners?"
Sunghoon said, he didn't seem in a good mood, and walked past the older through the door, he went inside without taking off his shoesJay slammed the door shut and followed him
"Why didn't you show up earlier ?" Jay interrogated him, and really hoped he had a good reason.
"I had work to be done! I have my own priorities,... wait, were you crying ?" Sunghoon asked since the older looked gloomy
Jay shook his head
"Do you have my cellphone with you ?" He tried to change the topic
Sunghoon stepped closer to him "Don't you awe me an apology first ?" He pointed at the red mark on his pale cheek
"It still hurts "
"Never in my life has anyone laid a finger on me, not even my dad"Jay probably made a huge mistake, but If the younger thought he would feel bad then he is wrong, because Jay believes he deserved it.
