It was sundown, a particularly warm day considering that it must have been autumn by now. We've reached a small, deserted house and I was surprised to see something like this here, after all this district had been uninhabited for decades. Baekhyun pushed open what seemed like the main door, which creaked eerily with every opening inch.

"Do you remember?"

For a moment I was irritated and delayed my actions to halt beneath the doorframe of the house. I shivered as I saw the warm colors of the wall, the calming and familiar sent lingering in the air, the neat and clean furnishing which indicated that someone was indeed living in here. My eyes trailed to the stairs at the corner of the room that lead to another floor, wherein voices were echoing through the walls; only leaving a faint noise downstairs. My heart has never felt more at ease than this very moment, not only because Baekhyun had wrapped his arms around me from behind.

"Do you remember this place?"

The voices and shrill laughter were getting louder, however they were not only in our heads but to be heard in the entire house as quiet steps bounced off the wooden stair steps, coming closer with every passing second.

This was our home. And even though I didn't seem to remember it, I was entirely convinced of the fact that this is where we both we belonged. The place where he planned to take me all along, like bringing me from the false past into the truthful present.
