*Youngjae's POV*

It's been probably a month, and both me and Jihyo recovered and moved back to our home.

Irene's people haven't shown up, not even once, after the incident. Somehow, instead of feeling safe, I'm even more worried now. It suddenly became so quiet that I feel like something will happen soon. I rolled around and looked at Jihyo sleeping soundly beside me on the couch.

I admired her, her visuals, her personality, her way of thinking, her actions, her everything.

This past month I've been thinking a lot about my true feelings towards her. I don't want to lie to myself, instead, I want to just follow my feelings, and what is supposed to happen will happen.

"What time is it?" I heard Jihyo mumble in her morning voice as she rubbed her eyes lazily.

"About 7 in the morning," I answered, looking at the clock hanging on the wall.

She nodded and sat up, dragging herself out of bed as she prepared for work. I should get a job too, but Jihyo won't let me. It's for my safety, she says. I looked at her as she rushed around, grabbing her suit (yes she wear suits and it looks flawless), her purse, her computer, and then carefully applying her light makeup.

I strolled downstairs to heat the sandwich we bought in a store yesterday after our walk in the park.

-

"I'll get going now!" She yelled, grabbing a sandwich and quickly putting on her heels, then rushing out. I sighed. Another day in this house. I'm pretty used to being alone already, but recently, I've been praying that Jihyo's gonna get a few days off so we could spend some time together. The weekends doesn't seem to be enough.

-

I waited for her in a never ending cycle of eating, watching TV, Instagram, Facebook, Youtube, and then staring at my phone waiting for a notification.

Finally, the door clicked and I shot up from the sofa, running to the door.

I swung it open and smiled brightly when I saw her.

"You're back!" I hugged her tightly.

"Can't breathe," She laughed, patting my back.

I let go of her and closed the door. She lifted the Chinese food she bought and walked towards the counter while I happily followed her.

Both of us sat down and I immediately dug into the food. I love Chinese food, for your information. Scooping up the last bits, I looked up, checking if Jihyo's eating, but instead, I found her gleaming eyes locking with mine. I froze for a second before averting my sight back to my food.

"Eat," I said, chewing.

She obeyed, I could tell by the sound of her chopsticks clinking against the bowl.

I looked at her finish her food in silence, and helped her with the trash once we're done.

"You should go rest," I said, washing our utensils. "You must be tired after work,"

"Thanks!" She smiled and walked to her room.

"Stay..." I mumbled, realizing that I just let her in her room, which means that I probably won't see her until lat at night, when she comes out for more water or a late night snack.

"What did you say?" She asked, turning towards me.

I said stay.

"N-Nothing..." I stuttered.

"I'll go up first, just go to my room if you need anything," and with that, she walked up the stairs.

*Youngjae's POV*

I stayed in my room, writing a song. I was going to write a few paragraphs, like a diary, but I decided to write a song after getting inspired by a few artists.

I still can't believe it

That when I open my eyes you aren't there

Even though It'll be hard my memory from that time

When I see it later even if I empty out all the sad memories

I am always drowned in the thoughts of you

I get exhausted but I look for traces of you again

You have to stay well don't even get sick

The way you always smile don't ever lose that

If it ever get's hard you can comeback to me

I am here like always here for you

I will never leave

-

"Youngjae?" I felt her shaking me gently.

"Mm?" I answered, too tired to open my eyes.

"I'll get going now, breakfast is on the counter," She told me and left my room.

Here comes another day of boredom.

I dragged myself down to the kitchen and grabbed my sandwich, eating lifelessly.

I swear I'm not alive.
