Hakyeon glares at the younger girl who has the straw in between her fingers. It has been 15 minutes since their drinks arrived and Yeseul haven't show any interest to talk with him even she was the one invited Hakyeon for a lunch. Sanghyuk also was invited but too bad that busy guy had to catch a lunch with his client who happened to be an important one according to his secretary so he can't join Yeseul and Hakyeon. Well that's fine for the eldest since that was so normal. However, things become abnormal when Han Yeseul being unproductive and passive instead of being fussy over Hakyeon's latest drama. Normally when Hakyeon casted into a romcom movie, she would be all cringe and insulted him.

Well then, he had enough though and takes an initiative to step on her feet. What a normal way to get on someone's nerve, Cha Hakyeon.

"What?" Yeseul darts her eyes towards Hakyeon who had his eyes squinted. Okay this is very weird.

"Yah are you okay, kiddo? What happened with your talkative mouth?" Hakyeon leans forward and take a sip of his drink. He catch Yeseul rolls her eyes and glares back at the young lady while threatening that he would poke tge eyes out of the sockets.

"Nothing, oppa. Absolutely nothing," she can feel the eyes are still glued on her but Yeseul decides to ignore him. She was not being herself worried Hakyeon a lot. Even Sanghyuk called him and told Yeseul hasn't talked much even when they had dinner together. She didn't complained when Sanghyuk had to leave early and let her have dinner alone. Hongbin also said Yeseul always day dreaming even when they had meetings at the boutique. How can Hakyeon didn't worried about his friend.

"Yeseul-ah, you know you can count on me right? Plus do you know how many days you guys have left?" Hakyeon raised his right eyebrow, looking at Yeseul who seemed to have forgotten about something. He chuckles before scrolling his phone and show his calendar in his phone.

Shit. That's what Yeseul thought in her mind. She has totally forgot about the 3 months agreement yet she kept fooling around with Wonshik, acting like they're real lovers. Yeseul is totally speechless when she look at Hakyeon's calendar in disbelief. Even that guy marked the day and remember about their agreements. Now Yeseul has another incoming problems that might break her heart. Or maybe both heart. Yeseul remembers when they went to picnic together, Jejudo and also the fun time they had. How warm and perfect Wonshik was they were in each other's embrace.

When they only have not more than one month for each other

"I forgot about it," she mumbles.

"Its fine. But you didn't fall for him or doing something hanky panky with him right? 'Cause I know you won't," Hakyeon smiles and Yeseul give him a small smile too when she's about to reply, their food has come and cut her words.

"I didn't. Or maybe did," her voice sounds so low, sending thoughts to herself that Hakyeon might not heard her when the guy is actually did. Hakyeon knows Yeseul is a type of girl who will keep her promise and plays fairly. And he wanted to see, if she is brave enough to break her promise for this one guy named Wonshik and so does that Kim Wonshik. He will asked him the same question when they met later.

The weather is chilly outside and Jaehwan has no intention to go out as well. Plus, he already ditched his work for two days because of his headache suddenly worsen out of sudden and the image of a small boy, who surprisingly for Jaehwan comes into his dream. He was crying with both arms crossed over his head. The words 'please, no and help' are like mantra, he kept chanting over and over again. In that dream, the adult Jaehwan reach out his hand to help that poor boy, however he can't. He was terrified by an elder who has a scar on his face and he looks totally scary. What makes Jaehwan even scared, he had a PVC pipe on his hand and start beating the kid until he lost consciousness. Jaehwan heard himself scream on top of his lungs, shouting stop but no. Nothing stop the elder because he only heard his voice to himself.

"No. Please don't hit him. Appa... Please," sweats started to form on his forehead and Jaehwan began to mumble nonsense from his lips. His voice becomes louder and louder until Wonshik, who happened to be at his house because of worried ran to Jaehwan's bedroom. He's yelling with his eyes closed definitely new for Wonshik. "Hyung, wake up! Jaehwan-ah! Yah, Lee Jaehwan!" Wonshik softly pats his cheek and wipes the sweats on Jaehwan's forehead. He keeps repeating the deed until Jaehwan finally open his eyes slowly and began to notice his friend.

"Wonshik.... what are you doing here?" He asked and try to sit back even in his weak condition.

"Hyung, why don't you tell me you have a fever. Gosh you scared me. I'm here because you said you had a headache and I remembered when we're at the hotel. You look so in pain. And look! You're deadly sick. Gosh, I help you up and let's get to the hospital," and here comes the naggy Wonshik that Jaehwan doesn't like to listen. He was about to complain but Wonshik shut him up with a towel on his face. He even help Jaehwan to run his bath and wait for him to get dressed.

Half and hour driving to the hospital, Jaehwan keep silent to himself and staring outside the window, thinking of what he saw in his dream. He was thinking, was the poor and crying boy is him when he was smaller? Is that why when he asked his parents about his baby photo, his mother keep telling him that she lost it when they moved. Jaehwan was speechless, yet he let out a heavy sigh. There are so many thing in his mind and he doesn't know which one should he start thinking first. He was really curious about it and Jaehwan doesn't think asking his parents would be appropriate at this moment. He just got back from Jeju and if he came back again, his parents would be suspicious.

Wonshik help Jaehwan to walk until to the doctor's room because he said he wanted to be alone with the doctor. At first Wonshik was against it, but when Jaehwan started to be grumpy and about to yell that he's not a child, Wonshik knows he must stop his act right then. And here he is, waiting for Jaehwan while playing games that was installed in his phone. He got it without Jaehwan knew because the elder must be feeling competitive and keep stealing his phone to play the game, instead of get the game in his phone himself until he feels someone taps his shoulder

"Kim Wonshik?" Wonshik heard the familiar voice but he somehow can't remember who and when. However as he turn his head towards the latter, he felt blood rush on his face.

"Rachel?".
