"Never regret something that once made you smile"

Tuesday 5 p.m (April 1st, 2014)

Xiumin entered the room. It's been exactly a month since he last came. 

"It's been a while"

"I was really busy with all the tests. Sorry," He apologized.

"You don't need to apologize. I understand."

He sat down and realized that the chair was new.

"Did you change the chair?" He asked.

"Yeah. How did you know?"

"It feels different," He replied.

He didn't even know how he knew that the chair was new.

"So have you been talking to people?"

"No," He shook his head.

"Why is that?" 

"I was too busy," He told her.

"To me, that sounds like an excuse..."

He was shocked and went into deep thoughts. What she said might be true... I've been escaping from reality.

"You might be right," He sighed.

He's been trying to talk to people, but when he tries bad thoughts control over him. The fear takes over him and the past keeps haunting him.

"I am sorry if that sounded rude, but it's time for you to take a step forward."

He gave out a small smile and nodded. 

"Who is the lucky girl you told me about last time?"

"She's really cute and nice," He blushed.

She smiled at his reaction. She was glad that he finally found someone who he could really depend on. 

"I've been talking to her for a while now, and we became really close," He smiled at the thought of her.

"Do you have any plans on confessing?"

"I don't know..." He shrugged.

He never thought of confessing. He doesn't think that he deserves anyone.

"I think that she's a good match for you"

"Huh?" He was shocked.

"You deserve someone like her"

He was really dumbfounded. It was as if she read his mind. In the other hand, she had no idea why his face looked so shocked. Xiumin cleared his throat.

"Do you like anyone?" He asked.

"Me?"

"Yes, you," He replied.

"There's no one that doesn't like anyone"

"You like someone?" He asked.

She smiled and nodded.

"I did not expect that. But sometimes people say that they don't like anyone," He said.

"Well, they might not like someone from school or workplace. They might like someone like a celebrity"

"Or they might not realize their feeling toward someone"

He realized that sometimes she might have problems too. She seemed to always have deep thoughts. 

*Knock Knock*

"Who's out there?"

"It's me," Someone said.

"I think I should leave. Right?" Xiumin looked at her.

She nodded and Xiumin stood up. He opened the door leaving the room. His eye met the person standing outside and that gave him chills. The boy entered the room and closed the door behind.

He walked down and met Baekhyun again.

"I didn't see you go upstairs," Baekhyun blinked his eyes.

"You weren't there," Xiumin explained.

"I was probably in the bathroom," Baekhyun shrugged.

"Well... Bye," Xiumin left the building.

"Hm..." Baekhyun looked at Xiumin's back.
