"I got promoted"
-------

Jinyoung never knew that the simple sentence that supposed to bring happiness could be very frustrated.

It's been a month since Jaebum left the house to Seoul, to run the company's branch there. It's been a month Jinyoung slept by himself. It's been a month Jinyoung learnt on how to bake a delicious pie, and it's been a month he tried to turned down Jackson's approaches and tried to stay loyal to his husband; although he failed sometimes.

Yugyeom's entering his 7th month inside his mommy's warm tummy as he started to get more active on kicking the womb, especially when he heard his dad's vinyl being played by his mommy when he cooked for both of them.

It's almost dinner time, Jinyoung put the bowls on the table, sitting there by himself, staring at the empty chair accross him. "I miss you"

Ding

Jinyoung heard a notification from the phone in the other room and him being in a state of missing his husband, walked towards the livingroom and turned on the phone to type the password and opened the messanger.

It's Jackson.

"What is it this time?" Jinyoung sighed as he opened the message.

Jackson
Hey babe

You
Don't babe me, Jackson. What do you want?

Jackson
Are you free tonight?

You
No..

Jackson
Why? Don't you want to see me? I miss you 😭

You
We met yesterday, Jack. I'm tired I wanna take an early sleep tonight.

Jackson
Wouldn't it be better if I'm there to cuddle with you?

You
No thanks. I'm fine. Goodnight Jackson.

Jackson
Well... next time then.
When will you come to the house again and cook with Mark?

Jinyoung?

Jinyoungie?

Babe?

Alright. Goodnight !
Read 7.05 p.m

Jinyoung put his phone down as he sunk himself in to the couch, watching the phone screen dimmed down.

Yes, he met Jackson yesterday. Jinyoung had his cooking lesson with Mark and Jackson was caught staring at him for quite a long time and not just once or twice. He wanted to be there to taste the food, he said.

Jackson gave compliments on how delicious Jinyoung's dish was instead of giving it to his very own wife, Mark.

Jinyoung got up and took the phone with him, walked back lazily to the dining room and sat there, only to stare at the cooling down meal.

"Take care, Jinyoungie. I love you"  those words kept on repeating in his mind as he missed Jaebum so much that it started to give constant pain to his heart.

He glanced to the clock above the fridge, it showed the time 7.30. "Almost 8" he whispered. Jaebum called everyday at 8 p.m. He would ask about Jinyoung's condition, about his angel Yugyeom, told his wife he missed him everyday, told him how the bed feels cold without the presence of his Jinyoungie next to him, emptiness in his arms because he had no one to hold for the rest of the night, and he also told him to be patient till the end of the month because he would be home at that time.
