We arrived

Again

Too fast for my likings

He seemed to hesitate

He was nervous

Standing there

Switching from one leg to another

"Jisung,"

I called out

I'm just wondering why

What is he hesitating about?

"Would you..."

I actually still don't know

If this is right

Should I?

What will father do?

He wouldn't do something like that with a person around, right?

Right?

His gaze was full of expectation

"Would you like to come up...? You know, get you something to drink, because the way back is going to take a while."

There was a weird spark in his eyes at this point

You are weird, Han Jisung

I don't know why I ask you all of these things

All these things you are willing to do for me

It's selfish of me

To ask you all of that

But still

I don't want my life like this

Is it okay...

To be a little selfish this time?

"Yeah, I'll take you up on that offer."

I didn't expect him to say yes

But still

I'm happy he did so

His smile was bright as always

It was cute


We went up to the apartment

And of course

Father had to scream out

"MINHO!"

I didn't hear his elephant steps

That was a relieve

But he might come up any moment

So I said to him

"A friend of mine is over, we'll be in my room."

It seems like he didn't bother

That's good

I'm good for tonight




We entered my room

And Jisung curiously looked around

I quickly closed the door behind me

Scared that he might show up any moment

I finally felt relieved

I guess today isn't such a bad day

I started to walk towards him

And pulled him into a tight hug

With my hands around his waist

I clung onto his shirt

"Thank you,"

I whispered out, hiding my face in his shoulder

His smell enveloping me

It was calming

He smelled nice

It was something I needed for a long time

I'm glad he didn't mind me

He hugged me back and snuggled his face in-between my neck and shoulder

His warmth

It felt nice

I liked it a lot

"No problem,"

Thank you, Jisung
