*Listen to Killing Me by Ikon while reading this chapter *

Tabby's POV:

It has been a week since I came home and nothing is getting any better. I cry what seems like all the time. I try to go out and do things like normal, but when I go out, I just want to go back inside and curl into a ball. I am just not feeling the happiness that I felt before or how I felt with Bobby. My grandma is still not happy with me and is hardly speaking to me. At this point, I feel like I just should have stayed in Seoul. I miss him so much.

When I wake up, I slowly get up and get dressed. I pick out a black t-shirt and black skinny jeans. I make my way downstairs and into the kitchen. I make myself some toast and I sit down at the table. I pick up my phone and my lockscreen lights up. I look at the picture of me and Bobby and I instantly put my phone down. The lump forms in my throat and tears freely fall down my face.

My grandma walks in and I can see her roll her eyes at me. I try my best to wipe my tears away, but it doesn't work. They will not stop. She goes over to the counter and stops. She suddenly turns around to look at me.

"When is this going to stop?" She asks me. I look up at her.

"I'm sorry." I tell her. Grandma shakes her head.

"You're bloody crazy!" She says loudly. My eyes go wide.

"How am I crazy?" I ask her, trying to stay calm.

"You are constantly crying over a boy who you knew for a week!" She says.

"I love him, grandma." I tell her. She shakes her head.

"How can you? It was a week!"

"We spend every minute together."

"Oh did you?" She asks. I nod my head.

"Yes." I reply.

"Did you have sex with him? Is that why you're like this?" She asks. My eyes go wide again.

"No! He's not like that." I tell her. She shakes me head.

"All boys are." Grandma mutters. I suddenly slam my hand against the table. She jumps slightly.

"How would you know? You haven't met him!" I tell her loudly.

"You're right and I hope to never meet him." She says and walks over to the other side of the table. She sits down and looks at me.

"I thought you would want me to be happy." I say.

"I do.. Just not with someone from across the country."

"I can't believe this." I mumble and look down at my toast, which I totally forgot about.

"Me neither. My pride and joy met some boy and then fell in love after a week." I roll my eyes.

"I honestly thought you would like him." I tell her.

"Who is he? What does he do?" She asks.

"His name is Bobby and he is in the kpop group, Ikon." I tell her and a small smile actually appears on my face.

"Oh, so he's a performer who will always be busy. That's great for you." She says sarcastically. My smile instantly turns into a frown. I look her straight in the face.

"You obviously have no idea what is good for me." I say softly. She frowns. I stand up and start walking towards the front door.

"Tabby.." Grandma trys to stop me.

"I'm going for a walk." I tell her. I hear her sigh before I walk out the door. I start walking on the sidewalk to wherever it takes me. I look around and I start thinking about Seoul.

I truly was happy there and it seems like I was happiest there. I honestly regret even coming home now. My grandma is the one I came home for and she doesn't understand how I feel. She is the one who I thought would understand me the most.

I look up at the sky and I feel a raindrop hit my forehead. Of course it's going to rain and I don't have an umbrella. I smile as I think about Bobby coming up to me with his umbrella that first day. The rain just starts pouring all over me and I just stand here, smiling.

"Maybe I should go home." I mutter to myself. I make my way back home in the pouring rain. I walk into my house and go straight up the stairs to my room. I go into my bathroom and stripe off my soaking wet clothes. I step into the warm shower.

Standing in the pouring rain made me more confident. When I get out of the shower I have to find the convidence to contact Bobby. He may be upset with me, but I can't do this anymore and I need him. I was hoping he would contact me first, but I know now that I need to be the first one to break this silence. I am done crying all the time and I'm done with living here. It is time for me to move.

I smile to myself as I step out of the shower. I dry off and put on a plain t-shirt and sweats. I walk into my room and go over to my bed. I sit down on it and pick up my phone. I open it up and go to my contacts. I open Bobby's up and then I just stare at it.

What if he doesn't want to talk to me ever again? I hurt him and I understand why he wouldn't, but I need him right now. I fall back onto my bed and I sigh.

"Tabby, you need him otherwise you will go crazy." I tell myself. I put my phone in front of my face and I sigh again. I need to do this otherwise I really will go crazy.

"Screw this." I mutter as I open my text messages and I put in Bobby's number.

'Bobby, we need to talk.'
