*Listen to Runaway by Bobby while reading this chapter*

Bobby's POV:

Watching her leave was probably the hardest thing that I have ever done. It was the worst pain I have ever felt. I truly hope that she is happy back at home with her grandma, while I am here just trying to get through each day.

It has been a week since she left and this week has been the slowest week ever. The days just drag by and never seem to end. It has been really hard for me to do anything. Ikon has been busy with everything going on and I try my best, but I'm not giving anything my all anymore. It's disappointing to our manager, my group members, and to myself. I have never been like this and everyone can see the difference in me. It's breaking all of us.

On the plus side, I did finish my mini album. Most of the songs on it are about Tabby because I finally got inspiration after she left. I really would like her to listen to it before I release it, but that will probably never happen. I just want to see her smile as she listens to what I wrote about her. I softly smile as I think about it. It really would make me happy to see that.

I sigh as I get out of bed. I have practice today, then a show tonight. I get dressed in a grey sweatshirt and black, ripped skinny jeans. I grab my phone and leave my room of the house Ikon shares. I left the hotel shortly after I finished my album. I did not want to be there anymore.

I walk outside and start walking. It is too nice of a day to take a cab. I look up at the sky and I start thinking of Tabby. She loved to look at all the sights around here. I wish she was with me now, holding my hand as I walked to practice.

I sigh softly as I look at the ground and walk up to YG. I walk inside and walk down the halls to our practice room. I stop in front of the door and slowly open it. I walk in and look around the room. All my group members are here already. They all look over as I walk in and they smile. I smile softly before joining them.

"We were worried you weren't going to come." Jay says. I smile.

"I'm here. I can't miss a practice." I tell them. B.I nods.

"We are glad you came." B.I tells me. I smile and turn around to start practice. It actually annoys me when they treat me like this. I am not that broken that I would miss anything we have going on. June looks over at me.

"You okay?" He asks. I nod.

"I'm fine." I reply. He gives me a look before looking straight ahead as the music starts.

We practice every song we will be performing tonight. We take breaks after every other song. June keeps looking over at me like he's not convinced that I'm okay. Yeah, I'm not convinced either, but I have to keep going otherwise I will go crazy.

We finish practice and we discuss tonight. We are all meeting at the venue and go over a few things when we get there. I start to walk out before everyone else when June catches up to me. I glance over at him as we walk.

"I know you're not okay." June states.

"Do you?" I ask him.

"I know you would rather not be here with us." He says. I look over at him.

"I wish you were wrong." I tell him. June frowns.

"Me too. You are not the same."

"I know."

"Have you heard from her?" He asks and I sigh.

"No June. I haven't." I say.

"I'm sorry Bobby." I shake my head.

"It's fine."

"Why don't you go see her?"

"We are too busy for that." I tell him and he slowly nods his head. He sighs too.

"I feel bad." June says quietly. I softly smile at him. I put my arm around his shoulder.

"Me too June. I wish this was easier." I say. We get outside and we both stop walking.

"I will see you at the show." June says. I nod and we part ways.

I get home and get into the shower. I get out a few minutes later and dry off. I put on the t-shirt and jeans I picked out. I fix my hair and get ready for tonight. I think about what June said. I wish I could just drop everything and go to her. I wonder if she even thinks about me. I look at the time and it's time to go. I grab my phone and go outside. I get a cab this time. The venue is way too far to walk from here. I sit and admire the city as it goes by. No wonder why Tabby liked doing this. Seoul is a city to admire.

The cab stops and I give the driver money before getting out. I walk into the venue and walk down the hall. I come around a corner and instantly spot my friends. I smile as I approach them. They all look behind them and they all smile too. Our manager smiles at me as I walk up to them.

"Glad you're here. I was about to tell them about tonight." Our manger says. I smile and I suddently feel my phone buzz. I take it out of my pocket and open it up. I stare at the message. This is what I needed right now. This has made my mind up.

'Bobby, we need to talk.'

I look around at all of my friends and our manager.

"I'm leaving." I blurt out to all of them. They all turn their heads to look at me.

"Right now?" Our manager asks. I nod.

"Yes I have somewhere to be." I look over at June and he slowly smiles. I look back at my manager and he doesn't look happy.

"You have a show to do." He says. I shrug.

"Sorry, but I'm leaving."

"Is this because of Tabby?" B.I. asks.

"If you leave right now you are done." Our manager threatens. I look around at everyone before turning around.

"Then I'm done." I reply and start walking away.

"Bobby!" They are yelling for me, but I am not turning around. I take my phone out and call the airport.

"Hello. I need a plane ticket for London.. tonight!" I say as I look at the address Tabby had left me. I'm going to find her.
