Nerd // Chanhun

Chanyeol

Chanyeol's POV:

It was a new refreshing morning. The morning breeze entering my slightly opened window. The chirping of the birds filling in the quiet atmosphere.

I rubbed my eyes as I stood up. I stretched out my body and got ready for the day.

————————
I arrived to my first class and instantly, I saw that Sehun wasn't in his seat. Matter of fact, he wasn't there at all. I walked over to Baekhyun who had his head engulfed in his arms.

I touched his back gently and he lifted his head.

"Hey Chanyeol..." Baekhyun responded, sounding dead.

He had eye bags under his eyes and tear stains on his cheeks and on the shoulder area of his school uniform.

"What's wrong?" I asked him, sounding concerned.

He suddenly dropped his head back down into his arms and just sat there quietly. I sat next to him awaiting for an answer, but unfortunately I didn't get one. The teacher walked in and told us to get ready for the day.

"Byun Sehun?" He asked aloud while taking attendance.

"He's not here today." Baekhyun said in a deep voice.

"Baekhyun. Can you tell me why Sehun, your brother, isn't here? Again?" She asked Baekhyun sternly.

"H-He... He won't be coming to school for a while." Baekhyun replied quietly, his voice was low and he put his head back into his arms.

She just nodded and continued teaching. The day was normal, but it didn't seem correct. Sehun is a "nerd" who would practically have an aneurysm if he had not attended school. But this prolonged for two days now. As I was pondering on the thought, I began to worry.

"What did Baekhyun mean by 'He won't be coming to school for a while?' Is something wrong? Did something happen?" I continued to question a lot of things. My mind filling up with thoughts and concerns.

I had to ask Baekhyun what was going on with him, and Sehun.

It was break period and I decided to walk over to him.

"Hey Baekhyun, can we talk?"

Suddenly, he passed me a note that was folded four times. It had a few wrinkles on it and was obviously crumpled.

I read it silently and became shocked of the situation.

"Dear anyone that finds this letter,

I will be gone for a while. In my opinion, I don't want to come back to where I am departing from. I am going to try to find my true meaning in life. I am going to clear my thoughts by leaving all the drama that has been occurring lately behind. I am leaving this letter to assure you/all that I am alright, and that I was not kidnapped.
Please don't look for me, nor contact me. If you do, I will simply deny and continue with my little vacation.

If this is Baekhyun who finds this,

Baekhyun. My brother. I love you. I'll be back. Don't worry about me alright? Do great in school okay? Saranghaeyo.

If this is Chanyeol who finds this,

Chanyeol. Park Chanyeol. Please do not look for me. I love you so much that I can't bear the thought of being rejected. I am leaving not because of you. But I am leaving to find who I really want to be. Sarang.

Love, Byun Sehun.

————————
My heart ached for Sehun. I didn't know that was how much he was hurting. Ever since I met him. Everything changed. I didn't care about my reputation, I tried to actually study, I did everything.

That would supposedly please Sehun...

Because....

I love Sehun.....
