The two boys spent their after dismissal with tutoring, Hanbin was looking at what was Jiwon was writting down on the little quiz that Hanbin wrote out. It was just a little way that to make sure that Jiwon was listening to him, he closed his eyes and was embraced by the darkness within his vision.

Hanbin just wanted this silence with Jiwon, he felt relaxed as he thought of nothing. His mind was blank, he just needed some silence but with someone next to him. Home had this aura of loneliness but here with Jiwon, he just felt at peace.

After a few minutes, Jiwon was done with the quiz and reviewed the answers to make sure that he didn't miss a question, he looked at Hanbin who seems to be sleeping while sitting down with his arms crossed. Jiwon guessed that he was tired from everything that's just happened.

Then a janitor came in the room and asked what Jiwon and Hanbin were doing, Jiwon said that they were having a tutoring session, the janitor politely asked him to wake up Hanbin and go home and left to clean another room.

But of course he had to wake up Hanbin, he needed to go the bus with him. Jiwon shook the boy and softly told him to wake up;

"Hanbinnie, wakey-wakey... we need to go home now, and you can check my paper when you get home." Hanbin groaned in frustration,

"Fine...." Hanbin sais groggily,and opened his eyes and stretched his arms,

They started packing up their stuff and after that they left the room together, as they where walking silence was rested between them. It wasn't a awkward nor tense silence, it was a comforting one.

As they walked, Hanbin looked at his red converses again, still unsure and in deep contemplation of that warmth that lingered in his chest. Hanbin was lost in his thoughts more likely to say, he was walking with his head sulking down, Jiwon noticed that Hanbin wasn't stopping and he was going to cross the road while the crossroad light was red, Jiwon ran to Hanbin as fast as he could, finally he reached Hanbin and grabbed his hand and pulled him away from the road just in time as as a car rushed through the road.

Hanbin felt the sudden harsh pull in his hand and then was pulled back, he suddenly felt the familiar firm chest of Jiwon.

Hanbin felt embarrassed, 'I owe Jiwon a lot at this point and we just met in the morning. No wonder why I wouldn't be able to have any lasting friendships, I'm too dependent.' Hanbin thought to himself again.

Jiwon held the boy tightly, then let go of Hanbin and looked at him, He noticed that Hanbin eyes were filled with doubt. 'What happened to Hanbin? Was something triggered in his mind?' Jiwon thought, he cupped Hanbin's cheek and caressed it with his thumb.

"Hanbinnie? Are you okay?" Jiwon asked worriedly, afraid of what will happen next.

Hanbin looked at Jiwon straight in the eyes, "I'm okay Jiwon... I just had way too much questions through in my head, that I don't know the answer to." Hanbin put his hand on where Jiwon put his hand on his cheek. "I usually knew the answers to them, but these questions were never taught."

Jiwon nodded, unsure what to say to Hanbin. "We're close the the bus stop, c'mon let's go!" Jiwon smiled at trying to make Hanbin smile,

It worked, Hanbin returned a small smile and wiped some tears off his eyes. "Okay."

Then the two boys walked together to the nearby bus stop, one chatting happily and one listening with a smile on their face.
