"daddy! higher!" small changbin squealed as he was being picked up and lifted in the sky.

as he was held higher, cute and uncontrollable giggles came out of his mouth.

the man manly laughed and spun the little changbin around; the fun was endless.

"changbin! hunny! the cookies are done!"  a woman came out and was now in the garden where the two were.

"yay cookie!" changbin exclaimed as the man set him down on the ground.

he rushed to where the cookies were with his tiny feet.

she chuckled and kneel down so that she was eye levelled with changbin.

the boy quickly grabbed two huge cookie and was practically running around the garden.

.

"i'm sorry to tell you but your husband is no longer here." 

the woman dropped to the floor and began sobbing.

a now middle aged changbin felt as if the whole world had just ended.

although, he didn't cry...

he kept it strong...

but how long is that going to last?....

-

a sudden gasp filled the whole room.

changbin bolted up from his bed, panting deeply.

sweats were everywhere.

when his breath was finally normal, he looked at the alarm clock that was on the bed stand to check what time it was.

and he was definitely surprised to see something unexpected.

he had never slept in before.

his eyes widened in shock and immediately got out of his bed.

right now was 8:00am and school starts at 8:15am.

he only have 15 minutes to get to school but from his house to school on a bus is 30 minutes.

every bus comes 10 minutes after the previous one and around this time, he knew that one was gone by now.

changbin didn't know what to do anymore, running to school takes a longer time than the bus and the boy have no energy for that.

after he rushed out of the bathroom, he quickly got changed and walked down to the kitchen to grab something simple to eat.

'ugh, where's my phone? oh well.' he had no time to look for his phone right now.

when he was finally out, so many questions were filling inside his mind.

he stopped moving and froze on his spot for a few good minutes.

just standing there was going to lose all of the minutes he have left but knowing the guy who had never been late before was completely reasonable.

'should i just skip school?' he thought and was about to turn back when he heard a voice calling from a distance.

"changbin hyung!!" the said older whipped his head around to see who was calling his name.

despite him knowing whose voice it belonged to, he still turned around in curiosity.

his eyebrows rose up in confusion as he wondered why he was here.
