Jeno ran somewhere. He didn't know where his legs were taking him but he recognized his surroundings. He stopped running and placed his hands on his knees to catch his breath. "Why am I here?" Jeno asked himself. He went to the door and knocked on it. The owner opened the door and smiled, "Hey Jeno. What are you doing here?" "I honestly have no idea" "Okay. Well come inside and we'll talk" "Thanks Jungwoo"

Meanwhile Jaemin was waiting for Jeno to arrive. It was getting late and he had no idea where Jeno was. He didn't go after him because he knew if had had run after him, they would have broken up. He was so scared. "I knew you would leave me. That's why I didn't want to tell you" Jaemin thought. He had to work the next day so he couldn't stay up waiting for Jeno to arrive.

He made food just in case Jeno was hungry when he arrived. He left a small note that said "Eat up". That's it. No hearts, no smile, no 'I love you'. He went to bed sad, lonely, and afraid. He cried himself to sleep that night. It was something he hadn't done in a while. Ever since he started dating Jeno.

The next morning, Jaemin woke up and looked to his right to see if Jeno was there. But no Jeno was sleeping there looking all cute. He got ready and hoped to see Jeno on the couch. But there was no Jeno on the couch. There was no Jeno anywhere in the house. A knock was heard from the door and he instantly rushed to it, thinking it was the boy he loved so much. But it wasn't. Instead it was the landlord.

"You haven't paid your rent". "I'm getting my paycheck in a few days. Can I pay it then?" "Tomorrow or you get evicted" the landlord said and left. Jaemin made breakfast and sniffled. He hadn't known he was crying and then he lost his appetite. He left the house and made his way to work. " Everything is going so bad. At least I still have Wooyoung"

As he arrived to his job, he made his way behind the counter and started serving drinks. He wasn't his usual sunshiney self so he didn't get many tips or many customers. "I need you Jeno. Where are you?" The door then opened and Wooyoung appeared. "What's wrong?" He didn't want to keep it in anymore. He had to tell someone. "I think in a few hours, I might lose my home and my boyfriend" Jaemin said trying to fight back his tears.
