It was early in the morning when their manager woke them up for their performance in Inkigayo. Everyone was ready. Their make up, their clothes, their microphones and their confidence, all they need to do was to wait for their turn. While waiting, Seungcheol was scrolling through his photos of him and Hyejin. Sighing everytime when he sees a picture of them together taking a cute selfie.

"Hyung," Hoshi called.

"Hey," yet Seungcheol didn't looked up.

Hoshi sat beside Seungcheol and peeked at the photos, after realizing what Seungcheol was scrolling through for the past few hours, Hoshi's face shows sadness as he pouts at Seungcheol.

"I thought you already moved on." Hoshi's eyes widened as he stares at Seungcheol, who leaned his back against the wall.

Seungcheol sighs,"I don't know anymore. We were so happy back then... I just don't know.." Seungcheol whispered as he slowly leaned his head on Hoshi's shoulder while tears is visible on his eyes, Hoshi noticed and caressed Seungcheol's head softly.

"You just need to accept the truth, if she doesn't love you anymore, just move on and if there's a chance she'll come back, I'll approve." Seungcheol's head shots up and looked at Hoshi confused.

"Why? The others hated Hyejin now after the break up." Hoshi shrugged.

"I know Hyejin well and she will never hurt someone, especially you. She would always talk to me about you and it made me smile that she loves you so much." Hoshi smiled.

"How can you say that? She left me with a letter behind."

"Becau-"

"Seventeen, stand by.."

"I think we need to go now. Let's talk about this later." Hoshi stood up and fixed his clothes. Seungcheol stood up and placed his hand on Hoshi's shoulder.

"Just tell me. I'm sure it's not that long." Seungcheol eagerly said, waiting impatiently for Hoshi's answer.

"I'll tell you later." Hoshi quickly said and left. Seungcheol sighed one last time before joining the others on stage.

After the performance they left the building, trophy in hand. Since they had their win, the manager decided to let them eat whatever they want in a restaurant as a gift.

Everyone was talking and had some fun while ordering, aside from the manager that can't think straight because of their loudness.

Their time at the restaurant was fun but unfortunately they have leave. Everyone went back to their dorm and slept for their next schedule tomorrow.

These events of their life kept repeating. Hyejin stayed in America to live her life peacefully while Seungcheol continued his career.

But Hyejin kept thinking twice, if she would come back home to Korea or save the large amount of money that was given to her and stay in America. These thoughts got her thinking so many times that she then made up her mind.

Will she go home or stay and save the money?
