Before I Go

"Baekhyun-hyung is sick, Chanyeol. He's dying. And you know why?" Kyungsoo asked.

"W-why?" He asked nervously.

Kyungsoo scoffs, "Are you really that dense, Park Chanyeol? It's because of you! He's sick because of you! His life is in great danger, why? BECAUSE OF YOU!"

Chanyeol avoids Kyungsoo's eyes.

If he were to describe one thing he's feeling right now, it's probably guilt.

He feels guilty because he left his husband without any reason at all. He feels guilty because, because of him, his husband's life is in danger.

If he could recall everything that happened on that night correctly, they were just happily playing Monopoly when Baekhyun suddenly mentioned the word Taeyeon.

For the longest time, Chanyeol is jealous at Taeyeon because if it's not for him, Baekhyun wouldn't know Taeyeon in the first place.

Chanyeol and Taeyeon were childhood friends, and if it weren't for Chanyeol's stupidity, she wouldn't know Baekhyun.

Back during their highschool days, Chanyeol knew that his bestfriend, Taeyeon, has her eyes on their petite senior.

"Chanyeol-ah, Baekhyun-sunbae is so handsome!" Taeyeon told Chanyeol. While Chanyeol, on the other hand, is struggling to find the thing that's making their sunbae special.

He suddenly remembered the Baekhyun that saved his life when they were 11. He was far different back then.

Irritated, Chanyeol just forced a smile and said, "Yeah... he's really handsome," even though ge really wanted to say, "what's special about him anyway?" But he knew that if he said that, his and Taeyeon's friendship would be over.

Because the love of Taeyeon should also be the love of Chanyeol.

One day, he just saw his bestfriend crying while her head was resting on her knees.

"Taeyeonnie? What happened?" He approached her.

Taeyeon looked at Chanyeol with red, puffy eyes.

"I saw someone..."

"Someone...?" Chanyeol raised a brow. What is she talking about?

"I saw a girl kissed Baekhyun on the cheek," And with that, Chanyeol wants to laugh so hard right then and there. But he needs to compose himself. He shouldn't laugh at his bestfriend.

Why would Baekhyun let a girl kiss him? He knows him too well. He isn't straight.

"Hey... shh.. don't cry.. maybe the girl you're talking about is just a fan and Baekhyun-sunbae just gave her a fanservice," Chanyeol said, trying to stop her devastated bestfriend from crying.

"Psh, fanservice my ass. It looked liked he really enjoyed it," Taeyeon rolled her eyes and wiped her tears.

"I'm sorry that you have to see me like this, Chanyeol. I just realized that I look so pathetic," She scoffed, and Chanyeol wasn't amused at her attitude.

Projects, homeworks, group works, exams. Probably the worst things that ever existed.

For now, Chanyeol has to finish his Biology report and finish their script for their play.
