naturally, i panicked.
i mean, who wouldn't?
seoho told me to relax,
but i couldn't.
i roamed around the city,
looking around for you.
i passed the bench you usually sat on.
to my relief,
you were sitting there,
looking at the sky.
i decided to sit beside you,
staring at the sky along with you.
you looked at me
and smiled.
i asked you why you didn't text me
you answered,
"i couldn't go home.
i can't stand my family."
i decided not to ask you about your family
but i chose to stay next to you.
i held your hand in mine
and squeezed it reassuringly.
you didn't let go.
