Jae's lonely life seems stable and dull until he finds out his son has run away from his boyfriend to fulfill some mysterious plan that might break two people meant to be or bring two back together.
"I don't... love you," he pressed out Jaemin's hand disappeared from his palm.
There was a silence, silent tension when Jaemin got up. He slammed the door, the silence becoming scary. Renjun felt the pain right there, ready to explode, he jumped from the bed walking down the stairs watching how Jaemin slammed his things on the backseat of the car then jumped behind the steering wheel.
"Renjun what's oh..." Lucas fell into the hall while Renjun saw Jaemin starting the car, driving off, the lights of the car disappearing from the driveway into the darkness.
"Jaemin!" shouted Renjun sobbing louder. "Jaemin please come back! I love you!" he fell on the front stairs shouting as Jaemin wasn't able to hear or to turn back.
"Renjun what have you done?"
"I had to, I had you," Renjun got up then stumbled to the kitchen, but his legs became too weak to carry him, the pain in his belly exploding so rapidly he fell one the floor screaming.
"What's up?" asked Jungwoo falling into the kitchen where Lucas was kneeling next to Renjun who was shivering like in agony.
He was in tears, his body repeating to the broken heart.
"Call someone I'm dying, I'm freaking dying! Lucas call help!" he was begging and shouting, but Lucas only grabbed his hand in his huge palm squeezing it, tears rolling down his face.
"Jungwoo bring Renjun's pills! They're on his bedside table, quick!" he shouted. "What have you done?"
"I had to, I had to," repeated Renjun like in a trance till Jungwoo came back, till Lucas forced him to drink the pills down, he fell back on the floor screaming, screaming so loudly until he stopped, not able to give out any noises, he only felt when Lucas lifted him up carrying to the couch, lying him down then covering with a blanket.
"Lucas will Renjun be ok?" asked Jungwoo in worry.
"I don't know," Lucas was sad, he was waiting there still holding Renjun's hand, when Renjun was lying, small tears leaving his eyes, the couch still carried Jaemin's scent, but there was no more Jaemin, yes, yes. Jaemin's hands that were better than every painkiller, a heeling to his nightmares, no more Jaemin's kisses or everything. It was his choice, but it hurt so much, far more than what he has imagined, he wasn't even sure if he will survive it.
"Jaemin please, please come back, I don't mean it," he was whining to the silence of the room again and again when he cuddled to a pillow wishing to forget, while he wished nothing more than his boyfriend back.
The morning was gray and foggy again, Lucas had brought him sandwiches, some hot tea, asked him to eat, but Renjun wasn't able to get up, he wasn't able to dress up, but he needed to be ready at 1 pm to play happy, to play Gian's boyfriend when Taeyong comes. Needed o tell her that they're together. Will he be able to kiss her, just for Taeyong to see, although he shouldn't right, he shouldn't, yet it was the only option left. Instead of preparing himself he was lying on the couch watching Jaemin's photos in his phone, their photos all so painful.
Where was Jaemin now.
"Renjun please eat," he heard Jungwoo's soft voice, as Lucas had sent the boy to convince him for sure.
"I can't right now Jungwoo," he whispered.
"Why is Jaemin not here?" Jungwoo became sad.
"He won't come back ever," Renjun bit his lips.
"But he loves you like Lucas loves me," Jungwoo sat on the couch next to him.
"Not anymore," Renjun turned to the gray wall of fog behind the window.
He was still wishing Jaemin would appear out of this fog.
"Please don't be sad," Jungwoo smiled to him.
"Mr. Jaehyun a cried out boy in here!" the secretary fell into his office.
Jaehyun had been watching the sales report of Chenle's latest album, the boy had made the fifth win on a national music show, his career blooming, but now all his thoughts about his young superstar faded hearing the woman's voice.
"What boy? What happened? My Junie?" he asked running out of the office but stopped abruptly spotting Jaemin.
"Jaemin what happened, is Junie..." asked Jae all hair on his body crumbling his hart speeding up.
"Jae he broke up with me," whispered Jaemin breaking out in tears cuddling to him falling into his arms sobbing in his shoulder.
Jae froze.
"What? Why?" she was repeating unable to believe. "But it makes no sense, he loves you," said Jae unable to process the shock he received.
"No he doesn't he met some girl," sobbed Jaemin.
"What gifl, that makes absolutely no sense," Jae was standing there caressing the boy's back totally unable to believe.
"Jaemin calm down speak to me, tell me what happened," he said opening his office letting the boy in, taking a lot of tissues handing to him.
"He is so stubborn I hate him sometimes and so stupid. His stupid ideas," hissed Jaemin drying his face sitting down on one of the office chairs.
"What ideas again? Is it about the plan that made him fun away a week ago?" asked Jae stunned.
"It's all about it," spat Jaemin out bitterly. "But how can he... how can he believe I'll be able to live without him," he began to bite his nails his hands trembling.
Jae has never seen Jaemin in that kind of state, Jaemin has always been proud, strong, perfectly elegant, not just a broken cried out boy who seemed as fragile as his Junie.
"I actually don't believe he'll be able to live without you too, I hope," whispered Jae realizing he has no idea what was going into Renjun recently.
"I just hope... I hope it's what I think it is, if I'm right I'll personally kill him for bing so stupid," muttered Jaemin sniffing loudly.
"What afe you talking about, because I have no idea?"
"It's the thing Jae I can't tell you about Renjun's plan," Jaemin shook his head.
"Jaemin how do you expect me to not to go insane ffom woffy, if I have no idea what's going on," asked Jae.
"He'll manage, in all his stupidity he's super clever, so he'll manage," said Jaemin. "I just hoped it's because of the plan and not..." his voice cracked, he bit his lip but new tears rolled down his cheeks. "Jae what if... what if he really doesn't love me?" he asked raising a pair of tears filled eyes at him.
