"My flight's about to leave, I have to go." Pulled away from Soobin and Huening Kai's hug. 

Huening Kai stared at him with wide eyes. "B-But. . . What about Yeonjun? Aren't you going to wait for him?"

Beomgyu narrowed his eyes, suddenly becoming somber. "He said he wasn't coming." 

Soobin and Huening Kai shared a glance, knowing that what Beomgyu was telling wasn't completely truthful. 

"I'm sure he wouldn't do that, let me call him-" Soobin started, getting his phone out before Beomgyu stopped him.

"No!" He bit his lips, hating the fact that he was lying to his two best friends. "He called me at the last minute and told me he couldn't make it," He opened his mouth again as Huening Kai and Soobin were about to question him again. "I really have to go. I'll miss the flight. . . Er,  bye!" Without another word, the 19-year old scurried away, not wanting to think or talk about Yeonjun.

"Do you really think he was telling the truth? I'm sure Yeonjun wouldn't do that. . . He cares a lot about Beomgyu." Huening Kai said, pressing himself against Soobin.

Soobin sighed. "I'm not sure, but everything about Yeonjun not coming sounded fishy." Right as they were walking towards the parking lot, they saw a very familiar 20-year old running towards them, his face desperate. 

"Soobin, Huening Kai!" He panted, his face becoming even more desperate. "W-Where's Beomgyu? I need to talk to him! Did he leave already?"

Huening Kai's heart sank, he knew something was wrong from the beginning. "Oh Yeonjun. . ." 

"His flight just left, he told us you weren't coming." Soobin said, staring at Yeonjun with wide eyes.

Yeonjun felt the color drain away from his face, his heart slowly sinking in a sea of sorrow. "No. . . This can't be right." He reached for his phone and called him.

Beomgyu felt his phone vibrate in his pocket, he reached for it noticing the name that he now despised. 

Instead of picking up immediately, Beomgyu stared at hi phone coldly before blocking the number. 

The phone stopped ringing. . . The person wasn't able to reach him anymore. . . He should feel delighted because of that, but. . . Why was he feeling so much pain? 

Beomgyu looked at his hand, three large cuts where hidden behind the thick bandage that covered them. With a broken heart, he remembered the horrible memory on how the calmest, most beautiful person in the world had become wrathful and full of fury.

Beomgyu's eyes watered as he heard the sentences ringing in his head: "You might experience pain and loneliness, but you'll overcome those feelings as you learn how to forgive those who you've loved the most."

Beomgyu sniffled, feeling a warm sensation wrap around him, comforting him as he covered his face when small tears began to fall. Oh Taehyun. . . He thought. You were right. . . You were so, so right. Soon, Beomgyu found himself crying. . .

Crying over the person he had once loved the most. . .
