5.

Soobin checked his phone for any message from Yeonjun, frowning when he didn't get any. Yeonjun usually texted him almost every day. He waited for another five minutes and another minutes. He ruffled his hair in frustration, sitting properly with phone in hand. He decided to call Yeonjun but the older didn't pick up his phone. He looked at his phone, "Tsk! Why didn't you answer my call?"

He then went to the bathroom and took a bath, wearing his uniform and grabbing a toast in the dining table before going to the elder's house, only to find out that the other boy had gone to school already. "This is weird. He never leave me before."

Soobin walked to school in a deep thought. His mind was a mess, he didn't remember doing something wrong to anger the older. Besides, they were best friends since forever. If anything, Yeonjun would have said something.

He spaced out a lot during lessons. He kept on getting reprimanded from the teachers to focus in class. He sighed loudly when the recess' bell rang. He buried his face between his arms, mumbling something incoherently under his breath. His friends looked at him in worried.

"What's wrong, Soobin-ah? You don't look good." -Sanha asked, patting his back to get his attention. He then looked at Hyunjin when Soobin ignored him. Hyunjin shook his head and spoke gently, "It's okay if you don't want to talk about it. Just know that we are here if you need anything."

Both Sanha and Hyunjin went away to go to the cafeteria. Soobin lifted up his face, looking around and found out that he was alone. His phone vibrated as a message popped out on his screen.

From: Junnie

Binbin-ah...Sorry, I can't join you at lunch today. Something comes out.

Soobin sighed. Guess it was better to just stay here. He suddenly lost his appetite. He frowned again for the nth time already. Ahh... I don't know anymore. He closed his eyes and decided to catch on some sleep before recess ended.

The last class ended for that day as the Physics' teacher dismissed them and walked out of class. Soobin packed his things and got up, bidding goodbyes to his friends and went to the changing room for the soccer club. He quickly changed into his sport attire and forcefully stuffed all his belongings into the locker but his phone vibrated again, indicating a message came in.

From: Junnie

Can't go home with you. Class ends late today.

He put back his phone inside the locker without replying again and went to the field. He started to warm up to get ready. He didn't know how many times he messed up with the game that evening but the captain didn't get mad at him. The senior asked him to get some rest first before continuing the game because he looked a little pale.

Soobin wiped his sweat using the towel he brought, eyes looked around hoping to get a glimpse of the older. The moment he saw the sight of the elder's back, he felt like the time just stopped for a brief second. There he was, standing with a boy, probably older than him. Both were laughing while holding hands and those smiles were the reasons Soobin fell for the other boy but now it was no longer meant for him.

Soobin clenched his teeth hard enough that his jaw hurt. "Sunbaenim, can I go home now. I don't feel good." -Soobin spoke slowly, breath came out faster than usual. "Sure, you can. You look so pale too. Get some rest, okay." Soobin nodded his head and mouthed a small thank you before walking back to the changing room.
