somewhere else

"Y/n,"

my roommate, wendy, called for me

"What is it, Seungwan?" I yelled back as I pressed pause on my video game, but she didn't respond.

After waiting for a beat, i began to get annoyed at the lack of response, so i began to make my way out of my room and to our shared living room.

I was shocked to see her on the couch crying. Without hesitation, I rushed to her side and pulled her into a tight hug. Rubbing her back as she sobbed into the fabric of my sweater.

"Wan-ah, what's wrong," I asked, my brows furrowed. She pulled her head back from my chest and wiped her eyes, trying to gain her composure.

"My grandmother passed away." Before I could process what she said, she collapsed back into my arms. We stayed that way for hours. occasionally getting stories about how close Wendy and her grandmother were while she was growing up. I knew she was a big part of Wendy's life and was the one to push her to follow her dreams.

"I-I have to fly to Canada for the funeral." She finally said.

"I understand. How long will you be there?" I asked as I moved some stray pieces of hair out of her face.

She sat up straight and looked at me, "I don't know, I think I might have to stay for a while to help my parents. I am just worried because I don't think you'll be able to afford the rent for this apartment by yourself. We were barely squeezing by on my salary and your part-time income. "

I squeezed her hand reassuringly. "I'll be fine. just worry about yourself and your family for now, I can look into staying somewhere cheaper in the meantime, "

~Time skip 2 days later~

"I'm going to miss you, y/n." She hugged me for the 12th time, this one tighter than the others.

"I'll miss you too, Wannie." s we separated from our hug i reached into my bag and pulled out a small gift bag and handed it to her.

"What's this?" she asked, looking at me puzzled.

"Just a little something I got you for the flight." I had actually spent the last two days going to every store looking for this one thing I know she's been wanting for a long time.

She moved some of the tissue pepee to the side before she pulled pulled out a  book. I watched as her eyes lit up and began to sparkle with the tears she hasn'tbeen able to hold back in days. "Thank you, y/n. Thank you for everything. " she nearly knocked me over, giving me one last hug.

I held her tightly back. It hurts to know she's leaving for an indefinite amount of time, but it'd be too selfish to ask her to come back sooner than what she needs to grieve.

Our embrace was cut short by her flight being called over the speakers for departure."Bye y/n I'll call you when I land. please keep me updated on everything while I'm away,"
She smiled and waved as she yelled through the crowd.

"Ok, have a safe flight. I love you, Wan." I turned awa, feeling a heaviness wash over me as I walked away.

After dropping Wendy off at the airport with a bittersweet farewell, I drove home. I don't know why I started crying, maybe it was because I already missed her. All I knew was that I needed some sleep. I parked my car and made my way into the now too quiet house and crawled into bed, letting my eyes get heavy as I wished all of this was just a bad dream and that my dearest friend and roommate wasn't leaving let alone having to deal with a loss like that.
