Something close to home

Namjoon has been feeling down for a while now. For the past week he had been trying not to show it but it seems like the girl finally caught on to his feelings.

His head rests on the wooden table in the dining room, gaze fixed on the ocean beyond the walls of her home.

EunAe knows that longing gaze a little too well. It is the gaze of someone who is missing his home. But what can she do to help?

After thinking it over for a while, an idea finally comes to mind, and with a smile, the girl quietly reaches for her phone.

It's a bit late but they should be able to make it in time.

"Namjoon." She softly calls out, the boy humming in response without moving a muscle.

"Come on." She says offering her hand, the boy barely lifting his head to look at her.

"Where to?" He asks raising a brow.

"You'll see."

"Okay then." He says finally agreeing, slowly getting up to put his shoes on.

Throughout their walk, the boy mostly remains silent, his hands on his pocket as he looks up at the sky, which seems to go along with his mood for the day.

As they near the place, EunAe steps in front of him and extends her arms.

"Close your eyes." She says taking his hand, smiling when he covers them with his free one. "No peeking."

"No peeking." He repeats tryouts no his best not to smile, growing curious as to what the girl wants to show him.

Around him, Namjoon can hear excited murmurs and the sound of children running around, along with something else that he can't quite place his finger on.

"Okay, you can open them now." EunAe says, gently chewing on her lower lip as she waits for his reaction.

The boy's eyes wander around the place in amazement, the various lights and sounds something he hadn't seen before. Unlike outside, the place where they are is quite fresh and a bit humid, the darkness illuminated by small lights on the ceiling along with long panels of blue on the sides.

"Where are we?" He asks.

"An aquarium." The girl says looking at the floor. "I know it's not the same as being home, but I hope it helps some."
