「📞」

I woke up one Sunday night with the ringing of my phone. I felt for it on the nightstand and forced my eyes open to see who was calling me at this time of the night.

Choi Beomgyu is calling...

My eyes widened. I quickly sat up and cleared my throat before taking the call. All the drowsiness in me drained out as soon as I felt the excitement surge all over. I didn't expect him to call at this hour.

"Hello?" I softly voiced.

A faint chuckle rang from the other line. "Hey, Y/N. Did I wake you up?"

"No, no. You're fine. What's up?"

"I can't sleep."

I rolled my eyes and giggled. "What a news."

"Just kidding. I wanted to talk to you. Is it fine?"

"Yes, I don't mind at all."

I heard a shuffle followed by his rapid breathing. I got up from my bed and walked to the balcony of my apartment for a better reception. The cool breeze lightly damped my face as I did. I heard him chuckle again.

"Look to your right." He said.

My eyebrows furrowed as he told me so. But I still did nonetheless. My eyes widened as I saw him waving at me. He, too, was in his balcony. He was holding his phone on one hand and a cup was placed on a small table beside him. I waved back energetically and cackled.

"Are we still going to talk through the phone?" I asked.

"Yeah. Don't hang up." He smiled at me.

I pulled out a chair and sat down. He did the same. We were facing each other, silent but I could swear that our eyes had spoken a lot of words that only us could understand.

"It's strange to see you inside your apartment tonight." I said, initiating a conversation. "Aren't you gonna go out?"

"No."

"Why not?"

"My girlfriend is inside." He cocked his head to the door and smiled.

I raised him a brow. "Then why are you calling me?"

"Because I got no one to talk to?"

"You just said that you've got your girlfriend with you, Beomgyu."

"She's already asleep. I didn't want to wake her up."

"Oh really?"

He laughed a bit. "Come on, Y/N. Don't you want to talk to me? I thought we're friends."

"It's not like I don't want to." I placed a hand on my hips. "But if your girlfriend wakes up and finds out, you'd be in trouble."

"Don't worry, she's kind and understanding."

Beomgyu dragged his chair closer to the railings to see me better. I did the same too. We were now literally just a few meters apart. I looked around awkwardly since the silence had started to envelope us again.
