"You going home? I thought we're having dinner?" Taeyeon asked Baekhyun when she met him at the school's gate.

"I feel tired."

She scratched her head, she feels extremely hungry since she didn't ate lunch and only had oatmeal for breakfast.

"Mmmkay... How was your talk with Ji Eun?" She is sensing something off with him that made her asked this and it's not like she feels he was rejected.

"It's cool. She agreed." He just casually answered without looking at her. They are now walking to the parking lot.

Taeyeon only nodded and walked beside him. It was quiet. She didn't know what happened and why he looks so down all of a sudden. Did she do something wrong? All thoughts are coming inside her head.

"Baek..."

"I think you should go now," He countered way too early and now Taeyeon confirmed there is something wrong. "I-It's getting dark." He said.

"You won't drive me home?"

His lips parted for a while, like he was supposed to say something but he just chose not to say it.

"I'm sorry..." He looked down, "I just... I just feel tired today. I will call Suho to-"

"No, it's okay. I'll call him." She said, still confused what to feel. "You should go home. Make sure to text me when you're home." She said before giving him a smile.

He didn't smile back.

She awkwardly waved at him while walking away. She's confused. She doesn't know what to feel. She doesn't know what to think of right now. What did they talk about? What happened? Did she do something wrong?

All her thoughts got answered when she saw Ji Eun's tweets.

It's like... they talked deeper than she expected. But it's something she should be jealous about. She just wonders what exactly they talked about that made him feel so down.

"I'm telling you, he's not the type of person who'll just leave me like that." She thought she was okay but when she's now sharing her frustration with Suho through a call, she feels broken. Broken because Baekhyun seems to be broken too.

"I'm afraid he's hurting..." Her voice became little.

"Taeyeon... you and your worries..." Suho sounded hopeless.

"I can't stand him looking like that tomorrow on our practice, Suho."

"Then what will you do? You'll skip practice?"

"No. Not even an option. This actually made me want to be beside him even more."

Suho sighed, "I will make sure he's okay tomorrow, alright? Just so you could sleep." He said.

"You sure?"

"Mmm-hmm. You know I am reliable. Just please, sleep."

"Okay... Thank you, Suho. Goodnight."
