"Where is she?" I immediately asked Taehyung as we went back to the dance room.

He was currently sitting at the sofa where Chaeyoung used to sleep earlier. Her things were still here, but there were no signs of her.

"Didn't she went to you?" He asked while playing with Yeontan.

My brows furrowed. "No." I replied.

Exactly after I replied, Jin hyung entered the room. He was scratching his head as he sat down beside Taehyung and played with Yeontan too.

"Have you seen her?" I asked him, pertaining to my wife. I received a shrug from him but he answered anyway.

"She borrowed my car. I don't know where she'll go but return my baby to me."

I closed my eyes. Why does she have to run away from me?

"She overheard you guys talking." Jin added then looked at me in disbelief.

Upon hearing his words, I immediately grabbed Chaeyoung's things without looking back. I could hear them calling me but I ignored them.

I need to talk to her now. And knowing Chae, she'll just stay at home since she hates bothering her friends.

How did I knew those? Ryujin told me everything I should know about her while she was getting ready.

I immediately revved the engine to life as I got inside my car and drove like crazy to get to her as soon as I can.


"Thanks." I ended the call and looked at the door infront of me.

I've been standing here for almost 10 minutes now, but I'm still contemplating whether to open the door or wait for her to get out.

Just when I was about to knock, it bursted open and it was Ryujin who greeted me. "I've been watching you since you got here. Come in." She giggled and pulled me in.

"She's in your room." I silently nodded and went upstairs away. Hearing Ryujin say the words your room sent shivers down to my spine. She even stressed the word 'your' and it felt so good to hear those though.

I just hope this doesn't end. But I know it's not possible.

I knocked softly and twisted the doorknob slowly. Luckily, she left it unlocked.

She was inside the thick comforters while the TV was turned on. I smiled, maybe she's just tol tired.

"Tell him to leave now, Ryujin. I'll just send his things to him." I heard her sniff which alarmed my whole being.

"Why the hell are you crying?" I jumped into the bed and removed the comforters around her.

There, I saw her swollen eyes and red nose. She was also holding a tissue paper and there were some tissue papers scattered around her too.

I held both her shoulders and looked at her in the eyes. She kept looking away so I held her face instead and made her look into me.
