Jeongin POV.

Once we got back to the house we were greeted by Mrs. Hwang. "Hey boys," (look, im gonna make this simple for you)

She got up from her spot on the couch and approached us. "how was your night? Are you guys getting along alright?" (Bars. Ok sorry I'll stop now)

Me and hyunjin just nod and she smiles. "Alright thats good. well its getting pretty late so you guys should get to bed, you've had a pretty big day jeongin." She smiled at me and I smiled back.

She dismissed us and walked away. Hyunjin started for the stairs and i followed.

I got to "my" room and walked in but before closing it all the way I waved to hyunjin and bid him goodnight and he did the same for me.

I closed the door and walked to the bed. I was never great with sleeping in new places alone. I always felt so out of place and homesick?

I got changed into pajamas and went to the bathroom to brush my teeth. After I was ready for bed I plugged in my phone and walked to the bed.

I sat at the edge of the bed and stared at the floor and in that second i had a moment of realization. I was away from my dad, I was staying in a house full of strangers and im sleeping in a safe room where I dont have to worry or be scared that my dad will walk in.

Although it was all a bit foreign I was still grateful to be safe for once. I felt like I could finally breath.

This was the first time today that i actually took a second to sit back and think about what happened today.

I was so lost in thought that I hadn't even noticed the hot tears of relief rolling down my cheeks in rapid succession. I pulled up the covers and crawled in, I cuddled up to a pillow and cried myself to sleep.

But this time I wasn't crying because it hurt I was crying because for once in my life I actually felt like things were going to get better.
