They don't have a child.

This only means one thing. Jisung really loves Lami to marry her. They are not forced to marry each other because of a child. They are not forced to marry each other because of their family.

Chenle now realized that they would get married because they really love each other.

Truth slaps hard when it came from the mouth of someone you love.

"Are you listening?" Yangyang asked as he snapped his fingers in front of Chenle.

"Sorry. You were saying?" Asked Chenle when he finally got back to his sense. He was dozing off too hard. He could not stop thinking about Jisung and Lami.

They would get married soon. They would have a honeymoon. Chenle could not stop himself from forming Jisung's and Lami's picture inside his... Jisung and Lami, entangled in bed and naked...

"We will gonna attend an auction next two weeks," said Yangyang.

"Will they be there?" Asked Chenle, referring to Jisung and Lami.

Yangyang shrugged off his shoulders, "I'm not sure but maybe, they are. Business is a small world, after all, expect to see them there."

"I see..." Chenle murmured at the side.

"The offer..." Yangyang began. "It's still up."

"What offer?"

"My offer to go back to Germany," said Yangyang.

"I think it'll be better for us to go back there. We'll be back in our old life. No complications anymore," Yangyang added. He wasn't only thinking about Chenle but also him. Ever since he saw Hendery that night on the ball, he couldn't stop thinking about him. If he... If he ever tried to follow his heart. Will they still accept them?

Yangyang was thinking over a lot of things since he saw Hendery. Maybe... Maybe it would all stop when he goes back to Germany.

Should I? Should we just go back to Germany? Chenle thought.

"I'm still thinking about it," said Chenle.

Is running away the real solution here to end his pain and suffering? Should he just run away again?

Chenle then realized that he must have really love to runaway to his problems. When his parents tried to end his relationship with Jisung, he ran away and went to the lad. When he got married to Yangyang, he was scared to see what will be Jisung's reaction and they ran away to Germany. And now... He's thinking of running away again.

Should he just face his problems like a grown-up? Should he stay and stop running away?

WHEN CHENLE ARRIVED at the boutique. He was surprised to see Jisung and Lami there. They rescheduled the choosing of designs for the gowns and tuxedos a few days ago, and now, they're here together.

"You're finally here," said Lami as she smiled. Jisung just looked at him. And Chenle just nodded slowly.

"Have you chosen a design?" Asked Chenle.

Lami nodded. "But it's just my gown and Jisung's tuxedo. We still have to choose designs for bridesmaids and groomsmen, flower girls, and those who will walk on the aisle."

"That's good. So, when do you plan to choose?"

"After they took our measurements then we'll start choosing for the design," said Lami and Chenle just nodded.

After a few minutes, one of the staff called Lami in a room to get her measurements, leaving him and Jisung alone in the lobby.

Since he saw Jisung a few weeks ago in the ball, he hadn't said he was sorry to the lad.

"Jisung..." Said Chenle.

If he would plan to go back to Germany, he has to back there without a heavy heart. He have to unpack all the baggage he left here. And it should start with him apologizing to Jisung for what he did before.

He was now starting to consider Yangyang's offer.

"What?" Asked Jisung and then he looked at Chenle directly in the eye.

Jisung was emotionless. Chenle was trying to see an emotion from his eyes but he couldn't find any. He was trying to see if Jisung was angry; If Jisung was loathing him through his eyes but he couldn't find any as though he was looking at a stranger's eye.

"I'm... I'm sorry," said Chenle and then he pressed his lips tight close.

He finally said it.

"Okay."

Fuck.

"That's it?" Asked Chenle. "Just an okay?"

Chenle was stoned at his seat.

He was expecting Jisung to be mad at him, to scream at him, but he did not. He was still in his composed, calm, and emotionless self. He wasn't showing any changes.

"What do you want me to say?" Asked Jisung. "Tell me. What do you want me to say?"

No. This doesn't look right anymore. Thought Chenle. This doesn't look normal anymore.

Jisung being calm and composed scared the shit out of Chenle. He couldn't understand how the lad could stay calm and composed in this kind of situation while they are having a heartbreaking talk right now.

Didn't Jisung ever feel mad at him for leaving him? How could he stay calm? How could he not shout at him? How could he show that he was fine when Chenle left him? How could he show that he's not affected by this situation? How could he act like this was all rainbows and butterflies? How could he look him in the eye as if nothing happened between them? How could he look him in the eyes as though he didn't leave him? How could he stay calm while Chenle was already losing his mind? How?

"How can you say that as though nothing happened?" Asked Chenle.

"Please, Jisung, if you're putting an act right now stop it. Don't act like this is okay for you. This isn't okay for me, please. Just this once, tell me what you really feel," Chenle added.

It sounds insane. He was literally begging his ex to show him that he's mad at him for leaving him.

"Why shouldn't I be okay? It's been five years," said Jisung. He was still calm and still looking at Chenle directly in the eye. He was still emotionless.

"Don't hide to me that you're not okay. I know I hurt you so bad for leaving you. This makes me feel worse, stop acting like this is okay for you," begged Chenle.

Jisung's lips parted.

"You're already married. You are happily married to that guy," said Jisung. "Why are you acting like you haven't moved on yet? Why are you acting like you're the one who suffered the most between us?"

"You left me, remember?" Jisung added.

Chenle was speechless. He was stunned in his seat. Reality hit him. His tears had started to form.

"You had a choice and it wasn't me. So stop acting like it wasn't your decision to leave me. Grow up."
