"So what happened to leaving now?"

Sunghoon met a lone figure leaning at the wall when he went out of the room. Jay doesn't seem to hear him at first as he has a far away look. His cold aura seems to repel people from approaching him too, not effective enough though for him.

Sunghoon leaned in the wall beside him, he noted how Jay's shoulder dropped at his presence though he still wasn't even blinking.

After a few minutes of silence, Jay finally acknowledged his existence. "What do I do now Sunghoon?" Sunghoon heard Jay's voice break.

"I don't know. I don't exactly know how deep the misunderstanding you two had but maybe, just maybe it's a blessing in disguise?" Sunghoon suggested.

"That doesn't seem to be on my limited options now you know." Jay mumbled, remembering what he told his hyung just a while ago.

Sunghoon chose not to respond, he did squashed the new olive branch being offered to him by the Fates. Sometimes, Jay's stubbornness and pride are pretty annoying.

"Wanna go now?" Jay offered when he realized the latter won't talk anymore.

"Is Jake coming?"

Sunghoon shook his head. Jay sighed again before the two decided to go home by themselves.

However just after a few steps, they saw Jin's wobbly figure emerged. "Jin hyung." Jay called, however instead of greeting them back the older just kept on walking as if he didn't see them. Like Jay's eyes a while ago, the older had a broken look.

Looks like everyone really took Heeseung's amnesia hard. Sunghoon bitterly thought.

Sunghoon reaches Jay's arm, stopping the latter to disturb the older. "You're tired. Let's go home."

"So how's the school Sunghoon? Jay seemed to ignore me, he didn't respond to my texts." Her mom pouted as they gathered for dinner that night.

"Jay didn't feel well, Mom." Sunghoon supplied. Her mom gasped at the sudden news. "Was it bad? I'll visit him after we're done here." Her mom said, munching her dinner quickly.

"Nah, he just needs rest." Sunghoon replied.

"But still he's sick, I promised her mom to look out for him. Yeji, come with me okay?" Her Mom insisted. Sunghoon sighed at her Mom's stubbornness.

"Okay." Yeji replied not really listening to their conversation since she's glued to her phone. Sunghoon rose his brow at his sis then smiled after at her obliviousness. He's sure she's gonna throw a tantrum later.

Once he's done, he heads straight to his room. Sunghoon heaved a sigh as he leaned on his doors. The day runs down to his mind without his permission. Oddly, once he fell on his bed, exhaustion finally caught up to him. He stared blankly at the ceiling.

He doesn't have the luxury earlier to really ponder about the strangeness he experienced  today but now that everything has calmed down, his brain decided to do its pending task.

One thing he's sure of, all the weird things  revolve to a certain Lee Heeseung who apparently woke up now with amnesia.

That dream…

'Aren't you leaving now?'
'I am.'

What was that?

Heeseung's broken face flashed on his mind again. Sunghoon ruffled his hair in annoyance. Was it his curiosity that made him dreamt about the guy? He visibly cringed at how creepy it sounded but he's afraid that it must be the only logical reason his brain can come up for now. He has another hunch but he's purposely trying to ignore it. It will complicate things more.
