❝ what am i going to do without you? ❞

AREUM INHALES AND exhales slowly as the van comes to a stop outside the airport.

"I can hear your heartbeat from all the way over here."

Areum turns to Yugyeom who was seated next to her. She pouts as she looks at him. "I can't help it, Gyeom."

Yugyeom smiles at her and pats the top of her head. "I know. Let's hurry up and go."

She nods and opens her door so her and Yugyeom can step out. She looks around and spots Mark walking towards them. Areum could feel her tears already wanting to pour out. She promised Mark she wouldn't cry today, but as she looked at him all packed up and ready to leave, she knew she'd have to break that promise.

When Mark stands in front of her, he looks at her sad face. "Why?" He asks jokingly.

Areum rolls her eyes playfully. "Nothing. I'm just going to miss Milo." She says as she reaches over and grabs Milo from his hands.

Mark smiles at her. "Yeah, he'll miss you too."

Today was Mark's last day in Korea for a while. No one knew when he'd come back, not even Mark himself, which made Areum even more upset about the situation. She was losing a brother and she didn't know how to handle it.

Eventually Jackson and Jaebeom show up and the time for Mark to leave draws closer and closer. Areum hadn't spoken a word the entire time, for fear of breaking into tears.

Areum dreaded every passing minute, but eventually it was time.

"Alright guys, I have to get going." Mark announces to the group.

Areum watches as he hugs Jackson, Jaebeom, and Yugyeom and then finally he turns to her. With a big smile that Areum always knew Mark for wearing, he brings her in for one final hug.

"I'll see you soon, alright?"

Areum doesn't respond as she just rests her head onto his chest. He pulls away from her and looks at her face to see tears forming in her eyes.

"You promised me you wouldn't do this, you liar." Mark jokes with a laugh.

"Shut up." Areum says before wrapping him in another hug.

Mark holds her tightly. "I told you, you can call me everyday, Areum. I'm not going anywhere."

"But I won't be able to hug you anymore." Areum sobbed.

Mark chuckles as he holds her a little tighter. "I'm saving a big hug for you when you come to visit me, ok." They separate and Mark wipes her stray tears. "I love you, Areum. Try not get into trouble while I'm gone."

Areum sniffs and wipes her tears as well. "No promises."

Mark chuckles and leans over, placing a kiss onto her forehead.

"Bye, Areum."

Instead of responding Areum just waves with tears still falling from her eyes.

Mark smiles at her one last time before waving at everyone else again and walking towards the airport entrance, leaving their sight. Yugyeom, Jaebeom and Jackson walk over to Areum. Jackson puts his arm around Areum's shoulders.

"He'll be back in no time." Jackson assures her.

Areum groans loudly. "I can't believe he left me all alone with you guys."

"We love you too Areum." Jaebeom responds with a smile.
