The next morning soon came rolling in as the memory lost boy still was found asleep in bed. Key had been awake for who knows how long, thinking about everything while staring up at the ceiling. He had been having a hard time sleeping ever since Jonghyun came home from the hospital, not really sure as to why.

Perhaps it had been caused by stress or the fact that Jonghyun was slowly turning into a stranger at this point, making the experience of sharing a bed quite uncomfortable? That or maybe it was from the simple act of worry and constant overthinking?

Sighing to himself, Key covered his face with his cold hands as he reminded himself of everything Jonghyun's mother had told him at the hospital yesterday. She had been in so much pain just like he had. They had spilled all of their concerns and vulnerabilities yet the boy had not opened up at all despite the plan Taemin and he had made, in hope to get Jonghyun to remember.

Turning his head to the side, his eyes met a peaceful looking Jonghyun as he quietly stared at his features. Jonghyun had such a charming apperance but even to someone as shallow as Key, it was nothing compared to the personality he once radiated, the personality he missed...

And now, he was resting, looking as carefree as ever. Key wondered if he ever had troubling thoughts or felt guilty for not remembering any of them because to him, it felt as Jonghyun was getting off easy compared to the ones around him who hadn't suffered physically damage yet somehow was still hurting.

It didn't help that New Year eve was in two days either. How was he going to have Jonghyun in a social gathering with everyone else when he so easily hurt and pressed people's bottons? Key had promised the memory lost boy's mother that he would take care of it all, that everything would be fine but how? He barely had any time to fix anything and Taemin and his plan most certainly couldn't work in such a short amount of time... but then again, what other choise did they have?

He had to give it one last try since realistically speaking, he had nothing to lose.

Taking a deep breath, he gathered himself the courage as he decided to wake up the other who mumbled out a groan in response, followed by; "Just five more minutes", which had Key roll his eyes amused. Fair enough, he could accept that.

... 

After the two had gotten up and dressed, they came out to a note on the counter which informed them that both Onew and Taemin had gone out for an 'adventure'. Key then raised a brow as Jonghyun came up next to him to read the note.

"Adventure with..." He began to count, "8 exclamation marks?" The memory lost boy pointed out which is what had had the other amused. The two must have had a great morning or perhaps just a great idea in mind because the note seemed very enthusiastic. "I wonder where they went..." Jonghyun mumbled as Key looked back at him.

"How about we go on our own adventure?" He suggested as the latter looked quite doubtful. "I will give breakfast at this really lovely place if we do." He hurried to add which was enough to make Jonghyun give in.

~~~~Music Café~~~~

As they had arrived at their destination, they stopped outside as Jonghyun furrowed his brows. "Mohsik kafi?" He attempted to read as Key moved his eyes from the boy to a big sign above them.
