"oh hi." jaemin said.

"hey jaemin , you're not mad?" i asked.

"mad for what?" he asked me.

"bringing renjun in, at this hour?" i asked.

"well , as long as i know he's not a bad guy , it's fine." he said calmly.

oh wow , i didn't expect that.

"and you guys are in relationship , who i am to question it." he said.

i looked into his eyes.

"thanks..jaemin." i said.

"you don't have to thank me yieun. i've sinned a lot... to you , to renjun." he said.

"you didn't." i said.

"yeah , what are you're talking about?" renjun said.

"ahh nevermind , i don't want to talk about this. i'll continue to sleep and renjun you should go back anytime soon. we have school remember?" he said as he stand up.

"you will go to school tomorrow? are you sure? you really don't have too." i asked.

"i need to face it. i can't run away once again." he said as he smiled bitterly before going upstairs.

"i'm worried for him." i said.

"me too. i don't think he's fine." renjun said as he hold my hand.

"you need to be strong to and everything will be okay." he added.

"thank you , renjun."

"you're welcome , i came to check on you and as jaemin said , it's late. i'll go first. see you tomorrow." he said.

"no, i'll go. don't worry." i said and smiled.

"let's go." i added as i took her hand.

we walked to the school together.

in a blink of an eye , we arrived at the gate.

"yieun , let's split ways." i said.
