We spent the rest of the night talking and gotten to know each other more. I learned so much about him and i felt like he wasn't afraid to tell me things about him. Lily had already took Yoori to meet her mom. Before going to bed, Lily had texted me….

Jooeun-ah. I have great news! My mom had forgiven me and let me keep Yoori. I convinced her and she came to a decision to help my raise Yoori if she lives here with me and Yoori. So i said ‘yes’. We talked all night at the cafe shop and she was happy in the end. I also wanted to tell you that Yoori won't be staying with you in your apartment anymore. I’ll come by tomorrow or whenever i have time to pick up Yoori’s things. Thank you for taking care of her for the night. We’ll talk very soon Jooeun.

After reading the text, i immediately went to bed. It had been a long day and all i wanted was some rest.

A couple of weeks went by. Since Chanyeol went on the EXO Planet tour with the members for the week, I took care of myself. I went to work at the school that day and came back after a long day. I felt a little lonely so I just hanged out by myself watching tv in the living room. After a little while later, Chanyeol came walking through the door. I turned around happy to see him. He looked everywhere for something. I stood up from my seat to go to him and ask…

Jooeun (*asks) : what are you looking for?
Chanyeol : I left my duffle bag here so I came back to get it.
Jooeun : I left it next to your desk in the living room.
Jooeun : I thought you'd see it right when you walk into the house to get it quickly.

Chanyeol ran into the living room to see his bag. He was relieved but upset at the same time. Then he tells me in his mad voice.

Chanyeol : I didn't ask you to move it.
Chanyeol (*asks) : why did you do it?
Jooeun : I was just trying to help. I wanted it to be a convenience for you when you came back.
Chanyeol : I don't need your help.
Jooeun : it's just a bag, it's no big deal Chanyeol.
Chanyeol : it's my things and we establish not to touch each other's things.
Chanyeol (*asks) : is it so hard to do that?
Jooeun : I did it because I care about you.
Jooeun : you know, I don't get you sometimes.
Jooeun : one minute you're happy and the next, you're not.
Jooeun : I did nothing wrong and yet you're mad at me. I'm sorry, okay.
Jooeun : and to think, I was so happy to see you come back.

I was a bit angry that Chanyeol had blamed me for doing a good gesture for him. I walked out of the apartment quickly as I can to a park to clear out my head. I didn't care that he was leaving again, leaving me. I sat on the swing breathing in air. Chanyeol came after me. As soon as i saw his face, i stood up to walk away. I was angry and kept on walking but i felt him following me. It has been a few minutes since i walked and i stopped suddenly turning around to say to him…

Jooeun : stop following me.
Chanyeol : I wanted to see if your getting back to the apartment safely.
Jooeun : that's just it.
Chanyeol (*asks) : what is?
Jooeun : you're like two person with two different personalities. I don't understand you sometimes.
Chanyeol : I'll apologize. I'm sorry for blaming you and saying that I don't need help.
Chanyeol : it turns out that I really need help from you.
Chanyeol : you've done nothing but been there for me these past couple of months.
Chanyeol : I thank you for that.
Jooeun : I thought you'd be happy living with me.
Chanyeol : I am Jooeun.

Chanyeol walked me back to the apartment. He grabbed his bag and we met outside of the door. He kept on staring at me in my eyes. Then he went in for a hug. He hugged me tightly and I whispered to him.

Jooeun (*whispers) : now I'm going to miss you more.
Chanyeol (*smiles & says) : I'm going to miss you too.
Jooeun (*asks) : when will you be back ?
Chanyeol : next week.
Jooeun : okay.

Chanyeol lets go of me and says…

Chanyeol : you behave now.
Jooeun (*chuckles & says) : always.
Chanyeol : I'm going now.
Jooeun : bye.

Chanyeol officially left and I felt like a million pieces inside had broken down. I missed him already.
