5 days more.

yeonjun placed his card on top of the stack card and shouted 'uno'.

"yess i win!!" he jumped around the houses, showing his thumb down to the three boys.

"woohoo losers~!" he continued to shout, celebrating his winner when suddenly he choked on his saliva.

he put his hand on his chest as he coughed. "i'm thirsty.."

"that's what you get hyung." taehyun snickers.

"shut up you brat, this is how you should celebrate your win." yeonjun glared at the black-haired boy as he made his way to the kitchen to get himself some cold drink.

"yes, i understand." yeonjun halted his step hearing the familiar voice on his way to the kitchen.

"i will send the money by the end of this week, i promised." yeonjun could sense a little desperation in his voice, what made him like that?

the other male ended his call and got out of the corner but stopped when he stumbled into yeonjun, his eyes instantly wide open as if he had just seen a ghost.

"h-hyung?" he blamed himself for stuttering, now he looked suspicious to yeonjun.

"what are you doing?" soobin cleared his throat.

"to get me some water? you, what are you doing?" yeonjun cocked an eyebrow, looking at the tall male as he examined his facial expression.

"n-nothing." he excused himself and walked passed yeonjun.

the pink-haired male glanced weirdly at him, looking at the younger figure until he decided to catch up to him.

"wait." yeonjun held soobin's wrist to prevent him from taking any more steps.

"y-yes hyung?" soobin shaky eyes met him, he tried hard to not show that he was nervous.

"are you.. perhaps lending money from a loan?" yeonjun squinted his eyes.

"what? no!" soobin widened his eyes hearing the words left the older mouth.

"then what about the thing that you said earlier?"

"oh wait, are you a drug dealer?" he added.

"yeonjun hyung!" soobin shouted. can't believe the male in front of him just accused him of being a drug dealer, even if soobin is desperate he would never sell drugs.

"what are you talking about? do you even hear yourself?" he asked the pink-haired man.

"then tell me, explain it to me! we're friends right—"

"we are?" the latter questioned, pointing to himself.

"w-what?" yeonjun was lost for words, didn't soobin think of him as a friend?

"we were just a working partner hyung, a babysitter partner." soobin emphasized the words.

yeonjun looks at soobin, he can sense anger in his eyes but he fails to notice one emotion behind his brown eyes.

sadness.

"don't think i treat you all kind because i want to become your friend, i just did that just because we will working together." after muttering those, soobin left the scene leaving yeonjun alone.

"i-i thought w-were friend..?" yeonjun whispered hoping soobin could at least hear him but of course, the male didn't since he had already left.

brushing off the tears that almost fell, he put a smile on his face before walking back to the living room.

he frowned when he didn't see the red-haired man.

"are you looking for soobin hyung?" he looks at taehyun, nodding his head.

"yes, where he is?"

"he just left with his bag, i don't know where he going." taehyun replied, pointing at the door.

soobin left?

yeonjun sighed, he knew it was his fault for confronting the younger like that. he was not supposed to force the male to suddenly tell him his problem.
