Nara's POV

he took the photo frame from between my hands and stared deeply at the picture before setting it down on the table after wiping the glass with his sleeve

then he sat on the floor next to me and pulled me into a side embrace

"I guess it's finally time to tell you about her" he mumbled and I nodded wanting to know so badly

"she's my first love..." he started and I already felt myself stiffen as if I didn't have this thought before "she was my girlfriend and we were planning on getting engaged and eventually getting married.. everyone envied our relationship..."

"then why did you break up" I tightened my grasp around him, tears threatening to fall any minute. "and why do you have this picture widely centered here if you broke up anyways"

if he loved her this much, why did they even break it off?

"we didn't break up. the destiny forced us apart" he said slightly sniffing "she died." he looked at me with a small sad smile

a pang of guilt pierced through me.. he did eventually lose a loved one

"she had cancer, and she wasn't strong enough to win over the brutal war she was fighting in, for her life's sake" he then let go of me and laid his head in my lap instead "when the doctor informed me that she didn't have many time left, I swore that I'd never love any other girl and promised to stay loyal to her and her only... but look at how I broke my own promise.. I loved you after and I almost feel guilty for finding happiness when I found you"

I bent down and pressed a small kiss on his head and gently stroked his head.. I couldn't reply with words... and I didn't know if I was in a place to reply

"please don't leave me like she did" he sniffed and I felt my pants get wet, he was crying on my lap

"I won't leave you" I replied with an almost inaudible tone

"promise?" he turned around in my embrace to face me and lifted his pinky finger

"I promise." and I locked my pinky finger with his

promises were originally meant to be broken, but this time I'll vow to not break this one

I got up and dragged him upstairs to our room

"you know what cures sadness?" I asked him while sitting on the bed and patting the space beside me

"tell me" he stood infront of me with crossed arms

"cuddlesssss" I said while opening my arms wide

he jumped beside me on the bed immediately swooping me into a tight hug

I laid my head on his chest and tangled our legs and he gently stroked my back

"as much as I want to savor this sweet moment, I'm not cooking dinner" he whispered

"fine. we'll order takeout then" I huffed with a pout

and without realizing it, we both drifted to sleep

Jongho's POV

"Sanha we can't just keep Chaeji locked in our spare room forever" I argued with him

"and we can't tell Hyunjin that we found her..." Sanha reasoned

"I know we can't, it's just... I don't understand... out of all people in the world.. why her?"
