Two months had passed since that day and Seungmin hadn't seen Hyunjin ever again since then.
He had quit his job the same day he had left his ex-boss's apartment, he couldn't work there like nothing had happened between them, the brunette was done.
Korea had left too many bad memories in his mind and heart, Seungmin couldn't stay here any longer.
Not with the knowledge that his whole family, his unborn baby included, had passed away here.
"I think that's it"
The boy sighed as he shoved the last moving box to the others in the corner, his gaze falling on the paper that had fallen out of one of them.
He picked the photo up, his breath hitching.
It was the ultrasound picture.
"I'm sorry baby."
With a last glance at the photo, he put it back safely in the box where it belonged before the sound of the door bell ringing disturbed the silence in the apartment.
"Who's this? It's so late, who could that be?"
Seungmin mumbled to himself as he stood up and patted the dust from his sweatpants and walked over to open the door.
"H-hyunjin? What are you doing here?"
"Can I.. Can I come in maybe?"
"Uh sure? But it looks quite messy and empty at the moment, sorry for that."
The younger let his ex-boss in and guided him to the lonely couch, the only remaining piece of furniture in his empty apartment.
"So you're moving?"
"Yeah uh.. I don't want to stay here any longer."
Hyunjin only nodded but avoided looking in the younger's eyes when they sat quietly beside each other as he buried his hands in the pocket of his oversized hoodie.
It wasn't totally awkward but not really comfortable either.
"Uh.. Why exactly are you here?"
Seungmin had to admit that he liked how the older looked, his big bordeaux-colored hoodie, his black hair tied into a little ponytail and his cheeks had gotten slightly chubbier.
He looked healthier than when they had seen each other the last time.
"Oh yeah, right. Ehm about the baby-"
"If you're here to talk about that, please leave."
"But Minnie-"
"No Hyunjin! I told you, if the baby is gone, I'm gone too!"
Seungmin had stood up by now, not able to sit any longer and stay calm if his boss had just come here to talk about their baby that wasn't there anymore.
"Let me talk for fuck's sake!"
Hyunjin was also screaming by now, he had just wanted to talk but the younger was already mad at him when he hadn't even let him talk yet.
"Then say what you have to say."
A short but suffocating silence followed when Seungmin looked at him expectantly, it was obvious that he was still tense.
"The baby isn't gone."
"W-what?"
"I haven't aborted the baby, I couldn't."
"B-but you-"
"I know, I know. But when I went to the clinic, I just-"
"You couldn't."
Hyunjin nodded as he let his head hang low.
"And you're really telling the truth?"
The younger couldn't help it, life had never been fair to him so for him it was justified that he wanted to make sure this wasn't another one of life's disappointments.
He trusted Hyunjin but he didn't trust his own life.
"I do, want to see?"
"Huh?"
Hyunjin chuckled softly when the brunette tilted his head like a cute confused puppy, he was still as adorable as months ago.
He stood up so that he was standing in front of the sitting brunette and lifted his hoodie up revealing a little baby bump.
"Oh my."
And the older couldn't keep the one tear from falling when a soft smile spread over Seungmin's face.
