As stars over the city start to fade Don't let it all get dark by the day
You can't take back the choices that you make
Don't carry that weight

Minho sighed softly as he pressed 'play' on his phone and leaned his head back against the cool glass of the window.
The train passed goldish fields and green meadows, little forests and small villages while Paradise by Coldplay played but the ravenette's gaze was fixed on the horizon.
On the clouds passing above what seemed to be the end of the world, the part where earth and sky touched.
He was glad that they finally left the crowded city, ever since then he felt like couldn't breathe anymore between all those skyscrapers in the mass of people.
The mass of anonymous people passing by, ignoring each other in this grey suffocating bubble.
Minho had never felt more lonely.
And now he'd go back to Gimpo, his home.
He'd take over his grandpa's bakery, the place where he basically grew up and start a new life there.
The ravenette had been a very successful baker with a quite famous bakery in Seoul thanks to his beloved grandfather who had taught him all the little tricks how to make perfect pastries when he had been just a little boy.
Minho had years of experience even at the age of 21 years and just knew how to bake something everyone would like, young or old.
But ever since that day he couldn't stay in the city any longer.
And deep in his heart he was glad that today was his last time in Seoul for a long time probably, his new life was waiting in Gimpo with the beautiful little bakery.
Although he was sad that his grandpa couldn't be there to see the opening, he was proud that his grandpa had left this behind for him.
It had been the old man's everything so he knew what great honor it was to inherit.
At the right time, the bakery was like an umbrella to Minho on a seemingly endless rainy night.
The break-up had been rough on him, it was hard to part ways after sharing a past of five years together.
He had thought they'd last forever, they met in Highschool and even stayed together over the difficult time of puberty and graduation.
But was there ever a guarantee for forever?
Was there a law that promises are meant to be kept?
Can two people really belong together for eternity?
Minho would have nodded with a big smile around two years ago, blinded by love and manipulated by those butterflies in his tummy but now after he had taken his rose-colored glasses off, the truth felt cold and tasted rancid.
It was hard to understand how something that makes you feel the best you ever could, can also destroy you completely.
He had thought he couldn't be happier and he had been right.
After you reach the mountain peak, the valley will follow.
And Minho fell hard.
Again the ravenette sighed as he checked the time on his phone, it felt like they had left Seoul train station years ago but in reality they had only been driving for 15 minutes.
And it still felt a bit strange seeing his new wallpaper, he had changed it for the first time in months but he knew it was better like this.
He had to start letting go.
Just when the ravenette was about to get his iPad out from his bag to watch a movie, a soft knock on the door made him stop his movements to look up at the stranger.
"Excuse me? Is this seat free?"
