Roommates

32.

"Hello?" He wondered where the unknown number was from.

"Hyung, I've got a lot to explain."

"Felix!? Where the hell have you been!?"

"Aish chill I'll explain later."

"You're telling me to chill when you disappeared for like a year?"

".....yes"

Chan rolled his eyes, "I'll tell the guys and we can all me-"

"No! Ahem...no. I don't want anyone to know right now. So can we meet in private tomorrow?"

"Of course, I won't tell anyone. I've got to go now. Bye mate I missed ya."

"I missed you to channie Hyung, I'll see you soon."

He dropped the call and flopped onto the soft bed. Tomorrow would be a lot to deal with and the many days to follow.

Felix nervously knocked on the door. It opened very quickly to a over excited Chan.

"Felix!" He pulled him inside and squeezed him into a hug. "You're really back. I've missed you. What happened?"

"Hey Hyung." He smiled as they hugged, "I've got a lot to explain." He chuckled.

"Yeah, yeah you do."

They sat down together on the couch and chan patiently waited for Felix to start talking.

He took a deep breath in and slowly let it out, "In the middle of the night I received a call from my mother. She...she explained to me the situation about my um sister had gotten w-worst."

Chan could see unfallen tears in his friends' eyes. "You don't have to continue if you don't want to."

He shook his head and continued, "I never told you but, my sister had been b-battling cancer over the years." And that's when he let his tears fall. He thought this would be easy to say but he found it hard. Chan wrapped him in a hug and spoke soothing words to him.

"Talk whenever you feel like it, I'll wait."

He sniffed and looked at Chan with glossy eyes,"H-hyung she's gone."

"I'm so sorry Felix. I wish I could have been there to help you through this. I want you to know that you did the right thing by leaving." He could feel his own eyes sting. Felix was like a brother to him, he never wanted him to go through this.

The two stayed in each others arms until Felix fell asleep. Chan figured he didn't get much last night.

He gently layed him on the soft bed and pulled the sheets over his small figure.

A couple hours had passed and Chan figured Jeongin would be home soon. He shook the younger awake softly.

Felix rubbed his eyes and say up, adjusting to his surroundings. "Jeongin will be home soon, I can drive you home if you'd like." He only nodded in reply, to sleepy to talk.

"Would you like me to carry you?"

"I'm only tired, my legs still work but thank you."

The drive to the hotel was short, Chan got out of the car and opened Felix's door. Once he was put of the car Chan pulled him into another heartfelt hug. "I missed you mate. A lot, you were gone a long time."

"I know, I'm sorry. I'll talk to you later and we'll catch up yeah?"

He nodded his head and finally let the younger go.
