The chinese male just woke up feeling no emotions running through him, he felt too numb waking up on a bed without jeno on it.
He missed everything about his lover, his smile, his touches, his hugs and kisses, his words, and just the simplest things that jeno does for him. Chenle wants to see his lover so badly, but if he would be honest, he doesn't have a lot of hopes seeing jeno anytime soon even though jaehyun had promised him that it wouldn't be the last time knowing how his mom is watching him with all the intention even though he couldn't do anything but to cry hard on his bed.
It's been a week since he came back and all he did was to lock himself up in his room, if it weren't for jaehyun sneaking some food for him then he would've been starving himself up for that period time.
Chenle don't think he could feel the love that he have for jeno the same way for another person.
Now he decided to go down to take his breakfast simply because he doesn't want for the woman to have suspicious at him and already felt bad for jaehyun keeping up with his shits the whole week as well.
"So... You eventually realize that locking yourself up in room is a useless move because that jeno didn't even have the balls to come over here and see you." mrs. zhong fake a sad face then gasp in the same manner "Ohhhhh... How could I forgot? He doesn't have the money to get his ass in here HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAHAHA!"
Chenle gritted his teeth at the insulting remark made by his mother towards his person, though he wanted to scream at the woman, the chinese male choose to ignore her and just took a seat spot afar from his mom as he's not in the mood to deal with the obnoxious personality that she has.
On the outside, chenle looks like he doesn't care and is unbothered by it but deep inside, his heart is slowly crashing into fine pieces.
His lack of courage to defend his other half against the woman with him wearing her evil smile, gives chenle the desire to hurt himself seriously.
"Awwww... are you really going to ignore your mom, mr. zhong?"
The chinese male heaved out a long sigh before looking at his mom with no emotion in his face "What do you want us to talk about?"
"Get yourself together because you're going to meet your future wife and in-laws tomorrow lunch."
Clenching his fist tight at what mrs. zhong just said, the chinese male took a deep breath once again maintaining his composure and pretend that he doesn't care.
His mom isn't the stereotypical bitchy rich moms that you of often see in dramas, but she's the type of person who will do anything just to get rid of hindrances in her plans.
Even if it means to harm or worse, kill someone.
Then chenle diverted his attention back to his breakfast, he wanted to say a lot of things, but looking at the situation that they had...
It's better not to speak.
~~
While the lee's are busy having their dinner, the only woman in the room looked at her younger son with such sadness because of how he lifelessly pick the food on his plate.
After chenle left their place, jeno felt like he lost the other half of his soul, he could barely do his daily routine because everything just reminds him about his lover.
Especially in his sleep.
His arms feels so empty without chenle in it. He couldn't go on through the night without thinking about the chinese male.
Their late night conversations about almost everything, their shared hugs and kisses, he just miss everything about about chenle.
Minhyung stare at the younger the same way as mrs. lee, if it weren't for him forcing his way inside jeno's room then he would've been starving himself by now.
His family clearly remembered how jeno swore not to love someone ever again, but here he is almost depriving himself to live.
"I'm done eating now..." jeno said, quickly standing up from his seat
Mr. Lee's eyes went at the plate that is not even half finished, the man looked at his wife and older son sadly then they watch jeno enter his room and slam the door close.
"He really loves chenle, isn't he?"
Mrs. Lee heaved out a sigh and nods "We thought he would never love someone that much again after what happened to his past, but it seems like chenle really find his way to that guy's heart..." she tried to smile to lighten up the atmosphere but it seems no use because of how heavy they felt
°°°
Upon laying down on his bed, jeno immediately covers himself up with the giant pillow right next to him and let out the tears that had been threatening to fall since earlier.
This have been his daily routine for a week now, starting his day with a hard sobbing and will end up his day, still crying his heart out.
Jeno thought he ran out of tears after the day chenle left, but no...
His tears just seems like they would never run dry.
"Lele..." he murmured in between his sobs "Come back to me now, please..."
While in the middle of his crying session, jeno's phone suddenly rang making him halt and get up from his bed "Who is this now?" he asked, wiping his tears with his palm before answering the call from an unregistered number on his contacts "Hello?"
"Is this lee jeno?"
Jeno furrowed his brows together at the familiar voice coming from the other call "How did you get my number and what do you need with me?" he responded sternly
"Chenle needs you so badly, come to their house tomorrow morning. I will text you the address in a bit." the man said before turning the phone call off
The male unintentionally unhanded his phone at the sudden news that chenle's bodyguard had told him. He had to pinch himself to know if he's dreaming or everything is just a joke.
It hurts.
It just means that it's real.
He's really going to see his lover for again.
A message bar then appeared on his phone making and the male quickly grab it.
Unknown Creature
+82xxxxxxxxxx
#119 NCT District, Dream Street, Seoul, South Korea
That's the address.
Come as early as possible.
Because Mr. & Mrs. Zhong will be out early in the morning as well.
And please be mindful of not getting caught by any of the house keepers.
Jeno smile a little, there are so many emotions lingering insert and is confused as what to he supposed to feel because of how much they overwhelmed.
There are so many things running in his thoughts about what could happened the next day.
But one thing that he'll do for sure once he saw chenle tomorrow.
He will shower him with lots and lots of hugs and kisses.
The male put his phone to the little table and lay his body down carefully "I'll be there tomorrow, lele. Please wait for me..." he said, before shutting his eyes close
To be continue...
