Where am I? The sunlight's right in my face, a soft yawn interfering with my slumber. I roll my neck around, presuming I'm in my bed, but figuring that I'm in an upright position, I don't think I am. Finally, I open my eyes, faced with the rising waves against a sandy horizon. I know this beach anywhere–I'm in Jeju.

Was yesterday a dream? Did I not kiss Taehyun?

I place my hands on the steering wheel, checking to make sure nothing was stolen. In my peripheral view are shoes, catching my attention, and as I turn my head, there he sleeps, hugging himself from the cold. God, this is looking awfully sensual. I reach for my shoulders, feeling his tuxedo around me. I thought after last night, he'd run away, but I guess I've forgotten every detail–he came with me to Jeju Island.

The car's a little cold; I can tell by the way he's shivering. Quickly laying his coat back on him, I turn on the heat, getting out of the car quietly. The memory replays beautifully in my head, almost as if it were truly a dream.

The nightmare has just begun, though. Now, the trivialities lie in whether or not he'll own up to it, perhaps confident enough to tell me his real feelings–or he'll cower. '

My phone rings, smiling at the caller. "Good morning, Sorin!"

"You seem oddly happy today," I hear her shift, drawing on some paper. "I thought you wouldn't pick up, but I forgot you're an early bird. However, being in Jeju, shouldn't you be resting?"

"That was the initial plan," I clear my throat, kicking one foot over the other. "But, I've been disturbed by an external force. You'd be wholeheartedly surprised."

"If you think I'll get upset, shut it," Sorin groans, making me laugh. "But, you know what's weird? You probably don't want to hear about him, but Mr. Kang isn't here today! Even when we've gone through issues before, he's never missed a day. Do you think he might be sick? No, he'd be here when he's sick, too... Sora, do you think he died?"
