---3rd Person's POV---

Hingal na hingal na si Seungcheol dahil sa pagtakbo at nanlalabo na ang mga mata niya dahil sa luhang namumuo sa mga mata niya. His heart was racing so fast because he is afraid... Afraid to lose y/n again.

Well, kung drama queen si y/n, syempre dapat drama king din si Seungcheol! XD

It took him 10 minutes looking for room 0317 and it was driving him crazy. Nakalimutan niya kasing tanungin si Bethie kung saang floor yung room, and it turned out to be na nasa 3rd floor pala yun samantalang kanina pa siya paikot-ikot sa 2nd floor.

"Y/N!", bungad ni Seungcheol pagkabukas niya ng pinto ng room 0317. Kabang-kaba siya and he was actually expecting to see an unconscious y/n lying on the bed, pero si Coach Park ang naabutan niya dun.

"Seungcheol?! Kamusta ka na? Tagal nating di nagkita!", the man greeted.

"Coach? Anong ginagawa mo dito? Where's y/n?!", sunud-sunod na tanong ni Seungcheol, not even bothering to breathe.

"Si Ms. Y/n? Nandun sa restroom. Bakit? May nangyari ba?" As if on cue, biglang lumabas si y/n galing sa restroom at nagtatakang tumingin kay Seungcheol.
"Mr. Choi? What are you doing her---"

Di na naituloy ng dalaga ang sasabihin niya when Seungcheol hugged her suddenly and cried on her shoulder.

Tatadyakan sana ni y/n si Seungcheol sa pag-aakalang nanananching siya. Pero natigilan siya, but her heart softened when she heard his soft sobs.

---YOUR POV--- 


"Coach? Anong ginagawa mo dito? Where's y/n?!" I stopped washing my hands midway when I heard a familiar voice outside the restroom.

I immediately opened the door to confirm if it was really Seungcheol.

"Mr. Choi, what are you doing her---" I was taken aback nang yakapin niya ako. Hindi ako umimik at balak ko sanang pilipitin ang braso niya at tadyakan siya pero natigilan ako nang marinig ko siyang umiiyak.

What the f*ck is going on?!

"*sniffles* Aka-akala ko kung... ano nang nang-nagyari sa'yo eh *sniffles*", mahinang sabi niya sa'kin nang di pa rin inaalis ang pagkakayakap niya sa'kin.

"Ahem! May tao pa dito o. Respeto naman sa pilay na single, mga kapatid!", singit ni Coach Park.

Biglang napabitaw ni Seungcheol sa'kin.

"Sorry... *singhot* I got carried away...", sabi niya habang nagpupunas ng mga luha niya.

I had to make a great effort to hold back a smile seeing how cute he was.

Tang inang itsura naman yan, Choi Seungcheol!! Bakit ba sobrang perfect mo sa mga mata ko?! Kung makikita mo lang siya ngayon, manggigigil ka sa sobrang ka-cute-an niya ngayon... Mukha siyang batang inagawan ng candy~

Huhuhu Sinong kumuha ng candy ni akin at papatayin ko?! Hinding-hindi makakaligtas ang taong magpapaiyak sa kanya ng ganito!! *plays suspense music*

"Y/n? Okay ka lang?", tanong ni Seungcheol sa'kin na nakapagbalik naman sa'kin sa realidad na pinagpapantasyahan ko na naman ang ex ko.

Ang ex ko na dahilan kung bakit naiinis ako ngayong araw. Yung dahilan kung bakit naiinis ako sa number ng room na ito.

"Yeah.", I answered shortly before I grabbed my bag and made my way out of the room. "I'm truly sorry for this, Mr. Park. I will take care of everything. Goodbye.", pagpapalam ko kay Coach Park and bowed slightly bago tuluyang lisanin ang kwarto.

I have to get out of that room. Nasa-suffocate ako. Kailangan kong huminga.

"Y/n! Y/n, sandali!", rinig kong sigaw ni Seungcheol galing sa likod. Shit! Bakit niya pa ako sinusundan?! Hindi siya nakakatulong sa nararamdaman ko ngayon!

---Seungcheol's POV---

Hinawakan ko si y/n sa may pulsuhan niya para pigilan siya sa paglalakad, pero nagulat ako nang pilipitin niya bigla ang kamay ko at itulak ako sa pader, face first.

"Nakakainis ka na, Mr. Choi. It's a surprise that I haven't killed you yet.", sabi niya sa'kin. I flinched dahil masakit yung pagkakatulak niya sa'kin.

"Y/n... Gusto ko lang naman malaman kung anong---"

"I did that to him. Napilayan ko siya while trying to sublimate my anger.", she said confidently.

Binitawan niya rin ako at inayos ang damit niya. "Just leave me alone.", she whispered, but loud enough for me to hear.

"Okay. I'm sorry."

"You should be! You should be because you are the reason why this day and that room feels so shitty! Why are you doing this to me, Seungcheol?! You're very insensitive!"

Nagulat ako for her sudden outburst. The calm and composed y/n completely gone.

"Y/n, ano bang prob---"

"Problema?! Wala~! Walang problema! It's not your problem na September 30 ngayon at 0317 ang number ng room ni Coach!! It's my goddamn heart's problem!"

"Y/n..."

"Stop. Just stop, please.", she whispered, voice cracking at the last word. She let out a single tear, but immediately wiped it and put on sunglasses and her infamous poker face. "

And... Tell Soonyoung-oppa that he is banned from the practice room and excused in all of your activities for the whole week.", she said bago tuluyang akong iwan in the middle of this busy hospital.

I remember y/n. It was exactly 5 years when I broke up with you. The room number was the same as our anniversary. I just thought that it didn't affect you anymore, na ako na lang ang may pake...

But this encounter actually made me happy. At least, I know that you still care. I hope it's not too late for a comeback now, akin, because I am willing to fight for you now.
