⌜ forty seven ⌟

❝anything bothering you?❞ yuta asked, starting the engine as he multitasked in replying to his manager's message at the same time.

humming, sicheng looked to out of it ever since they went out of the hospital. fortunately for them, it was already late at night and no reporters were around to intervene with them and no crazy fan of theirs were there to act like zombies from train to busan. however, they weren't sure if paparazzi's are safe on the list, they might be out there, hiding.

but what else can they get from the information of the two actors getting out from the hospital at the same time? unless they were insane enough to make up an article about sicheng being pregnant and yuta accompanying him for a check up, the two actors would laugh at it.

they were taking it slow, especially when the japanese is still at the stage of moving on.

❝sicheng?❞ calling him once more, yuta stopped at the red light just to turn at the younger beside him. ❝you can tell me anything.❞

❝it's nothing,❞ he didn't want to sound nosy, it's not his business to mind. however, it was really troubling him. ❝i'm fine.❞

using on hand on the steering wheel, yuta brought the other to hold on to the younger's warm ones. even though he had his eyes and focus on the road, that really didn't stop him from pushing the younger to voice out his concern. ❝how are we going to take another step if you won't start opening up to me?❞

and the fact that it's supposed to be sicheng who's currently falling hard. ❝i just don't think that it's something we should be thinking much about.❞

taking another stop, yuta heaved a sigh, turning his head to the side as he caressed the younger's warm hand to compose him down. 

it took sicheng a few seconds before he finally gathered the courage to say something. ❝is jaehyun thinking about something else?❞

❝what do you mean?❞ the mention of his name made the japanese actor tighten his grip on the male's hand.

the younger noticed how tensed he was and that was enough to prove him right with that he was exactly guessing. ❝i walked up on his mother crying in his arms. did he do something to make her act like that?❞

the result of the male's decision will come out, and yuta would like to wait for that rather than telling the chinese as to what is going to happen. why bother waiting? well, he still has hope inside him. a hope that is so hard to believe, but he is holding on to that.

with a small smile, yuta leaned towards the younger and placed a soft peck on his forehead to reassure him. he knows how emotionally wrecked the chinese can get, that's why he always gets casted with sad genres. ❝just know that i'll be here with you whenever you need me, no matter what.❞
