6PM | SUNDAY

"thanks again, minhyuk. i wouldn't know what to do.. if my phone wasn't there."

"hyungwon, you're my bud. you don't need any more stress after you moved your genius brain to LONDON."

"yeah... part of me was kinda... hoping that i didn't end up... here."

"what?! why not?! you could become a good lawyer with this opportunity- wait... is this about...?"

"lee minji, yeah."

"man... this blows... well uh.... just look through your phone, see if anything is off about it. your phone went through a lot traveling too."

"you're so weird... but thanks minhyuk."

"yeah... anytime."

the sound of the end call echoed the vast desolated room containing nothing but filled boxes and... a somewhat melancholic man. sighing, he opened the small box that contained his cellphone... which was unarmed, as if no one had touched it.

he put the phone back in the box and walked over to his wide king-sized bed and plopped himself down, giving a deep sigh.

i wonder if minji will be alright..

he thought about her career and how much he wanted to be there for her... but going back after suddenly abandoning without any goodbyes... was unforgivable. and he thought of his unrequited love and how much he wanted to change and tell her how he had felt before departing so quickly.

he got up, and started walking over the small box and took his phone. he quickly unlocked the device to which showed the past messages that were sent... to minji?

i didn't send these messages...

it wasn't long until he found that one text... that changed his sulking presence. he quickly called her number and rang at least a few times before it went straight to voicemail.

crap.

he decides to call minhyuk again to which he answered.

"hyungwon, are you-"

"minji confessed to me in text?"

"well, uh-"

"and i was such an idiot for leaving my phone in the dorm, how did i-"

"hyungwon, take it easy. you're doing fine, but.. about her other texts..."

"i know.."

"you should call her when you can. i know she wants you to focus on your career, but.. just try your best, to make her proud until you get back?"

"how long.. how long is that minhyuk?"

"i really don't know.. hyungwon... i don't know."

"but... what if-"

"promise me... you'll make this work somehow. you're smarter than you are."

"...sure, thanks minhyuk."

"as i said, you're welcome, hyungwon."

but, things didn't end up as expected. hyungwon got too busy with his new education to which his work had tripled from what he was used to. but.. he had to fight back and strive to do better. on the other hand, minji... blocked hyungwon's cellphone number for she had to remove her distractions for she was given an opportunity to study in the states as well.

but there is always a way again... right?
