~"Don't come to our high school reunion party," my fiancee said on the other line of the phone.

I stood straight in front of my apartment's door before changing my phone position, from my left ear to my right ear. "Why can't I? Explain to me mr. Kwon. Why can't I attend our reunion party?"

My fiancee, Hoshi, just sighed. "Nevermind. Just... whatever. See you later."

"Hey! Aren't you going to pick me up?"

Did he hang up? Did he?!

"Hello? Hello?! Yah!"

I glanced at the screen on my phone before putting it inside my pocket. "What the hell is his problem?" I mumbled while brushing my face with both hands. Then I saw a bottle of milk and a rolled newspaper in front of my neighbor's apartment door.

So someone already moved in the next door? I got a new neighbor! Yipieee! I hope she is a girl!

I fixed my hair before knocking on my neighbor's door. "Knock knock! It's me, your neighbor from the next door!"

Gosh I am so excited! It's been a long time since I had a talk with my neighbor. Apparently, some of my neighbors are not sociable. So I really hope to have someone I can share my thoughts; thoughts like talking bad about our landlord, electric bills, insufficient water supply, love life? and many more!

The door opened.

"Good am. My name is (y/n). Uhmmm, I saw a bottle of milk and a rolled newspaper in front of your door. I thought that because you are new, you didn't know that there is a-"

"(Y/N)?"

He called my name. My new neighbor called me in a familiar way. I slowly lifted my eyes to look at his face. I was right. I knew this guy. He is...

"J-Jeonghan?"

My ex-boyfriend.

"Hey, long time no see," he greeted with a smile.

What a fate of life. Who will expect that I'll meet my past lover after years as my new neighbor?

"Yeah. It's been a long time," I replied, putting my hands behind my back. "When did you come back from Paris?"

"Ahhh," he scratched his nape. Jeonghan looks he just woke up from bed; Ya know, because of his messy hair. However, he is still as handsome as before. "Not too long ago. Actually, I met with the other guys. Seungcheol, Woozi and..." he looked into my eyes before mentioning his closest friend before, "Hoshi."

Really? If he has met them, then that means...

"I am e-engaged," I said, and saw his eyes looked at the ring I am wearing. "Hoshi and I are getting marr--"

"I know. I heard it from him. Congrats," he said with a smile.

Wow. It is weird to heard this from a guy I used to love.

"Thank you," I replied.

For a moment, we went speechless. It feels like there is a lump in my throat, it turned dry that I can't say any words. Is there more to say?

"Then, I'll go back to my-"

"You are going to our reunion this afternoon? Aren't you?" he asked.

Now I know why Hoshi tried to stop me from going.

"I-I d-don't know. Maybe not," I excused. If I'll go, Hoshi and him will find it awkward to stay together.

"Why not? Our class won't be complete if you are not there. If you are hesitating because of me, then don't. Past is past. I also forgot everything about you."

I hate to admit it. But after hearing those words, it feels like my heart broke into a tiny dust of thin ice.

"Okay I'll come. See you later," I said and then dashed inside my own apartment.

As soon as I went it, my knees weakened. I sat on the ground and hug my knees.

Why do I feel hurt?

Yes, we loved each other before, but we had a good break up. No one cheats. No one made the both of us cry. But why?

While I was wondering about my answer, I reminisced our break up from years ago.

"I am going to Paris."

"Yeah, I heard. You are going to Paris to follow your dream. That's great Yoon Jeonghan."

"Are you happy?"

"Yes and no. Yes because you are given a chance to reach your dream. No because we are going to separate."

"Stop me from leaving. If you'll stop me, I won't go."

"Don't choose me Yoon Jeonghan. We still have a long journey in our lives. If you stop just because your girlfriend tells you to, it wil be unfair."

"So you are fine in letting me go?"

"I want you to be happy. Don't regret this chance. Go."

We both smiled at each other.

"A long distance relationship huh?" he chuckled.

"No. Starting from now on, you and I are not a couple. Let's break up."

"Wow, what a cool break up," he laughed.

"I know. I am cool right? So cool that you fell in love," I laughed also.

"Ahuh. You really got my heart. And I think I won't love anyone as much as I love you (y/n)."

"Really? Then what if you forgot about me? What if you got a new girlfriend?"

"Then let's make a deal."

"A deal?"

"Yup. If one of us got someone to love, then he will going to be the loser. And loser needs to treat the winner for an ice cream. Deal?"

"Pfft what the hell? HAhaha!"

"So (y/n)."

"Hmmm?"

"Don't be a loser okay? Wait for me. So do I."

In the end... I am the loser.

I'm done packing my things for an overnight party at the beach. When I opened the door, Jeonghan is already standing in front of my apartment.

"A-Ahmmm, I just want to ask you i-if," he stuttered. "...if y-you want to ride with me in my car? Well, we are going in the same location."

"You bought a car already?"

"No. It's been only two days since I got here. I borrowed a car from my sister."

"You mean your little sister you used to brought in our school? Waah! I missed her. How is she?"

"Haha. She got pretty and more matured than I. You know how much she loves you. If you have some time, we can visit her and..." Jeonghan got stopped, as if he knew this conversation is getting weird.

Yeah, why should I go with my ex boyfriend to meet his sister?

"Or maybe not. Hoshi won't like it right?" he changed statement.

We both forged a cough, "Ahem."

And headed to his car without saying any words.

When I got inside the car, I remembered again our old good times.

"Someday, I will buy a car," he says while we looked at the sky.

"And we are going for a date in a beach! Yehey!" I cheered.

"And I'll do romantic things with you inside the car."

"Romantic things like?"

Jeonghan leaned closer, almost hugging me. I made a huge gulped while staring at his pretty face and his lips.

"Like putting your seatbelt on. And when we got closer like this, I'll kiss you."

Laughing inwardly, I shook my head to wake up my senses.

"Put your seatbelt," Jeongjan said as he hopped in at the driver's seat.

I tried to put my seatbelt but it got stocked. "Oh no, I can't pull it. Argh!"

Jeonghan chuckled. "Come on. Let me do it," he offered then leaned closer to reach my seatbelt.

My eyes widened when I realized how close our distance is! It is so close I can feel his breath, I can watched how his adams apple moves, and how he now stared at me.

We looked at each other.

One.

Two.

Three.

Four.

For  five seconds.

"D-Done!" he exclaimed and he quickly move away.

I clenched the strap of my bag, leaning my head on the window side. What w-was that?! I almost forgot how to breathe.

Jeonghan started driving, quietly.

It is so quiet it became more awkward!

"Can I t-turn the music on?" I asked.

"S-Sure," he approved without glancing back.

I opened the radio, turning the volume up.

~"Two old friends meet again
Wearin' older faces
And talk about the places they've been

Two old sweethearts who fell apart
Somewhere long ago
How are they to know
Someday they'd meet again
And have a need for more than reminiscin'

Maybe this time
It'll be lovin' they'll find
Maybe now they can be more than just friends
She's back in his life
And it feels so right
Maybe this time, love won't end"~

What?!

I quickly changed the radio channel!

~" Baby come back,
You can blame it all on me,
baby come back, I was all wrong
I just can't live without you"~

What's wrong with the songs today?! For the third time, I changed it again.

~"Wherever you go
Whatever you do
I will be right here waiting for you

Whatever you say
or how my heart breaks,
I will be right here waiting for you"~

"Maybe I-I will turn of the radio and just sleep instead!" I exclaimed and turned of the radio. I closed my eyes as I leaned on the chair. "Wake me up when we arrived."

"O-Okay," he replied.

Damn! That was so so so so so so so awkward!

I opened my eyes.

Did I fall asleep?

I stretched my arms and groaned, "Hmmm." When I sat up, I saw the beach! "Woah! Jeonghan we are at the...!"

Jeonghan is sleeping on the driver's seat, and I saw his his jacket wrapped on me.

"Idiot. Why did you not wake me up?" I mumbled, a smile formed into my lips.

He said he already forgot me. Still, Jeonghan is the same Jeonghan I met before. A caring guy who is ready to give his jacket even thought he is freezing himself.

My hand slowly lifted, going to his side. All I want is to tap his head, to say he did great on moving on, and to thank him for accepting my decision.

But when I almost reach his head, Jeonghan grabbed my wrist and opened his eyes.

"I... I won't do anything," I explained, eyes widened. "I ... I just want to tap your head and..."

"I'm not a loser," he mumbled.

"Huh?"

"Because until now, I am hoping that there are still an 'Us'."

Jeonghan. He... He still... He still loves me?

~Tok tok tok~

Someone knocked on the car windows.

When we looked back, we saw him standing outside the car and glaring at us.

"H-Hoshi!"
