[ BiU Residency | 19th September | 5:49AM ]

Sunghoon accompany Hanbyeol at hers, he fell asleep in the girl room while waiting for her to sleep soundly. He flinch when he felt Hanbyeol move, his eyes fluttered open to see if she's awake before reaching for his phone to cancel the alarm that he set for 5:55AM so he won't wake the girl yet. He look over the girl side to see if her phone is on her other side.

He cross her upper body to take it but stop as he hear a groan from the girl making him stop and divert his gaze towards the female and see that her eyes fluttered before she slowly open her eyes fully. "you okay?" Sunghoon asked making the girl confused but then she remembered he came over last night. She released a low sigh before giving him a few nod, she have yet told him what happened. "why don't you take leaves today?I think you need more rest" Sunghoon continue but Hanbyeol shakes her head as response.

"I'm okay.." she whispered, making Sunghoon sigh before nod to the girl. Sunghoon then sit up on her bed making her to do the same, she slowly lift her head to face the guy properly, looking at him with her tired eyes. "won't you ask me again about what happened?" she questioned making the guy smile softly. "I..want to, but I feel that you'll be uncomfortable if I do so. i'll just wait until you're ready, you can take your time" He answered calmly.

Deep down in Sunghoon's heart, he is so worried that she'll cry again after waking up. He knew what happened but as the story is clearly incomplete, he still wonders about it. Hanbyeol let out a small smile before thanking the guy for respecting the space that she need. "I'll change your ringtone too, so I don't missed them anymore" Sunghoon utter making her surprised. "why?" She questioned, "I should protect you, don't I?you're my star afterall" He reply. Hanbyeol feel something something, but she doesn't know what is she experiencing but it feel weird. He haven't called her that for a long time.

"it's you" He utter, with a small awkward smile. "you're going back?" she asked making him nod, "you've worked hard today, rest well at home" she wish him with her sweet smile making the guy nod.

"but, where are you going? It's midnight" He couldn't help but asked. "ah, I'm going to the nearest convenience store..I got hungry" Yura answered making the guy nod, but then he remembered that the store is about 7 blocks away from the hospital and Hanbyeol accident cross his mind. "I'm going there too, I need to buy something" He said making the girl surprised.

the elevator stop at the building lobby, making the two make their way out of it. "then, should we go there together?" the girl carefully asked making him nod after a few second of hesitating. He couldn't help but worried if something bad happened to the girl.

"by the way, how old are you? you seem..young" Sunghoon ask as they walk out of the hospital building, "me?I'll turn 29 next month, I'm not that young" Yura answered as she grins, looking down on the street. "You must be 28 or something, you seem like it" She continue making the guy scoff, Yura turn to him in surprise. "I'm..32, actually" he correct her. "You're 32? you look too good to be 30's, you could claim to be a university student" Yura reply making Sunghoon giggle.

"I mean, my parents grant me that, I should thanked them" Sunghoon say making the girl nod. "wait-then you're an oppa to me.. should I fix that?should I call you Sunghoon oppa?" She questioned making the older chuckle before shaking his head. "I'm fine with anything, there's a few people under me that don't address me as hyung or oppa. just Sunghoon would be fine" He explained making the younger nod.

They chat about a few things before parting ways, and Sunghoon is a little impress with the girl. For the first time, someone don't bring up his work in a conversation, she don't mention about money nor dating, just a casual chat like someone would hold with their friends. He hates to admit that, He likes how the conversation flow, it feels like he is chatting with Hanbyeol.
