Present Day

I swung our hands back and forth as I was in a good mood. He gave me a warm smile and I vowed once again to always see a smile on his face. "What are you thinking about?" "Your smile. The one that creates sparks in my heart and brightens my day." He lightly chuckled then pulled me closer. "I smile because I'm able to be with you." However, I couldn't seem to do that well in the beginning when we started to get to know each other.

Flashback

I threw my papers up in the air and tossed my bag towards the wall. "He's having his break down again..." "I don't blame him. It's not all peaches and cream being the CEO's assistant. Especially when he leaves all the daunting tasks to him." "Should we call him...?" "Probably." I pulled on my hair while quietly sobbing. It was becoming too much for me. I was slowly losing my patience and sanity. As usual, I hid behind my desk and shut my eyes. I needed to get away, I had to.

I felt someone shaking me and saw Younghoon looking at me with worry. "I have to get back, but I brought Haknyeon along." I looked and saw him standing next to us. "Let's go home." "No...I have to keep working..." I started crying again as I sat up. "You can work at home, Sangyeon. Come on." I took his hand then looked at my office. It was messy with papers strewn about and things knocked over. I shuddered as I observed the scene.

I sat on the couch and waited for Haknyeon to come back. He placed a bowl of leftover soup in front of me then sat next to me. I leaned against him then felt a few tears fall again. "What's wrong? Hm?" "I don't feel I can get anything done. He always says it's not enough, even when I constantly had it reviewed and previewed." He patted my thigh then told me to drink the soup. I pushed it away. "Come on, you can't starve..." "I don't want it..." He sighed then took it back into the kitchen. "Then I just won't feed you at all."

I lied down on the couch curled up in a ball. Haknyeon sat on the floor in front of me with a cookie. "Do you want this cookie?" "No..." "How could no one want a cookie?" I rolled onto my other side and sighed. If this is his way of cheering someone up, it certainly wasn't working. At all. I closed my eyes and let myself drift off and slip into little space.

I opened my eyes then proceeded to rub them. Haknyeon was no longer sitting in front of me. In fact, he didn't seem to be around. "ᴴᵃᵏⁿʸᵉᵒⁿ...ˀ" I slowly walked about looking for Haknyeon. I wanted hugs and food. I started becoming sadder with each empty search I made. I had started crying as I came to the conclusion that I was all alone. I sadly walked to the bedroom then curled up into a ball on my bed while cuddling a plushie.

"Sangyeon?" I quietly mumbled a response. "Sangyeonie..." I felt the bed dip and the familiar vanilla scent filled my nose. "Younghoon." "That's me. Do you want to play for a while?" "No..." He poked my cheeks then sat up. "Marshmallows...?" "No..." "Did Haknyeonie take good care of you today?" I shook my head then sighed. "He's a bad caregiver! Don't choose him ever again." I felt him stroke my hair and it made me slightly happier.
