Summary
Checking his Instagram wasn’t an everyday thing. So Wonwoo missed the story with the New York apartment packed up in boxes. He missed the selfie with Minghao on the flight. He missed the shirtless picture at Runyon captioned “So glad to be back.” But it was only a matter of time before he caught one. Mingyu and Minghao, on air mattresses on their new apartment floor, surrounded by snacks Wonwoo knew that Mingyu didn’t usually eat. A projector hooked up to a phone, playing the Bad Romance music video. The caption that had haunted his mind. “Making the best of waiting for the truck.”
Wonwoo let his anxiety wash over him. He’d been barely holding it back all day. Mingyu was back in LA. And he’d see him tomorrow.

Going down that road would be a bad idea. There's too much history. But that history may be too hard to ignore.
