Chapter 56: Worrying About Nothing

Sung Joon stood frozen watching Kubo. Kubo had his back towards him. His hand was hovering in the air. It seemed that he was hesitating if he should knock on the door or not. Sung Joon hadn't seen Kubo like this before. 

His ears, that were usually perked up, were now down. His back was stiff and his hands were shaking. Sung Joon felt his heart ache. Since they've arrived, Kubo had been a source of positive energy for Sung Joon. Kubo knew just how to make him laugh and relax. 

The Kubo in front of him looked vulnerable and hurt. 'It's my fault.' He took a step, startling Kubo. "Su... Sung Joon! I... I. Where did you come from?" Kubo was staring at him with big eyes. Sung Joon took two steps before stopping again. 

"I... I was looking for you." Sung Joon gave Kubo a gentle smile. Kubo's ears were now flat on his head. Sung Joon clenched his fists. This was not what he wanted, when he told Kubo about his feelings. He had thought that Kubo felt the same.
