[Seven's POV]
Ring. Ring. Ring. Meow. Ring.
I turned at the source of the sound. I smiled at Siyeon and picked her up. She snuggled to my chest and purred softly. I sighed.
A week had passed. It's time for Siyeon to go back to her own house. I'll miss her… Only a week living with her was enough to make me attached to her too much. If she's a human, maybe I had already run away, hiding like a cockroach and disappeared from her world. But she's a cat. Not a human. I guess it's alright for me to get close to her. Since she's not a human, she won't get hurt because of the agency. Right?
Is that really the case? Aren't you just too afraid to experience loss one more time? A small, depressed voice echoed in the back of my head. I clenched my jaw.
I… don't want to lose something precious to me anymore. I want to take back what had been stolen from me… I've promised myself to save Saeran… Even if Siyeon and I have to part now, I'll focus on saving Saeran…
But, your selfish self actually wants Siyeon to be here when I came back from saving Saeran, or even be beside you when you save Saeran…
Siyeon is not mine… I have to say goodbye tomorrow… I tried to shove the dark thoughts away. But it continued to echo.
But you still want her. Like the way you want 'that girl'…

[Siyeon's POV]
Saying goodbyes are painful…
"It's been a week…" I saw Saeyoung put down his phone. He reached down to cradle me in his arms. I snuggled to his chest and purred. He smiled bitterly then sighed.
"Siyeon…" I heard his voice softly whispered. His voice cracked. He laughed breathily. I stared at him. He looked at me sadly.
"Please, don't go…" He whispered, followed by a small sob and tears.
"Look what you have done to me… I became such a crybaby…" His body trembled slightly. He smiled at me with sorrow. I mewled softly and nuzzled my nose to his nose. Don't cry Saeyoung… You'll make me sad too…
"I don't want to be separated from you…" He breathed. I don't want to either, Saeyoung…
That night both of us didn't get any sleep. He kept me beside him all the time. Sometimes he sobbed, sometimes he laughed telling me how foolish he was. He nuzzled his face to me, to my head, to my neck, everywhere. He played with the small bell on my collar. He kissed my head, scratched my ears softly. He stared at me lovingly, longingly.
The only thing brought us back to the reality was the ringing of his phone. It was Hyeorin. She wanted me back.
We drove to Hyeorin's place with my belongings. He drove very slowly and kept glancing at me. I purred and curled on his lap. He smiled and kept driving. When we reached the apartment, Hyeorin muttered a small thanks and I kept looking at Saeyoung's direction. I didn't even listening to Hyeorin's voice.
"Goodbye…" He whispered to me and placed a small kiss on my forehead. My breath hitched. I trembled. I jumped down from Hyeorin's arms quickly and ran into the apartment. I whimpered under the sheet covering my small bed.I listened quietly to the sound of his car driving away and the sound of the front door shutting. I curled more under the sheet.
Goodbye, Saeyoung…
