"do you think this will work?" Jeno asked.

"Of course, we cannot say it really works if we don't try right?" Jaemin answered.

"Why do we have to do it here?"

"Because we're the only person here and you know we should keep this as a secret including Renjun." Jaemin said, Jeno just raked his hair and started to zip the bag.

"Do you really want to go back from being a dog already?" Jeno suddenly asked.

"Of course... We are dogs so we better go back from what we are! We are not humans and we shouldn't let that happen forever-" Jaemin stopped and looked at Jeno.

"But what will happen to Renjun?" He asked himself. "Well, we're still on his side even though we go back from what we originally are" he added. Jeno was hesitant to do this. He doesn't want to go back yet.

"Now try to eat it!" Jaemin beamed, Jeno nodded and said "in the count of three, make sure to eat it together!"

And then they proceed to shove the dry dog food inside their mouth when they heard the door opening. Luckily they were hiding behind the boxes.

Jaemin peeked and saw someone trapping the other guy on the wall. The guy then started to punch the wall.

They heard a scared groan coming from a familiar person. He was genuinely scared.

"Just go with me, Renjun! After that I will let you go" the guy said.

Jeno heard it and his anger came. He doesn't want anyone bullying Renjun... His Renjun. Jaemin stood up and was about to stop Jeno but no. He cannot be stopped right now.

All Jeno could feel was anger.

He loosen up his tie and proceed to grab the collar of that guy and punched it hard on the face. Renjun was surprised and he saw Jaemin calling him.

Renjun sneaked out of that scene and went to Jaemin. Jaemin hugged him and did his best to just make Renjun stop crying.

"Jaemin... I'm scared" he said as he keeps on crying. That guy was Xion, he was one of his father's friend son. And he was given a task to get Renjun back to China.

And of course Renjun doesn't want that. He wanted to get away from his father, he was really worried about what happened to his mom. Since she was also suffered a lot.

"If you ever touch Renjun again, I will make sure you and your filthy soul will be back where they came from" Jeno said. And went to Jaemin and Renjun. He told them that they should get back now. And that's what they did.

"I don't feel like going to class right now" Renjun said. Jaemin was sure worried about him. He wanted to ask him what happened and who is that but he thinks it's not the right time for him to ask it.

"Are you sure? Can you go home alone? Or you'll wait for us?" Jaemin asked as he keeps on drawing circles behind him.

"I'll be on library, if mr. Ten finds me. Tell him I don't feel well. And also take care... Both of you" Renjun replied.

After that Jaemin and Jeno gave him a sweet smile before going back to their classes.

Renjun thought on what are they doing inside the store room. He wanted to ask but they already gone rto their classes.

Renjun entered the library, he saw Mr. Kun in front and greeted him hi. "You're here again because something is bothering you, mind telling me what it is?" Kun said

"Sure" Renjun said and went to get the nearest table and waited for kun's shift to be ended. Kun was one of Renjun's closest friend. Ever since he stepped this school before Renjun meet Haechan. Kun stood as his father-like, though Chenle is the reason why Renjun and Kun meet. Kun treated him as his child.

Kun smiled as he approached Renjun, he is holding two cups of hot chocolate.

"Here. I know you need it" he said, Renjun peeked at the cup and saw it was a chocolate drink. He giggled and started to sip on it.

"Now tell me. Is it because of your father again? Or it's that Jaemin and Jeno?"

Renjun was choked and was about to spit all the drink on kun but he stopped himself from doing so. He became red and can't stop but to just gave kun an awkward smile.

"It's not Jaemin and Jeno!" He protest. "Sure they isn't the reason" kun replied.

"It's my dad. Remember Xion? That fucking man tries to pursue me again why nearly harassing me. Kun i- I don't want to go back! They- my father is a monster. He should be placed and keep in hell!" Renjun shouted as tears started streaming down to his eyes.

"Shhh, keep your voice down sweetie" kun said. Some students glanced at their direction but other don't really care.

"What's your plan then?" Kun asked. "Of course i won't go back. They will protect me I'm sure. And you too... You won't let that fucker get me right?" Renjun asked.

"Of course, I still want to see the "norenmin" squad, walking with their hands tangled together" kun replied.

"What's a norenmin?" Renjun asked and took the last sip of the chocolate drink.

"Geez, jeNO RENjun jaeMIN. That's how it's a norenmin dummy" kun said.

Renjun nodded and just look at the window beside him. "I wish they won't go back"

"You know that spell was not forever Jeno."

"I know, that's why I won't try my best to go back from what we really are"

"Jeno, you're not- oh we are not fit from being a human. Jeno we originally sniff and just eat and play all day"

"Then you don't want to be with Renjun"

"That's not it... It's just- I'm scared Renjun will be attached to us and he'll feel lonely if we go back from what we really are"

"You know what? I wish I never born as a dog. I wanted to stay here and be with you"

"What?"

"Tch. Nevermind"
