⚠️some parts are about having anxiety, depression. trigger warning ⚠️

"What happened?? Two years since when god dammit!" Jiseun pushed Minho. 

"Since you left me." Jiseun heard a familiar voice.

Her eyes are starting to get teary, she gulped nervously.

The boy she loves, is now a man. "Long time no see." He continued.

It was Hyunjin, he got taller, puberty really hit him hard.

He walked closer to Jiseun, his eyes are too focused on her, oh how much he misses her, he wants to touch her again, kiss her again, and love her again.

Even she left just like that and returned just like that, Hyunjin still loves her.

But then he remembered, they're not together anymore, and the fact that Jiseun came with Yeonjun, made him realize, maybe they're dating.

All of the sudden, he walked away from her, he smiled.

Then he started running away.

"What happened?" Chan arrived, panting, "H-he ran away.." Jiseun said, she has no idea what just happened, Yeonjun caressed her back, "He's gonna be okay." He said.

"How about the plan hyung?" Jeongin whispered, "Cancel that. His health is more important." Chan replied.

"What? Health? Is he sick?" Jiseun heard them, Chan's eyes went big, he doesn't know what to answer, "You go rest with Yeonjun. You guys seems, to live with each other right?" Chan asked, no emotion, he sounded sarcastic.

"We'll see again later okay? We're sorry, but we have to handle this first.." Jeongin smiled weakly and they all ran after Hyunjin.

"What happened?" Jiseun furrowed her eyebrows, "Is he sick? Yeonjun do you know this?" Jiseun asked.

Yeonjun already knew what happened to Hyunjin, but he promised to them to not tell Jiseun about it.

Yeonjun shook his head, "No.."

"This is my fault.. I should've not left him just like that I.." Jiseun sniffed.

They stood there for a couple of seconds and suddenly Yuta appeared again, panting.

"We need help." He chuckled and rolled his eyes, his smile disappeared when he saw Jiseun, shedding a tear. "What happened?" He asks.

"I'll tell you later, now's not the right time." Yeonjun said while patting Jiseun's back, "How about you? What's the problem?"

"We have trouble finding taxi." Yuta smiled weakly, scratching his head.

-

"I didn't know that your ex was Hyunjin!" Haruto exclaims, Jiseun gave him a confused look, "You told us your story but you never told us who was the boy." He continued.

"It must be hard. I'm glad that you didn't worsened his sickness." Haruto sighed in relief.

Yeonjun's eyes went big as Haruto said those words, he doesn't know what to do anymore.

Jiseun furrowed her eyebrows, she looked at Yeonjun, "What are you talking about, Haruto?" She then glanced at Haruto.

"He has anxiety and depression. But I'm really glad that he's doing fine now.. i think." Haruto answered, "Can we talk about this later?" Yeonjun said.

"Yeonjun do you know about this?!" Jiseun raised her voice, Mashiho and Yuta are just standing there, they don't know what they're talking about.

"Hey, that's enough. We'll do this later okay?" Yeonjun went in front of Jiseun and comforted her.

Jiseun aggressively pushed Yeonjun away from her, "Let's talk later."

-

"Hyunjin, open the door please!" Chan shouted from outside, they were knocking on the door for minutes.

"It's open." They heard Hyunjin from inside.

"Damn it Hyunjin you should've told us that the door was open!" Minho rolled his eyes. "Bro, You okay?" He asked.

"I still love her." Hyunjin said without hesitating.

"I think I should stop." He continued, Minho sat beside him, feeling sad for his friend, so as Chan, and Jisung. "Your choice man, as long as you're happy, and comfortable." Minho smiled and patted his head.

"Is he dating Yeonjun?" He asked, no emotions.

Jisung, Chan and Minho looked at each other nervously.

All of the sudden, the doorbell rang, they all flinched and Minho rushed to the door.

A young tall man was standing in front, wearing some thick clothes even though it was summer, "May I know you?" Minho asked, he was unfamiliar to the guy.

"Oh, I'm an old friend, of Hyunjin." Minho was shocked as he heard his voice, it was deep, like Felix's.

"Haruto?" Hyunjin called out his name and smiled widely.

"Bro! Long time no see!" Haruto reached out for a hug. The others went downstairs.

They meet each other and introduced each other's names, "It's nice meeting you, Haruto." Chan smiled, "I'm also friends with Jiseun tho." Haruto added, then they went back to being serious again.

"Yeah," Haruto noticed their reactions, "I know what happened. It looks like Jiseun didn't know about your health, Hyunjin."

"Where's Jiseun?" Jisung asked.

"With Yeonjun, probably arguing again." Haruto left out a small laugh, "Again?" Minho asked, "Yeah, again. They always argue, but in the end they turn out to be friends again, or i should say lovers." Haruto rolled his eyes.

"Lovers?" Jisung furrowed his eyebrows.

"Yeah. Lovers. Didn't you know? They act like a married couple in Japan, sometimes they sleep together." Haruto scoffed.

Hyunjin felt like he couldn't breathe.

He got attacked again.
