The blazing sun's light shone above Seoul, the morning breeze flowing through. The warm Friday morning accompanied by the gusts of wind passing through the city. The sounds of stores opening their doors chimed through the city, the engines of cars audible from inside the tall building of JYP Entertainment. The clean concrete steps leading to the glass doors, the beautiful glass reflecting the rays of sunlight. It was a beautiful and peaceful morning in Seoul. The beautiful rivers flowing, with the elegant koi fish in the waters, the beautiful clouds that were once there were absent. The warm rays of sunlight hit Lia's face as she stirred awake. She opened her eyes slowly but being met with the beams of light made her shut her eyes again. A groan  escaped her lips as she turned in her bed. Her arms stretched out, groaning from the feeling of the remaining evidence of sleep slowly dissolved in her body. She sat up opening her eyes yawning a bit before she threw her blanket off of her legs, being met by the cold temperature of her own room making her shiver a bit. Her foot met the cold hard wood floor as she lazily walked to her bathroom. She washed her face thoroughly, shaking off any remnants of sleep left in her body. After her morning routine she walked to her table to grab her cell phone. Her eyes landed on the Vase, the glass vase reflected the beautiful rays of light, highlighting the dozens of roses that sat inside of it. Lia scoffed grabbing the Vase and yanking the beautiful flowers out of the Vase, she stared at the flowers with anger "You, You're just like other guys." She said, her voice raspy yet unstable. Her eyes stared at the beautiful petals of the roses. As if she was trying to convince herself to throw away any remnants of her liking towards the person she last talked to, she walked out of her room to the hallways of their dorms. Her feet stomping against the floors as she sped up her walking. Once she reached the nearest trash bin she threw the roses in without hesitation. Her heart rate quickened from the walking but she carried on with her day. She tried her best to distract herself from the thought of Y/n. The thought of her liking Y/n in a certain way. Lia walked to the living room seeing Chaeryeong staring at her with confusion. Chaeryeong saw everything, the anger that Lia radiated when she held the roses, she saw how relieved Lia was when she threw the roses away. "I don't want to talk about it." Lia said dismissingly as she sat on the couch, her eyes focused on the colorful television.

Inside the Vortex dorms, Kyung-jae along with Jun-seo tried their best to piece together a meal as Tae-woo and Min-kyu were talking to their leader. Y/n slumped against the soft cushions of their sofa as he groaned. He cried his heart out the night before and now he was having trouble breathing and had a terrible headache, they had already called their managers but their managers lived at least 30 minutes away from the JYP Entertainment Building so they had to wait. Y/n groaned holding his head in his hands, he was hyperventilating as he tried his best to piece himself together. He knew he had to be a leader, but his emotions that he had previously never let out was getting the best of him. His mind had a hurricane full of regret and dark thoughts that he couldn't even focus on breathing. He hated the thought that the others had to see him like this but he couldn't control himself as his eyes started to water from all the constant pain he felt. He felt weak, his throat clenched again and again, which didn't help the fact already had trouble breathing. He tried to soothe himself with the thought of he would be better but he couldn't deny the fact that the hurt of someone he liked calling him disgusting. Y/n shook his head as he wiped his eyes. He slowly regained his breath, he heard the words coming out of Tae-woo and Min-kyu's mouth but he couldn't focus on understanding them so Y/n just rasped out "Shut up.". His voice was fragile and so was he but he knew he had responsibilities. Y/n stood up his breathing slowly became stable, he focused on making food. Y/n pushed Kyung-jae and Jun-seo out of the kitchen "Go play or something, I'll cook." Y/n said in his fragile but raspy voice. Y/n's mind was still clouded but he focused on the food he cooked. The already sliced pieces of Garlic made his job easier as he focused on making some Honey Garlic Pork Chops. Y/n grabbed the pork chops that were in the bowl defrosting and placed them on a plate, he reached inside the cupboard and grabbed honey, ketchup, and soy sauce. His eyes were a bit swollen but he endured through it as he mixed the ingredients and whisked them together. After that Y/n preheated the pan before he glazed the pork chops with the newly whisked glaze before he placed a slice into the pan. He stirred it a bit before glazing it again, grabbing a meat thermometer and stabbing it in the middle. Once Y/n was done with the pork chops he placed them on a plate before he sighed. Y/n washed his hands and got 4 more plates and scooped a cup of rice for each. Y/n placed the pork chop on each plate carefully before drizzling a bit of honey on the top of each pork chop. Y/n carefully picked up two plates and walked to the living room. He placed the plates down before returning to the kitchen to grab another two plates. Y/n laid the plates before he grabbed his own plate and walked to the living room. Everyone had a worried look on their face, Y/n noticed so he just smiled reassuringly. "Don't worry, I was just tired. Go and eat, it'll get cold." Y/n said sitting down beside them. They all glanced at each other as Y/n grabbed the remote and started to pick out a show. The other boys eyed each other talking to each other without making a sound. They knew something was wrong by how fragile Y/n's voice was, his voice always had a bit of sternness and authority in them, they knew something was bothering Y/n but they didn't want to push it so they just started eating.
