this is the third day jay has been sick. it's currently six in the morning and he hasn't slept since. ever since jungwon took him to the park his condition worsened but still, jay managed to stay strong.

jay messily got his pain killers on the night stand. he swallowed the pills, he didn't really mind drinking water so he dry swallowed the pills. still, he didn't feel better.

he couldn't explain the pain. he wasn't physically in pain, he isn't sad nor mad, he wasn't in any form of agony. he felt...empty.

he quickly grabbed his phone and directly called jungwon.

"hyung, i just woke up what's–"

jungwon stops talking as he heard jay's soft sobs. his heart shatters. "hyung? are you alright? i could take a day off school to take care of you." jungwon says with a worried tone. "no no, jungwon. i just needed to hear your voice." jay sniffled. jungwon sighs over the phone "did you take your medicine?" jungwon asks "i took too many.." jay says bluntly.

"the pain killers don't help with my emptiness, jungwon."

"..."

jungwon stayed silent, frozen and out of options.

"hearing your voice is enough for me."
