--------------------------- 

Hyunjin woke up to only find himself in his old damn room, he might not know how to talk but he knows the curse, so he did on his mind. He does not know what happened, how he ended up getting back to the place he tried to run away from. He never thought that it has something to do with Jisung because he was too nice to him to the point he let Hyunjin stay at his house for two whole nights.

unlike the usual Hyunjin, he ran out of energy, he ran out of motivation to do the simplest things like drinking a glass of water, he did not even think of Minho, he sure misses him, but he just can not keep up for so long, being alone, the sudden and unplanned change of rutin, he was just full of everything... he lost the will to live, but out of energy to even care. It's the morning, Hyunjin still in bed, he flipped once every five to ten minutes. he hasn't eaten for days, less water, and bored, all the time.

meanwhile at Minho.

they did keep their promise, Minho is back, it took some time and effort to move him without any physical touch or out for too long. Minho was so excited to see Hunjin, he misses him so much he just can not wait to look at Hyunjin's face, and to laugh at the troubles he put everyone through; he makes Minho feel free, like out of his room like a more normal life, the life he thought it was a curse but after a while, he comes to release that everything is planned for a reason to see who can take it more. now Minho is not religious, but he loved old stories and legends, he believes that everything he goes through has a big meaning or it was just to meet Hyunjin, the half of his heart, the wings that are missing, the red string that connects them no matter what. 

but

little did Minho know, Hyunjin was out of it all.

he passed through Hyunjin, he wasn't as bright as always, not as steady as a line, dark vibes rounded him. Minho felt like he losses Hyunjin when he has his depression episodes, he just can not help to feel just what Hyunjin feel even though he knows every action Hyunjin do is because of his disorders. 

may not know but Minho always has pads on his neck, to cover the hole that is dug on his neck. He hates it, he never showed it to anyone, not even the nurses, he always asks for pads to put it on instead of the old one, he never thought of it as something to show off or a mark of "survival" it is just a hole that made him lose his voice have much more insecurities and feel more anxious.

"God I hate seeing it more than showing it, " Minho thought to himself as he cut the pads with a pair of safety scissors, it was small, and it looked like a black hole, it triggered Minho a lot, he wrapped the pads as fast as he can so he couldn't see it anymore. 

he threw himself on his bed touching his neck and feeling the empty circle, he thought of Hyunjin, he wanted to see him, he wanted to feel normal again, but as soon as he thought of much he needed Hyunjin for personal feelings like home, and not feeling lonely, he thought he was selfish and using Hyunjin for some emotional advantage.

both of the boys have no phones, that's why they were sending paper massages in plastic lunch bags or anything where they can not touch each other. Hyunjin hasn't eaten or left his room, so is Minho didn't want anything or do as much.  not a lot of nurses noticed that everyone was too busy to care for the slighted bit.

not Chan though.

"Hey Hyunjin," Chan said as he entered Hyunjin's room without knocking, it was after 10 pm that means no one can walk in the halls except for emergency and with a nurse.  When Hyunjin heard the door open he cover himself even more with his wight blanket, he does not know what time is it so he thought Chan just got him food.

"Minho is back, he has been back for a couple of weeks, why don't you come with me and see him?" Chan requested for Hyunjin to make him move a bit and make him feel better. Hyunjin showed his face and looked at Chan in the eyes for less than a second to just move his sight to his right side and nod.

"Come on then," Chan said as he pulled Hyunjin from his hand to get out of bed to only look shockingly at the pale skinny Hyunjin, he looked like all might but worse. Chan wrapped his arm around Hyunjin's shoulder to give him some support and held his hand, he knows Hyunjin wouldn't be able to walk alone without any kind of support.

Hyunjin was walking slowly, like an old man. The bad thing is Minho's new room was even farther than his old room, but they got there eventually.
