Everybody has darkness in them;
Some just know how to cover it up well

The morning came a lot earlier than expected. The sunlight fluttering through the window, that I forgot to draw the curtains of in my tired haze, tickled my skin and woke me up. I opened my eyes, squinting them a bit to get accustomed to the sunlight shining through. I streached a bit turned to my right to see the clock hung on the wall. Unable to see it clearly I brought my hand up to my eyes and rubbed them a bit rid of the blurriness. "I barely feel rested." I whispered to myself. "But the good thing is that the Uni doesn't start for the next week." I streached my arms and got up in a sitting position while continuing to talk to myself. "Well Until then I have plenty of time to get ready" I said as I got out of bed, "and ask Christopher some questions such as what is JeongIn's schedule" I continued mumbling to myself taking my toothbrush out of my suitcase that I have yet to unpack. Just as I was about to head towards the bathroom I heard the door to my room creak before opening fully with a slight force. I turned around to face the person that opened my door but before I could even fully gauge who it was a voice boomed "What are you doing?" It was JeongIn.
"Huh?" I questioned looking at him a bit dumbfounded and a tab bit embarresed to be caught in the act. "I asked Hyung... What are you doing? Why are you talking to yourself like a weirdo?" He asked again looking at me with what-the-fuck-are-you-upto expression on his face, eye brows raised. "Oh! That! I do that to organize my thoughts. Or when I need expert advice" I said the last part in a whisper. "Seriously Hyung? Expert advice? I think you need a therapist instead." He said with exasperation in his voice but at the same time it had a teasing tone to it. "What did you say?" I ask with a faux anger laced in my voice, eyebrow raised, hands crossed in front of my chest giving him a chance for a headstart which he takes after uttering an uh oh and runs off quickly leaving me to run behind him as well in an attempt to catch him.

We run through the lobby and down the stairs, "Innie, don't run down the stairs! It can be dangerous!" I shout at him trying to catch up to him. "Don't worry nothing will happen Hyung!!" He replied giggling as he reaches the last step safely without triping or anything filling me with relief yet out of breath cause I'm still running after him. I finally catch up to him when we reach the kitchen area. I lift him up on the kitchen slab and start tickling him to which he laughs loudly in reply. "Now tell me what did you say upstairs?" I ask still tickling him laughing a bit myself. "I— hahaha I— I said that you need hahahaha Hyung!!" He whine and laughs but continues "I said you need a therapist hahahaha" He replied laughing, "Oh! Is that so? You still think that?" I continue to tickle him "Yes— hahaha okay okay I'm sorry— hahaha No!! Hyung!! It hurts please— hahaha Please!! I'm sorry I— I don't think so anymore hahaha— oh god" His laughter dies down as I stop tickling him and lift him up and bring him close to my chest in a hug. "That's more like it" I said while chuckling holding him close to my chest ruffling his hair, he wraps his legs around my torso and hug me back while giggling. We stay like that for a while until he says that he's hungry.

"Aww. Our Innie is hungry?" I say patting his back and coaxing him to get down. "Let's make you something alright? What do you wanna eat?" I ask putting him down gently and looking around the kitchen to familiarize myself with it a bit. "Waffles! Hyung, I want waffles with Ice-cream" He said giving me puppy eyes which was unnecessary cause I would've gotten him anything and everything anyway. "Okay then! Waffles it is. Can you tell me where do you keep the batter and the waffle maker" I ask still trying to familiarize myself with the Kitchen. "The mix is in the cupboard and the waffle maker is on the kitchen counter." JeongIn replied. After getting all the stuff needed I started to make the batter, adding eggs in it and whisking. Once I was finished with the batter I turned to the waffle maker and poured it, closing the led and letting it be until the waffles are done. "So Innie can you tell me about your brothers? I mean like their schedule and stuff?" I asked turning towards JeongIn who was humming a song.

He perked up at the question and with a smile said "Sure! Channie Hyung is a music producer he works in Seo Entertainment owned by father. His producer name goes by CB97. Isn't he cool?" He asks rhetorically with sparkles in his eyes. "He goes to work at 9 in the morning and comes back laaaateee at night like 5 AM or something so I don't get to spend much time with him on weekdays. But on weekends he doesn't work so we spend time then. Minho Hyung is in 3rd year of Uni he is majoring in Psychology. He used to be in a Dance Unit in Seo Entertainment and his stage name was Lee Know people called him the dancing gem and he also used to make choreographies... But he doesn't Dance anymore." He said in a dull voice the sparkles fading along with his smile, "So for now he stays at home and just composes music and helps Channie Hyung at times. As for Binnie Hyung he is still in Uni 2nd Year and he is majoring in Creative Writing so he sometimes writes lyrics for Channie Hyung's music or sometimes Channie Hyung makes music for Binnie Hyung's writing. He is also an underground rapper and goes by the name SpearB." He continued the sparkle in his eyes reignited while talking about his Hyung. "My hyung-dul are such cool people I hope when I grow up I can follow in their footsteps." He finishes with a bright hopeful smile.

I smile at his admiration for his reaching out and ruffling his hair, "I'm sure you'd be just as cool and amzing like your Hyung-Dul and maybe even better who knows." I said and the alarm of the waffle maker went off signifying that the waffles are ready. I turned to take out the waffles shifting it from the maker to a plate. "Is there Ice-cream in the fridge Innie? And what about chocolate sauce?" I said making my way to the refrigerator and opening the freezer, "Ah! Never mind I found it." I said without giving JeongIn a chance to respond, taking out the chocolate Ice-cream and opening the refrigerator and taking out the chocolate sauce. I turned around and saw JeongIn pouting at me which confused me a bit, "What happened? Why are you pouting?" I asked baffled by the sudden change of his mood. He looked me in the eyes, "You asked me a question but cut me off even before I could answer it. That's not nice." He humphed and crossed his arms to signify his displeasure, making me giggle at his cuteness. When he threw me a glare I tried to contain my giggle and coughed a bit to cover up my giggles, "Okay I'm sorry Innie. Will you pretty please forgive me? " I asked JeongIn in my cutesy high-pitched voice which surprised him as he looked at me in awe, "Woahhh... You can do that too? Your voice is a mystery Lixie Hyungie. How do you do that? One minute it's deeper than the ocean and the other just like Mickey Mouse's laugh." He says while standing up and mimcking ㄴ(°∆°)ㄱ emoji forgetting all his anger.

I laugh at his antics, "Does that mean I'm forgiven?" I ask tilting my head to the side to which his replies "No! You're NOT!" And humph–ing once more and getting off the counter and going to sit on the dining table. While he does that I prepare the waffle adding the ice-cream on top and drizzling some chocolate sauce on it, "well, I guess I need to throw this away then? And that sucks cause I put so much of effort into this." I said feigning sadness. He perks up at that and sees the plate with waffles in my hand, "Oh, no. I was just joking. I'm not mad anymore. Can I have rose waffles?" He said with pure innocence and making grabby hands at the plate. I chuckled at him and brought him the plate of waffles and ruffled his hair again, "Enjoy, Innie! Oh by the way when do you go to school?" With waffles stuffed in his mouth he replied, "The same time Minho Hyung and Binnie Hyung leave for Uni, at 9-ish? But I still have some days off."

With that he finished his breakfast, "I'm gonna go and draw something Lixie! Tank you for the breakfast!" He said as fled off but not before giving me a kiss on the cheek. I chuckled at his antics again as I saw him run off and once he was out of my sight I sighed a bit and started to clear the table and wash the dishes. Once I was done with that I headed to my room again to take a bath pulling out clothes from my suitcase and picking up the toothbrush that was already on the bed and went towards to bathroom. As I was getting ready to take a bath I started to think about the events that took pace a while ago and started giggling until a thought settled in my mind;

How did JeongIn know I was talking to myself when I was literally whispering to myself?
