Minas POV

Kitchen

The kettle hummed softly in the kitchen, steam rising as I poured hot water into a delicate porcelain cup. Tzuyu had been resting in the bedroom, and I wanted to bring her something warm to help her start the day. Just then my phone buzzed on the counter. A quick glance revealed Nayeon's name lighting up the screen. Curiosity piqued, I unlocked it and found a message paired with a link.

Nayeon

Is this true?

Nayeon

ClebGossip: Shocking news as its been rumoured that Chou Tzuyu has schizophrenia as Chou Mina was caught buying medication for it last night.

I stared at the message from Nayeon, my fingers hovering over the screen. I didn't know what to say, didn't know how to confirm or deny it. Instead, I took a deep breath. Carrying the tea, I walked into the bedroom.

Our Bedroom

 Tzuyu was sitting up now, her hair slightly tousled, her delicate features still carrying traces of sleep.

"Good morning", I said softly, placing the tea on the bedside table.

She smiled faintly, her voice groggy.

"Good morning".

I hesitated, my heart heavy.

"Tzuyu... I'm sorry".

Her brows knitted together.

"About what?", she asked.

Wordlessly, I handed her my phone. She took it, her eyes scanning the article. I watched her closely, waiting for anger, for frustration, for anything. But instead, she looked back at me, her expression calm.

"It's okay", she said simply, handing the phone back.

I blinked, unsure if I heard her correctly.

"It's okay? But I accidentally revealed your medication. People think you have schizophrenia now because I was stupid and didn't put it in the bag. I should've been more careful----".
