A Fight For Integrity

XXXI | Sudden

The eight boys came back to the house along with Hyejin empty handed. They haven't got what they wanted. They still were far away from destroying what is capable of destroying the whole world. Everyone seemed dull and they didn't know what else to do. With the sun their hopes too set off. Everyone returned to their rooms not wanting to talk to each other. Meanwhile Minho prepared something to eat for dinner. All they had was breakfast that day. The dinner was exceptionally quite as everyone was deeply thinking of the consequences that they would face if Jaehyun regained his power.

"Jeongin take some more. You are barely eating" Minho insisted him and put some more meat on his plate. "I don't have much appetite hyung" Jeongin said with a cold tone. Chan looked much worried about him compared to everyone else.

It was around eleven o clock when the dinner wrapped up with Minho and Hyunjin washing the dishes and everyone going back to their respective rooms. Jisung made his was to his room but he thought of visiting Hyejin. "Yaa can I come in?" Jisung said knocking on the door. "Hmm you can" her voice seemed a lot down. Was she sad? Jisung thought.

"You alright?" Jisung said sitting beside her on the bed facing the window. "Let's pretend I am." Hyejin said with a deep sigh. "Life is not how we imagine it. There are surprises in every step. We have to endure it and try to move on. " jisung said. "But some surprises tend to play with our mind. And feelings" she said. "True though but feeling something is not wrong. It's okay to feel different for or towards someone or something." Jisung said turning his gaze from the window to Hyejin and looking into her eyes.

"What is the solution for this?" Hyejin asked. "Just leave it on time. When the real time comes you will eventually know what to do" Jisung said and got up. "I want to ask you something else"Hyejin said getting up too. "Go on I am listening" he said keeping his hands in his pockets. "What did you feel towards Minho when you realised you like him? And when did it happen?"

"Hmm that's hard to say when. I actually don't know when it happened. But i can say I fell gradually. And about the feelings. At first I felt nervous around him and tried my best to impress him. Whenever he smiled I felt my heart warming up. Whenever he touched me I felt butterflies in my stomach and felt like shivers going through my spine. Whenever he was himself I liked it. I liked the fact that I was with him"

"Eww clichè" Hyejin said laughing. "you asked only" Jisung laughted. "I'll head to my room now. Good night Hyejin-ah" Jisung said leaving the room. Hyejin fell on her bed closing her eyes.

Hyunjin kept on washing the dishes and Minho wiped them with cloth and kept them in places. "Hyung what are you thinking?" Hyunjin said to Minho who was spacing out. "Ahh nothing. I am just worried about Felix" Minho said wiping the next plate. "Hyung we will eventually find something to end all of this. Don't worry and go get some sleep. I'll finish the rest" With that Minho went back to his room and Hyunjin did the rest.

The night was long, to all of them the night was Neverending sadness and worry. Everyone tossed and turned in despair for the loss of one important thing that would lead them to success. Hyejin laid looking at the moon while Minho and Jisung turned to opposite sides without talking a word.

Chan and Jeongin did the same and Seungmin sat on his bed with not a sleeping Changbin beside him. Hyunjin didn't know what to do after finishing his work. He went back to his room and started looking at the pictures in his phone. As for Felix he just sat on his bed not knowing what to do.

He felt helpless once again and at this point only his father could help him out. Without thinking further he left the house once again and made his way to his home, his palace. Without Seungmin the way was really long. Felix just remembered that he could fly so taking no time he got in his realm. It was again peaceful. Everything was peaceful. Felix's legs lifted from the land as he opened his eyes.
