warning. mentions of suicide.

"what happened between you two, jeno and jaemin?"

mark had noticed that the two haven't even talked for a bit, and seemes so distant.

"jisung said it to me earlier that you two held a grudge against each other. so please, elaborate what exactly happend."

either of the two didn't answer. "think about it, i've seen you as inseparable, jeno, jaemin. wala akong nakikitang gulo sa inyo maliban sa asaran, halos magkapatid na nga kayo ehh—"

"yun na nga!" nagulat sila sa pagsigaw ni jeno. "ikaw na nagsabi hyung, hindi lahat ng friendships, perpekto. pero nung nalaman ko ang nangyari kay jena, hindi ko na alam ang gagawin ko sa kanya."

about jeno's younger sister. lee jena. her body was found in her room, hanged in ropes. jeno was devastated for about a year and they were there. of course mark didn't forget it until now. "i know that my sister is impulsive and head over heels for jaemin, but i didn't know that she asked him to be her boyfriend, and he turned her down."

yes, and the suicide is caused by her love for jaemin. jeno's bestfriend.

"jeno naman, hindi ko alam na gusto nya ako. and i turned her down in a nice way, hindi ko alam na ganon nya pala ako kagusto. i already asked for forgiveness diba? wag mo namang pairalin ang pride mo, jeno."

"tama si jaemin, jeno. i know you can't hate him that long. you shouldn't hate him more. ayokong magkawatak-watak ang grupo natin dahil dito." sabi ni mark. "we're family here. please, let's be in peace. masyado pang bata si jena nun. you should never stop disciplining her. as her older brother, you should guide her and teach her that what her mindset is, destroys her. i understand her becuase i've been there, dahil sa parents ko, hindi ko natuloy. because they never stopped telling me about it. and now, you should do the same thing."

"hyung, you all know how hard headed my sister is. what she wants, she gets."

"which is actually bad. hindi lahat makukuha nya." sabat ni mark.

jeno just washed his face with his hands. "i don't know, hyung. there's a part of me that made me want to kill him, and another part tells me to forgive him."

jaemin's heart felt a pang of pain, he knew that jeno couldn't even forgive him. he deserved it anyways.

"alam kong hindi maibabalik ng isang sorry ang lahat pero, sorry. sorry sa lahat. sa gulong nagawa ko sa pamilya mo. at sayo. i can't blame her, natural ding magkagusto, pero pasensya na kung hindi ako pumunta dun. hindi ako makakatakas sa pamilya. you know na tutol ang lola ko sa atin, at ayaw kong mawala kayo sa akin. so, sorry sa inyo, lalo na sayo, jeno."

chenle and jisung comforted jaemin while jeno is in tears.

"jeno, you can't hate jaemin. dahil magkaibigan kayo. kapag wala kami, kayo yung magkasama. isipin nyo ang mga alaala nyong dalawa, kesa sa nangyari ngayon. sayang naman kung hindi nyo pinahalagahan yun, tuloy magmumukhang peke."

hearts heavy by the burden of the past. the once beautiful friendship, became a tragic. and they carried that for almost a year. hindi ito alam ni mark dahil nasa canada sya non. hindi nila alam ang totoong rason bakit nya ito ginawa, ngayon alam na nya, gulo na ito para sa kanila.

mark don't know what to do. but most importantly, he wants them to be fixed.

"okay. i forgive you, jaemin."
