"that was really cool in there." chenle said, throwing his arm around jihyun's shoulders as the group walked up the stairs.

"i thought it was time we finally took control." she said, wrapping an arm around his waist.

"and you thought right." jaemin added.

"anyway, i'll see you all later. i need to check up on hana. i'll see you all at breakfast tomorrow." she said, squeezing chenle's waist before departing to the left where hana's room was. thankfully, everyone was placed in rooms close by so it wouldn't be a trek to go talk to one another.

"hana." jihyun softly knocked on the door but didn't get a response. "i'm coming in, okay?"

the door clicked open and she stepped in and quietly clicked it shut. she called out for the older girl one time but she was nowhere in sight. she was about to leave but heard some noises from the bathroom.

"hana?" she knocked on the door.

"y-you can come in." the older replied, her voice muffled but jihyun could hear the sadness in it.

"were you crying?" she asked, opening the door. she saw hana sat on the closed toilet seat a small white tab in her hand. "what's that?"

"it's a pregnancy test." she replied and then placed a hand on her forehead, rubbing it. "fuck. jihyun, i'm pregnant."

"you're pregnant...?"

jihyun wished she could have been jumping up and down on the spot, screaming in excitement and going over to hug the girl and then doyoung. but doyoung's gone... and hana only has jihyun now. soon a baby will come along and grow up without a dad just like jihyun did. she didn't want that. she wouldn't wish that on anyone.

then hana started sobbing and jihyun kneeled in front of her, placing her hands on her knees.

"hana, we'll get through this together i promise. i'm here for you, my family are here for you. everyone is. okay? we'll get through this."

"y-yeah."

"come on." she took the tab from hana's hands, placing it on the sink then stood up, holding her hands out for her to take. "you need some rest."

she helped her get into bed and laid beside her, playing with her hair until she fell asleep. she stayed with her for as long as possible but then jihyun couldn't stand it anymore. she had to get out, to breathe. she felt claustrophobic underground where there were no stars to look at or mountains to climb. she didn't even know if it was night and everyone could be lying to her.

double checking that hana was asleep and okay, she left the room and made her way towards the stairs, only to find it was being occupied by seven people. she smiled softly and joined them, sitting on the stairs between jeno's legs.

"what are you guys doing up?"

"couldn't sleep." jisung mumbled, his head resting on renjun's shoulder.

"i guess we all had the same idea to come out here." chenle said.

"yeah, i couldn't sleep either." jihyun said, leaning her head back to look at jeno who smiled in response and began playing with her hair.

"what's keeping you up?" he asked and her mood changed.

"i was looking after hana."

"oh no. is she okay?" mark asked.

"no, she's not." she mumbled, feeling her eyes sting. "she's pregnant."

"with doyoung's baby..." renjun whispered, his heart aching for the woman. "fuck. she must be so distraught."
