The rain had started to slow down a bit but still poured in causing the young man who sat wearing only his pants on the floor beside the bed, leaning against the bed smoking, to look straight ahead lost in thoughts. White smoke spewed from time to time. The electricity had not returned yet. Disco brushed his hand through his hair, tensed. He turned to look at Jump's small figure lying face down on the bed. The small figure had closed his eyes breathing in and out regularly. Disco brushed his fingers through his bare, sloping shoulders all the way down to his back before reaching out and pulling the blanket that was covering his thin waist to come up to cover his whole body.

“Sigh.” Disco sighed lightly. The memories of previous events, both Jump's voice and face played out in Disco's mind.

Suddenly!
The lights in the room came back. The young man turned to look at the clock and saw that it was past 4 am.

//It's been gone for a long time// Disco complains softly before getting up and going to the bathroom to wash his face. He hadn't slept at all. The young man came out and put on his old clothes. He looked at Jump sleeping on the bed with a thoughtful expression on his face before going to open Jump's wardrobe to manage something.

"Jump, wake up, get up and get dressed," Disco called Jump in a calm voice slightly shaking the youth's arm. Jump slowly opened his eyes. A sharp pain ran down his hips and his eyes felt so heavy that he could hardly open them.

"Ugh," Jump let out a soft sound from his throat. Disco then scooped Jump up and helped him sit on the bed.

“It hurts,” the young man exclaimed before slowly falling asleep again.

“Put some clothes on first,” Disco said back before holding Jump up and slowly managing to dress him up because he saw that the young man couldn't wear it himself and fell asleep again. After finishing dressing Jump up, Disco took the backpack that he had prepared to carry on one shoulder and then scooped the sleeping youth up and held him in his arms before walking out of the boy's room.

Disco carried the boy down to the ground floor of the house and walked to the front of the house to stand and wait for something. Before long, Disco's car arrived straight into the parking lot because he had called the driver earlier to come to pick him up at Jump's house. The young man didn't think to take Jump out on a motorcycle because it looked like the youth still couldn't wake up easily and he was still hurt.

The driver immediately came down to open the door for Disco when he saw him carrying Jump. Disco adjusted Jump to sit in the car and sat beside him to support him. The young man had left a note on Jump's door to let Jim know. As for his motorcycle, he decided to collect it later on.

“Will you go home?” asked the driver.

“Yes,” Disco replied shortly while supporting Jump. The young boy frowned slightly because he felt pain all over his body. Jump remained asleep until he arrived at Disco's house. The strong man carried Jump out of the car.

"Oh, where are you going this early in the morning," Aunt Jai, who woke up to prepare food, walked out and asked when she saw Disco carrying Jump in his arms to the small house.

“Going to my house. Aunt Jai, please unlock the door for me," Disco asked Aunt Jai to unlock the door for him because he was holding the sleepy boy in his arms. When the door of the house opened Disco took Jump into the bedroom and gently lay him down on the bed

“He is here and still asleep. Why didn't you wake him up?" Aunt Jai asked puzzled.

"I tried to wake him up, but he didn't wake up, so I had to bring him like this. Oh, Auntie. Anyway, please cook some soft food for Jump. I think I'm going to sleep for a while," Disco said in a normal tone.
