In the club, the vibrant beats of the music pulsed through the air as Marcus, Elijah, Jake, Victoria, and Roy lost themselves in the rhythm on the dance floor. Meanwhile, Joong sat at the bar, nursing his gin, his thoughts wandering in the midst of the pulsating energy around him.

Victoria: (approaching Joong) Come on, Joong! Let's hit the dance floor!

She reached out to pull him up, but Joong shook his head, declining her invitation with a somber expression.

Joong: Not today, Vic. I'm not really feeling it.

*As Victoria persisted, Joong's gaze drifted across the crowded club, his mind preoccupied with thoughts of Steve's absence.*

Joong: (to Victoria) Have you seen Steve today?

Joong: (to Victoria) Have you seen Steve today?

Victoria: (concerned) No, I haven't. Actually, I think today is his mom's birthday.

The realization dawned on them, and without a moment's hesitation, they rallied the rest of their friends. In a flurry of movement, they hurried out of the club, their concern for Steve propelling them into action.

Marcus:(as they head to their cars) We have to go wish Steve's mom. She's always been so good to us.

With a newfound sense of purpose, they piled into their cars and set off, their destination clear in their minds as they raced to offer their birthday wishes to Steve's beloved mother.
