"Oh wait, before I go could you bring me my laptop?" Kim Dokja asked just before Han Sooyoung was about to shut the door. "Yeah, up in your room right?" she asked. "Mhm, it has a sunfish sticker on it."
A grin played on Han Sooyoungs's lips "A sunfish huh." she left to go upstairs, and quickly returned with Kim Dokja's laptop in hand. "Here ya go." she handed it to him tenderly.
"Thanks, goodnight Han Sooyoung." Kim Dokja stepped away with a wave.
Han Sooyoung had a soft smile on her face "Night." and then the door closed.
Kim Dokja returned to the car where Yoo Joonghyuk was leaning forward his head resting on his hands. Kim Dokja entered the car and sat the laptop next to him. "Let's go back." Kim Dokja nudged him. Yoo Joonghyuk's eyes landed on him with a silent acknowledgment he started the car.

They were finally back at his room, Yoo Joonghyuk, and had left to go get some food at the cafeteria leaving Kim Dokja alone. He staggered towards his bed supporting himself with a wobbling arm. He was surprised he hadn't collapsed out of exhaustion long before. His breaths were fleeting every time he tried to take a full breath it got cut off sharply. His breaths quickened as he bent over clutching at his stomach tightly. His head pounded painfully, and he managed to fall into his bed. "I'm ok." he thought in his head over and over as his hands dug into his stomach. His breaths were slowing. "I'm ok" he leaned back the pain slowly dissipating, although it left a dull throb throughout his body. Kim Dokja was tired his eyes were heavy and his body was sore. "I don't know how much longer I can do this.." he weakly closed his eyes and sunk his head into the pillow.
Yoo Joonghyuk opened the door "I grabbed you some fish and rice-" he realized Kim Dokja was sleeping and placed the tray of food on a counter. He was fast asleep. Yoo Joonghyuk placed a hand on Kim Dokja's head slowly stroking through his hair. For the first time in a while, he had a good look at Kim Dokjas's face. It was pale, paler than it had even been before. His eyes carried eyebags and his cheeks looked sunken. Yoo Joonghyuk ignored the pang in his heart. He was slowly watching the love of his life wither away. Life had been so perfect, everything was happening so quickly. He sat back down in his chair his hand held onto Kim Dokjas. "Goodnight, Kim Dokja."

His chest was heavy, it was like he was breathing in fog. His breath caught in his throat and his eyes could barely open. He started to panic but his body refused to move. He managed to open his eyes the lights were harsh against his eyes. He felt horrible. Kim Dokja was worried that he would have enough coughing fit but the feeling gradually went away. As the feeling returned in his body he could feel a hand embraced in his his. "Yoo Joonghyuk..?" he breathed.
"Kim Dokja, are you feeling ok?" Yoo Joonghyuk was hovering over him.
"I think so." he took a shallow breath. The pain was going away but it left a throbbing feeling coursing throughout his body. They heard a quiet knock at the door. "It's Lee Seolhwa, can I come in?"
Yoo Joonghyuk opened the door for her, a familiar doctor walked into the room, she had a small smile as she approached the couple. "Good morning, how was your little trip?" she asked.
"It was great, thank you." Yoo Joonghyuk bowed his head down.
"No problem, Kim Dokja how are you doing?".
Kim Dokja pulled himself into a sitting position. "Not amazing," he said with an airy chuckle. Lee Seolhwa frowned slightly "How are the pills working?"
"I haven't had a bad coughing fit since I took them, but I haven't been feeling great." Kim Dokja was careful with his words like he was stepping around glass. He didn't want Yoo Joonghyuk to worry about him any more than he already was.
"That is to be expected, Kim Dokja we should talk about some measures you should take for the," she paused her eyes locked with Kim Dokjas "future."
Kim Dokja inwardly flinched, Yoo Joonghyuk's face shifted and his gaze hardened. "I know this is a hard topic but we will need to talk about it eventually."
"I'm sorry I don't think I can do this right now." Kim Dokja looked down at the ground. Lee Seolhwa stood up "I understand, later today you will have another chest x-ray to see how your situation has evolved." With a click, she left the room and left a thick silence hanging in the air.
"Yoo Joonghyuk could I have a moment." Kim Dokja asked looking up at him. Yoo Joonghyuk was surprised by the sudden request. Why would he want to be left alone? It was like Kim Dokja could read his thoughts, he immediately noticed Yoo Joonghyuk's confusion. "Don't worry I only need like 5 minutes." he assured.
"Alright, I'll be waiting outside." Yoo Joonghyuk replied and left the room.

Yoo Joonghyuk leaned against a neighboring wall and clicked on his phone. His eyes widened as he stared at his screen.

"Are you with Kim Dokja?" she talked fast and he could hear her shuffling on the other side. "Yeah, he's in his room." He responded.
Han Sooyoung took a sharp breath
"The kids are missing."
