Evelyn walk towards the room and open the door but stop when it's not even halfway through, because she hears Jay's voice, "let me tell you a story.." Jay utter as he ruffle Iris hair making the younger look at him as she slowly calms down, "there's one guy.. he lost everyone he have and loves and he gave up.. he gave up on living. But.. he then realize that, he don't actually want to give up as he realize that there are people that are willing to walk with him through the broken bridge until they all reach the flower path" Jay continue.

The older is surprise to hear and see a soft and positive side of the latter when all he has been is rough and negative. "All you need to do is to build your trust again even though it hurts you so bad.. And if you need a company, I can spare some time" Jay add as he let out a small smile while caressing the younger head, him holding back his own tears is evident to Evelyn.

The older take a deep breath before pushing the door open wide and walk into the room. She then let out a small smile as Jay slowly retract his hand from the younger awkwardly. "here, i bought you warm chamomile tea, in case you need it.." Evelyn hand Jay the drink which he accept after looking at it for a while. Chamomile tea can help reduce the symptoms of anxiety and improve sleep quality.

"are you two going out..?" Iris asked which caught the two off guard. "no" Jay answered calmly, "then why you two stick together and stay with me?" Iris continue making Evelyn let out a small smile as she sit on the edge of Iris bed, "we go to the same university, and we're working on an assessment together, that's why" Evelyn answered making Jay nod, not even bother to look up at the older. Evelyn then take out her notebook and write a few things on the papre before tearing it up and hand it to Iris. "that's my number, the second one is Jay's, if you need anything, just send me a text or call me, okay?" Evelyn utter making the teenager nod.

The two making their way home after realising the night is coming and they have dormitory curfew, "oh right" Evelyn suddenly stop walking in front of Jay making him frown, "unblock me, Park Jay" She continues making the latter sigh
