Fourth reached home by evening and noticed his mother closing the store already. "Ma!" Fourth called her out, running into the store with a bright smile. "Let me help," He said as he started with the paper works. "Oi! Go up and wash up! You just came home, must be tiring!" She complains, pushing Fourth away from the till area. "I'm totally fine! It's you, who was working the whole day. Please, let me help," Fourth begs, giving his mother the puppy eyes. She gives in to him, sighing and shaking her head, allowing him to do whatever he wanted to.

Fourth jumps on his bed and lets out a sigh. Stretching his body out and hearing cracks, he groans and looked at his phone. After helping his mother, he showered and did his work, which by then was already nine. Fourth noticed Dunk's message, asking him to check on Phuwin. This made him frown. Phuwin seemed so fine when he dropped him off and the message was sent around that time. But Fourth decided it wouldn't hurt to call the older. Fourth waited as the ringing continues. He looked back at his phone which was on his ears and squints his eyes. It was weird that Phuwin wasn't picking his phone up when he would usually pick it up after around two rings. Fourth shrugs it off and decided to drop a text.

You alright?
Update me and Dunk ok?

With that, he places his phone on his nightstand, switching up the only light source of his room which was the lamp and got comfy under his blanket, closing his eyes and letting the exhaustion take over him.


"I just felt it was weird." Dunk sighs, looking at Fourth who continued staring at his unseen and unread message that he sent to Phuwin. It was a Tuesday morning and both males were sitting outside the Law facility. "No, it is...He didn't answer my calls nor did he see my messages," Fourth sighs helplessly. He didn't know what he should do. Visit him? He shook his head and looked back at Dunk who seemed to have figure it out. "Wait...Do you know what happened?" Fourth asked Dunk who flinched, shaking his head immediately. "No! I don't!" Dunk lies, looking away and getting up from the chair they were sitting on. "I'll head to class! I'm going to be late!" Dunk continued but was stopped by Fourth who grabbed him by the hem of his shirt. "You aren't going anywhere until you tell me!" Fourth whines. Dunk gulps, trying to pull the younger off him. "Oh! Dunk!" The said male turned his head and noticed Keen but as well as Gemini and his friends. "What in the world are you guys playing?" Keen chuckles at Fourth who had his arms wrapped tightly around Dunk's waist while Dunk was trying to pry them off. "Blame him! He isn't letting me off to class." Dunk groans, continuing to pry Fourth off him. Fourth gasped and looked at Gemini with his bright puppy eyes. "Do you know what happen to Phuwin?" Gemini gulps, his mouth opening as he spoke, "He came by yesterday t-" "Ahh...!" Dunk rushes to cover Gemini's mouth after successfully prying Fourth off when he wasn't focused. "Lemme talk to you privately!" Dunk jabs Gemini by his hips while dragging him off to somewhere else, making everyone look at them with confusion. "I knew he was hiding something from me!" Fourth whines. Keen looked at Fourth with his confused face. "What happened to Phuwin?" "That's what I'm asking! But Dunk isn't telling me!" Fourth groans, crossing his arms out of annoyance and anger. "Forget it! I'm heading to class first! This makes me so frustrated!" Fourth abruptly got up and rushed up the stairs of his facility. Keen tilts his head with confusion and looked back at Gemini's friend. "Trust, I wish I knew what is happening," Joong spoke up. "I'm pretty sure you know what's going on," Pond slaps his friend's back as he sighed. "It's nothing important, it's ok." Meen assured the other who frowns, nodding his head and interlinking his fingers with Sea who was smiling at him. "Let's go!" Keen exclaimed, dragging the other with him. "Since when were they close?" Pond frowns. "Trust me...I thought the first time they met was yesterday..." Joong answers.

"What is it!" Gemini groans, pulling Dunk's hands away from him. "What did Phuwin tell you?" Dunk asked with a concerned expression. Gemini hesitated, wondering if it was fine but in honesty, Dunk is a friend of Phuwin. He lets out a sigh, "Phuwin is giving up on Fourth, he seemed so affected yesterday when he told me." Dunk looked all lost. He clenched his fist and stared at his messages with Phuwin. How could he? When his friend was crying and losing his mind, he told him he was busy and didn't help him. He closed his eyes and rubbed it with his fingers, blaming himself for everything. "Thanks, Gem..." Dunk whispers, walking off while thinking his next step which was dropping by Phuwin's house and checking on him. Gemini looked at the concern Dunk walk off. He was worried about his cousin and the situation but he didn't know what to do. Feeling helpless, he walked back to his facility and decided to check on Phuwin after class,
