Dino's weariness had reached its peak. They had been practicing non-stop. He was bone-tired, both physically and mentally, his energy reserves depleted from all the work. Each step felt like a heavy burden, and his eyelids drooped with the weight of exhaustion. As he moved through the day, the demands and inquiries from others seemed to increase exponentially. Questions piled up one after another, like a relentless assault on his dwindling patience. With each new inquiry, Dino's tolerance diminished, and his responses grew shorter and terser. He wasn't even able to rest in his own house, so when Joshua asked him a favor he lashed out.

"Hyung, just FUCK UP!" He exploded, his voice reverberating through the living room. All eyes turned to him, expressions ranging from shock to disapproval.

Jeonghan, always the mediator, stepped forward. "Apologize to your hyung right now" He insisted, his voice firm and unwavering

"Why don't you all leave me the FUCK alone!?" The youngest retorted, his frustration boiling over as he abruptly stood up from the couch, making a beeline for his room before anyone could respond.

Silence hung heavy in the air as Dino secluded himself in his room for what felt like hours. He sat there, contemplating the events that had unfolded, a mixture of pride and shame swirling within him. A pang of remorse tugged at his heart, particularly for Joshua, but his pride urged him to protect himself from embarrassing situations, such as saying sorry. Finally, he mustered the courage to step out of his room and face the members in the living room.

"Hyung, can we talk?" He tentatively addressed the third oldest, but there was no response. It didn't take long for Dino to grasp the situation. None of the members looked at him or acknowledged his presence. It was as if he had become invisible to them all.

'Fine' he thought to himself, a defiant resolve taking hold. 'If that's how it's going to be, then so be it.' Pride welled up within him, fueling his determination. Curiosity still lingered, however, and he made his way to the kitchen, hoping to engage with other members.

"Hyung?" He called out, seeking a response from DK. But he, too, ignored him. The realization struck him hard. Even DK, who was usually approachable and kind, was partaking in this silent treatment.

Disappointment and hurt gnawed at his core, but Dino refused to show it. If they wanted to play this game of silence, then he would play along. He would withhold his words, just as they had done to him. The unspoken tension hung thick in the air as he embraced the silence, determined to match their cold indifference.

But...

The situation took a turn for the worse. Not only did they continue to ignore him throughout the entire day, but they also purposely excluded him from their shared meals. The realization hit Dino like a blow, deepening the ache in his heart. They weren't just avoiding conversation; they were actively depriving him of the most basic form of connection.

The maknae refused to waste his time and energy preparing a meal for himself when he knew they would relish in his suffering. He wouldn't give them the satisfaction of witnessing his vulnerability.

Instead, he turned his attention away from the empty kitchen and retreated to his room, the gnawing hunger serving as a reminder of the distance that had grown between them. Determined not to let their actions break him, he resolved to endure the hunger, suppressing the pangs in his stomach as a symbol of his resilience.
