They all stared at each other in horror. Jisung didn't know who was just chilling in his closet. Seungmin didn't know if he was to get scared or stay calm. And the dude in the closet didn't know who these people were.

The guy in the closet waved to Jisung and Seungmin and the two boys outside of the closet wasted no time to wave back and just stare again.

That was, until Seungmin nudged Jisung for being so quiet, or... still.

So Seungmin signed, but kept in mind that the boy in the closet might not have a clue about what he was talking about.

'Do... you' for 'know' he pointed to his brain. '...sign?' He finished not knowing if he made sense with signing, the word 'sign' so he just
illustrated a square with his fingers and started moving his hands everywhere as to make it seem like words.

But surprisingly the boy in the smiled a bit and nodded his head. Jisung smiled a bit, and not because he wanted to, but because the boys sweet smile was just simply contagious.

Even Seungmin himself smiled.

Jisung held out a hand to help the boy out of the closet but that made his smile drop a bit and Jisung caught onto that. So he lowered his hand back down.

'Sorry it's not that.. I don't want to take your hand it's... because of my brother'

'Your.. brother? What does he have to do with anything?' Jisung signed. Actually really fumbled.

'Well.. he's here.'

'Here?' Jisung and Seungmin signed at the same time. 'Like.. in his closet... with you?' Seungmin signed.

'Yeah, right beside me... he's just, really shy. Well, at first. For a while. He deaf. He's the reason I know sign language.

He wasn't deaf all his life but... something.. happened and he wasn't able to hear anymore. It's like, one moment he can hear in the next he can't.

But he can still mostly hear all the time. It's just sometimes... he can't'

'What happened?' Seungmin signed and Jisung smacked him for being invading, and Seungmin looked at him about to scream in pain, holding his head. But Jisung just put is index finger over his lips, telling Seungmin to be quiet.

'I'm not... I shouldn't be the one to tell you'

'I'm sorry that's not something you should tell us if it isn't you who can't hear. I'm sorry that he asked.'

'It's fine'

'Well... can he hear now?'

There was a bomb that went off and all of them jumped, including the boys brother.

'Yeah' the boy in the closet assumed.

"Then you should be able to talk.. right?" Jisung said in a very very low voice.

'Will we not get... killed?'

'No. As you might have seen, my house is behind a waterfall, it'll cancel out our sound.'

"Oh, ok" the boy said and it shocked Jisung and Seungmin because of how deep his voice was.

If they were being totally honest. They didn't expect his voice to be high and all but... definitely not this deep.

"You coming innie?" The boy said to his brother.

"Oh yeah" the boy in the other closet said and his voice wasn't deep at all. It was quite cute.

They both walked out of the closet (cuz they're gay) and sat on the bed with Jisung and Seungmin.

"Well, My name is Felix and im 18."

"Tell them

"Tell them." Felix brother pushed him.

"I don't wanna. I don't even know them like that."

"Exactly. We don't know them. But maybe telling them things like this.. can help us be able to get to know them better. And I don't think they'll judge"

"Judge? Us?" Seungmin asked.

"Yeah, I don't know if you will." Felix said.

"We'd never judge, that's- ew yuck. No" Jisung said.

"See, they won't judge. Just tell them" the boy said.

Felix just sighed before looking at Them. "I-...... I'm a.... S-   Sex worker."

Silence.

"God it's like telling mom and dad all over again. Just a bit more... gentle."

Jisung and Seungmin weren't shocked. I mean they were but, they had plenty of 'sex worker' friends in their life.

"That's... what you thought we would judge about??"

"Well yeah, it's not very.. 18-year-old-like."

"So, you do it for you personal reasons. Even if that personal reason is that you just want to. Especially if you're only doing it for the money. That job pays good. Not saying that it's not a little risky, and you shouldn't be carful and that, it's just a great job because it's not. Your body is worth more than what you're being paid. But again, it's not anything new for us"

Jisung smiled. He wanted Felix to know that, what he was doing was a risky job, but that also he would support but still help him and care for him.

"Thank you, and I don't know about that but, thank you for saying it"

Jisung just smiled and nodded.

"I'm jeongin, but you can call me I.N and I'm 16. I don't work."

"It's nice to meet you I

"It's nice to meet you I.N" Jisung said, and smiled. The 16 year old looked so innocent Jisung  would do anything to protect him. He'd do anything to protect all of them.

Even if it meant that he had to die.
