3rd person's POV:

The next day, Jaehyun's absence was noticeable. Riwoo, on the other hand, was present but clearly not himself. He went through the motions, but his eyes were dull, and his smiles were forced.

During lunch, his friends tried to lift his spirits. "Hey, Riwoo, let's go get some food! I heard the cafeteria has new menu items," Sungho said, attempting to sound cheerful.

Riwoo nodded, but his smile was weak. "Yeah, sure...I'll just get a sandwich or something."

As they ate, Taesan asked, "Riwoo, what's wrong? You've been really quiet lately."

Riwoo shrugged. "I'm just tired, I guess."

But his friends knew better. They could see the pain behind his eyes.

After lunch, during their next class period, Riwoo broke down. He rested his head on his desk, tears streaming down his face. Taerae, sitting beside him, immediately put a comforting arm around his shoulders.

Sungho, Taesan, Leehan, and Woonhak, who were sitting nearby, noticed the scene and exchanged worried glances. They had never seen Riwoo like this before.

"Is he okay?" Leehan whispered to Sungho.

Sungho shook his head. "I don't know, but it looks serious. He's been like this since after he came to study at my house."

Taesan frowned. "We should do something. He can't keep going on like this."

Woonhak nodded. "Yeah, we need to support him, whatever is going on."

As they watched, Taerae continued to comfort Riwoo, who was still crying silently at his seat. The scene was heartbreaking, and their friends knew they had to do something to help.

After school, thr group decided to hang out with Riwoo at his place to take his mind off things. Taerae, who had been a constant source of comfort, joined them as well.

As they settled into Riwoo's living room, Sungho suggested, "Hey, let's order some pizza and watch a movie! Riwoo's choice!"

Riwoo forced a smile, but his eyes still looked sad. "Yeah, sure...that sounds okay, I guess."

Taesan, trying to lighten the mood, joked, "I hope he doesn't make us watch a rom-com!"

Leehan chuckled. "Yeah, that would be torture!"

Woonhak added, "Unless it's a sad one, then Riwoo might relate!"

Sungho glared at him for that one.

Riwoo playfully rolled his eyes, but his friends could see the faintest glimmer of a genuine smile.

As they waited for the pizza to arrive, Taerae sat beside Riwoo on the couch, a supportive presence. The others chatted and joked, trying to create a welcoming atmosphere.

When the pizza arrived, they dug in, savoring the warm, cheesy goodness. Riwoo even managed a few laughs, his smile growing slightly more genuine.

As they watched the movie, Riwoo's friends made sure to include him in the conversation, asking his opinions and teasing him playfully. Taerae stayed by his side, being quite a close friend.

For a brief moment, Riwoo's aching heartbreak was forgotten, replaced by the warmth of friendship and camaraderie. But as the evening drew to a close, the pain would likely return, and his friends would be there to support him through it.

Jaehyun slowly got out of bed, his movements mechanical. He hadn't spoken to anyone in days, and his parents were at a loss for what to do. They tried to coax him into talking, but he just shook his head and looked away.

Despite his silence, Jaehyun's parents noticed a slight improvement. He was at least moving around now, whereas before he had been stuck in bed. They hoped this was a sign that he was starting to heal.

What Jaehyun didn't know was that his friends had planned a surprise visit for the next day. They wanted to lift his spirits and show him that they cared, just like they did with Riwoo.

Sungho had organized the whole thing, making sure everyone was free and could come over to Jaehyun's house. They planned to bring games, food, and plenty of company to take Jaehyun's mind off whatever bothered him.

But for now, Jaehyun was still alone with his thoughts, unaware of the surprise awaiting him. He wandered around his room, his eyes empty, his heart still heavy with sorrow.

Little did he know, his friends were soon to descend upon his house, armed with laughter, jokes, and a determination to bring him back from the darkness.

After school, Riwoo headed to the mall with his mom, unaware of the surprise his friends had planned for Jaehyun. Meanwhile, Sungho, Taesan, Leehan, Woonhak, and Taerae (yes Taerae) made their way to Jaehyun's house, determined to lift his spirits.

As they approached the house, they could feel a mix of excitement and nervousness. What if Jaehyun didn't want to see them? What if he was still too hurt to talk?

Sungho took a deep breath and rang the doorbell. Jaehyun's mom answered, looking relieved to see the group of friends. "Oh, thank you for coming! Jaehyun could really use some company right now."

She led them to Jaehyun's room, where he was sitting on his bed, staring blankly at the wall. The group exchanged worried glances, but Sungho took charge, walking over to Jaehyun with a big smile. "Hey, buddy! We're here to take your mind off things!"

Jaehyun looked up, slightly surprised, but still not speaking. His friends sat down around him, pulling out games, snacks, and phones loaded with funny videos. Taerae even brought his guitar, strumming a few chords to set a relaxed mood.

At first, Jaehyun just watched them, his expression unreadable. But as they laughed, joked, and teased each other, something shifted. He cracked a small smile, then another, until finally, he spoke, his voice barely above a whisper. "Thanks, guys...I needed this."

The next day at school, Jaehyun and Riwoo still hadn't spoken to each other. Jaehyun was grateful for his friends' visit the day before, but he wasn't ready to face Riwoo yet.

Riwoo, on the other hand, was still hurting from their argument. He saw Jaehyun in the hallways, but they just exchanged awkward glances before looking away.

Their friends tried to stay neutral, but it was clear that the tension between Jaehyun and Riwoo was still very visible. Sungho and Taesan tried to make light of the situation, cracking jokes and teasing them, but even that couldn't break the ice.

Taerae, who sits with Riwoo during the period after lunch, stuck by his side, while Leehan and Woonhak tried to keep Jaehyun's spirits up.

As the day went on, it became clear that the healing process would take time. Jaehyun and Riwoo needed space, and their friends were willing to give it to them.

But as they went about their day, separate and silent, the question lingered: what would it take for them to forgive each other and move forward? Only time would tell.
