If you're into Chan and enjoy angst, then this story is definitely tailored for you!
Chan didn't want to do what his agency asked. They pushed him to create scandals for attention, promising it would help Stray Kids get famous. Reluctantly, he agre...
Chan's voice was firm, directed at Minho, who was still clinging to him, quietly sobbing.
"Hyung...please..."
Minho's voice trembled as he struggled to let go, but Chan forcefully broke away from his grasp.
"Can you leave me alone..."
Chan's said, loud enough for everyone around to hear. Seungmin and Lix already seemed to have disappeared. the rest of us stood there, rooted in place, unable to move.
Leaving felt wrong, but staying felt even worse.
I glanced around, my eyes falling on I.N, who was tearing up beside me. The guilt in the room was suffocating. I could understand how everyone was feeling right now. regret..... sadness..... fear.....
But no, not him. I don't understand this man. How could I?
One word he had said just a while ago had been stuck in my head ever since, repeating over and over.
Selfish... Did I hear him right?
I looked at him-the person who had every reason to hate us but kept his silence, even now.

This man, who had been sexually assaulted ,endured horrors that none of us even wanted to imagine, who bore the hatred of so many, and had been betrayed, abused, mistreated in every possible way by the very people who were supposed to protect him.
It would have been a miracle if he hadn't had thoughts of suicide. If I were him, I think I'd already be dead.
But why did you call yourself selfish for having that thought? Why did you sound so ashamed, like that feeling-that feeling-was something he had to apologize for?
Do you really think you don't even deserve that? That you don't even deserve a moment to just... break?
And you feel guilty that,
In that split second when you wanted to disappear, when you thought of ending it, you forgot to think about what's gonna happen to us?
Does that thought make you ashamed?
Just... what are you? I can't call this just selfless. should I call it self-sacrifice?
A person who goes beyond simple selflessness, disregarding their own needs and well-being entirely, only to protect others.
But why??? Why sacrifice yourself for a bunch of stupid, selfish kids like us?
You shouldn't have done that. See where it's led you today...
Like a piece of glass shattered into a million pieces, scattered so far that no matter how hard we try, we'll never be able to gather them all.....
