'Hoseok...' a message came from Hyungwon, interrupting Hoseok's game. He paused it and put the controller away to look at his phone.

'Yea?' he answered. Something seemed weird.

'Can you come here?' new message came almost immediately.

'I can't. School tomorrow', Hoseok answered

'Please'.

He looked at his phone, furrowing his eyebrows. Something was indeed weird. 'I'll be right there'.

In less than half an hour, Hoseok had sneaked out of his window and ran to Hyungwon's house. He couldn't take his scooter because his helmet was in the living room and his parents would've noticed him if he went to get it.

Because Hyungwon's parents weren't home, Hoseok could just walk in the house without worrying about getting caught.

Hyungwon was sitting on the floor in front of the couch of his room. His head was hanging low.

"I'm here", Hoseok broke the heavy silence he had stepped in to.

"Thank god, I was getting desperate", Hyungwon raised his head to look at his friend. He didn't sound as sad as Hoseok had been expecting him to.

"What's the problem?"

"I can't get my PS to work. I have done everything but the sound won't come out", he stood up and sat on the couch.

Hoseok crossed his arms. "You've got to be kidding me."

"I have been trying for hours."

He walked to the television, took the aux-chord and plugged it in.

Loud background music of some action game started playing.

"Was it that simple", Hyungwon looked confused.

"I don't believe you asked me here for this. You could've done this in your own and if not, you would've just asked me for help", Hoseok crossed his arms.

"I-I just thought that it would be hard to fix."

"No, you're a bad liar", Hoseok shook his head and sat next to Hyungwon, studying his face for a few seconds. "What's wrong?"

"Nothing, this works now so you can go if you want."

"Hyungwon", his voice was stern. "Tell me."

Trying to distract himself by playing around with his controller, Hyungwon didn't answer.

"Did Tia break up with you?"

He nodded.

Hoseok sighed. "I'm sorry."

"It's okay, I should've seen it coming since she is such a slut. I'm just another boy added to her long list."

"You seemed like you really liked her", he said after a while.

Hyungwon nodded again. "I do."

"That's just how life is. If it makes you feel any better, you were longer together with her than many others who can't even last a week."

"It doesn't."

"Okay, I'll shut up", Hoseok felt a little embarrassed. He was really bad at making people feel better.

"I don't even wanna play anymore", Hyungwon threw the controller away. He looked seriously upset. "I'll just go to sleep."

He walked to his bed and crawled under the blankets.
