Ring!ring!

Groaning, Baekhyun turns off his alarm. He slept early yesterday; yet he still feels exhausted.

He yawned as he stretched his arms, before doing his morning routine. Once he was done, he climbed downstairs for breakfast.

*

"Good morning"  Baekhyun greeted, faking a joyful tone.

To his familly, he's happy, childlish, playful. But he was the total opposite in reality. He just couldn't show his true self to them.

"Good morning sweety." Mrs. Byun said, placing a plate infront of Baekhyun, "you have to eat this, everything! Look at you, you're so skinny and you no longer have squishy cheeks!"

"But mom.." Baekhyun whined, "you know i can't eat this much. I have a small tummy." He pouted, rubbing his belly.

"No buts, now eat! You're going to be late!"

*

As soon as he got to school, he ran to the restroom to throw up what he ate.

It was too heavy for him, he felt himself fatter already.
'What if i haven't threw up, i would've became an ugly pig! Even uglier that how i am currently!'
He thought, as he felt his anxiety rising.

Tears of soothing comfort filled his eyes, fell down his cheeks, but they weren't enough to make him feel any better.

He quickly flushed the toilet, before getting out to wash his face;
But instead he met his friend's worried face.

"C-chanyeol?" The petite muttered in a soft voice.

The taller quickly wrapped his arms around his friend once he noticed the signs of sadness on his face, envelopping him in a tight hug.

Baekhyun, being the fragile, sensitive boy he is, cried in hopes that everything will be alright,
In hopes that everything will be okay,
And that the coming future will be brighter.

But his anxiety and depression stricked once again, destroying the hope he had just gained.

He felt himself wrapping his arms around Chanyeol, returning his hug, and inhaling his soothing scent that made him surprisingly feel safe, made him feel home.

The giant himself couldn't help but cry over the fact that his crush was having a breakdown.

What would've happened if he didn't roam around the school looking for the midget?

What if he had to deal with his sadness all by himself, without anyone giving him hope that everything will be okay?

What if, just what if, he was too deep in sadness, that he hurt himself or even worse, suicided?!

Chanyeol shrugged off his negatif thoughts, before mentally adding a new goal to his list;

-make Baekhyun live happily, ever after.
