"What's wrong with him?" I asked J-Hope when I saw Tae writing something seriously on his notebook. It's only 7:00 in the morning but he's already so busy.

J-Hope looked at him too and shrugged, "I don't know. He's been at it since last night," he said and we both decided to leave him alone.

"Hey, you remember that girl group from last night?" I asked J-Hope while walking to the living room.

He nodded. "BlackPink? Of course. It's not like I'm old like Jin to forget something so easily," I laughed at his remark and we suddenly heard someone shouting from the hyungs' room. 

"Yah, I heard that!"

We both laughed out loud, "I know!" J-Hope replied.

"Anyway, why'd you ask?" He asked as we sat down.

"Lisa looks really cool, doesn't she?" I asked in admiration. I really couldn't forget about her unique features. I mean, it's not just her appearance, but there's just something about her that pulls me in unlike the other girl groups. Her talent and confidence is more... natural.

The other members were really great, too. Jimin hyung seemed to really like Rosé's voice, and I did, too. Her voice was so unique and captivating. And we also saw similarities between Jin and Jisoo when we saw some of Jisoo's pictures. Jin was really proud of himself when we said that. The badass girl, Jennie, seemed to impress the rappers in our group too. She and Lisa were like spitting fire whenever they rapped.

"She does," hyung said before turning the TV on.

I stared at him playfully, "You don't seem really interested, huh?"

He shrugged and answered, "I mean their debut is really good, it's one of the best. But Red Velvet, man." He pursed his lips and started shaking his head just by thinking of them.

As expected, this guy really favors Red Velvet more than any girl group.

At that moment, Jimin came out of their room and sat next to me while rubbing his eyes. He put an arm around me and asked, "what were you talking about?"

Finally, someone I can talk with!

I faced him excitedly that caused his arm to fall. "Hyung, remember that girl group from last night?"

He suddenly brightened up and said, "Yeah, they had a really pretty main vocalist."

"I know!" I told him, "But that's not what I'm going to talk about." 

His smile fell but I just smiled widely at him, "What do you think of Lisa?" I asked him.

"Why are you asking me that?" He seemed to be taken aback by my question. Probably because I don't really talk that much when it comes to girls.

"Just answer me, hyung!" I waited eagerly for his answer, and I showed him my fists in case he's gonna say something bad. But that's impossible, since there's nothing to hate about her.

"U-Uh," he stuttered, "her beauty's really exotic."

I waited for more, "...And?"

"And she's really cool."

"Right?" I said and I finally sat properly, "I think I just found my waifu."

"Wow Jungkook," Jimin looked at me like he's amazed or something, "you finally got smitten by another female idol rather than IU!"

I took out my phone and went to YouTube to search for their music video again.

"Daebak, GUYS! OUR MAKNAE'S IN LOVE!" Jimin suddenly shouted that made everyone, except Taehyung, go out of their rooms and rush to my side. I held my phone tightly while they were all squishing me.

"You're in love?!" Namjoon exclaimed.

"Who's the girl? She better be beautiful, or else," Suga asked.

"Wow, you've really grown up!" Jin said while messing with my hair.

They were talking all at once that I couldn't help but laugh and shove them away from me.

"Relax!" They all shut up, "I'm not in love, okay?"

They all seemed doubtful and kept staring at me. "Then why are you smiling like that?" Namjoon hyung asked.

They scooted closer to me while waiting for my answer. 

"I just found a very amazing idol," I said slowly and they were like "Ahh..."

I watched the music video for "Whistle" and they all seemed to know who I was talking about. I've been talking about Lisa ever since we've seen their videos, and it doesn't seem like I'll stop soon.

I like this group, but what I don't like is the fact that they're hidden from us. I mean, they've just debuted, so why aren't they promoted more? But I also think that this is their strategy to keep the audience wanting more, and they're doing real good at that.

In the middle of watching their mv, we suddenly heard a loud thud coming from Tae's room.

We all looked at each other with shock and confusion written all over our faces. We all sat still for a moment until we heard Taehyung's frustrated scream and that's when we rushed to his room just to find him looking like a hot mess with tears in his eyes, crumpled sheets of paper everywhere, a broken lamp on the floor, and disarranged furnitures.

We didn't know what to do. Taehyung was crying so hard while holding a broken pen.

Jin and Jimin were the first ones to approach Taehyung, because they're the ones that he always talked to. The rest of us took the broken lamp away from them and Namjoon picked up the crumpled sheets of paper. We then left the room to let Jin and Jimin talk to hyung.

We were all panicking at that time, asking "What's happening?" to each other. Namjoon opened one paper and read what was written there.

"He's been writing a song?" Namjoon hyung said and we looked to see what he meant.

"Yes I hate you, you left me

But I never stopped thinking about you not even a day

Honestly I miss you but I'll erase you

'Cause it hurts less than to blame you."

We opened another piece of paper and the words there say:

"How long do I have to wait?

How many sleepless nights do I have to spend?

To see you, to meet you.

Passing by the edge of the cold winter

Until the days of spring

Until the days of the flower blossoms

Please stay,  please stay there a little longer."

What's happening to hyung?
