SeungCheol's point of view

We reached our homes with smiles in our faces, the kids enjoyed eating ice cream with us, especially Chan.

The next morning | Saturday morning

I woke up with the sun in my eyes. Did I left the window curtains open last night? Ugh, I still want to sleep.

"Cheol-ah, you have a visitor." My mom barged in my room. Visitor, in a Saturday? It's my day off today! "Who is it mom?"...
"You should see yourself." Who-- argghh! Who the heck is that person that I need to face him or her just to know who are they?
I walk down the stairs with my bed hair and my unwashed face and my teeth still nor brushed.
"Who--" I was about to curse but I realized it's not one of the kids. It's my childhood friend...
Lol joke, it's JeongHan, he's the only person who can stunt me like that.
"Why are you here?" I asked him, he looks like going somewhere, he's dressed nice. "Aren't you gonna great me a good morning first?" "I'm shocked, you know? I don't expect you here." Why is he here anyways? "I came to return the tupper ware." The kimchi? "Is that the only reason?" So foolish SeungCheol! Why did you asked that?! Aish... "Of course to see you too." "To see me?" "You're asking for a reason." So that's an excuse? "Really?" I pulled a straight face and he chuckled a little, his laughs made my day even though it's still early, uh wait, I dunno what time is it. "Why are you dressed like that? Are you going somewhere?" He looked down on his outfit and said, "Oh, yeah, I'm going somewhere." He's weird today.,"Where? Can I come? It looks like you're going somewhere nice." "No, I'm just going to search for something." Search for something? "What something?" He stayed quiet for few seconds and snapped.
"My ring."  "Is it that important? Where did you lost it?" "Actually I don't really know, I just lost it somewhere." Somewhere?  Why can't he say it? "Did you lost it in the streets? If you lost it in the streets you can't see that again, it's probably in somebody's hand somewhere." JeongHan looked at me with a sad and worried expression. "Maybe I did, I really can't remember." It looks like it's really important to him, I'm gonna search it with him. "I'm gonna take a shower, after that I'll search with you. Why don't you sit here?" Well, I actually want him in my room but... "Where is Hanie?" "You want to see him?" "Yeah, I miss him." You were together last night. "He's in my room." "Can I come?" In my room? Absolutely! Don't get me wrong, I'm not a pervert I just want to impress him with my collection. "Yeah, sure, why not?"
We went upstairs and he just sat in my bed and played with Hanie, he really likes the cat, "Just wait here for a bit."
I quickly took a shower and then change inside the bathroom, I can't change in front of him, you people have perverted minds. I came out in the bathroom to see him still playing with my cat, amusing. I grabbed my wallet and put on my shoes. "Let's go." He stood up from my bed and walked towards the door, I grabbed the ring, and I don't know why I did that.

We searched every inch of the village but still found none, I sigh because of hunger, and JeongHan stopped for a bit. "Are you hungry?" "Are you gonna treat me meat?" I want to treat him but I want to throw a joke and it's effective because I heard his laugh again. "Yeah sure." He took it seriously?! "I'm just joking! I can pay my own." Stupid Cheol! "I insist." He smiled at me and I felt my heart goes BOOM-BOOM-BOOM-BOOM! I can feel it will explode anytime.
"SEUNGCHEOL HYUNG!" Who-? I tilt my head to the right to see who is it. "Hoshi?" "Yeah, you're at my street, what are you two doing here?" "Why do we always bump into you? Are you following us?" It's creepy tbh. "No, it's destiny hyung." I just let out a sigh and asked who is he with, and he answered "All of them."

All of them, so we ended up treating 11 boys who eats like gorillas I payed most of it but my budget is not enough so JeongHan contribute. The kids didn't payed their bills because of "I have to buy shoes hyung." "I have no money with me." "I used all of my money in the arcade." "I'm broke."

We walked the streets in usual noisy atmosphere, Vernon seems bored. "I want to play basketball." Finally somebody asks to do something. "Why basketball?" Asked Uji. "I just want to." Answered Hansol. "Why hyung? You afraid?" Asked Dokyeom. "Fight me!" Uji turned his cute little hands into fist and aim for Dokyeom. "No hyung! I'm just joking!"

So we ended up playing basketball, without Uji, SeungKwan and JeongHan, Uji is too short, SeungKwan is too full to play and JeongHan's not in the mood. My team consists Wonu, Hoshi, Jun and The8, and Hansol's is the rest.

We stopped playing at the score 29-28, so Hansol's team need to buy us snacks. "We're too tired." Said DK. "Yeah hyung, why don't you buy the snacks instead?" Said Dino, these kids really... "You just want to avoid punishment you punks!" "Ahh hyung, we're really tired, you keep on shooting 3s, we tried our very best to keep up." Said Hansol. "I'll but snacks but you guys will pay." Hansol handed me 15,000 ₩. "I thought you don't have money with you?" "I thought too." Aish... should I come with someone? "JeongHan you want to come?" JeongHan cuts his chit chat with SeungKwan and looked up at me, his eyes shines with the sun rays in it... "Yeah sure."
We walked to the nearest convince store in the corner. "JeongHan, what will you do with the ring? We can't find it anywhere." He let out a frustrated sigh, maybe it's really important to him. "I-I'll..." I remembered the ring, maybe this will replace it? I pulled out the ring and showed it to him. "You found it! How did you find it? Did you just hide it to keep me by your side?" He took it then place it in his pinky finger, how can that be his ring? "I just saw it in the court I thought it's the ring." That's lame but he believed, that's really odd. Maybe his ring is the same as that ring.

We walked back to the court with sausages and banana yogurt milks, perfect combo. They all took one combo and ate. "Hyung, do you know JeongHan hyung can sing?" SeungKwan said out of nowhere. "Really?" "Yeah we had a little chit-chat, he said he sings." I looked at JeongHan, and his eyes widened and mouthed 'why?' to SeungKwan. I thought of something... "Why don't we hear it?" The kids had gone wild and cheered. "Go JeongHan hyung!" Cheered the maknae. "JeongHan hyung! JeongHan hyung!" Cheered DK, everybody wants to hear JeongHan sing, I want to hear him too, I bet he's a good singer. He took a deep breath and...

As the smile fell from your face, I fell with it
Our faces blue
There's a heart stain on the carpet
I left it, I left it with you
Yeah, the truth is that I'm sorry
Though I told you not to worry
I'm just some dumb kid
Trying to kid myself
That I got my shit together

So go, get to runnin', won't you hurry?
While it's light out, while it's early
Before I start to miss any part of this
And change my mind, whatever

I say I wanna settle down
Build your hopes up like a tower
I'm giving you the run around
I'm just a lost boy
Not ready to be found
Not ready to be found
I'm just a lost boy
Not ready to be found

Everyone's stunt, him singing a Troye Sivan song, it really suits his voice... then Uji clapped his hands and cheered, everybody followed. "You have such amazing voice hyung!" Said Dino. "Ah, thank you." Then he bowed to us and took his banna yogurt milk and drink it.
