They talk of the most mundane things.
They talk about Eunki and that Chinese dancer who joined their studio a few weeks back. They talk about Joonyoung and Yongbin and their masteral classes. They talk about Taehyun and the choreographers he met recently. They talk about Hyunmin and the parties he goes to. They talk about Hyungseob and his blog.
They talk about the winter that has come and past, and Hyungseob ends up crying, much to the rest's panic.
The news suddenly comes on the television, volume surprisingly loud to their ears, at the corner of the restaurant they're in, with reports of the plane crash near the coast of Japan months ago and the recent findings, and Hyungseob cries even more.
His name comes up among the people who they just managed to identify, and Hyungseob is nearly running out of the restaurant if it wasn't for Hyunmin's arms wrapped tightly around him and whispering in his ear, hands rubbing at his shoulders telling him to, "Please, please, Seob, calm down."
Months of no news at all, and Hyungseob, all of them, thought there was no hope left. Now, news finally comes and it seals everything that happened that winter with a finality.
There's nothing left to hope for.
