i can't explain how fast my feet took me to the gym. i could see people crowding around. the first person i saw was jennie on her phone with kihyun and then i saw hyungwon squatting next to hoseok who was gripping his ankle.

my eyes couldn't blink as i saw his ankle twisting the other way.

i wanted to scream but i rushed over to my boyfriend instead and crouched next to hyungwon. "how!?" i shout.

hyungwon uses his words. "he was playing too hard. everyone told him to take a break and head to the showers but he refused. next thing he was screaming." i could look at hoseok's face and tell he was in pain. coach brought him a cool towel and a stool to put his foot on.

once the ambulance came, they pushed us all away. come with me," hoseok points and i rush to his side. "not you," he breathes. "jisoo."

"jisoo?" i'm stunned for a second, trying to recollect my thoughts. did i hear him correctly? did he just choose ms. senior popularity over his own girlfriend?

"ouch..." hyungwon says in my ear which makes me turn to face him. "he's taking this break pretty seriously."

i wanted to push him in the face, but i was more concerned with who told him my relationship business.

hyungwon laughs at my face. "he told us in the locker rooms before they made us practice more for tryouts. sadly for me, i'll have to wait another week to see who gets crowned senior basketball captain." he pats my head then turns away.

it's like hoseok breaking his leg doesn't even matter to him.

after what hoseok did, it doesn't even matter to me either.
