A Hidden Story (HaByul Story)

A Sudden Piece Of News

[HAHA's POV]

"Let's break up." 

"What?! After 5 years you decided we are not right for each other? Okay then."

"I wish you all the best for your future. Goodbye Haha ssi." 

*Door slams*

"Urgh! I'm not even out of the army and I have to deal with this :'( Who's going to be there for me when I come out from the army then? Sigh..."

[ Day Haha is discharged from military service ]

News Reporter: "Haha ssi what are your thoughts on your recent break up?"

"I decline to comment."

With that Haha walked off. 

*Ping!!!!* *Ping!!!* *Ping!!!* [3 new messages] 

"What is this? I wish everyone could stop messaging me for a moment... All I want is some peace and quiet..."

[Phone rings] 

"Uh hello?"

"Haha, where are you right now? Reporters are calling me? Are you at home?"

"No hyung, I'm not home yet. I'll like to be alone for a while please hyung. Really."

"Okay! Call me if you need me! And the moment you reach home!!!!"

[After an hour drive home]

/slams the door and throws himself on the sofa/

"Why? Why? Why?! Am I so unworthy of you that you want to break up with me? What happened to us? You said you loved me, you lied! I gave you everything I had! I'm so useless! URGH!!!!" Haha said to himself angrily. He didn't see this coming. Actually, no one in South Korea saw this coming. It was completely unexpected. He walks to the fridge and takes out 19 bottles of Hennessy beer and slumps back onto the sofa drinking them one by one. 

[JONG KOOK's POV]

It's been a few years since I've worked with my little brother Haha on X-MAN. I do miss his jokes and fantastic dance moves. I really treat him like my own brother! I heard he had to enlist in the army and was recently discharged. Practically the entire South Korea that keeps up with the NEWS would know! 

Hmmm... I'll send him a quick message on WeChat! Maybe we could meet for a meal or something! 

"Hey my little brother! How are you doing after army? :) Shall we meet up for a meal?"

[2 hours later...]

"WHAT?! My little brother broke up with his girlfriend?! But they were literally the sweetest couple I knew! What's going on?! Oh no, no wonder he isn't replying my message. He must be so distraught right now... I hope he doesn't start drinking heavily again :/" Jong Kook anxiously thought to himself. After working with Haha for quite a number of years, he learnt that Haha often found refuge and comfort in drinking while talking to close friends. 

THE NEXT DAY..........

[HAHA's POV] 

"OUCH! My head hurts! Urgh stupid hangovers! Where's my phone?!"

Just then, Haha's phone screen lit up. He saw it and quickly grabbed it before falling flat on the sofa as he lost his balance. 

"What? Jong Kook hyung message me? For what though? He hasn't messaged me since last month... Why are there so many missed calls? URGHHHHH STRESSSSS!!!!!! Ah! I have filming for Infinity Challenge tomorrow! >.< But I don't feel like going... But I don't want to feel lonely, it's such an empty feeling here... without you... Sigh..."
