My I | Junhao

"Is my dad... dead?" I asked Mrs. Xu. She didn't look up and nodded.

My whole world fell apart under my feet. My dad was dead. He was dead. No. I refused to believe it. He helped me through all my hardships of my life. He introduced me to acting. He introduced me to... Minghao. I don't know what I would've done without him.

"His funeral is in two days. Your mom wanted you to come, but I don't know if you're busy," Mrs. Xu said. "Minghao can come as well."

I nodded my head, agreeing to go to the funeral. I would have to leave Seventeen for about a week, but I think it'll be okay.

Mrs. Xu and I walked back inside. As she explained everything to Minghao, I told the rest of Seventeen what happened.

"So... I'm gonna have to be gone for about a week, and Minghao too, if he wants to go. I hope you guys understand," I said. They all looked at each other and nodded.

"While you and Minghao are gone, we will practice the rest of the dance and help you guys learn it before our debut date. We're really sorry for you're loss, Junhui," Seungcheol hyung said. I know he's being really serious when he uses my real name.

Minghao and I went back to the dorm to pack up our bags for a week. Mrs. Xu just came along to tell us what we would need. Since we aren't really staying long, there wasn't a lot of us to pack.

"Jun hyung... I'm really sorry for your loss. Your dad and my mom are what brought us together and now that your dad is gone..." Minghao said as the members started piling into the dorms after practice was over.

"It's okay... At least we'll still be friends without my dad," I said. I looked towards at Minghao and he nodded his head, a bit of hurt in his eyes.

I felt a little hurt at my words as well. I wanted to be more than friends, and I knew that, but the words just came out my mouth.

After a few minutes of silence, I saw Minghao slowly start to close his eyes. Knowing he wanted to fall asleep, I started singing 'Miracles in December' by EXO because (it's the song the author is listening to currently) it was a soft, soothing song. Soon enough after I finished singing it, Minghao was fast asleep.

"Good night," I quietly whispered and fell asleep soon after.
