Dear DREAM [✔]

"5,6,7,8!" Taeyong shouted as they keep on practicing Black on Black.

As it was coming to Johnny and Haechan's spin, they all stopped. Haechan fell down on his right leg causing him to yell out in pain.

"Hyung! It hurts!"

"Haechan-ah!" They all shouted as they went up to the poor boy.

"Can you stand up?" Kun asked.

"I don't think I can hyung. I think I've fractured my leg." Haechan said with tears welling up in his eyes.

They called their manager and they rushed him to the hospital. The members were held back by some of the staffs and said that they should continue on practicing.

When everyone got back to the practice room, no one even bothered to speak up. They are all worried for their co-member. They are also worried of what the fans will think.

"Let's just hope that if he will stay at the hospital, he will recover fastly." Taeyong said trying to lift up the mood but failed to do so.

"But, hyung, isn't he the fullsun?" Jisung asked making him confused.

"What do you mean?"

"I mean, Mark hyung once said that the lightsticks were just like grasses during our promotion with We Go Up."

All of them looked at them still not getting what Jisung meant.

"Grasses couldn't live for long if the sun wouldn't shine on them. Once CEO nim posted about this, I think they would all get sad and worried about him. Just like grasses, they will get wilted."

Finally, all of them understand what their maknae meant. Chenle just put his hand on Jisung's shoulder as a sign of comfort. He knew that the younger is worried about their hyung but he couldn't do anything.

"But, we will try our best to make them happy Jisung." Taeyong said reassuring the maknae.

Jisung just nod his head at what his hyung have said.

One person is just standing on the corner staring into the floor infront of him. Mark Lee. The one who grew up with Haechan together and the one who witness him grew up. He felt like he failed. He failed to protect the younger at all cost.

"Oh come on guys. It's not like he left the group. He wouldn't like seeing us like this." Jaehyun tried to smile but fail when he saw their manager enter the room.

"Manager hyung, what happened? Where's Donghyuck?" Taeil asked.

"The doctors said that he fractured his shin bone from his right leg and he have to stay at the hospital and avoid any schedules you guys have. The CEO have already released a statement about it and lots of fans were sad."

Once they all heard what their manager have said, it felt like they couldn't take it. NCT isn't complete if one member is missing. Because they treat each other as brothers, as a family.

The Dreamies got to their dorm and everyone went to their respective rooms not bothering to utter even a single word.

Mark can sense that they're all tired. Tired from everything. But he knows he can't do anything. He know one but it is to stay with them. But he knew he can't. He can't stay with them forever. Even if it that was they want.

'Before it's too late
I'll take a step away
I know one word would make me go rushing back to you.'

He can relate to the song. He'll go and graduate before it's too late. He will look back at all the memories he made with the younger members. He smiled somehow. Even though, it won't happen again. In the future maybe. If they are given the chance to perform again as 7D.
