Incoming Call (Minsung)

fourteen➕jisung

I was on my way over to Felix's house to talk to him about what had happened, mainly because he had kept pestering me when I saw the same beautiful boy I went out with the night before struggling to carry a body. I heard Minho screaming at me and it scared me. At first, my mind went to a completely different side of the actual story, that he had killed someone, which chilled me to my very bone, but as I got closer, I recognized that face.

Hwang Hyunjin.

My first instinct was to rush forward to him, my eyes widened as I looked at the body laying on the grass.

"Oh my god! What happened to Hyunjin?!" I screamed, panic settling in almost immediately as I looked at his limp body, his wrists slit. It was an awful sight to see, especially when the person slitting their wrists and unconscious in front of you is one of your friends. It was horrible to see.

Minho explained he had been dealing with depression, but that he didn't expect it to be this bad. I've had my fair share of experiences with depression, but I never resorted to this. I felt my heart clench as I listened, wondering what in the hell was going through Hyunjin's head for him to be like this.

""Holy shit! We...c'mon, we have to get him to the hospital!" I insisted and with the help of Minho and a random stranger seeing us, we quickly got him to the hospital. He was whisked away from us as soon as we got there and I watched them take him away on a stretcher down a seemingly endless hospital hallway.

"Fuck! I should've answered.." I hear Minho scolding himself and I look over at him, giving him a sympathetic look and then speaking softly to him in fear that I might say something wrong.

"It wasn't your fault, Minnie.." I say softly and he turns to look at me.

"I could've stopped it! I..fuck.." he whispers the last part and sits on one of the waiting room chairs and I follow his pursuit, hesitating. I wasn't super good with communication and sympathy, but it felt right when I leaned forward and wrapped my arms around Minho's body. I just held him and he held me back, his tears soaking my shoulder.

"He's gonna be okay though.." I say gently to him and frown, mainly because I hate to see anyone cry, especially someone that I've grown so fond of, even after a short period of time like this.

"God, I hope so..I hope so.." he sobs into my shoulder and I bite my lower lip, bringing my hand up and stroking his hair gently, trying anything to calm him down, even though inside, I was panicking as well.

We stayed like that for a good five minutes or so, him sobbing into my shoulder and me playing with his hair comfortingly to try anything to calm him down.

"Minnie, I'm gonna..I'm gonna call my friends and let them know what's happened, is that okay?" I ask him gently and on cue, he lets go of me, nodding and wiping his tears away quickly, as if he'll get caught crying.

"Y-Yeah..yeah, that's fine..." he says softly, almost to himself. I followed his gaze as he looks down at his pants, covered in the Hyunjin's blood. His eyes start to tear up again and I sigh softly.

"Okay, I promise I'll be back, give me five minutes or so, okay?" I say softly and stand up, gently stroking his hair before walking away and outside of the doors to call everybody.

I call everybody; Felix, Jeongin, and Seungmin, who was absolutely devastated to hear the news of Hyunjin, sobbing to me on the phone as he spoke. They all said they would be there as soon as possible for support, Seungmin arriving the first and bursting into the doors.

"Jisung! Where is he? Can I see him? Please!.." he says, his face completely red and his eyes swollen, presumably from crying so much.

I wanted to reassure him, tell him that Hyunjin was okay, tell him where he was, but I truly had no idea. I didn't know, and that broke my heart as I responded to him.

"I don't...I don't know, Seungmin," I hear my voice crack and I clear my throat, sniffling. "They took him away, I-I'm sure they'll come out to get us..we're just waiting for now," I say to him lightly and guide him over to the waiting chairs and sitting him on the other side of me.

Both of the two end up leaning on me, crying their eyes out and praying that Hyunjin will make it out, that he'll be okay.

Their words hit somewhere deep inside and I felt myself start to cry.
