The next days passed by pretty fast.
Most of the time I spent with learning some lyrics or some choreographies, and also studied for some tests, we would write in school soon.
Meanwhile the second week started, which I spent at the boys dorm. And slowly I started to feel pretty well here.
I also talked with Jimin and Yoongi but the most of the time, I spent with Jungkook.

A tower of books, pages and my laptop, on which I watched a dance video, stood on my desk.
I've would been lying, if I would say that I wasn't pretty stressed.
More stressed than ever before.
I still had to learn some songs and I also wasn't able to dance all of the old choreographies.
I also had much to learn for the upcoming tests, which were pretty important, and a lot of homeworks to do.
It was the first time, when I was afraid, I wouldn't be able to stand the stress.
I also hadn't talk to my parents in some days, which gave me the feeling of being alone. And this wasn't very helpful.
Because of the much things I had to do, I wasn't able to see the others except at the dance practices.
I also talked less with Jungkook because I spent time with sleeping if I weren't learning.
I also skipped the communal eating the last times, which let me had a guilty conscience.
They had to think that I was very rude. 
But there wasn't another way for me to get all that stuff done.
Even if I already thought this tasks weren't able to be done.
Probably I wasn't born for this.
If I wasn't able to get done these small tasks, how should I be able to deal with everything, when we would be on tour.

Tiredly, I rubbed my face.
I didn't sleep much the last week.
Leastways the sleepy feeling followed me the whole day.
I didn't really notice the knock on the door cause I already was focused on my book again.
"Yes?", I mumbled but didn't look up when the door opened.
"Hey, Yun", Namjoon said, which let me look up.
"Oh. Hey, Namjoon."
He looked at me, while he made a worried face.
"It's the fourth day on which you don't join the dinner. And I also didn't have seen u eating supper today. Yun, I am pretty worried!", he explained, crossed his arms and leaned against the door frame.
"You haven't to be worried. I am sorry that I didn't join the dinner. It was just... I have so many things to do..."
I sighed.
I noticed that I contradicted myself.
"That's why I am worried about you. You are learning and practicing every day. I'm becoming stressed if I just see that. I want you to join this dinner!"
His voice became stricter, which surprised me.
I looked down on the book on my lap and started to protest quietly.
"But I still have a lot of things to do, Nam..."
"That wasn't a request. Shut the book and come on!"
I still heard the worry in his voice.
I sighed once again, layed the book on the desk and followed him out of the room.
In the kitchen I saw a laid table and six waiting guys on their seats.
"Look, who I found", Namjoon shouted, when he entered the room.
Everybody in the room looked at me.
My cheeks blushed a bit, while I watched the others, before I quietly said, "Hey, guys."
"Maknae! Come, sit next to me", Tae said and started to grin.
Jungkook patted my shoulder, when I passed by, Jin smiled at me happily and Hoseok punched playfully against my arm.
While we were eating, a huge discussion have started about, who was the best cook.
I just listened to it, without saying a word.
But after some time, Namjoon turned to me.
"Hey, can I speak to you after dinner?"
I looked at him and started to nod, before I kept listening to the discussion.

It took about 15 minutes until the discussion and also the communal dinner ended.
While Jimin, Jin and Taehyung went to their rooms, Yoongi, Namjoon, Hoseok and Kooks stayed in the kitchen with me.
Jungkook sat down next to me, while the others stayed on their seats.
"So", Namjoon started to talk, "all of us are worried about you. All these tasks are pretty much for you. You have to catch up a lot of stuff and we also know that school can be very stressful as well. When we started, we started as group and learned everything together. No one had to catch up Choreos or lyrics. But because this isn't able for, we decided, to help you as much as possible, so you haven't to do everything on your own. Hoseok would like to help you with learning the choreographies. Yoongi could help you with the Rap parts, if you want to learn it. Jungkook wanna help you with the vocals and I can help you with the school stuff. Just, if you want to."
Yoongi, Hoseok and Jungkook nodded in agreement and smiled to me happily.
Surprised I looked at Namjoon until I responded, pretty thankfully, "I think I will never be able to thank you enough for this. For sure. I..."
"Hey! Stop it, Maknae! We love to help you", Hoseok interrupted me and pushed his elbow against my arm carefully.
"You will never be alone, Maknae", Jungkook said and laid, both of his hands, on my shoulders.
