TW: Drug Abuse and Suicide

HEEYOUNG

"Oh, noona?" Heejin was startled to see me.

I smiled tiredly at him before sitting down the sofa of the apartment where they've been staying. "Eomma's sleeping."

I took out my phone with a heavy sigh and typed a message for Chanyeol.

Me: Please take your medicines.

I sent the text and stood up. I went to the kitchen to open the refrigerator and grabbed some snacks. I glanced at the array of medicines on top of the microwave oven. Those are Eomma's medicine for her Alzheimers.

"You look tired. How's work?" Heejin asked as he washed some dishes.

I sighed, "It was okay. I suddenly had a headache and I blacked out."

Heejin turned to face me, "A headache caused you to black out? Isn't that too much?"

I massaged my temples, "Maybe it's the stress."

Heejin sighed, "Ya~ get out."

I scoffed, "Mwoya? Ya!"

He was pushing me towards the door, "Go sleep at your place. You'll be more stressed here."

"Ya! You didn't even offer me dinner!" I shouted back at him. "What're you doing?! Ya~ Kim Heejin!"

He gave me a sly smile before pointing at the door, "It's because someone's here."

Confused, I opened the door. I was shocked to see Oh Sehun, in his black jeans and white long sleeves, a black beanie, and a face mask. He gave me an eye smile when I looked at him before waving at me like a kid.

"S-Sehun-ah, what are you doing here?" I mumbled. "You should be practicing."

He spoke gently, "It got cancelled. Everyone was too tired. I called Heejin-ah because I wanted to visit Ahjumma, but surprisingly you're here too."

I glared at my younger brother who only shrugged and pushed me outside. "Hyung, Eomma's already asleep. You can visit next time, okay?" Was all he said then winked at me.

I scratched the back of my neck, "Are you going back to your dorm?"

"I haven't had dinner yet." He said, wrapping his right arm around my shoulder. "Let's eat together, shall we? I'm craving for samgyupsal."

I don't know why hesitation was on my mind when this is all I wanted all my life, to spend time with Sehun. Maybe it's my defense mechanism acting up. I don't want to get my hopes up again. I don't want them to go up, because I'll know he'll break those stupid hopes again.

"Ya~ eat up. This is why you're so thin." He kept ranting while we were eating.

I nodded, "Fine. But I'm doing a diet."
