What is this place? Why is it so dark? I can't see anything.

Why didn't you just left him?

What's that voice? Who's there?

Just put him there!

A man's voice? Who?

Why did you even exist in the first place!

What? What are they talking about?

It would be nice if you're not born!

Huh?

Just let the maid give him food so he'll not die in this house! I don't want to be accused of killing a kid especially a cursed one.

Wait, what are you talking about?

I'm sorry Soon but it's because of those eyes and that power of yours that we can't do anything.

What do you mean you can't do anything?

You're curse son. A bad omen.

It's not like I want to be one! You're the ones that should be at fault! Why is it me-

Oh my! What a lovely child you have there! Is that the second child?

Huh? There's no such thing. This is my only child.

.... Then what am I?

You're a fucking monster! Don't you get even close to my son!

I'm not a monster....

You're not? Pfft. Are you making some kind of a sick joke? With that eyes and power, what would you be than a monster, MONSTER!

I'm not.....

Monster!

Stop....

Freak!

Please just stop...

Just die already!

"St...o...p...."

Jihoon turn his head around towards the voice only to find an unconcious guy with tears flowing down his closed eyes, mumbling something with shaky breath.

It's been three days since the incident happened and Hoshi had been unconcious since. Jihoon had volunteered to take care of the other. Maybe he wanted to try to understand what Hoshi meant when they both talked the other night. He was curious of course--All of them were but they all had other things to worry about now such as their combat skills. The day after tomorrow, their informed coach are gonna come and give them basics of missions as they will probably be given one next week.

Well, they didn't see the need for Hoshi to practice as he has probably more skills than the rest and as for Jihoon, he had teh skills but well they were worried. The kid hadn't gone to sleep much this days. He joined them practicing, eat with them but other than that, he's back to that room treating Hoshi up. They already know the two didn't use their room instead using the empty one. They didn't see why not.

As for Hoshi, he..well... he didn't seemed to be fine. Bullshit! He didn't seemed fine at all. He's been unconcious for three days, coughing blood once in a while and quivering and crying in his slumber.

Jihoon who had been treating him obviously had to change his clothes so when he did, he was shocked at the scene that he went out and hugged Seokmin for who knows how long. The scars on the olders' body shocked him. Burn scars, guns, cuts that was probably made by knives, cuts that made by who knows what and a big straight cut over his chest that could actually killed someone.

No one had seen those. Just Jihoon and he didn't seemed in need to tell anyone. Maybe the older tried to keep this scars hidden as he always wore a long sleeve shirts. He also noticed that Hoshi's hands are always cold. It has a bit of heat but mainly just cold. Ice cold.

It's currently 3 p.m. when Jihoon woke up from his nap that he took next to his patient. He haven't had any lunch yet so he decided to move his lazy body towards the ground floor seeing only Mingyu and Seokmin there, probably resting from their practice.

Seokmin saw his hyung and wave a little, calling Jihoon over. "Hyung, come eat. We made stew today." Jihoon look at his friends and walk towards the kitchen and helping himself with the foods.

"Jihoon hyung. How is he? Any better?" Mingyu suddenly ask after Jihoon had taken his seat next to Seokmin. Jihoon just shook his head and began to devour his food. Both the younger let out a sigh and slouch on their chairs earning a questioning looks from Jihoon.

"What's wrong?"

Seokmin let out another sigh and sip his drinks before answering. "Its just that I thought Hoshi hyung had opened up to us when we practiced together but after witnessing that thing and him not waking up for three days, I don't know anymore. There's just a lot of things that we don't know about him."

Jihoon and Mingyu nod, knowing that they felt the same. Jihoon however did know something about Hoshi. Like the one they talked about that night and the thing about his constant mumbling and his body. He actually wanted to tell the others. Just he's scared that Hoshi might not want anyone to know yet. About his body and that weird dreams he's having. But maybe...just maybe Jihoon thought that Hoshi wouldn't mind him telling them about a part of his past that Jihoon knew and with that, he made a conclusion.

"Hey guys. I wanted to tell you something tonight. All 11 of you." And with that, Jihoon left the table not forgetting to wash his dishes, he make his way upstairs again.
