A knock form his door was heard as he continued staring out his window not answering to his name being called out by his other older brother,

"Renjun"

"Renjunnie,"

"Junnie,"

"Jun."

"Huang Renjun!" He was shook by his shoulder enough to make eye contact with the latter and to finally realize that he was actually here and not in his mind.

"Im sorry, Ge. What is it?" He asked soullessly.

"We have to clean out his room today," Hendery said as he leaned on his brother's door frame.

"No." He uttered out as he barely was able to keep his eyes away from the busy city life, that seemed to not care much that he

"But mom said so,"

"No," he muttered again.

"Renjun, it's been a month. We have to start now or else we'll never start the process of moving past this-"

"Then don't start!"He yelled out, "he's here. He's with me, and I refuse to forget about him." He yelled as he pointed to his heart.

"We're not trying to forget about him, we're trying to move on." Hendery tried to convince the younger, "We have to move on, and let him be happy wherever he is. We can't literally kill ourselves over losing him!"

"Moving on? So soon? He's only been gone a couple months and mom and dad are so ready to turn his room into a gym or studio. What's the point of being happy if he won't be here with us, with me, with you? How can you be so okay with this?" He cried out

"I'm not okay with this, Renjun," he said as he sat in front of the younger, turning him to face him, "None of us are of course, but we are trying to relive the best moments of Lucas, not wallow in what he was in the last few months of his life,"

"I don't know if I can do that," The younger muttered as he forgot about the latter in the room staring at the wall that used to be filled with some of his greatest memories, now plain and empty. Like the room next door was going to be soon enough.

"Yet. You can't do it yet, but this takes time." Hendery sighed out as he looked sadly at the wall, and caressed his little brother's cold hands, "We will all get through this. We have to."
