"chaewon!! chaewon!!" hyejoo shouted, running down the hallway of the hospital. yeojin had texted her the news about her father and she was so heartbroken for her. hyejoo saw chaewon
sitting in chairs outside of the room that baekhyun was in.

hyejoo rushed over to them. "wonie..." she whispered quietly. chaewon didn't respond. she was just staring at the wall. tears streaming down her face as you could hear san and jiyoon in baekhyuns room, sobbing their hearts hoping that they could save him even though they knew it was too late.

chaewon sighed, leaning back into her chair. playing with her fingers. "wonie..." hyejoo sat next to her. chaewo sniffed, more tears falling from her eyes. "he's gone." she barely whispered but hyejoo could still hear her. hyejoo slowly reached for her hand. "i know...but it's going to be-." chaewon shook her head. "no i don't want to hear that! i don't want to hear the "it's gonna get better" pity messages because it isn't! it isn't going to get better it's only going to get worse!

i mean my father is dead and i-i don't even know where the hell my mother is or how the fuck he even ended up like this!! i shouldn't have fucking left the house, maybe i could've have saved him! but no i just had to fucking leave and hang out with you guys. i'm such an idiot..." hyejoo's eyes widened.

"no no you couldn't have known! chaewon please just calm down-." chaewon scoffed, "calm down??? i-i can't calm down! don't tell me to calm down! ugh i don't even know why i called you to come here just go." chaewon stood up and walked over to the room. hyejoo stood up with her following her, grabbing her wrist. "i'm not leaving you. you can't force me to leave let me be here for you...

let me be there for you like how you were when my mom passed..please don't shut me out." hyejoo looked down at chaewons wrist, rubbing her thumb over her tattoo. chaewon gulped, "ok-okay. i-i'm sorry i shouldn't have yelled at you..i don't know what's wrong with me." hyejoo gave her a small smile. "hey it's fine. i'm not mad. i just need you to calm down for me...can you do that for me? hmm?"

hyejoo wrapped her arms around her waist, rubbing her thumb against her cheek. chaewon slowly nodded, putting her head on hyejoos chest. chaewon hugged her tight, letting her tears fall once again. "i-i don't know what to do." her voice was muffled. "just hold onto hope..."

sooyoung, jiwoo, and yeojin came back from the restroom. they froze when they saw the two of them. "aweee look at them!!" jiwoo giggled, hitting yeojins arm. "ow! my arm." she pouted, rubbing it. sooyoung rolled her eyes. "come on let's just go sit down. they'll notice us soon."

jiwoo smiled widely, taking out her phone and taking pictures of them. "jiwoo!!" sooyoung glared whisper shouted at her grabbing her arm and pulling her to a seat next to her. "what?? they look so cute like that! something that WE never do!" sooyoung rolled her eyes. "here we go again with the complaining, don't you EVER get tired?"

jiwoo crossed her arms. "you never listen to me anyways.." sooyoungs faced soften. "oh..." yeojin looked around awkwardly. "uh..." sooyoung and jiwoo sat in slience, not looking at each other. yeojin slowly pulled out her and just decided to text yerim.

hyejoo and chaewon pulled away. "i have to leave soon. my aunt is driving san and i back home to pack up some of our things." hyejoo furrowed her eyebrows. "why?" "we're staying with her. san and i don't want to even look at the house anymore so we're staying there for a while. she has rooms for us..i guess it'll be nice cause my cousin will be there but....it won't be the same."

hyejoo nodded, running her fingers through chaewons hair. "you should leave soon too. i don't want luna and naeun to be worried about where you are." hyejoo chuckled. "i already told them that i would be here. i'll come with you. it's been a while since i've seen juyeon. that little shit." chaewon hit her arm. "be nice!"
