"what was that?"

seokmin pointed at the paper i was holding. i placed the paper bag on the table for them to see what's inside. seokmin is the first one who look whats inside that paper bag. i saw how his mouth fromed an 'o' reaction. others went to him and also looked for what's inside the paper bag.

"wow packed lunch." jeonghan hyung said still eyes fixated with whats inside. "who gave you this?" he even picked those out and placed it at the table so that everyone can see what is it.

i shrugged my shoulder and sat next to minghao who's quite since i came here.

"soonyoung." then i rolled my eyes.

i can still remember how he forced me to take that packed lunch from him. i was really hesitant to take it since i can afford to buy foods for myself even tho i dont how to cook properly, but at least i can provide for myself. he begged me to take those so i dont have a choice. plus other girls are watching at us. i dont want an issue so i take those even if i dont want to in the very first place.

their reactions screamed giddiness. they even played their eyebrows up and down honestly mocking and playing with me. the four of them looking at me like i did something that is out of their consent. i didnt even know that soonyoung would give me a packed lunch today. geez.

"are you guys dating, already?" wonwoo asked still plastered a playful smile on his face.

i rolled my eyes. "no way! we are not!" i defended myself cause its true.

"or is he courting you?" now seungkwan asked. they even opened the packed lunch and they started to eat those without my permission.

i shook my head. "he is not."

they started to eat the foods included in the lunch box. i just ate three sushi but i gave one to minghao who has been so quite today. he even flinched when i waved my hands in front of his face. he's like thinking about something. he's spacing out again. my forehead creased as i hit him in his arms to gain him back to reality.

"ouch!"

he groaned in pain which earned the attention of everyone who was busy eating the lunch box. minghao held his right arm and he even carassed it carefully. i became even confused as to why he's acting so weird.

"what? is that hurt?"

he glared at me. "of course hyung it hurts! i couldn't have winced like that if its not."

"what happened then? you're spacing out minghao. mind telling us the problem?" jeonghan hyung asked him worriedly.

i even looked at him with worried eyes. i may not be as affectionate as seokmin, seungkwan and jeonghan hyung are, but i still care. i know how to care for someone, mostly with the five of them. im treating them like my own family even if we are not blood related.

"i-its nothing. i just accidentally hit my arms somewherㅡ"

"that's the lamest reason you got there." i said frimly looking at him straight to his eyes. "tell me, your boyfriend did that again, aint he?"

"of course not!" he defended him. he even rolled his eyes to me. "why would he do that? he loves me so much."

"it isn't love anymore, hao. wake up."

"its still love. you guys dont know everything so shut your mouth! excuse me."

i was about to halt minghao but he pushed my arms and started to walked away from us. i heave a sighed as the five of us exchange confusing glances. curiosity and worried are evident on our faces. though, its not the first time minghao acted like that. its just that, we wanted him to tell us whats happening, of course, we didnt know everything unless he would tell us. we are here to help him, not to tolarate him. we are family.

we are all gone silent as we finished our lunch. i got back to my classes still thinking if minghao is okay. my mind was too pre-occupied by that and it cause me lacked of focus on the professor in front discussing about something. i heave a sighed and leaned my back against the chair. waiting for the prof to dismissed.

it took him two hours before he finally dismissed the class. school hours are over, and by that i have time to look for minghao and helped him with his problems. i went out of the univeristy, still handling the paper bag until i reached to our dorm. i went upstairs and stopped by minghao's unit. i was about to knocked on the door when i suddenly heard him on my side.

"im fine. you dont have to worry." he said nonchalantly like we never been closed even today.

"i just want to helㅡ"

"if you're going to tell me to break up with him, its no use. we love each other, stop getting on our way."

he was about to opened his unit when i held his arms tight enough, but he just winced in pain that i need to let it go after a second.

"get your own business! i dont need your help!" then he shout me out and slammed the door in front of my face.
