It was silent in the waiting room, the five boys sitting next to eachother, waiting for something to happen. After the police had showed up at the institution, everything went very quickly. Arrests happened everywhere, multiple ambulances started taking patients to the hospital, yells and screams from the 'wronged' nurses had filled the place. A few policemen had escorted the boys to the ambulances, and Kun and Yangyang were taken to the hospital with high speed. Ten tried to explain as much to the officers as he could, but the officers assured him that there would be a big investigation into the case and that all victims, abusers and witnesses will be interviewed later. Ten and the rest headed back to the gate, getting in Hendery's car and driving to the hospital as well. Now they were sitting there, silent and waiting for something. Ten had already asked multiple nurses if they could give him some information, but Kun and Yangyang had to undergo multiple checks and tests before anybody could say if they were safe. Ten let out a deep sigh, getting slightly impatient. "Why is this taking so long? Don't you guys think they should've had answers by now?" Winwin shrugged and looked at Ten. "If they're doing bloodtests or the monitoring takes a long time.. maybe not." Ten crossed his arms, being worried about his best friend. Winwin put a hand on Ten's shoulder, smiling gently at him. "They will be okay. We came just in time."
A few moments later, a nurse came out and turned to the five boys. "Ten?" Ten immediately jumped up and nodded. "Yes, that's me." "Mr. Qian and the unnamed boy are doing just fine. We gave them medicine that should help their bodies get rid of the toxins and they should be okay with a lot of rest." Ten smiled and bowed out of gratitude, being overly happy that they were okay. "Thank you, nurse. Thank you so much." Ten took a deep breath. "Can we see them?" The nurse looked at the five boys, questioning if it was good idea. "Well.. they are in a seperate room together but.. if you are quiet so you don't disturb any others patients, you can visit." Ten nodded and looked at the others. "We can do that, right?" The four boys nodded and got up, all smiling of relief. The nurse lead them to the room and let them in, closing the door behind them. Ten slowly walked past the curtain, seeing Kun on the first hospital bed. Ten walked to him, the others following suit. Ten placed a hand on Kun's shoulder, biting his lip. "Kun.. we're here. And.. you're safe now." Ten softly stroked over his friend's shoulder, seeing him open his eyes weakly. Ten smiled at Kun, Kun smiling back as he recognized who it was. "Ten.." "Yes.. the others are here too, look." Ten pointed at the others, who all waved and smiled at Kun. Kun watched the others, letting out a soft sigh. "Oh my god... Thank you guys.." Ten tilted his head. "Well.. you gave us a message.. I couldn't just sit still.." "I'm so thankful that you came.." Kun whispered softly, still weak and exhausted from everything. Winwin chuckled. "It's what friends do. We help eachother." The boys all nodded in agreement, all placing a hand somewhere on Kun's body, letting him feel they were really there. Kun then looked to the side, seeing Yangyang asleep on the bed next to him. "You guys might not understand but.. I did it for him." Kun wanted to reach out to Yangyang, but gave up as he was clearly out of reach. "If he wakes up.. please comfort him. Show him I'm here.. tell him he's okay." Ten looked at the sleeping boy, nodding slightly. "I'll do it. His name is Yangyang, right? I carried him out of there.." Kun smiled, looking at Ten. "Yes. Yangyang. He's pretty special."

After a few days of recovery in the hospital, Kun and Yangyang were allowed to go home. The police investigation was still going, and Kun had done dozens of interviews with officers to tell his side of the story. All newspapers were filled with the inhumane conditions and horror stories that were now uncovered, people spreading rumours and grieving about the secrets that had been kept from them. Kun put on his jacket, watching Yangyang nervously looking around. "Nervous? It'll be okay, Yang. Ten will come and get us and drive us home." Kun walked to Yangyang, placing a hand on his shoulder. Yangyang looked at Kun, sighing slightly and pulling him close. Kun stroked over Yangyang's head, letting him hide in his jacket. "Yang, promise me one thing. Always let me know when things don't go your way, okay? I don't want to force you into a situation you can't handle." Kun looked down at Yangyang, who nodded and tightened his grip on the older male. Kun smiled, happy that Yangyang agreed. He knew this would be a lot of new impressions and feelings for Yangyang, since the younger male had never set foot outside the institution. He rubbed Yangyang's back, hoping he could calm him down enough so that he wouldn't get a meltdown when they didn't expect it.
