#22 - Huang Renjun

12

Author POV

Yuta picked up Jinji's head before it hit the ground. Everyone was worried. They knew that Jinji never even feels weak after practicing for so long, that it just wasn't right when she has collapsed after practicing two routines. Yuta and Mark picked her up with her arms over theirs, as they brought her over to the bench. They laid her body down as Lucas and Taeyong went to get some ice.

"I don't think she has slept much lately. Everytime I woke up in the middle of the night for the last two nights she's been awake, in her room writing." Renjun explained as he rested the ice pack on Jinji's head.

"Has anyone seen her eat?" Chenle asked the other dreamies. They just said no which made them realize.

"Last time she ate dinner with us was Thursday. Four days." Jaemin said.

"Does she eat breakfast?" Taeyong asked the dreamies.

"Never. She says it upsets her stomach. Rarely eats lunch even. Most of the time just dinner and maybe some snacks." Jeno told the others.

"Hy-hyungs.. you dont think she's starving herself? I mean she mentions her weight quite often." Jisung asked.

"No Jisung that's not like her." Renjun told the boy.

Jinji sat up after she woke up to hearing Renjun say that.

"What happened?" Jinji asked.

"Shh don't get up." Renjun said keeping her placed on the bench.

"Oh my god Yuta I'm so sorry. The first time we actually practice and this happens. I'm so sorry." She started saying.

"No don't worry. Just please- don't hurt yourself because of writing the lyrics. We still have 2 months. Take your time." Yuta replied.

"I'm gonna take you home. You need to eat and sleep." Renjun told her.

"Okay." She said, not daring to fight back after she just passed out.

Jinji POV

"I'll be back guys." Renjun said as he helped me stand up and walk back. I waved to the boys and we left.

"Jinji, why haven't you ate or slept?" Renjun said as we walked back to the dorm.

"I've been too busy. During the night I write, and during the day I practice until it hurts." I explained.

"That's not healthy. That's why you collapsed today. You need to start taking it easy and actually sleep. Like Yuta said, the lyrics can wait. And don't even get me started on eating. If I have to I will personally reach my hands into your mouth and stuff food down your throat. Food is literally the answer to everything." He told me. I just laughed at him and nodded, showing that I'll start taking care of myself better.

"You can go lay down, but I'm going to make you some ramen." Renjun told me. I nodded and went to the living room. I waited about ten minutes on my phone, and after that Renjun went over to the coffee table with a bowl of ramen on a big plate and some chips next to it.

"I may be a terrible chef but I know you like these foods so it's okay." He told me.

"Thank you Rennie." I said and smiled at him. After that he told me he needed to get back to the boys, but he made sure I promised to eat the food and to sleep after that. I ate the food he made me and then went into my room to sleep.
