HoSeok never was at school as early as that day, right after winter break. Being the first one in the classroom, he walked around nervously, almost constantly looking at the clock that hang above the door. With every sound from the hallway, he stood for a moment, to listen, analyze, hoping to see that one person he badly wanted to meet.
And he finally did.
With blank face, quietly a boy that seemed deep in his thought appeared, and not minding anything around here walked toward his desk. Not making any noise he unpacked his stuff, focused on doing that enough nit to notice HoSeok, which resulted him jumping out of surprise as he felt hand on his shoulder.
"H-Hobi, you scared me." Whispered SeokJin, placing hand on his heart, soon after laughing quietly. "What are you doing here so early? It's not like you." He noticed, after the older apologized for spooking him.
"I waited for you." Admitted Jung. "You weren't answering, so I wanted to be at school as soon as possible to check on you."
SeokJin sighed quietly, playing nervously with sleeves of his shirt, that was hidden under warm ssweater
"I'm sorry. I didn't want to bring you into my family's problems." The younger one didn't even looked at HoSeok's worried face.
"I'm your friend and I want to help you." Said the other one, feeling as if making sure the younger is safe was his responsibility. "Why won't you let me?"
"Because it'll only harm you. Please. I'll manage, nothing is going on." Answered Jin.
"Nothing is happening? I saw enough, heard enough to know that it isn't nothing."
"HoSeok, I beg you. If you think of me as of your friend, then trust me. I don't want you to get more involved for your own good. I don't want to remember what's happening at home when I'm with you and the others, at that times I want to forget about it. Let me. Let me keep you away from this whole mess." The younger boy said with pleading voice. "I promise, I swear, I'll explain everything to you, when the right time comes. Just be patient."
Jung wanted to argue, get any information out of his desperate friend, but at that exact moment one of their classmates appeared in the room. He kept quiet as he knew that it wouldn't be a good idea to talk about it when another pair other curious ears was nearby.
But it didn't mean that he gave up.
