thursday morning. a day after minghao had gave his advice to mingyu in coming upon the group to apologize. yet, mingyu was still nervous that he might be turned down, again. but just as minghao said, he'll always be there for him whatever happens after. and that made him quite settle down. so here he was on lunch, standing a few meters away from the group. he couldnt find minghao anywhere, so he needed to go by himself.

"oh shit what am i supposed to do?"

he softly murmurs to himself, panicking. where are you, minghao. regardless of his nervousness and agitated self, he slowly walks closer to the table where his friends were. ok you can do this.

with no other hindering, he approached the group. still with a heavy heart. he saw a familiar figurine sitting within the said table, and it happened to belong to minghaoㅡwhich made him calm for a moment. he didnt want to waste any more minute, so he walked to the group, then cleared his throat.

the boys flashed him a shocking look, for he had come up to them at a sudden; regardless knowing the uncertain situation with them. "w-what do you want?" jihoon speaks, ignoring the sight of the younger. "i-im actually here to sayㅡ"

he glances at minghao, who was yearning to the next word that flies out of his mouth. "to s-say sorry." receiving a statement like this, made minghao proudㅡbut left the other boys surprised. "w-what?" was soonyoung only reply. "i-i want to say sorry. what ive done was really terrible. and im here to make it up to you guys. its okay if you dont accept my apology, i understandㅡ"

"no. because we do."

"r-really?" mingyu lifts his head, feeling seungkwan's hand atop his shoulder, and hearing a response like that, made him silently feel delight. "yeah. minghao-hyung explained why you had to do that. and we understand. we know you wanted that wonwoo guy back, so its okay to make mistakes in the process of achieving such things."

"wow." he answered. "justㅡwow. i d-dont think i could ever repay all of your kindness towards me." mingyu says with sincerityㅡknowing that he had said sorry in a whim, and earning great feedback from his friends. "aeyy. dont worry about that." seungkwan says. mingyu grins at the result of his action, and minghao gave him a wink, and a thumbs up from his seatㅡapproving the act of mingyu.

"soㅡ"

jihoon was cut off by a few voices coming from afar that shouted at them. and it was those 3 figurines who came closer to them, with sincere looks. "h-hey guys! lookㅡw-we're sorry aboutㅡmingyu?"

hansol who was about to express their apology on behalf of the 3, was shocked to see mingyu who was with the group in a sudden. "h-hi. no. im supposed to s-say sorry. i took advantage of my actions andㅡ" hansol gave the taller a tight hug before he could even finish his sentence. "we're just glad youre back, hyung."

mingyu who found the quick deed of the younger; astounding, only hugged him backㅡa wide smile stretching on his face. jun and jisoo could only nod in responseㅡfor the group was once again, reunited (with minghao).

"okay. so as i was saying, our break is coming next week, isnt it?" seungkwan takes his seat next to minghao, continuing their discussion as all of them are finally complete. "yeah. oh and i forgot to tell you that we're actually going toㅡ"

and for the umpteenth time that day, another interruption had been made as a sweet-honey-liked voice nears them. the person whom seemingly owned the voice, hops towards the table where the boys where at. and as expected, the first to notice the bubbly boy, was seungkwan.

"hi!"

"damn- SEOKMIN-HYUNG!" seungkwan rapidly rises up and threw his hands over the older, bringing him into a warm embrace. "KWANNIE!" seokmin replied in a yell. then the boys made their way to welcome their long lost friend. "my seokie!" soonyoung yelps, giving another embrace to the smiling boy. "hyung! ah i missed you!"
