I watch Hyunjin settle in his bed. It's way more unfortunate now that we have our own rooms. We're all alone.

What were we supposed to do? Minho was right. It's happening to all of us, and to me, it seems to be getting worse. Hyunjin was gone all day. Seungmin's voice was replenished an hour ago, but he's been silent all day.

Minho's fear only lasted a few minutes. Mine lasted maybe ten. It's getting longer. Is that an important detail to focus on or does the time it last depend on our fear? There are so many questions to this and we're getting no answers.

Who's going to be next? Minho was wrong about Jeongin. It was hitting the other house rather than finishing ours. Was he
going to be last? Was it actually a random order?

Hyunjin is fast asleep when I look at him. He's had a long day. I feel worse for him than any of the others. At least we had each other. He's been stuck by himself for hours on end, unable to speak to anyone.

He's cuddled into my chest as I hold onto him. No wonder why he wouldn't let Chan go. He couldn't, not wouldn't. That's a bad fear to have. To be lost.

I think about my other members. I didn't know their deepest phobias. The people who were left never talked about their fears. Chan, Changbin, Jisung, and Jeongin.

Half of us had already been hit. Was it going to get worse from here?
