A little review~
The others seems to take notice of the condition and clean their food letting Hyunjin talk to Jeongin. Jeongin is the close to Chan, Hyunjin, and Seungmin. With Chan not here, Hyunjin and Seungmin is the one who can Jeongin hold on too. He hate to disappoint people especially his closest one. With him blabbering about Jisung's time schedule and making him mad at him, at least that what he thought, make him feel like he is not supposed to be here. With him here will only make their group condition worsen.

Hyunjin:*softly* Innie, it's not your fault. Okay?
Jeongin:*sad* I do-don't know hyung. Jisung hyung looks mad. I am not supposed to say that to Minho hyung. I- *pause* I just ma-
Hyunjin:*softly* Innie, no one is mad at you. You are not wrong. Jisung's schedule is wrong and we need to make him know that too.
Jeongin:*sad* B-but I'm not supposed to te-tell that to Minho hyung. *panic* He will get more worried and wh-what i-
Hyunjin:*cut Jeongin* Hey, hey, breath. Whatever your are thinking won't happen. It won't. I will make sure of that. What about this, for tonight we will let you sleep in Jisung's studio. You can talk to him and tell him that you are sorry. How about that?
Jeongin: I don't know. What if he get angrier?
Hyunjin: He won't. If he is, *show off his muscle* I will beat that into his mind.
Jeongin:*chuckle* You can't do that hyung. I'll try talking to Jisung hyung. *smile* Thank you hyung!
Hyunjin:*tease**tap on his cheek* Give me a kiss here.
Jeongin:*blush* Wh-what?! No way!
Hyunjin:*pout* Come on, please. Just one.
Hyunjin who received the kiss that he has been craving since, jump up and down in excitement that untill Felix need to tackle him down to make him calm down. Seungmin make Hyunjin to send Jeongin to Jisung's studio and saying goodbye to Jeongin.
Hyunjin:*encouraging* Hey, you are gonna be okay. You are a strong one!
Jeongin: *unsure* I don't know hyung. *panic* Wh-what if I messed up?!
Hyunjin: You won't. I can make sure of that. *push Jeongin lightly* Now, go and talk to him.
Jeongin:*smile* Okay hyung. Wish me luck.
Jeongin knock on the door waiting for the response that he want to hear. But instead of the usual response that he would get, a groan and a harshly open door was the one that he got. Making him stumble back and got scared. Jisung's face expression is unreadable. There is anger, sadness, tiredness, a lot are there. Jeongin gulp down his saliva that have been stucked for awhile because of the feeling he felt before take a light step toward Jisung.
Jeongin:*scared* Hy-hyung?
Jisung:*harshly* What?!
Jeongin:*scared* E-em, can we ta-talk hy-hyung?
Jisung:*pause* Come inside.
Jeongin get inside and stay there, standing infront of the door scared to make any movement not wanting to make Jisung any angrier again.
Jisung:*sigh* I- *pause* I'm sorry. I'm not supposed to said that to you.
Jisung's eyes slowly trailed to Jeongin. His eyes fill of regret. He sensed that Jeongin is scared of him so he slowly approach Jeongin's hand pulling it slowly close to him. Jeongin flinch a little when Jisung's hand finally touch his, slowly he met Jisung's eyes and follow his guide to sit beside him.
Jeongin:*scared* Hy-hyung, I'm so-sorry.
Jisung:*pull Jeongin to a hug* I'm not supposed to get mad knowing that I never told you guys not to mention that to Minho hyung.
Jeongin:*worried* Then, w-we are good?
Jisung:*smile* Yes, we are good. Now, now, give me those smile.
Jeongin:*smile* Here you go hyung!
Jisung:*smile* You know, *sad* I tried to be the 3racha for you guys. But I feel tired and lost. I don't know how to start writing the lyrics or the melody.
Jeongin: You don't need to replace 3racha by yourself hyung. You have us. Hyunjin hyung, Seungmin hyung, Felix hyung, and I, want to help you.
Jisung:*sigh* I don't know. It's supposed to be mine but I can't handle it.
Jeongin: I don't think it supposed to be yours.
Jisung:*confused* What are you talking about, Jeongin? I am a part of 3racha. When two of them are absent, I suppose to take care of their part too.
Jeongin: You are supposed to take care hyung, not to take over all of it. It's not wrong to ask for help from us. We are here for you. We are not as good as Chan hyung and Changbin hyung, but I'm sure we can do at least *nervous* one thing to help you making this, hyung.
Jisung:*cry* It's hard Jeongin! It's hard! Why? Why did the accident need to happen?!
Jeongin:*softly* Hyung, *whisper* cry all you want.
Jisung:*cry* I need Chan hyung! Changbin hyung! Minho hyung! I need them! I can't! I am not that strong as what Minho hyung thought! *whisper* I need them!
Jeongin:*softly* Hyung, Chan hyung use to say these to me, nothing is your fault. No matter how hard it is, no matter how difficult it is, it's never your fault. It's just *pause* how the world goes around. And, if you are scared, you feel like drowning, you feel lost, look back. There are others behind you. They are offering their hands, you just need to take them.
Jisung calm down little by little. Sniffling are heard here and there. Jisung feel a lot better. Jeongin radiate the energy of calmness and peacefulness. When he heard the problems of other, even those who are older than him, he can make sure that their mind is in a little ease than before.
Jeongin: Hyung, lay on my lap, close your eyes, take a deep breath, and sleep. You need to sleep the stress away. Follow my instructions okay?
Jisung nod. He feel familiar with Jeongin's each words. Yes, Jeongin follow what Chan use to said to them when they are unable to fall asleep or stressed. Jisung end up falling asleep on Jeongin's lap that night. His heart feel a lot in ease. That night, he has no problem sleeping peacefully. He doesn't wake up in the middle of the night, rethinking if what he did is the right choice.
Hyunjin: How are you feeling? Better?
Jeongin:*smile* A lot better hyung. Thank you for letting me stay the night at Jisung's hyung studio.
Hyunjin:*smile* Everything for you to stay happy. *at Jisung**tease* You didn't do anything to Jeongin, did you?
Jisung:*tease* Did I?
Hyunjin:*tease* Did you?
Seungmin:*roll eyes* Stop it. Have anything for us?
Jisung:*confused* Huh? What are you taking about?
Seungmin: You look like you want to told us something.
Jisung:*realize* Oh, that. I'll tell you when our practice ends.
Felix: I have finished setting up the songs. Let's go for the formation.
They gone over the formation again and again untill their movements is as smooth as what they used to be. Their shirt is now wet by their own sweat, they use their hands as support to stand up and to stable their breath. They each take a seat, some on the sofa and some one the floor.
Felix: Anything to tell us?
Jisung: Oh, yeah, about that
Hint of worrisome was heard from his voice. Jeongin reach to hold Jisung's hand with his. He draw circle on the top of Jisung's hand. Ensuring him that everything will be okay.
Jisung:*take a deep breath* I am struggling to take care of what 3racah used to do. Like making melody, writing lyrics, and separating the parts. I- *pause* I need help. Can you, you know, help me?
Hyunjin:*raise an eyebrow* That what you wanna say?
Jisung:*feeling scared* Why?
Hyunjin: No need to ask the last question. *smile* Just give us the task, we will do everything we can, *look at everyone else* right?
Seungmin:*nod* Yeah. Of course. I can help by writing lyrics.
Hyunjin: I can help with melody.
Jeongin:*excited* I can help with lyrics!
Seungmin: Felix? *tap* Felix?
Felix seems deep in his own mind. His face express is unreadable. Worries? Seungmin called his name a few times before shaking him.
Felix:*snap out* Oh, you called?
Jeongin:*worried* Hyung, what happened?
Felix:*smile* It's nothing. Oh, and about that, I can help in melody, I don't really know how to compose.
Jisung:*chuckle* Even writing melody is already helpful enough for me. Thank you!
Seungmin: Okay, send us the file or we go to your studio now?
Jisung: Let's go to my studio first then I'll send you the file.
