Chapter 28
What Happens in Seoul~Third Person POV~
The company van pulled in through the driveway, and Jonghun hopped out. He bid goodnight to his manager before heading into his dorm, tired from his night's busy schedule. The creak of the door was the only noise that could be heard. The silence of the night had taken over, yet for some reason, the lights inside were still on. Curious about this observation, he looked around for the others.
As soon as they heard him enter the room, Jaejin and Minhwan sprung to their feet.
"Hyung," Minhwan said, standing up from the couch, "We need to talk to you."
"Right now? Isn't it getting a bit late? I thought you guys would already be asleep," he scratched the back of his neck.
"It's important; it's about Seunghyun," Jaejin continued.
Warily, he walked over to the two. "Did something happen?"
They both sighed, exchanging a brief glance.
"Seunghyun's been cutting himself," Minhwan revealed.
After a moment, Jonghun exhaled a breath that he didn't realize he was holding, swearing under his breath. "But...when did you find out?"
"Just tonight; Minhwan saw him," Jaejin explained sadly.
"So, what do we do now?" Minhwan asked.
Jonghun shook his head slowly. "Things can't go on like this. It's because of Hongki I bet... Seunghyun is still in love with Natalie."
Jaejin nodded. "I was afraid of that. Just a gut feeling, you know..."
"I don't think Hongki hyung even realizes what he's doing to Seunghyun," Minhwan mentioned, and all three were thinking deeply.
"We have to tell Hongki. We have to tell him that it can't go on like this any longer," Jonghun finally spoke through the heavy silence.
~Hongki's POV~
I attempted to dry my hair a bit with a towel after I finished showering, but quickly abandoned the endeavor. Walking back into my room, I stopped as my door suddenly closed behind me. Jonghun stood up in front of me, and I noticed Jaejin at the side. I turned around, only to see that Minhwan was the one that had shut the door.
"Sit down, hyung," Minhwan said, as I was still staring at him.
I frowned at them in confusion. "What's going on?"
Jaejin walked up to me. "It's about Natalie."
"And Seunghyun," Minhwan added.
Jonghun made me face him. "...And you."
