Kyuhyun is on a mission, a mission that will change all of their lives.

Super Junior is dying. Their members are dropping, and with it their fanbase. They could do nothing to prevent it.

Or so they thought, until Kyuhyun made a decision that changed his life and the way he views it.

[extract] It hurt.

Kyuhyun stared at the phone in his hand, face stoic despite all the feelings tumbling inside of him.

It hurt.

“Who are you to dictate how Super Junior lives or dies, hyung?!”

Kyuhyun’s eyes closed.

It hurt.

Maybe he wasn’t meant to dictate the situation to his ideal solution.

Maybe he wasn’t meant to dictate how everything should go.

Maybe he wasn’t meant to dictate over his friends and family.

He shouldn’t have done it.

He shouldn’t have done it.

He shouldn’t have, and he should stop the façade right now.

A sigh released from between his lips.

He will end this.

He unlocked his phone.

He will make it all better again.

He went to the “Phone” app.

He will stop the madness.

He went to the keypad.

He will go home.

He dialled Leeteuk’s number.

He will be okay again.

The dial tone began.

Kyuhyun’s face stayed towards the ground as he listened to the serene song through the phone.

Leeteuk’s ringtone.

Kyuhyun waited for a few seconds before the phone was answered.

“Hello?” Leeteuk’s crackly, tired voice came through the phone.

Kyuhyun swallowed, his throat suddenly jammed and tears climbing into his eyes.

“… Hello?”

There was nothing else for it.

“Hyung?” Kyuhyun choked out, overwhelmed.

“Hello? Who is this?”

“Hyung – hyung…” Kyuhyun sobbed, his years falling freely. “I – I…”

“Kyuhyun?” Leeteuk suddenly said. “Kyuhyun?!”

“Hyung,” Kyuhyun cried out loud.

“Oh my God, Kyuhyun…” Leeteuk choked out. “Where are you? Where are you?!”

“Hyung… I want – I want to come home.”
