"Pssst! White boy!" Kai called Sehun's attention who was walking meters ahead of him. The younger looked back upon hearing.

     "Yup, dark kid?" Sehun launched the bitter tirade.

     "Ouch... That hurts..." He acted like an emphatic theater actor.

     "I'm just kidding. I mean, dark kidding." The other blankly replied.

     "Yeah, yeah. Fine. I'm also kidding, not adulting."

     "Such lameness you have there."

     "The hell I care. Anyway, why so blank?"

     "Do I have to tell you the reason?"

     "Which one? Parents or that deer boy?"

     "Both." Sehun replied so cold and blank.

     "Then, you should have said 'Do I have to tell you the reasons?'."  Kai said and tried to mimic Sehun's blank and cold manner of speaking.

     "Two things. First, 7 out of 10 for that mimicking part. Second, fine. Whatever. You win, you grammar nazi."

     "Thanks. I know, right?"

     "Uhh... How boastful." Sehun reacted, a bit annoyed with the windy aura of the y-bronze-skinned boy.

     "Yah! I'm not! I just know the truth!" Kai argued and the white one decided to give it up.

     "Whatever. You're becoming like a brat."

     "Really? That means I'm becoming like you?" The older asked with some sort of sparkling eyes. The puppy was kinda annoyed once again.

     "Oww!!! 'kay! Sorry. I'm just joking!" He reacted to Sehun's jab.

     "Brat." Coldly he commented.

     "Like you." The other whispered to himself.

     "What did you say?" Sehun heard him.

     "Nothing. I said, hate you. I hate you for hitting me." He said with a pout.

     "Pretty little liar."

     "Say what you want. Phew... But you know, hyung was pretty worried about you."

     "For me?"

     "No. For the both of you. He doesn't want to have an ill friendship with you."

     "Really? Well... I don't want that, too. I have realized it and the thought does terrorize me, knowing he's no longer my friend. I might lose one precious hyung. Call me overacting but you know how much I value things and persons important to me, right? And that's why I'll be voicing out my apologies." He said like a whining puppy.

     "Ahh... Just admit it, you just don't want to lose his free treats. Especially, bubble tea." And Sehun showed his ball of fist with a face asking like 'Do you want another taste of this?'.

     "Uhh... Heh. H-Hehe." Kai laughed nervously. "I-I'm just joking." He continued, afraid of another painful blow. Sehun put down his fist and afterwards, Kai smiled a genuine smile.

     "Be careful with your jokes."

     "Yes, sir. By the way, since it's Friday, why not hang-out at home for a while?" Kai offered with a bright smile. "At least, he's not that dark at all. His eyes can sparkle and his smile can be bright." Sehun thought to himself as he had noticed those.

     "Hmmm.... Okay. But we'll check first if my parents are at home or not, is that okay?" Sehun stated the condition.

     "Oh sure. For you, bestfriend." And he beamed his smile again.

     "Thanks." And he returned the smile.

     They checked it out and as expected (but different from what Sehun hoped), there's no presence of the Oh couple. Sehun opted to get changed and to leave his things. He just brought his cellphone with him and they're off to the Kim's residence.

     They arrived after few minutes of walking. They were greeted by Mrs. Kim who's about to leave for grocery shopping together with Mr. Kim and Kai's twelve year-old brother, Ryeowook. Kai's parents and brother gave him the consent and bade goodbye to him. Mrs. Kim separated from her son with a light cheek to cheek kiss and drove away.

     "Hyung? I'm home." The younger Kim called out after closing the door. He expected for an answer as what his brother usually does but there's none.

     "Let's go upstairs. I guess, he's not that okay." Kai spoke in a low volume. They went to Suho's room and Kai knocked. Receiving no answer, he came in alone.

     "Hey." Suho said after he noticed his brother.

     "What's up? Still feeling ill?" Kai walked to the windows and spread out the blue curtains.

     "Nah. I'm just tired." He answered, shuffling in his bed.

     "You sure?"

     "Yes."

     "Fine. By the way, I've brought company." Kai said as he inched forward to his hyung.

     "Huh?" Joonmyeon uttered curiously and then someone came in.

     "Hyung..." The one who entered spoke. The older blinked and blinked quickly. He was in utter shock.

     "S-S-S-S-Sehun-ah? Y-y-you're here..." He stuttered with teary eyes. Not knowing what to do, he just hid under his blue blanket. A low sob was then heard, making Kai roll his eyes to his brother's childishness.

     Sehun came closer and sat down on the edge of the bed. He touched him and the figure ceased from slightly shaking. Sehun was set to a blue mood and prepared to speak.

     "Hyung, I don't know what came into my mind that I did that to you. I'm so sorry, I didn't totally mean to. It's just that...phew...that boy. Hyung, I don't want to lose a friend and a brother. Hyung, I'm sorry."

     The blanket flew away and a pouting boy can be seen sitting on cross-legs on his own bed. "Really? I'm also so sorry, Sehun-ah. Maybe I'm just irritated when I found out that you received your karma since you didn't listen to me. You know that I'm just worried about you, am I not? I've tried to avoid that and I constantly warned you about the things that might happened, right?" Suho sounded sincerely apologetic. Sehun nodded together with a smile with no teeth shown. Sehun spread out his arms and they remained into a hug for some time.

     "Aah... Cheeseballs." The y-bronze-skinned complained as if what he saw was some scene worth puking. The two then pulled away.

     "Spoiler! You spoiled the moment!" Suho reacted and Kai just rolled his eyes.

     "Well, anyhow hyung, are we good?" Sehun asked with raised eyebrows.

     "Hmmm....." Suho expressed his hesitation.

     "Don't worry. I'll apologize to that boy."

     "Promise me that." And it made the younger nod.

     "Okay. We're in good terms again. Just remember what I told you before. Pride is the only poison that when swallowed, gives cure."

     "Yeah. I have thought of it and you're right. Thanks, hyung." Sehun managed to wink after that statement. Kai just thought something went into his eyes.

     "Good thing. Why not befriend him?" The suggestion made Sehun react like he's gagging.

     "Bweeh..." is what Sehun managed to say. Suho raised his eyebrow.

     "But you promised you'll apologize to him."

     "Exactly. No more, no less. That means, befriending him doesn't count anymore."

     "Sehun." Suho spoke blankly with half-lidded eyes.

     "Fine. Fine. I'll try." He seemed he gave up.

     "Just don't try. Do it. Make it happen."

     "But hyung!? What if I can't?!" White puppy doubted.

     "You can, Sehun. You can. It's not like a punch to the moon." Suho said seriously yet convincingly.

     "No, I can't. I'll never can." Sehun replied quickly.

     "Sehun. I thought you swallowed your pride and let down insecurity already."

     "Yes. But only to you."

     "Sehun." Suho warned.

     "Hyung!" Sehun complained.

     "Fight! Fight! Fight! Fight!" Kai tried to stir up a fight but both looked at him sharply and he received a couple of strikes on the chest. "Owww..." is what he only managed to utter before he mumbled stuffs.

     "Sehun, believe me. You can do it. I believe in you. I believe in your miracles." He encouraged him with a contagious smile.

      "'What' and 'ever'. Don't blame if I won't be able to make it."

     "Hot heads and cold hearts can't solve things together, but instead they worsen the situation as they stir up anger. Try to avoid them." Joonmyeon left a word of knowledge again and Sehun just blew his bangs up with a matching drooping of his eyelids.

     "By the way, did Baekhyun-hyung apologized already?"

     "Yes. Baekhyun already apologized yesterday when you walked out. Didn't he tell you?"

     "Err.... No."

    "Maybe Chanyeol bit his neck off already." Kai commented with an evil smirk.

     "What are you talking about? I know who Chanyeol's crush is."

     "A crush is just a crush, hyung. You can have a lot of them although you already love someone." He replied and added a mehrong.

     "My instincts tell me that whom he loves is actually Baekhyun. In fact, I also know who your crush is and it's-" He tried to reveal but he was cut.

     "Shut up, Kim Jongin! Keep that to yourself!" Suho blurted out in panic. Sehun was just left dumbfounded.

     "Huh? Who is it, Kai? I wanna know." Sehun asked curiously.

     "Nevermind that, Sehun It's nothing." Suho tried to convince him.

     "If it's nothing, then, tell me. It's not something that matters, is it?" Sehun found an advantage to know the crush of his Suho-hyung. He's really eager to know.

     "It's... Park Chanyeol, Oh Sehun. That's why he argued with my Baekyeol comment earlier." Kai lied and Sehun kinda hesitated to believe. Suho had a very shocked reaction when he heard the word "It's". "No, no, no." Suho thought He doesn't want Sehun know that he has a crush on him...yet.

     "Suho and Kai together made a play in order to keep Suho's dear secret. With all their efforts and skills, they somehow made the puppy believe. Suho felt guilty but there's nothing else he could do. Deep inside him, he blames Kai for the fallacy they have made.

---

     It's lunch time and Kai haven't noticed Sehun disappear. He had no choice but to wait for him on their spot on the canteen, their official rendezvous.

     The four guys we're having a talk the issue between Suho, Baekhyun, Sehun and that doe-eyed boy. After some while, Kai felt the urge to look for Sehun and so he left the table after asking permission.

     The three were still talking when Sehun showed up already. He's not alone and it brought curiosity to the three. His left arm was gently coiled around a small figure with owl-like eyes. The others thought, "Do Sehun always has something to do with animal-like eyes?"

     "Sehun?" Suho asked with cockfighting eyebrows.

     "Ah. Hyungs, you might wonder who this boy is. I would like you to meet Do Kyungsoo. Kyungsoo, this is Baekhyun-hyung. Then, Chanyeol-hyung and Joonmyeon-hyung. Just call him Suho." Sehun introduced.

     "Ah... H-hello. Nice to meet you all." Kyungsoo greeted shyly as he bowed down politely. "You may call me D.O. or Dyo. Please take care of me." He added with every ounce of courage he had gathered just to let out his sweet gentle voice.

     "Ahh. Nice to meet you, too, Dyo." Suho greeted back first with a grin that seemed to extend from ear to ear and the other two just followed.

     "I've met him on the rooftop when I walked out of sight due to the issue with the deer. Since then, we became good friends and we always text each other. And now, I hope that you, too, could be good friends. And... Would you mind if he would join us here every lunch?"

     "Of course not. We wouldn't mind and it's really okay. He's always welcome here. Right, guys?" Suho said with a pair of sparkling eyes and the others agreed whole-heartedly. Kyungsoo felt delighted and thanked Sehun secretly.

     "Uhmmm..... Did I miss out something?" Kai let out the question right after he came back and saw a cute little figure.
