The sound of shoes stepping against the tiled floor of the hospitals hallway echo throughout, as the elderly woman garbed in all pale blue scrubs comes to a stop as she makes her way into the waiting room area. She clears to garner the attention of the four young boys who appear to have fallen asleep while waiting on any kind of news about their friend.    Nurse: "hello boys... Your friend is awake now. You can go see him if you wish."           JR stands up, the balloons tied around his wrist knock against one another as he then begins to wake up the other members by shaking them each gently. Groggily they each look around the brightly lit room upon being awoken and smile in response to the rather large smile which is being displayed by JR. The nurse makes her way out of the waiting area and the boys each reach for the gifts they each brought to cheer up their comrad.    JR: "come on you guys, Baekho just woke up, and the nurse said that we can go see him now."   Aron: "whoo hoo!"   Minhyun : "can we all go? Or do we have to go in one at a time?"   JR: "I'm sure he wouldn't mind all of us showing up at once. I'm pretty sure that's what he's expecting."           JR motions for them all to stand and follow him as he makes his way toward the doorway of the waiting room. Minhyun reaches for a small red gift bag which he placed on the empty chair beside him, before he proceeds to walk behind JR. Aron stands up slowly, a bouquet of sunflowers clutched tightly in his grasp. He begins to follow the others as they step from doorway and out into the hall.           Aron pauses briefly before looking back and turning his body to face the still seated Ren. His slender arms wrap tightly around the large white plush tiger he bought to cheer up Baekho. He begins to motion forward and stops directly in front of Ren. He kneels down and shoots forth a cheerful smile whilst waving the bouquet of flowers in his face in an attempt to grab his attention.    Aron: "what's wrong princess?"           A half smile forms on Rens face as his eyes slowly make their way away from his gift and up to face Aron. His arms wrap even tighter around the stuffed tiger as he releases a light sigh. Aron continues to playfully wave the bouquet about now trying to get him to speak.    Ren: "I'm scared hyung."   Aron: "scared? Scared of what?"   Ren: "I don't want to see Baekho... Not like that."   Aron: "awww, don't worry, he's fine. If he wasn't, the nurse wouldn't have told us that it was okay to go see him."   Ren: "I guess you're right. Hospitals just make me feel-"   Aron: "yeah, I don't think anybody really likes to be at hospitals. Unless you're having a baby or coming to see a baby! Or-"   Ren: "...hyung..."   Aron: "ah, right! but our Baekho, He needed to be here, if not, he might have eventually had to leave the group. We're here for good news! Maybe not baby good news! But good news nonetheless! Actually... Baby tiger good news, eh?"   Ren: "oh hyung..."   Aron: "ha! So cheer up! That way we can go cheer up Baekho, together!"   Ren: "okay hyung. Thank you."            Aron positions himself upright and reaches out his hand to Ren. He smiles brightly accepting the assistance and the stands up from his seat. He lets go of Aron's hand Just before his arms wrap around the stuffed animal again and the two make their way down the hall and toward Baekho's hospital room.          Ren pauses as Aron steps forth and joins the others in the room. He looks to the large balloons tied to the foot of the bed beside where JR is seated. Aron stops directly behind Minhyun who is seated on a chair bedside. He looks to Baekho nervously. The sight of all the machinery, wires, and IV's causes him to panic, and step out and away from the doorway.          His heart begins to race, and his arms raise upward. He buries his face against the plush tiger as his eyes begin to water. His body presses against the wall and then slides down slowly till he is seated there beside the door. JR looks around and realizes that Ren never came inside. He stands up and then steps out of the room. His head turns from left to right rapidly as he finds no sign at all of where Ren could be.          At the sound of sniveling, JR lowers his head and he finally sees Ren just sitting there. He steps around him then seats himself to his side. He just stares at Ren before his body sways to the side and his shoulder bumps against his.    JR: "why aren't you inside with the rest of us?"           JR just continues to stare at him, watching as Ren shrugs in response to his question. Feeling his strong gaze he looks over at JR once quickly before looking away in the opposite direction once again shaking his head.    JR: "Baekho will be sad if you don't go in and give him his present."   Ren: "I don't want that."   JR: "so come inside. He's fine, he just can't speak. Once his vocal cords heal though, he'll be good as new, better even! the nurses gave him a chalk board and we've been making each other laugh writing silly... Well... Writing dirty notes to each other."
