Hakyeon chuckles.  It sounds real but Leo knows better. 

"Hongbin! "Leo snaps. 

"It's fine, Taekwoon. "N assures. "I already know that. You've never love me before anyway. "He says, looking down at the still crying Hongbin. "Come here, Taekwoon. Let me treat your hand. "he gestures Leo to follow him to the kitchen. 

"Hakyeon, you know Hongbin's just--"Leo tried to explain about Hongbin's words but he's cut off. 

"It's okay, really. I don't mind. "N says like it really doesn't bother him but that look in his eyes said the opposite. 

Leo realise that he just fought with N but he never said that he hate him or anything. He fought him because he wants him to know how important he's to him, how much he really means to him, how big of a role he played in his life. He just wants him back. 

So right now, it makes him feel really bad to see N like that. He wants to comfort him but he doesn't know how. 

"There,all done. Does it hurt? "N says when he finished treating Leo's hand. 

"No? "

"Good. "

"Haky--"

"Taekwoon-ah, mianhae. Jeongmal mianhae. "N's words are dripping with sincerity. "I shouldn't have left. I shouldn't abandon you. "

"I'll forgive you if you come home and stay. Don't leave us anymore. Please? "

N smiles and nods. "Sure. "He agrees. "And... you know why I won't let you see Wonshik, right? "

Leo's face turn sullen. "I just... want to apologise. "

"I know. But Wonshik's still weak. You don't want to make him stressed out, do you? "

Leo doesn't answer.

"I'll tell you when you can see him, alright? "

"Fine... "

"That's my Taekwoonie~"N cooes as he pats Leo's shoulder. 

After treating Leo's hand and reconciling with him, N left the kitchen and reapproaches Hongbin, hoping that he has calmed down. 

Hongbin is still at the same spot in front of the door, he isn't wailing anymore but his sniffs can still be heard though it's not that loud. 

"Get inside, Hongbin. You'll catch a cold staying there. "N says softly. When Hongbin doesn't move, N drops to his knees and kneels beside him. 

"It's okay if you hate me, but don't hurt yourself. "He coax. 

Hongbin hiccups. "You're the one who hated me first. "

N sighs. "I didn't hate you. I was mad. Really mad.  But not anymore. "he explains. "You know how much that diary really means to me. "

"I know. "Hongbin scoots away from the elder. "A diary means so much more than this useless dongsaeng of yours. "

"Hongbin... that's not what I mean.. "

"That's exactly what you meant."Hongbin retaliates. "When I was sick last time,  never once you came to check up on me. You left me to die. Maybe I would be dead now if it's not for the hyungs. "He finally let out the things he has always wanted to say. 

"Then when I was sick, did you came to check up on me? "

'Have you ever cared? '

'Have you ever feel concerned for me even just once? '
