IN HOSPITAL WAITING ROOM:

Five individuals pacing back and forth. 

Suho: We all know you are worried but can you stop pacing.  it is making the rest of us more anxious.

Kai: Sorry Hyung...

Lay: you five should go out and get some air. 

D.O: take Sehun with you too. 

JM: yes hyung.

Jimin goes to where Sehun is.

JM: Hunnie hyung let's go outside.

Sehun: ...

JM: *shakes Sehun*

Sehun: huh? Jimin...

JM: Hyung are you okay. Let's go get some air.

Sehun: ...

The group leaves to the roof

In the cafe.

Xiumin: Is it just me or does Sehun look like an empty shell after finding Jimin and Taemin...

Suho: yeah.

DO: ...

Lay: even though he's not as close to Taemin as kai. they are both maknaes and around the same age.

Chen: Leader what did it look like when you got Jinki?

Suho: there was so much blood...

Baekhyun: BTS seems to have collectively pale faces when they arrived at the dorm.

Chanyeol: They seem to split up right away: Yoongi going to Taemin's room, jin and Nam Joon went straight for the balcony, and Taehyung went to Minho. Leaving just Jungkook and Hoseok with us. 

D.O: Jungkook looked lost...

Lay: Hoseok was silent after asking wher Key was...


Conference room:

RM: Yoongi what did you see?

Y: ...

Taehyung: earth to hyung...

Y: sorry... (jin: are you alright) it was like the time Jimin hurt himself after reading the hate comments.

Jin: oh geez.

 Jungkook: hopefully none of us have to see our friends go through losing a group member.

j-Hope: yeah

Taehyung: we better not hide anything from each other anymore.

Jin: you got that right.

RM: that means you too YOONGI!

Y: I will try to be more open.

SW: What next?

SH: We were talking. Kai overheard us.

K; The 3 of us went back to the practice room where Taemin and Jimin practiced and saw Taemin crying. Minho later showed up to take Tae home.

JM: I followed them to Shinee's dorm.

SH: Kai and I went back to our dorm. it was around 9 and we haven't seen Jimin back yet so Exo went to SHINee's dorm

K: we arrived there and Taemin was screaming.

R & TI: Why?

JM: he overheard the conversation I was having with his hyungs and he felt self-conscious.

SW: So he thought he would feel better if he inflicted pain to himself?

SH: no stay with me awhile.

waiting room:

Doc: you are all here for Taemin.

All: yes

Doc: he stable now. whoever treated the wound on site and kept him conscious should be proud. if you had not done what you did he would not have survived.

JM: yes he is.

K: Taemin is stable.

JM: SM town really needs to talk with each other more or else this will be a reoccurring situation.

SH: yea. I know you are hiding something Jongin tell us now.

K: I have depression and I have attempted suicide. I was overwhelmed by all the expectations. I could not enjoy dancing.  I felt trapped. 

SH: who else knows?

K: Taemin and Onew

Sehun breaks down.

Kai rushes to his maknae.

Jimin leaves to give them privacy

YG: Chimchim what's wrong...

JM:.....

RM: Tell us. we promised to not keeps secrets from each other.

Jimin: okay hyung.

They head to the conference room.

O: Kai told you too.

K: Where are Moongyu, Jimin, and Jinki?

Lay: They outside.

R & SW: We're coming too...

K: Let's go


They meet on the roof.

K: Timeteo, Ravi, Sungwoon you guys sit down first before I tell you what I have to say.

The trio does as instructed. Jimin and Jinki stand behind Kai. Kai takes a deep breath.

K: I have depression and I have attempted suicide. I was overwhelmed by all the expectations. I could not enjoy dancing.  I felt trapped.

TI: How long have you felt like this?

K: Since EXO won Alum of the Year for the first time. I was always the first to release a teaser for any new music video. I was named the center. I was expected to be perfect. All that pressure got to me and I just lost sight of why I love dancing. Taemin saw right through my facade. He told me to talk to my manager and SM himself. I did tell my manager but I backed out of telling SM because of the fear of possibly being forced to leave EXO.

Ravi: No one in EXO knows.

K: no

Sungwoon: Why? But you told Sehun.

K: I was afraid if they found out they would treat me differently. Sehun asked me to tell the truth since he knew I was hiding something. Please keep this between us. I just need more time to figure out how to tell my hyungs.

The trio nods. They return to the waiting room.

Suho: Jimin and Kai, Taemin is asking for you.

Kai & Jimin: OK hyung.


 Taemin's Hospital Room:

 K: Hey Taem

JM: Minnie hyung how are you feeling?

T: I have been better.

K: Don't dare to scare us like this again

T: I will try.

JM: Taemin Hyung, please talk to the other Shinee Hyungs. You're never alone and will never be a burden to those that care about you.

T: I know. I am sorry that I cause everyone to worry. I was hurting so much.

K: Min-ah it's okay. Do you want to see your group mates?

T: yes

The duo leaves to get SHINee.

K: Hyungs can we go somewhere private to talk?

S: What's wrong?

K: ... 

Lay: There a conference room across the hall.

 Exo goes to the  conference room

Xiumin: Can you tell us now.

K: You all should sit down first.

They all sit

Kyungsoo: Please tell us...

K: I have depression and I have attempted suicide. I was overwhelmed by all the expectations. I could not enjoy dancing. I felt trapped.  It started after EXO won Alum of the Year for the first time. I was always the first to release a teaser for any new music video. I was named the center. I was expected to be perfect. All that pressure got to me and I just lost sight of why I love dancing. Taemin saw right through my facade. He told me to talk to my manager and SM himself. I did tell my manager but I backed out of telling SM because of the fear of possibly being forced to leave EXO.

Lay: wow.

Baekhyun: WHAT!

Chanyeol: Huh?

Chen: Why did you not tell us sooner?

K: I was afraid you all would treat me differently.

S: Why would we? 

Lay: You are our brother we love you no matter what.]

K: Thank you.
