"There you are" he says finding himself sitting beside Sicheng on the bench. Out in the dorm building rooftop.

"Penny for your thoughts" he says seeing the younger doesn't have the plan to talk to him.

"Just thinking things" the male curtly said.

"Could I know? He says trying not sound prying off.

The younger sighed heavily as he gazes at the one to none visible stars in the night sky.

"I know you've heard" Ten starts. Planning to probe on the younger. He knows that Sicheng have heard the news he wouldn't be here all alone in this cold night out in the rooftop just to think things.

He knows they're not that close like Kun and the youngers relationship. But Kun isn't here. He's with their other members. Trying to gave Sicheng a space to breath. Which is the other way around with what he's doing.

He's not like them. He's different and he knows it. And that's what makes him unique. He knows the younger trust him. And he also trust Sicheng as he knows his deepest secret.

An emotional and sensitive boy is now seen. Crying his heart out. Not caring who will heard him cry as his loud sobs echoes throughout the rooftop. Pain and anguish mixing through

Ten hugs the younger. Letting him cry on his shoulders.

"Let it all out" he says Sichengs hair. He knows the younger has a lot to cry on. Starting from the time he was withdrawn from the group he was into. And to this news.
