He hid his demons, unable to share his worries, pushing everyone close to him away.

    His demons ate and him and tore him down, making him want it all to end.

   Tw: Attempted suicide

~

    "You're on in three." The stage director said.

   The male let out a breath, the sweat from performing making his clothes stick to his skin (even though they were fresh clothes.

  "You got this Han... Only a few more songs left..." He said to himself.

    The stylist fixed the Jisungs hair and clothes.

    He was performing his song 'wish you back' next, so luckily he would simply be sitting in a stool near the front of the stage, giving his feet a break from dancing.

   "I got this..." He muttered, putting a smile on his face then head to the platform to go on stage.

  It was a rush for him to be performing in front of so many people, but is also made him scared. Thoughts he didn't like raced through his head.

   His heart pounded hard against his chest.

    To perform in front of over sixteen thousand people was nerve wracking, but he loved it.

    What felt like all too soon the 3 hour set ended and Jisung had said goodbye to his beloved fans.

   "You did good out there Ji." His best friend/manager said.

  "Thanks Mi."

   "When do we leave for Japan?" Misoo asked.

  "Tomorrow at ten."

    Misoo nodded and threw a towel at the younger.

   "What do you want to do now?" She asked.

     Jisung hummed pulling shirt off and using the towel to dry his chest.

   "I think I am going to go on a walk... I need some time to think and unwind." Jisung muttered.

  "Do you want security?"

  "No, just wanna be by myself..."

  "Alright, you go ahead and do that call me when you want to go to your house."

  Jisung nodded and collected his stuff. Putting his mask and cap on he pulled out a pack of cigarettes and tapped the bottom of it a couple times, then opened it.

  Pulling a stick out he lit it and took a drag.
  
    It probably wasn't the best idea for him to be smoking given that he was an idol and in public, but right now he didn't necessarily care.

     He was maybe 3 metres away when he saw someone standing on the edge of a brigde with a very high drop.

   He doesn't think he had ever moved so fast.

   The cigarette between fingers dropped to the ground as he rushed over.

   He was able to get to the male before anything bad happened.

  "What the hell!?" The brunet exclaimed at Jisung.
 
    "What the hell me? What the hell were you doing, you could have gotten hurt!" Jisung stated.

  "That's the point dipshit." The male huffed crossing his arms.

   Jisung sighed and ran a hand through his hair.

     "My name is Jisung." Jisung introduced himself.

   The other male clicked his tongue and rolled his eyes.

   "Minho..." He muttered.

    Jisung nodded feeling a little awkward.

  "I... I'm sorry for snapping at you... I just..."

  "I understand... Uh, I've kind of been here before in uh the same way..." Jisung told him

   "Oh... How did you uhm get over it? If you don't mind me asking."

   Jisung pursed his lips.

  "Well I couldn't really tell you. I was only here a few days ago..." Jisung said with a small chuckle, trying to make light of his situation.

   "Oh..." Minho seemed to soften.

   "Do you want to get a coffee? There is a café around the corner, I know the uhm owners, Lee Felix and Hwang Hyunjin." Jisung said.

    Minho contemplated for a moment, but nodded.

   The two walked for a little. It was a small cat café that looked almost ouy of place, but cute nonetheless.

   Jisung opened the door allowing Minho to enter first.

   "Uh, what do you want to drink or uh eat?" Jisung asked.

  "I'll just have what you are having..." Minho muttered
   
   Jisung nodded and went up to the counter, leaving Minho by himself.

    Minho probably wouldn't admit it out loud, at least probably not any time soon- but he felt grateful maybe that Jisung found him when he did.

   It hadn't been the first time he had went out to that bridge to do exactly what he wanted to do tonight. The other times were different, he stopped himself before he did anything. Tonight he was ready to just do it.

   He snapped from his thoughts when a drink was placed in front of him.

     "It's Oolong tea... It is supposed to help you relax." Jisung said.

  Minho nodded and took a careful sip of the hot tea.

  A white cat jumped up on Jisungs lap and settled itself down.

   "Hi, moon..." Jisung said softly.

   "You know the cats name?"

  Jisung nodded, even though he was wearing a mask Minho could still see the younger smiling.

   "This one is Moon and the orange one over there is her partner Sun. Sun, she is a little more quiet compared to Moon. Moon loves to go up to people. A couple people have tried to adopt Moon, but they stopped once they realised they would have to take Sun as well. So now the two aren't up for adoption... At least until the right people come along." Jisung explained.

    "Have you thought of adopting them? You seem very close to them." Minho mentioned.

  "I have, but I have a very busy schedule most of the time, so I can't, rather I just visit whenever I can."

   Minho nodded.

  "You said you know the owners..."

  "Ah, yes I do. Hyunjin is my older brother, his parents adopted me when I was three or four. Felix was the sweet boy across the street that Hyunjin was absolutely in love with. They are together now. I was here when they opened the place up. What about you?" Jisung answered.

    "There isn't really much to know about me... My name is Lee Minho. I'm twenty-four and I graduated college and I'm starting my first tomorrow." Minho shrugged.

  "What type of job?"

  "Kindergarten teacher."

  "Ah, that is so cute, hyung!" Jisung giggled. 

   "How old are you?" Minho questioned.

  "Twenty-two." Jisung answered.

  Minho hummed.

  "Eh... I have to go... I have a flight tomorrow..." Jisung muttered, looking at his phone.

  "Wait, uh... Can I have your Instagram?" Minho asked.

   Jisung hummed, then grabbed a tissue from the dispenser. Searching his pockets he found a pen then wrote something on the paper.

  "Here."

   Minho looked at the tissue and smiled slightly.

    Han.quokka
<3 don't worry about paying, I already did. Hope 2 see you soon Lee Minho~ssi

   Folding the paper he looked up to see the male gone.

   Leaving the cute establishment he took note of the café name.

  Fate café

   Ah, I'll be sure to visit here again.
