Jisung:“can you tell me where I can find Kim seungmin's room?”

The first thing that Jisung did once his feet stepped into the hospital was going straight to the receptionist and asking for his Friend's room.

“yes, wait a minute sir”

She said,  typing the name on the computer and playing with the mouse and clicking on the last 48 hours updates.

At the same time, another boy walked past the hospital lobby and he recognized Jisung so walked towards him.

“Jisung-hyung?”

The outcast turned around to his left just to find Jeongin holding two cups of water.

Jisung was glad he found someone familiar.

“sir, the patient Kim Seungmin resides in 143 rooms on the third floor”

Jisung thanked the receptionist for her efforts and walked towards Jeongin holding the two cups for him and told him to guide him towards Seungmin's room.

Jeongin:“I thought you were going to spend the rest of the day with Minho-hyung”

He said for Jisung to smile at him.

Jisung:“Felix called me and i dropped everything to check on Seungmin...he is my friend as well and Minho was cool with letting me go”

Jeongin knows about the phone call since he was the one to tell Felix to call Jisung and see if the outcast would come or not.

Seungmin was actually happy that Jisung actually got worried about him even though he didn't show it to the others but Jeongin knows his best friend very well.

Jeongin:"and why didn't he come?"

He asked, not seeing Minho around.

Once they arrived at the room that the numbers "143" were displayed in black color on the door, Jisung turned his head towards Jeongin and signed with his head for him to open the door since his hands were occupied.

Jisung:“he is with another person who needs him more than me”

Jeongin was confused on what Jisung meant by that after he twisted the doorknob.

The outcast knows that Minho's roommate was just like him and Changbin and he wanted to give that chance to him since he knows how it feels to be around the person you love.

Just like how he is around Jeongin right now.

Felix:“JISUNG!! OMG!!! YOU ACTUALLY CAME!!!”

The model walked towards Jisung and gave him a hug despite him holding the water cups, Felix then took the cups from him and walked towards seungmin and gave him the cup since he was the one to tell them he was thirsty.

Seungmin:“why did you come?”

He said after gulping some sips of his water and looked towards the masked boy who was looking at him with a confused look.

Even if he knows that Jisung got worried about but that won't let him know that he did that just to get the chance to see Jeongin since the outcast has a crush on him.

Jisung:“what do you mean? I came to check on you...you're my friend and I didn't bring Minho with me because I know you guys are on bad terms”

He said walking towards Seungmin's bed who crossed his arms.

Seungmin:“you did a great job, I would be poisoned again if I saw his face”

He said for Jisung to chuckle glad that he didn't bring the older or these two would make a disaster if they reunite.

Jisung:“how did you get poisoned anyway?”

He finally got to ask the question that has been bothering him since he learned that he is being hospitalized.

Jeongin came putting his hand on his shoulder and took the opportunity to answer him instead of the patient.

Jeongin:“fried chicken drumstick”

He received a pillow from Seungmin who felt embarrassed being exposed and shouted at him for saying no more which caused Felix and Jisung to chuckle at their cute long-term friendship.

The two roommates sat at a table outside the cafe just after Chan came bringing the tray of their drink where he ordered a hot latte while Minho ordered iced coffee and once he arrived at their tables, he put the tray on top of the table.

Minho:“why should I spend my time with you?”

He said after he took a sip of his coffee while Chan was turning his spoon inside his latte after adding two cubes of sugar.

Chan:“do you hate it?”

He said before taking a sip from his hot latte, he looked at his roommate who was still wearing his grumpy face and suddenly his tough expression started getting relaxed.

Minho:“you're paying for the drinks so I don't hate it that much”

He said with a smirk taking another sip for Chan to roll his eyes and letting out a frustrated sigh.

Chan:“you make more money than I do”

He let out for the webtoon artist who crossed his arms not believing that Chan cared about the money.

Minho:“and you refused to take rent from me”

It was something that was bothering Minho since he started living with Chan and him not being able to pay the rent to him irritated and Minho understands that at first he was unemployed and couldn't offer it but now after he's making money and Chan still refuses to take money from him.

Chan:“because I don't want it...we know each other since high school and I know how much you hate having a tiring job like I do and like to stay at home, heck you even said you wanted to be a house-husband if you ever get married”

He felt sad that Minho still feels like he owes him something when Chan was okay with Minho living with him at his house.

Minho blushed hearing his roommate bringing up the house-husband thing long ago when they were still teenagers and he used to say to Chan just as a joke but the older remember it.

Minho(blushing):“you...why do you remember the smallest things about me?

He said with a low tone looking away while sipping into his straw, the crimson color was visible on his cheeks since the sunlight was hitting his face Making his brown hair shined against the reflected light.

Chan's eyes never left the webtoon artist as his gaze kept going from his eyes to his nose then down towards his lips, he couldn't but find himself admiring his roommate from up close forgetting about his latte that is cold by now.

Chan:“we have known each other for five years and we lived under the same roof for 3 years...of course I would remember, you're so precious to me Lino”

He said explaining his reason for the nth time, he doesn't know how much he should let Minho know that he wasn't bothering him by living at his house for free.

Minho(flustered):“I told you to not call me by that!!”

The producer just loves the webtoon artist so much and he was lucky that he gets to see him everyday, to have breakfast and dinner with him every day, and lucky to be called special from him.

Chan:“have someone ever told you that you look cute when you're angry”

He wasn't in control of his emotions which led him to let out what his said intentionally thinking he said it in his mind but it was loud enough for Minho to hear it which caused him to freeze.

Minho:“excuse me...”

Chan's eyes got wide as his cheeks turned rosy which caused him to realize that he said that out loud that resulted in  him panicking and getting up from the table.

Chan:“uhh uhm...I'm going to pay for the drinks”

He ran away leaving Minho there still processing what his roommate just said.

Minho:“who would be into someone who's angry...he's so weird”

He didn't know but he found himself smiling while saying that.
