@fmdhaejun!
they were currently attending one of his favorite variety shows; hello counselor. there was just something that he enjoyed about going on the show and giving advice. it probably had to do with that one of the archetypes he fell into was the caregiver; one who gives care, love, is saintly, and many other things that can describe such an archetype. he just really liked helping those who needed help. even if some things may seem silly to others watch the show; they were general concerns that people had that they needed help with. it was as simple as that, duri was ready to give advice in any way that he possibly could.
throughout the show, there was one thing that had stuck with him. it sat in the back of his head for the reminder of the show; it was haejun’s rather short response to the topic of cheating. of course, haejun was completely correct with what he said; but that’s not why it had sat in duri’s mind. it was the way the words sounded, the look in haejun’s eyes... why was that? he wasn’t entirely sure, but he, nonetheless, continued to participate in the show with that in the back of his mind. comments of how sweet and caring duri was towards situations throughout the show; as well as the bear hugs he’d give to the guest that was upset.
once the show was finally over, he was walking along; thinking about saying something to haejun. but, he wasn’t entirely sure if he should. was it right? was it his place? he wasn’t entirely sure, but it was that caregiver archetype that was sitting in the back of his mind; maybe even a little bit of the innocent archetype that he held as well. but seemingly, when he was walking next to haejun, he couldn’t help but to ask. “haejun, are you doing okay?”
