The smoke still swirled in the sky, the fires spreading like greedy claws, taking everything. HaHa wanted to run, wanted to follow Hayi home. But he’d given her a spare key instead, making sure she was safe to go.
He couldn’t leave without making sure Jongkook hyung was fine. He was terrified, but he just couldn’t run. He had to be brave. He had to keep breathing, keep walking. He waited until Hayi was out of sight and dropped the illusion of being Eunhye, knowing Jongkook woud be looking for his actual appearance. And he could use all the concentration he had.
Just breathe, just breathe.
What if he was already too late? His hyung was a hired for protection after all, what if he got hurt? What if they had figured he was at the wrong side and attacked him? But no, no, that’s impossible, his hyung was invincible, he was stronger and better and smarter than anyone else in the whole world, he would be fine. He had to be. He had to be. HaHa couldn’t make it without him.
He carefully hid behind anything he could find, pressing himself tightly against walls to scan the corners. When the coast was clear, or seemed clear, he quickly sprinted out, taking shelter behind something else.
Just breathe, just breathe.
He could do this. He would find his hyung and then he’d be safe. Everything would be fine. Everything would be fine.
Just breathe.
Slowly, but surely, he scanned the area, spotting a familiar figure in the distance. Was it his hyung?
He looked at the figure, concentrating. It was a familiar feeling, like coming home, that washed over him as the telepathic link set in.
I’m here hyung! he projected a small text balloon that only Jongkook would be able to see, and then a small red arrow pointing at the wall he was hiding behind.
