Arc I Arc II

Once again, Donghae carried Kyuhyun slowly up the stairs to his room. Sungmin grabbed their bags before following. Sungmin pulled the blanket off Kyuhyun’s bed, wondering slightly where the blanket he gave and the elephant was. It was always around at the hospital. Donghae gently place Kyuhyun down on the bed, giving him a kiss on the forehead as he did. Sungmin pulled the blanket up, tucking Kyuhyun in. Kyuhyun yawned again.

“Elephant?”

Sungmin and Donghae both smiled at that request. It was unusual to see Kyuhyun so child-like, although it was probably due to the pain medicine. But they wanted to see more of this side of Kyuhyun. Sungmin spotted the bag from the previous time and took out the elephant from it. Kyuhyun took it from Sungmin and buried it in his chest.

“Thank you Hyung. You’re the best.” Kyuhyun’s soft voice whispered before he fell asleep.

Happiness blossomed in their hearts. It was the first time Kyuhyun had said that to them. Perhaps it was the first step towards healing. They watched as Kyuhyun’s breathing slowed and stabilised. Donghae smoothed Kyuhyun’s hair, comforted by the fact that Kyuhyun was sleeping with a contented smile on his face.

“Shall we go? It’s getting late.” Sungmin said, although he wanted to stay. However, they both had things scheduled tomorrow. Donghae nodded reluctantly. He reached into his bag and took out the album. Pulling out a piece of paper from his bag, he wrote a note and placed it on top of the album which he left on the desk. Sungmin did the same with the box Mrs Kang gave him. It was after all meant for Kyuhyun, not matter how much he disliked the brother. Donghae tilted his head at the box with Sungmin mouthing the words “Not here”. They took one last look at Kyuhyun before leaving the room.

Donghae asked Sungmin what the box was on their way home. Seeing that Donghae had witnessed the incident with the brother - who still made Sungmin mad, Sungmin told him about the visit to Jong Ki’s house.

Donghae stared at Sungmin with his mouth open, almost willing Sungmin to suddenly laugh and say that it was all a joke. But Sungmin only reached to close his mouth with a serious expression. Donghae slowly digested the information in his head. He could understand the brother’s reaction for looking for something to blame at the sudden loss. Donghae had felt the same when his father died. However, he did not leash out at anyone. He didn’t believe that he would feel better after doing that. It would only make more people hurt. Even though Donghae could understand the reaction, it did not mean that he empathised with it. He too wished that he could have thrown a punch at that idiotic guy.

“What I want to know is that if anyone was around to support him then.” Sungmin spoke up, deciding that Donghae had enough time to digest the information.

Donghae nodded. “I wonder if he told anyone about the incident. Anyone at all. ‘Cos his mother does not seem like one who would sit down and listen to him, especially considering what Mrs Kang said about her reaction.” Donghae found himself growing frustrated at the conditions Kyuhyun grew up in. Though many might have considered growing up in a well-to-do family a good thing, Donghae believed that growing up surrounded by love was the best thing that overrode any others.

Sungmin nodded at Donghae’s words.

Suddenly Donghae remembered something.

“Hankyung-hyung knows. Ask him.”

It was something Kyuhyun had said when they were in the hospital after the horrifying episode.

“Hankyung-hyung might know something. Kyuhyun had said something about Hannie knowing something after the episode.”

Sungmin turned and looked at Donghae. There was no need to describe what happened. The narration of the incident was still fresh on his mind.

“We’ll ask him later today.”

“Oh. And bring Kibum into the conversation as well.”

“Bummie?”

“He was the first one I saw when I came home from Mrs Kang’s home.”

Donghae understood without Sungmin speaking. He understood the need to say it to someone after learning about such news. Donghae thought for a while.

“Are we going to tell anyone?”

“About?”

“About Jong Ki. About the incident just now.”

Sungmin shrugged. He didn’t know as well. But he could imagine the chaos the dorm would be in if they learned about Jong Ki’s brother.

“Let’s talk to Hannie and decide later tonight. I don’t want to face Teukie-Umma’s wrath if he was to find out about it.” Donghae concluded.

They fell silent after that.

As they walked towards the building of their dormitory, Sungmin turned to Donghae wanting to say something. But the words flew out of his head when he saw the tears flowing down Donghae’s face.

“Hae? What’s wrong?”

Sungmin stopped Donghae in his steps, gently turning Donghae to face him.

Donghae looked up from the ground, sniffing a little.

“Hae?”

Donghae took one step forward and hugged Sungmin. He hid his face into Sungmin’s hair.

“Why did such things happen to Kyuhyun? How come we never knew about it? How come he could grow up so strong and independent? Why did he not tell us anything before? How could that idiot blame him? Why does he keep everything in his heart? Are we not to be trusted? Why?”

Donghae cried out, crying for the past that he could not change, crying for the silent suffering Kyuhyun had endured.

Sungmin could feel the tears stinging in his eyes as he gently patted Donghae on the back. He too didn’t know the answer to the questions. All he could do was to let Donghae cry out all his frustration and pain. They stood in the middle of the path for a while, just hugging each other.

Soon Donghae’s cries dwindled to sniffles.

“Here, here. Don’t cry anymore.” Sungmin wiped the tears off Donghae’s face.

“Smile. You look best when you smile. And I’m sure you’ll make Kyuhyun smile with yours.”

Donghae gave a small smile at Sungmin’s words, sending his gratitude through the smile. Sungmin raised out his hand. Donghae grabbed onto it.

And they both walk hand in hand towards the dormitory, determined to create a better future together for them all.
