— 3rd

It's been a few weeks since the boys came back from their vacation.
And Tae has gone back to being his depressed self.
The boys are so alarmed at his behaviour.
They are so worried.

But they can't worry today as they have some business to attend.
But this schedule does not involve Tae.
So another schedule without Tae.

_______________

Sitting on the bed.
Back against the headrest.
With Tae on his lap sleeping.

"Why are you doing this Tae?" Yoongi whispers to himself in a sad tone.

A stray tears leaks out of his eye and drips down onto Tae's cheek.
Tae feels it and flutters his eyes open.
He touches his cheek and feels wetness.
He looks up at Yoongi and sees Yoongi crying.
Tae sit up and crawls onto Yoongi's lap.

"Why are you crying hyung?" Tae asks softly as he wipes his tears away.

"You Tae. Because of you. We promised each other that we would tell everything. But you Tae, I know you are hiding something from me. I can feel it. You've been starving yourself. I've never seen you genuinely happy smile for a long time now. And I miss that. I miss your happy self. Your happy, precious, cute self. And I want that Tae back." Yoongi sniffs as tears flow down Tae's eyes.

Yoongi moves Tae off his lap and stands up.

"Right now I have stuff to do. I'll always be here for you Tae. And I would do anything for you. But I just wish that you would. Don't you know that I love you so much? With all my being? I can't stand seeing you like this. I just feel like breaking down and dying because you're sad." Yoongi says softly and Tae looks down.

"I love you too." Tae whispers softly.

Yoongi sighs and kisses Tae's forehead and walks out the door leaving Tae in the bedroom with a face full of tears and guilt eating him. His heart breaking at everything Yoongi had just said.

Suddenly the doorbell rings indicating that they had mail.
Tae gulps knowing that it's from Sang Hong.
He walks down and gets the letter.

Walking towards the couch with a heavy heart.
He tears open the envelope and takes out the piece of paper.
As he reads the paper, he cries, cries so much that he almost couldn't breathe.

He cries himself to sleep.

Tae sleeps for a few hours.
He wakes up and the memories of the letters some back to his mind.
He tears up and starts sobbing.
His heart if scared and hurt by all the cruel words aimed at him.

Suddenly the front door open revealing the members talking and laughing.

The stop as soon as they heart Tae sobbing.
Yoongi's eyes widen and he scurries over and engulfs Tae in a hug.
The rest of the boys quickly rush over and surround the crying boy.
Tae sobs into Yoongi's shoulder.

"What's wrong baby?" Yoongi asks softly.

Tae shakes his head and back away from Yoongi and the rest of the boys.

"Tae? What's wrong?" Yoongi repeats his question, but with a little hint of hurt.

"Y-you'll j-just le-leave me." Tae sobs harder.

"What do you mean Tae?" Yoongi tries to go closer to Tae.

"N-no hyung." Tae shouts and curls up into a ball and cries into his knees.

Tears spill out from Yoongi's eyes seeing Tae like that.
A crying mess.
Hurt. Sorrow. Sadness surrounding him.

Soon, Tae falls asleep.
Again, while crying.
