"Aren't we going back to the dorm?", Jinyoung asks his parent when their car moves to opposite direction from his dorm.
Jinyoung is lying with the seat slightly reclined. His back is still sore and his head is pounding, just like what the doctor said.
"Oh Mr Park didn't tell you?", Jinyoung's mom says, "we are going to go to a house that Mr Park has prepared".
"JYP hyung? a house?"
"Yes, mr Park said he already prepared a house in Gangnam area, you should use it temporarily during your treatment so you can have more privacy and so that people in your dorm don't get worried or asking too many questions. Mr Park also said  because it would be best to take treatment here in Seoul, if we have a place for our own, it would be easier for both of us to stay and take care of you".
"What about my stuff?", Jinyoung confused.
"It has been taken care of", Jinyoung's father calms him down.
"Mr Park is truly a wonderful person", Jinyoung's mom smiles, "he really cares for you. He said not to worry about anything. Just focus on your health and he would take care of the rest".
Jinyoung is speechless. He's already shocked that JYP hyung knew about his illness already, but giving him facilities is a whole different level which he doesn't expect coming from his CEO.
The house that JYP prepared is not far from the dorm and it's closer to Samsung Medical Center, it's the hospital where Jinyoung is going to receive treatment. When they arrive at the house, Jinyoung knows that the house is probably one of the property that his boss owns. It's simple yet classy. The fence is tall, like other houses in Gangnam area. It's designed so that people inside can not be seen from outside. Like other houses in Gangnam, this small house maybe worth hundreds of millions. Jinyoung tries to block his mind from overthinking. In normal situation, he would definitely says no to whatever JYP offers. But he knows, saying no in this condition would only make him feels bad to JYP Hyung as the boss won't take a 'no' for anything. Besides, it's true what the boss said, with him having to receive treatments, he can't stay at the dorm without causing commotion. He certainly can't deal if people asking questions moreover his dongsaengs. It's easier this way.
Jinyoung gets out of the car supported by his father. His manager Ae Ri is seen in front of the house, seems like she already waited for them.
"Annyeong haseyo", Ae Ri greets them with her usual tone.
"Noona", Jinyoung greets him also, relieved finding a face he's familiar with.
Ae Ri bows to Jinyoung parent and tells them she has organized their belonging and that all of their necessities is already been prepared.
"Jinyoung-ah, lets get you inside, you must be tired", Ae Ri escorts them to enter the house.
"Wow, what a wonderful house..", Jinyoung's mom gasps in awe when they enter the house. It's indeed beautiful. The garden outside is well groomed and clean, the house is also really clean with simple yet chic modern furniture. The living room is very comfortable. There are leather sofas and fireplace with television and small piano. A modern chandelier is attached to the ceiling. From the living room they can see dining room and the kitchen. The house is bright because there's a small semi open garden beside the dining room.
"Your room is here", Ae Ri shows them Jinyoung's room, "I already move some of your belongings here. Tell me if you need anything, I will ask the staff to get it for you".
Jinyoung says thank you and with the help of his father entering the room.
The room is definitely bigger than the one he has on dormitory. Not many furniture inside the room, only a bed, a dresser, a couch, bookshelf and a pot of plant. This room has a big window, Jinyoung can see the beautiful garden from here.
With the help of his father, Jinyoung lays down on the bed and feels thankful when his body touches the mattress. He instantly closes his eyes, enjoying the comfort of the soft sheet and the smell of it. He feels sick from the smell of disinfectant from the hospital.
"You lay down a bit, Jinyoung-ah", Ae Ri says, "I'm going to show aunty and uncle where their room is and I will bring you a glass of water, okay".
Jinyoung can't thank his manager enough. They have been working together since JJ project, Ae Ri is like his own noona. Indeed she can be harsh sometimes, but she's just like a mom to GOT7 and she really takes care of them well.
Jinyoung lays down, looking at the ceiling. He still doesn't understand what has he done to have a privilege like this from JYP hyung. He also feels sad because he realize he only entitled this because he is sick.
Jinyoung reaches his cellphone to dial his boss.
"Yeoboseyo", the boss answers his call immediately after the phone rings.
"Yeoboseyo hyung"
"Jinyoung ah, have you arrived at the house?", the boss asks.
"De... Hyung, I...", Jinyoung tries to say something but surprisingly he can't think of any words.
"Don't think too much", the CEO says, reading Jinyoung's mind, "as exchange, promise me that you will fight hard, receive the treatment and get well soon. You hear me?".
Jinyoung's eyes are blurry from the tears, "I understand, hyung. I will do my best. Thank you very much".
"That's my junior.. Rest well, Jinyoung-ah. You tell me if you need anything okay, hyung will get anything you want".
When Jinyoung ends the call, several messages come in to his Line account. Mark, JB, Jackson and Youngjae are asking about his condition. They already know that Jinyoung is moving and can't wait to see the new house. Yugyeom and Bambam haven't say anything since their last meeting, but Jinyoung can understand because the two maknaes are sometimes hard to express their feelings.
Hmmm... this bed is really comfortable.. For a second, Jinyoung forgets about how sore his body is and his pounding headache. He takes a deep breath, smelling the freshness of the sheet. Jinyoung closes his eyes, and in no time he already falls in deep sleep.
Jinyoung doesn't know how long he's sleeping, but when he opens his eyes, it's already dark.  His body is still sore but better. His headache is still hovering, but he thinks he can manage.  Mom wakes him up to tell him that he has to take dinner. Jinyoung slowly lifts his body, his mom props the pillow to support him and arrange his dinner on a tray. Jinyoung feels a bit awkward because he hasn't been so dependent to his parent for a long time. He insists to have dinner in dining room but the mom says no because doctor said he has to stay in bed for at least 24 hours. Sighing, Jinyoung obey his mother's order and begins to eat. 
As predicted, Jinyoung doesn't have any appetite at all. The ginseng soup his mom made him tastes very good, but Jinyoung's a bit nauseaus, he's afraid that his stomach might revolt. He eats very slowly.
In the middle of eating, Jinyoung's phone ringing, it's Yugyeom. Feeling the importancy of the maknae's call, Jinyoung picks it up almost immediately.
"Yugyeom ah?".
"Hyung...", Yugyeom's voice cracked. It makes Jinyoung remember the days before their debut Yugyeom was always calling Jinyoung whenever he needed someone to cry on.
"Where are you, Gyeom ah?", Jinyoung's motherly instinct kicks in. He know Yugyeom is very shocked and he's worried the youngest one would do stupid things.
"Can... can I come in?".
Jinyoung informs his mother that Yugyeom is probably standing outside of the house for a while and asks her to fetch him up.
Yugyeom comes into Jinyoung's room, his face is bloated, his eyes are red.
"Illuwa, Yugyeomie", Jinyoung calls him to sit beside him. Jinyoung tries to sit upright but his mom forbids him.
"Stay there Jinyoung ah, don't put pressure on your back".
Jinyoung nods, he gives signal to the maknae to sit on the bed.
Yugyeom heart breaks seeing how frail Jinyoung is. He looks pale and tiny in that king sized bed. Usually, it's Jinyoung who takes care of everyone in GOT7. He's the one who makes sure everyone eats on time and would smother them if anyone falls sick. Seeing him in opposite situation is just so heartbreaking for Yugyeom.
Yugyeom tears falls uncontrollaby by the time he gets closer to Jinyoung. He hugs Jinyoung and cry on his chest. Jinyoung stares blankly at the wall, stroking Yugyeom's hair. He has cried a lot these past few days, his energy is drained from crying. He surpresses his emotion in front of the youngest one knowing that he's the hyung and he's suppose to be the strong one.
"I'm going to be alright, Gyeom ah.. doctor said it's curable okay.. I'm going to get treatments and I'll be back for you, for the fans", Jinyoung keeps murmuring those words. He's trying to calm Yugyeom down, but actually he's saying those words for himself.
"Hyuuung....", Yugyeom sulks.
Jinyoung smiles, he sees the giant maknae is acting like he used to do, it's nostalgic.
"Wae?", Jinyoung keeps stroking his hair lovingly, "I'm not going anywhere".
Yugyeom keeps on hugging Jinyoung long after he stops crying.
"I'm scared", Yugyeom whispers.
"Don't be", Jinyoung assures him, "You have hyung's word. I will fight and make a comeback with you guys. I don't know how long this will take, but I'm going to get better".
Yugyeom gets up, Jinyoung can see sadness is still lingering the youngest member's face.
"Gyeom ah, Hyung will not give up, so you can't give up on me, okay. You can't give up on GOT7. Our fans are waiting, they're very important. I know it's scary, I'm scared too. i don't know where this will lead. But we gotta have faith, okay Gyeom ah?".
Yugyeom nods.
Ah, Jinyoung hyung is always know how to make him feels better.
"You have to promise me, hyung", Yugyeom looks straight to Jinyoungs eyes.
The older man smiles, "trust me, Gyeom ah".
Jinyoung has to admitt, after feeling weak and helpless these past few days, it's good to feel like he's in control of something. He can be very dependent with the hyung lines, but when it comes to maknaes line, he knows he has to keep his composure and not to let his youngest down. It gives him more strength.
"Your hands are cold, Gyeom ah, did you stand in front of the house for a long time".
"For about an hour", the youngest replies.
"Yah, you fool", Jinyoung scolds him, "outside is cold. It's almost winter. How could you stand outside in such a long time? What if you get sick?".
Yugyeom smirks, he likes it when his hyung is scolding him.
"Yah, I'm angry. Why do you put a weird smile like that?", Jinyoung continues scolding his maknae.
"Have you eaten yet?", he asks. Yugyeom shakes his head. He hasn't eat since noon amd he begins to feel hungry. He feels hungrier when his hyung mentions about it.
"You little....", Jinyoung rambles, "I'm going to get crazy because of you. I swear everytime I see you, I get grey hair. I'm the one who's sick here. Why are you being the one who's so weak? Go to the kitchen, my mom is making ginseng soup. You bring it here, I want you to eat in front of me!" .
The giant maknae make a pouty face but obeys his hyung. He comes back to the room bringing a big bowl of rice and soup. Jinyoung gives him the sharpest glare, the younger man shrugs.
He starts eating and realize that he's really starving. Jinyoung sees the younger man eating greedily from his bowl. It makes his stomach churns a little but he manages to hold up. He smiles seeing the younger one eating happily.
"What do I do with you, Gyeomie. If I'm not around, how do you live by yourself", Jinyoung says to his dongsaeng.
Yugyeom once said that Jinyoung is a type of person who can live by himself, while he's a type of person who rellies on someone else.
Jinyoung sighs. He's so grateful to still have a reason to fight. Not only for his members, but also for the fans. He's very hapoy Yugyeom came and give hom a visit. He is afraid, but he has to fight for everyone who's rooting for him. No matter how painful it will be, he has to be ready. Jinyoung promises himself he won't give up and he'll get better.
"Gomawo, dongsaeng!", he whispers to Yugyeom, but the younger one is too occupied with his meal he probably doesn't hear ehat his hyung says.
