i double updated today so please make sure u read the chapter before this firstas this loosely follows on <3
sliiight tw!! mentions of mental health disorders
JINAE
hey! just wanted to thank you
for the lift. i do appreciate
you going out of your way to
do me a favour
RENJUN
oh hi jinae
RENJUN
its alright. i dont mind
i was dropping haechan off
anyway
JINAE
ahahh idk why you do things
for him when u clearly don't
like him
RENJUN
i dont dislike him at all he's
probably my best friend its
just that we just kind of clash
RENJUN
he does annoy me but i
dont hate him its just that
sometimes i really can't stand
him
JINAE
ahh i get you!! im kinda like
that with my younger cousins
ahahh but they're too cute to
hate
RENJUN
haechans the same
RENJUN
well not too cute to hate
but there's no valid reason
to hate him
RENJUN
idk. its just our dynamic
JINAE
we've been friends a while
now and ive never asked
JINAE
i just kind of figured that
you just put up with him
RENJUN
no, i grew up with him.
you grow tired of him at times
JINAE
ahahh yeah he is a handful!
JINAE
anyway i just wanted to say
thanks
RENJUN
u dont have to just say
thanks and go
RENJUN
we're friends. ik you're
not as close with me and
you only became our
friend as you and chenle
used to date but im not
gonna bite you. haven't yet
have i?
JINAE
i mean you're not wrong!
JINAE
and pls let's not bring up
the chenle thing its kinda
awkward 😅😅
RENJUN
how? you two are still
good friends
RENJUN
and the gc didn't change
how they were with u at
all
JINAE
true but its kinda awkward!
JINAE
i love chenle don't get me
wrong but not in the
relationship way. never really
did and i still feel bad about it
JINAE
i just feel it was kinda
awkward in a sense.
me and chenles dynamic
has completely changed since
RENJUN
jinae im sure that he doesn't
think any less of you
RENJUN
its been 4 months since
u guys broke up. if he was gonna
be funny with you he would have
been. its a bit late for him to
start now and as for the others
they all love you. its so obvious
RENJUN
especially isla yoona and jisung
JINAE
yeahhh true
JINAE
im just glad i kept you guys as
friends i mean i met you all
6 months ago and i dont regret
it at all! you're all my best friends
JINAE
you know i really hope this person
me and jisung have been talking to
is up for joining the gc. ik it helped
me get through my issues
JINAE
which is still embarassing tbh
i really worried you all so
much i still feel like a fool
RENJUN
you got the help you
needed. you dont need to
be embarrassed
JINAE
me too. my therapist
really helps and i just really wish i
could help this person
RENJUN
yeah i know. they're all glad
you're doing better
RENJUN
especially chenle
JINAE

RENJUN
