MY BROTHER (NCT)
TRUE HOME

"Maybe this comic can overcome your boredom during the hospital," said Winwin who gave a flat look to his sister.

"Used comics?" ask Renjun.

"I can still remember that you usually like to read all the comics or novels I've read, so I thought these comics could help you while I was here. But if your habits have changed, you'll throw the comic away later!" tukas Winwin who makes Renjun smile.

"I haven't read comics in a long time, but I'm aware that Hyung's memory is only tied to our childhood memories." Renjun received a comic given by Winwin which he immediately placed under his pillow.

"Later tonight I will read it" Renjun said.

"OK," concluded Winwin who intends to leave, but his name is called by Renjun.

"Young, I have something to talk about. I'm really sorry about yesterday's problems and all my bad attitude towards you, I shouldn't have to vent all my anger on you." Rejun lowered his head, he usually always looked down when really feeling guilty and sometimes his attitude that makes Winwin often melt in an instant.

Winwin rubbed Renjun's head with a smile, he slightly muttered softly but clearly his mutter could be heard at a glance by Renjun who was just pretending not to hear.

"You are indeed my spoiled little brother," murmured Winwin softly, before Winwin finally pulled his hand back from the head of Renjun.

"By the way, why are you alone here? Where are your parents?" ask Winwin.

"They'll be back here any minute" replied Renjun who was also not too interested in discussing his parents before Winwin.

Winwin merely nodded in response without saying anything.

"What else do you want to ask me? There ain't?" tanya Renjun who was answered by Winwin.

Renjun sighed, "Tomorrow I will undergo chemotherapy, I beg you to come tomorrow huh!" lirih Renjun who was thoughtlessly replied to agree by Winwin, it seems he had been used to listening to the word chemotherapy so he was not too surprised if listening to his sister would be chemotherapy.

"I don't want my arrival to be in vain, so I hope you will have to be strong when you undergo chemotherapy later!" firmly Winwin who was more impressed forced, Renjun who was already happy immediately agreed without ever imagining how it would be if Winwin disbelieved and gave greater disappointment as before.

Renjun has now put hope that he and winwin will rebuild the rope of brotherhood as before, tightly and inseparable. Maybe this is the only hope possessed by Renjun to survive against the malignancy of his leukemia, but what if later that hope turned into the ashes of extinction? Whether Renjun can still survive on the verge of disappointment or he begins to succumb to the plot of the destiny that slowly erodes his age.

"You don't have to worry, Hyung. I'm not your weak sister now," concluded Renjun who is very confident, Winwin just smiled unconsciously made.

And at the same time, the voice of Renjun's phone rang again but suddenly Renjun ignored the call.

Obviously Winwin became curious, "Who?"

"Call from my friends" he answered.

"Then, why not lift? Any doubts in your heart or you're ashamed to be blunt if you're sick?" ask Winwin again which question directly pierces to the heart.

"You're right, Hyung. Besides being embarrassed, I was also afraid of being a burden to them or they could even isolate me who was sick. I was confused to be happy to have a friend or" Renjun stopped, he glanced at Winwin who gave a disapproving look at him.

"You're wrong, you're like a weakling who's afraid to take any risks." Winwin immediately grabbed Renjun's phone and answered the call, he walked a little away from Renjun who was sitting on the bed.

They spoke looking relaxed, Renjun who could not listen to the call until made curious what his brother was talking about at this time with his friend. Maybe he could listen at a glance how Winwin called Heechan and Jaemin names several times, the rest he could only think and hope that his friends did not pity him after this.

"What are you talking about?" ask Renjun.

"Nothing, I just told them to come see you today and they agreed to come later tonight."

"You're saying I'm sick?" ask Renjun.

"Leukemia mean? Obviously I didn't say anything, it's your right to say the same to them and I have no business being your spokesperson!" Winwin hit his sister's head slowly, Renjun could only throw his face and grumbled annoyed.

"You shouldn't have to advise me, Hyung! I just want to be pampered as a sister by you, instead of listening to your spicy nagging," said Renjun.

Winwin who listened to his complaints Renjun could only sigh, "You want to walk the afternoon with me now?"

"May," replied Renjun who looked very excited.

"Yes, I helped you stand up!" Winwin immediately helped Renjun stand up while stretching his information Rejun.

"But if you're getting tired, tell me yes! I can take you back here, "tell Winwin, who was nodding by Renjun.

"Slow down the road!" winwin's patient advice helped Renjun slowly step foot, he knew that Renjun's body was still limp but he also knew that his sister must be tired of being in this room all day.

"Hyung, don't help me walk because I can walk alone!" resolute Runjun who instantly put away Winwin's hand and snatched the infusion from Winwin's hand as well while showing his happy face.

"I need an older brother, not a nanny! So stop pitying me." Renjun patted slowly Winwin's shoulder, before he finally walked out of the room which was also followed by Winwin.

Then the two walked slowly around the corridor of the Hospital, there was not a single sentence that came out after that room other than the silence between the two and the focus of Renjun who was busy staring at the hustle and bustle of the hospital.

There were even several times Renjun reprimanded the greetings of other patients who for him had something in common with him.

"You know, Hyung. I think I'm starting to realize that they and I in this hospital have one thing in common that's very similar."

"What's that?" ask Winwin who tried to slow down his steps so that he could walk next to Renjun.

Rejun turned to Winwin on his left, "We are the ones who are both fighting to stay alive."

Winwin was stunned to hear that, he did not want to say anything other than letting Renjun keep talking at this time.

"Sometimes, I think what a house means for someone like me, but ever since I've been here and seen those who are here, I've come to understand that my real home is this Hospital." He smiled, but his eyes were watering.

"You're wrong again, maybe this hospital is your home but it's not a true home but a halfway house." Winwin strongly rejected Renjun's argument.

"Then, where's my true home?" ask Renjun.

"You've owned your true home all along, Njun. You already have," said Winwin.

"But the house wouldn't be perfect if there wasn't Hyung. The house still feels quiet, maybe because the house collapsed time yes because both of our parents." Renjun averted his gaze from Winwin while calming himself who was about to cry.
