MY BROTHER (NCT)
LONG TIME NO SEE 2

"You sure, Njun? I don't need to give it," bargained Winwin who was immediately rejected by his sister.

"Never mind, Hyung. Anyway I know, if Hyung won't open in front of me. So, I went to give Hyung time to tell Hyung's friends.  Lagian Hyung also has the right to relax with them without worrying about me even a little, so take it easy." He smiled, then looked at his friends Winwin.

"Jagain Hyungku yes," he said, who immediately put on the mask back.

Winwin could only give in and let his sister disappear from his sight, because he knew enough that Renjun could take care of himself.

Meanwhile, Renjun who seemed excited down the school environment, just happened to be at that time the school atmosphere was very crowded with a crowd of guardians and students and teachers. So, the presence of Renjun there is absolutely no one who realizes the slightest and if anyone happens to cross paths with Renjun must not immediately be able to recognize him because of the status of Runjun who is a new student at the school.

But still, Renjun carefully surrounds the school environment while lowering his head down the existing school area. Occasionally he glanced towards the building that was very quiet, related indeed the teacher's office on the first floor and most teachers had also finished dividing the report into a second floor building until the upper building was empty.

"Is it possible at the school?" muttered Renjun who immediately turned towards the school garden. Just as he expected, he was finally able to meet Heechan who seemed to be sitting with a gloomy look on the school park bench while throwing his report into the trash. Clearly, Renjun was not happy with what Heechan did which was like he did not appreciate the value he had just obtained. A slightly irritated runjun immediately reprimanded Heechan while re-quoting the report with an unhappy face.

"Are you crazy? Not everyone can go to school, why are you throwing away your report?" asked Renjun who intended to lecture his friend, but it seemed that Heechan did not listen to what Renjun was saying. He was still too shocked at the sudden presence of Renjun in front of him so he unconsciously hugged tightly to Renjun spontaneously.

"We miss you, Bro." Heechan repeatedly said it to make Renjun smile happily, for him this is the first time he feels missed by a stranger who is referred to as a friend. Usually during this time Renjun is just a student who is isolated at school, a figure of illness whose presence is never seen in the slightest.

Renjun released Heechan's embrace, then he returned the report to the owner.

"What happened to you? What a bad grade, that's why you're sad like this." Renjun remove the mask, now Heechan can see clearly the pale face of a friend who had been missed.

"It's just a family thing, but I don't think it's the right time to tell you." Heechan could only smile and stare in disbelief at the figure of Renjun in front of him.  Until his admiration turned into a feeling of worry when he saw something different from the face of Renjun at this time compared to the last time he saw Renjun.

"Your face is very pale, you are also getting thinner now. Are you all right?" ask Heechan.

"I'm fine, you don't have to worry about me." Renjun still hid his health to his friend, who, Heechan actually does not believe it but he also does not want to force Renjun to be frank because for him it could be privacy that has not been able to convey Runjun to him.

"You're a bad liar, but yes if you don't want to be straight. So, where have you been all this time? Just so you know, we thought you didn't want to be friends with us anymore, so you decided to move to school and forget about us."

"I didn't change schools anyway, I'm sorry for making you think that." Renjun began to feel guilty while listening to Heechan's complaint.

But it seems like Renjun is hesitant to come clean, "There's a little family matter, but it's not the right time to tell you either."

"You are indeed the most annoying person," Heechan lamented while laughing amusedly, He was not in thought with Renjun who had just turned his words around when he was seriously asking such an important matter earlier.

"I just say what it is" said Renjun who also laughed.

"All you have to do, Njun. Oh yeah, let's take you to meet them!" take Heechan with the intention to invite Renjun to meet his other friends.

"I don't think I can walk free right now, so how about we gather on the rooftop?" haggar Renjun who remembered his current state, he could not roam freely at a time like this because he did not want one of the teachers or anyone who was aware of his presence and contacted his parents. He could no longer return to the hospital and lost his freedom, and he had to separate from Winwin.

"It could be, it's a really good idea. But is Renjun able to walk to the roof in this condition?" heechan asked who was very worried about Renjun's physical condition, but it seemed like Heechan's words just now made Renjun silenced long enough to make Heechan feel guilty himself.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to doubt you." Heechan patted Renjun on the shoulder a few times because he was so afraid that he was wrong to speak and made Renjun angry.

But it seems like Renjun is not angry at all, he even looks cheerful with a smile that never disappeared from his face when all this time he rarely smiled in front of his friends.

"Please, I'm strong enough to get on the roof of this building. You better hunt down our other friends, because I can't stay here long." Renjun patted Heechan's shoulder.

"It's good that I call them!" said Heechan who immediately ran away from Renjun, while Renjun also began to move up the stairs to the roof of the building calmly.

Fortunately during the trip to the roof of the building, he did not have any obstacles or obstacles. He even managed to get to the roof of the building in good condition. Until finally the endurance of his body began to decline and both legs felt numb, to make him fall limp in the doorway of the roof of the building.

"Can I fall here, what if I look like other friends?" asked Renjun in his heart while unable to hide the smile from the corner of his lips, he seemed to be laughing at his own very sad state.

But circumstances like this did not make him despair, he immediately tried to rise again with all his strength while holding tightly to the doorknob to help him stand. And with his strength left, he walked towards the middle of the roof with strides dragged because of his two legs that had been numb.

I don't know what's really going on with him at the moment, but he can guess that this is one of the many leukemia symptoms he's been suffering from so far. Although rare, but he does not want to take a headache or panic about something like this.

And once he made it to the middle of the roof, he immediately dropped to sit there while enjoying the hot sun that redeemed the skin. For a moment, he looked at those two pitiful-looking legs.
