MY BROTHER (NCT)
HOW IS YOUR LIFE STORY 2?

"Well, now it's my turn to tell the story." Heechan smiled, he released his embrace from Chenle .

"So, I was actually born out of an affair." Heechan still kept smiling, he did not even hesitate to return the gaze of his friends who looked compassionately at him.

"Not to mention I tell you my life story, you feel sorry for it. Well, I'm so moved." Heechan spoke in a powerful voice that made his friends feel amused and not so pity, Heechan was really a mood booster in the group.

"Udah just continue your life story, lazy to hear you kepedean like gini."

Heechan, starting to stop smiling, "From the death of my birth mother to giving birth to me, Papa and his first wife came back and I was taken care of by Mama. But, it seems like mama still can't accept my presence and hates me so much. And every time they're done fighting, Papa doesn't usually come home for a few days and Mama always vents her frustration at me." Heechan unbuttoned his school uniform and revealed his entire body which had twelve blistered skin like it had been doused by boiling water.

"One example of this wound on my part of my body, I got it when I was 6 years old where Mama vented her anger on me when Papa planned to take me on a pilgrimage to Mama Kandku's grave, but somehow until this moment I could never hate Mama. I always felt guilty, though," Heechan said, scratching his itchy nose.

"You certainly know that in this world there will be no children who want to be born from the results of infidelity, but how else would you try? I never asked to be born that way, but I also could not deny the fact that I had to take on all the sins my mother had committed for all eternity. And my only hope until this second was just one, I just wanted to be embraced by Mama as her child not as the cheating son of a woman who ruined her household." Heechan was able to make all his friends silenced, no one else dared to hold his head up to look at Heechan at this time. They seemed to have never expected a hyperactive child like Heechan to have a gloomy and cramped life.

"I think how we can stop all this, I really don't want to make you tell stories just to meet my ego, because I understand I shouldn't have scratched a wound wider than the bitter memories you have. I don't want to be the villain who forced you to kill yourself" said Renjun, who was fed up and couldn't let his friends tell him stories, but it seems his opinion was not approved by Mark.

"It's okay, Run. It is precisely that we should be open to each other, I even feel relieved to have been frank with you. Is it not that the friend must always be there in joy or sorrow?" ask Mark who began to melt the gloomy atmosphere in the circle of friendship.

"Right, I agree the same thing Mark said. You don't have to feel guilty for us, Renjun." Heechan.

Then Mark patted Rejun on the shoulder, "Even I myself also come from a messy family like them, too, I have a father who loves to cheat and has never been absent in bringing another woman to spend the night in our house. Not only that, but I also have a mother who always tried to end her life because she could not bear the betrayal of my father, he said, that's why I'm so much permission for you guys because I have to try to hold my mom to not kill myself."

"Why not try to separate? Pity your mother and you have to put up with a father who behaves badly like that" Jisung said.

"I really wanted to, but my mother always refused because she loved my father so much and she also did not want to let me be a broken home."

Jeno who begins to understand what happened to Mark's life begins to feel guilty, "I'm sorry it was so bad to think of you at that time."

Then Jeno glanced at Jaemin to take turns telling stories, Jaemin initially hesitated enough to be straightforward so he immediately looked back at Renjun.

"It's okay, you can trust them like you trust me." A slight smile made Jaemin begin to brush off his feelings about his personal life problems.

"I... All this time I was just a doll born to realize all the dreams of my parents, I felt very depressed because I was forced to be the perfect child in the eyes of everyone. Sometimes I curse my life with a delusion that feels very torturous. Where almost every time I always wondered, why did my sister have to be a failure? If only my sister could be the perfect child, I definitely wouldn't have to be the outlet of my parents. But the truth is, my brother failed to fulfill their dreams and had to be hospitalized for several years. And I could catch up with my brother later, if I didn't know Renjun and you guys in my life." Renjun began to cry, then he looked down at Jeno.

"In fact, I should be willing to stop hanging out with Jeno and have been lonely for the past year for not having time to make friends other than to study." Renjun let out a long sigh and gave a signal not to resume his outpouring of heart.

"And today Jaemin Hyung had to swallow disappointment, because aunt and Om felt ashamed of Jaemin just because Jaemin Hyung got a B in sports lessons. Original anyway, it feels really sick to see the excessive behavior of Om and Aunt like that." Jisung smiled sickly when he remembered the face of his uncle and aunt, he felt full of anger when he saw his two cousins had to experience a painful life like this.

"That's it, Jisung." Jaemin immediately stopped Jisung, he did not want to tell anything more at this time plus he also did not want to vilify his parents in front of his friends.

Meanwhile, Jeno who began to know the reason behind Jaemin's attitude to him can only feel pity.

"The bottom line is, I'm really sorry to Jeno. I didn't mean to stay away from you or excommunicate you at that time" said Jaemin, who felt very guilty with a sincere apology.

"It's okay, I'm just glad you never hated me this whole time." Jeno and Jaemin smile at each other or each other, there seems to be nothing more they need to hide from each other even though there is a little awkward feeling for them to return to familiarity as before.

"Then, what about you, Jisung?" heechan asked who was immediately given a dumbfounded look by Jisung. He immediately shook his head when he saw all eyes on him.

"I don't have any outpouring of heart, thank goodness I come from a family that's fine."

"Really?" heechan asked suspiciously who was answered by repeated nods from Jisung to make everyone who was there laugh amusedly see the faith of a Jisung.

"Alright then, we can hand it all back to Renjun." Heechan landed his gaze on Renjun which made Jisung smile with relief, it seemed like he was not used to being in the circle of friends of the seniors. Moreover, he felt pity and unease when he said rudely to these seniors who had lives not as lucky as him.
