Minho doesn’t push Jisung any further that day—but that doesn’t mean he’s letting it go.
Jisung is hiding something. And Minho isn’t stupid. The way he flinched at that message, the way he literally fainted the other day… it’s bad. Really bad.
So Minho does what he does best—he investigates.
A Private Conversation with Seungmin
After school, Minho finds Seungmin waiting outside his locker.
Seungmin
Seungmin raises an eyebrow. “You have that look on your face.”
Lee Know
Minho sighs. “What look?”
Seungmin
Seungmin smirks. “The ‘I’m about to commit a crime’ look.”
Lee Know
Minho rolls his eyes. “Shut up. I need your help.”
Seungmin
Seungmin crosses his arms. “What did Jisung do now?”
Lee Know
Minho’s jaw tightens. “It’s not what he did. It’s what’s happening to him.”
Seungmin
Seungmin’s teasing expression disappears instantly. “…What do you mean?”
Lee Know
Minho hesitates, then mutters, “Someone’s texting him. Someone from his past.”
Seungmin
Seungmin frowns. “And he won’t tell you who?”
Lee Know
Minho shakes his head. “No. But it’s messing him up. He passed out the other day, freaked out in PE today—”
Seungmin
Seungmin’s expression darkens. “That’s not normal.”
Lee Know
“Exactly.”
Seungmin
Seungmin exhales. “So… what’s your plan?”
Lee Know
Minho smirks slightly. “You’re going to help me figure out who it is.”
Seungmin
Seungmin scoffs. “Why am I always your accomplice?”
Lee Know
Minho pats his shoulder. “Because you’re good at it.”
Seungmin
Seungmin rolls his eyes but doesn’t say no. He’s in.
