I stared at Donghwa in silence, feeling in disbelief at how he was right now. In just a few days of not seeing him, his appearance was that devastated. I never expected that Donghwa would be even worse than I ever thought when he lost something.
Silent for a few moments, I stepped onto the bed where he wrapped the blanket around his body. How pathetic.
I sat beside him, lifting my chin to stare at the ceiling of this bedroom before trying to comfort him by words.
"Hey, Donghwa, it's been a while since we had fun with the others. They're all looking for you. What about we have dinner together tomorrow? I'll tell them if you agree. What do you think? You've thought too much of something lately. Leave that for a moment and try to relax."
I turned to him, patted him on the shoulder as I continued to persuade him, "Hey, man, I'm lonely. If you don't want to go with them, what about me? What about we go to the entertainment centers?"
"Not interested."
