The first few replies were exactly what I expected.
["Good job."] Ki-hoon wrote.
["That's my boy."] Jin-Yeok added. ["But don't get too carried away."]
["Hyung will definitely put them in their place."] Min-Cheol wrote.
I could almost hear their voices overlapping in my head as if they were saying the words directly to me.
I've been with them for so long that's why.
But then came the flood of longer messages, messages that I expected. They can't possibly praise me and then be done with it. Even knowing I was exposed to the tiniest bit of danger would rile them up.
["Are you hurt?"] Ki-hoon asked. ["Did they touch you at all?"]
["Where exactly was Seo-Jun when this was happening?"] Min-Cheol did not fail to show his hostility in this situation. ["Doesn't he know how dangerous the situation could've been? The least he could've done was be by your side."]
