Hao was tired and so was everyone. After the pre recording the boys just went straight to their room and took a shower. "Hao hyungg, I'll take the shower first" Hao looked over at hanbin, he's standing at the doorway of the bathroom in their shared room with that cute and innocent smile on his face that he couldn't help but return. "Sure Hanbinnie take your time, I'll just watch our fancams here hehe" hao said and raised his phone to show hanbin. "Okay hyung just call me if you need help." then entered the bathroom. Hao shook his head. "I'm not going anywhere binnie what do you mean by help haha" Before starting his fancam for their debut stage, hao rests his body on the carpet on the floor and sighed. After the long wait and pure years of hardship, he finally debuted. It still doesn't feel real and sometimes whenever he's performing he would ask himself, is this real? Am I dreaming but then the loud cheers and the faces of his members made it made sense to him. This is real. He made it. After all the sacrifices that he made. The decisions he made, was all worth it. Hao smiled at the realisation and sat upright. He remembered that today is the release of their new content zb1 folder. He wants to watch it with hanbin later so he went to Twitter to see zeroses reaction. Hao hope that they find their content funny and they had fun. But just as he opened his account he was welcomed with harsh comments and criticism. Hao didn't know how to react. He knows that he cannot please everyone and not everyone will like him. He experienced this before on boys planet. It was the hardest time of his trainee life. Being ridiculed for something you did and did not do. But this time it was about hanbin. Sung Hanbin who was his other half, his best friend and his lover. It has become their bonding, teasing each other about our viral clips, jiwoong hyung with his 'did I make you anxious' , Taerae with his Man in love gestures and switch dances, Gyuvin's famous ' I'm sorry I forgot' lines, Yujinnie's ' have I make you proud line and many more. It was a light hearted teasing and bonding with each other that made the member's relationship closer. But again this was hanbin. Reading the tweets he cannot help but ask did I really disrespect hanbin? His heart ached at the thought of the possibility that he had hurt his other half. He was overthinking and he was on the verge of breaking down when the door of the opened revealing a fresh hanbin wearing his pajama. Hao immediately teared up when he saw hanbin and asked " Binnie, did I hurt you when I copied your mother dance?" He didn't know why he was crying really, maybe because he was tired and saw what the fans are saying about him, maybe because he didn't like the thought of being the one to hurt hanbin. "Hyung what are you saying?" Hanbin immediately went to the sofa with him and held his shoulder making him face each other. His other hand drying his tears. "Why are you crying?" Hao didn't speak and just hugged hanbin. That's where hanbin take his phone and immediately saw what he was reading and as hao was hiding his face in the crook of his neck he didn't see how hanbin's face darkened. "Hyung, hyung, look at me hyung." He let go of their embrace. Hao sniffed and tried to stop his tears but seeing hanbin's worried face made him cry more. He was really sensitive now. "You didn't, hyung you know me more than them and you know I won't be mad about something like this. I like seeing you laugh and be happy. So please don't listen to this. And just care for me hmm?" Hao didn't talk and just hugged him again. Feeling Hanbin's warmth, he felt his mind and heart lightened. Only hanbin can make him feel this way. His hanbin who is his best friend, his other half and his safe place.
