Taehyung didn't really have to go. He actually does better when he doesn't sleep the night before a test. But Taehyung was on the verge of a mental breakdown.

We won't get into specifics, but Taehyung has separation anxiety and it would be fine if he knew his brother was on campus, but he knows he isn't.

His brother is the reason Taehyung went to this university specifically but guess what his smart brother did.

He got kicked out. So he's no longer going to this college and that's an issue because his anxiety is kicking up again and he doesn't know what to do about it.

Taehyung's phone starts ringing and he answers after checking the caller ID.

"Hello?"

"Hey baby. How are you doing?"

"Not good."

"Is it because of your brother?"

"Yes."

"Do you want to talk about it?"

"No."

"Do you want to talk to him?"

"No. Wait, yes."

"Okay, here he is."

"Hello?"

"Donghyuck."

"Hey, Tae."

"Don't hey Tae me. Now is not the time to be friendly."

"Tae, I'm sorry. I really didn't mean to."

"I know. But you could have stopped it."

"I know."

"Good. How is your life?"

"Okay. I got a job at that boba shop down the street. How are you holding up?"

"Not well but I'm going to tell a few of my friends what happened and maybe they can help."

"Do you want me to come visit this weekend?"

"No, I have plans."

"Oh. Do you want to talk to Mom again?"

"I guess."

"Hey, whatever you said really upset your brother."

"It was supposed to, Mom."

"Now Taehyung, you need to be nice to him. Donghyuck has his own set of problems."

"I know Mom, but he knew how important this was to me. He didn't even have to be around me all the time. Just being on campus made it okay."

"Baby, if I could change it, I would. But- oh jeez, nevermind. Tae, you need to get in the bed."

"Mom, it's only nine."

"That was not an option, boy."

"Yes ma'am."

"Goodnight, Tae."

"Goodnight, Mom."

Taehyung ended the call and began getting ready for bed. Tonight is going to be a long one.

Oh, by the way, welcome to Dionysus: the story of a bunch of drunk college kids.
