Select only one element using the css class

Select only one element using the css class

Example HTML structure:
  1.     <div class="status-header">
  2.         <div class="status-avatar">
  3.             @include('layouts.partials.avatar', ['user' => $status->user])
  4.         </div>
  5.         <div class="status-data">
  6.             <strong class="status-username">
  7.                 {{ link_to_route('profile_path', $status->user->username, $status->user->username) }}
  8.             </strong>
  9.             <div class="status-time">
  10.                 {{ $status->present()->timeSincePublished() }}
  11.             </div>
  12.         </div>
  13.     </div>
  14.     <div class="buttons status-buttons">
  15.         <button class="status-btn follow-btn" data-expand="#follow">
  16.             Follow
  17.         </button>
  18.         <button class="status-btn comment-btn" data-expand="#comment" id="comment">
  19.             Comment
  20.         </button>
  21.     </div>
  22.     <a class="comments-count" data-expand="" href="#">
  23.         {{ $status->present()->commentsCount() }}
  24.     </a>
  25.     <div class="comment-submit" >
  26.         {{ Form::open(['route' => ['comment_path', $status->id], 'class' => 'comments-submit-form']) }}
  27.         {{ Form::hidden('status_id', $status->id) }}
  28.         <span class="coll-handle" style="display: inline-block"></span>
  29.         <input name="body" class="comment-input" placeholder="Your comment goes here.">
  30.         {{ Form::close() }}
  31.     </div>
  32.     <p class="rec">
  33.         {{ $status->body }}
  34.     </p>
  35.     @if ($comments = $status->comments)
  36.     <div class="">
  37.             <div class="">
  38.                 @foreach ($comments as $comment)
  39.                     @include('statuses.partials.comment')
  40.                 @endforeach
  41.             </div>
  42.     </div>
  43.     @endif
This structure gets used for every status. How can I focus/select only the .comment-input of the status I click on .comment-btn? When I would insert the css class name, it would stop working when I have more than one status.

  1.     $('.comment-btn').click(function() {
  2.         setTimeout( function() {
  3.             $('').focus();
  4.         }, 1000);
  5.     });
