[CONTENTID2]Let him go nuts for a while and never state a correct fact when he's saying like 'He’s almost like, what, our parent, isn’t he?! You can’t marry your parent!'[/CONTENTID2]

She comes home only to find 14 missed calls and 53 unread chats, all of those are courtesy of Wang-nosy-Jackson. She predicts his first call was when Saeho dropped the bomb (she already warned that not so adorable chubby oppa, but Jo Saeho needed to say what he needed to say).

Look at yourself. ARE YOU KIDDING?!

What has gotten into you?

Yah! HE IS OUR BROTHER, are you crazy?!

WHAT?! YOU HAD PRIVATE GROUP CHAT WITH HYUNGS?!

That’s the trigger—Youngji just knows it. She can even feel how hurt he is being excluded like that. He’s the most social person she ever met. He gets offended easily when someone unintentionally leaves him out of conversation, moreover when she intentionally keeps the secret of her private group. He’s more furious if that certain someone named Heo Youngji.

Clumsily, she picks up her phone when it rings again, in the middle of her steps toward the bathroom.

“Let me—“

“How can you do that to me?!”

Oppa is not our parent, more likely our miserable (but still undeniably handsome) sitter. But Youngji doesn’t say that loud. She knows Jackson isn’t finished yet.

“… that’s unfair! Dongwook hyung and Saeho hyung are closest to me, why wasn’t I included in your group chat?! Did you whine about me to hyungs there?!”

His tone is colorful like baby’s first time talking full sentence. And Youngji is amazed at how he always thinks her life revolves around him.

A minute or so later, Jackson finally realizes he’s been like a mad man talking to a dead phone. He clears his throat awkwardly and murmurs, “Are you sleeping?”

Youngji purposely exaggerates a yawn just to annoy him more. “Almost.”

“Well, why did I bother to—“

“Let me explain now, Wang Jackson.”

The line becomes silent instantly. To be honest, Youngji hates to go logical with him because that will be tiring (a
