Seven
Arranged MarriageKogyeol had just finished showering. He was about to start reading when he heard a buzz from his phone. With a baby blue towel draped over his hair and his bathrobe, he picked up his phone from his bed. He expected it to be Kuhn; it was an unknown number. “How, again, did anyone get my number?” he sighed. Nevertheless, he opened his messages and read them.
Hi, it’s Wooshin. If you’re not busy, wanna hang out tomorrow? Sent at 7:00
Kogyeol stared at it. Would Kuhn get mad if he hung out with another boy? He shook his head. “It’s just his brother, what’s the harm?”

A few seconds later, another text popped out.

He put on his glasses, took his adventure-fantasy novel again and flipped to the page he was on. Just when he was about to read, his phone lets out a ringtone, signaling an incoming call.
“Oh, who is it now?” he groaned. He didn’t bother checking the id and put the phone to his ear.

“It’s fine. Do you need anything?”
“If you’re up for it, wanna go out again tomorrow?”
“Oh, your brother just asked me to hang out with him tomorrow. Can-”
“Wooshin?!” Kuhn asked sharply, startling Kogyeol. He sounded angry and Kogyeol gulped nervously.
“Y-yes. You have a problem with that?” He suddenly became scared.
“Don’t hang out with him, Kogyeol.” The brunette frowned.
“Why?”
“Just don’t!”
“You can’t tell me what to do!”
“Kogyeol, he’s gonna-”
“Listen, Kuhn. He’s your ing brot
