15 : Unsure and Insecure

Jaehyun’s POV

I heard Mingyu got into a fight because of my sister yesterday, so now he’s benched. Actually, I have no regrets on doing that to Chaeyeon and Mingyu. I used to just dislike Mingyu because he was friends with my girlfriend (Yuna, at that time, not to mention that I hated Seokmin and Minghao then, too.) But later on, after learning about certain circumstances, I found that I had a reason to dislike him, after all.

His father, as we all know, is running for Congress. But before that, he’s the CEO of Kiosk. They used to hire our gang for their dirty work. They’re multi-billionaires, we’re poor. It’s not rocket science. And I don’t want any of me or my siblings dealing with them whether romantically or anything. Yuju and I didn’t break up because I lied. It was our mutual understanding that we’d want to be unassociated to each other, all for the sake of one another.

Speaking of, Yuju’s in the same lecture as me, right now. She doesn’t take notes, but rather, she’s on her phone. What could be up? Ever since this morning, (since we take most of our classes together) she’s been furiously typing on her phone.

“Are you mad about something?” I asked her as she looked up to meet my eyes. “Professor Glass doesn’t mind texting in class but my seatmate is texting in class, and I mind that.”

She heaved a heavy sigh. “Seokmin’s shifting programs next term. He’s dropping Econ for Political Science.” I can hear her frustrations, really. It’s so loud.

“I think it’s fine, I guess? Econ is in humanities so he should be fine.”

“It would be easy if he isn’t double-degree-ing Econ with Music. But well, it’s his life and his parents so why not?”

I raised a brow. “His parents?”

“You know how his parents are prosecution people? Yeah, they want Seokmin to take the same road.” She groaned and rolled her eyes as she closed her phone in annoyance. “We should’ve gone to Julliard.” This time, though, she’s the one who raised a brow on me. “You.” She shot me a sharp glare. “You’re the one who sent that text to Mingyu, right? The breakup text.”

Breakup text?

Ah, that text?

“I didn’t, but I told her to break up with him. She sent that on her own.” I crossed my arms. “Really, Yuna, we should avoid having my people meeting with yours. It’s as if our association with each other isn’t bad enough.”

She nodded. “I’m ensuring these days that none of the CLYDE children are meeting any of your Thunder Fang kids.” CLYDE, their parents’ association for the rich. Minghao, Seokmin and Mingyu’s parents are members together with Jihyo, Jung Sewoon and Kang Kyungwon’s families. I heard that the latter three just joined last year and they announced it on CLYDE’s Annua
