I'm a Deaf Studies major this was gonna happen at some point. Also I am clueless about Korean Sign Language so for convenient purposes they'll be using American Sign Language. Huehue oops

Daehyun watched as the boy in the white cap waved his hands around, petite fingers twiddling and forming different shapes, his mouth moving as if he were speaking except no sound escaped past his cherry lips. When he put his hands down Daehyun looked to the taller boy sitting next to him: his younger brother.

“What’d he say?”

The tall boy rolled his eyes. “I’m not interested.”

“What, really? Why not?” He watched as Junhong relayed the message to his older brother, pinching all his fingers at his nose then turning his palm the opposite way and spreading the digits, then brought his hand up to his temple and flicked his middle finger down against his palm repeatedly. Don’t care why?

Youngjae started signing again, his facial expressions turning to ones of distaste. Again Junhong interpreted. “...because I’m not some prop for you to use. I have my pride.”

“But, like…” Daehyun ran a hand over his face. “you’d definitely gain popularity, yknow? Isn’t this what you wanted?”

Junhong visibly clenched his jaw, and some translation later he said through gritted teeth “I wouldn’t have become a fan if I knew you were such a prick. My mistake.” Youngjae stood up before Junhong even finished voicing, sending a disdainful look Daehyun’s way and gesturing for his brother to follow. The singer stood up as well but Junhong held up a hand. “I think you’ve said enough for today. Please don’t bother my older brother again...or me.” With that, the two students were skulking off in the opposite direction, leaving Daehyun alone to groan to himself as he retook his seat.

That was definitely the wrong approach, wasn’t it?
