Chapter 36

Friendly Competition

 

 

Yoseob left the set early, he had promised to go visit Kikwang.

“Yoseob-ah, you’re back?”

Yoseob nodded.

“I have nothing better to do. I mean it, I had a schedule but someone decided to blow it off. I’m now…wandering around with nothing to do.”

Kikwang just stared at him.

“Seriously? Yah, don’t you have a girlfriend?”

“Yeah…but she’s unavailable at the moment. I miss us being able to talk." The older boy sighed.

"Nado. Ah, it’s a good thing you came now.”

“Wae?”

“I’m going to be discharged soon.”

Yoseob smirked.

“So, they managed to clean out the bad stuff from your body?”

“Yeah, they got out the seafood and I’m…”

“Oh, I didn’t mean the seafood. I meant, the babo-ness.”

Kikwang narrowed his eyes at him.

“Yah.”

“Don’t you narrow your eyes at me, Kiki! Even if you did, I couldn’t tell.”

“Leave my eyes alone!”

“Mian.” Yoseob chuckled. “I bought you some ice cream, by the way. Want some?” Yoseob asked holding up a plastic bag.

“Ice cream?”

“Yes, Mister Health freak. It’s fat free frozen yogurt! Aigoo.”

“I wanted sugar though! I’ve been in this hospital room with horrible gray colored food! Give me some sugary desserts.”

Yoseob grinned, pulling the bowl out of the bag.

“I lied. It’s pure sugary goodness!~” he said placing it on the table with two spoons. “Aye…did you think that I, Yang Yoseob, would have fat free desserts? Who do you think I am? What is ice cream without sugar?! That’s the whole point! Eat up!”

They dug into the tub of ice cream and talked for a while.

“I miss us talking like this.” Kikwang said.

“Nado, I really miss this.” Yoseob said feeding him a few bites.

The doctor walked in to do another checkup.

“How is the patient feeling?” Dr. Ahn asked.

“I’m feeling much better.”

Yoseob nodded.

“Mhm…it was the ice cream. Ice cream helps everything. It’s magic.”

Kikwang just shook his head at him and smiled.

“Shut up.”

Changin smiled.

“Your friendly, playful, bickering reminds me of my brother and his best friend. Have you met him?”

Yoseob nodded.

“We’ve met.”

“I’m so sorry….” Changin sighed.

‘Wait…what?’ Yoseob thought. ‘He’s sorry…hahaha.’

“Kikwang-ssi, I just need you to fill out these papers before we can discharge you.”

Kikwang nodded and did everything that he needed to do.

“Yoseob-ah?” Kikwang said changing out of his hospital gown. "Did my Umma bring clothes?"

"Yeah, I'm not interested in staring at your for another second."

"YAH! No one told you to look.”

“It’s looking at ME! Not MY fault.”

“Hmm…maybe ______ likes it."

"Nope...she's not even looking. You're just a blurry blob with an eye-smile." Yoseob said with a confident smile.

"I bet." Kikwang smirked. "What is it?"

"What do you mean?"

"I mean what's bugging you?"

“Who said something is bugging me?! I’m VERY happy!”

Kikwang just stared at him.

“You brought the biggest tub of ice cream and we finished it. You’re like a girl! You eat away your problems. What is it?”

Yoseob sighed.

“Aish, quit reading me!”

“I can’t help it. I’ve known you forever. What is it? Stop stalling.”

“It’s…Lee Jieun..."

Kikwang rolled his eyes and shook his head.

"AISH...ARE YOU KIDDING ME?! Why her? Why is she the problem? Get over her! You won ______!"

"PSH!" Yoseob scoffed. "I AM over her! She's the one with the one-sided crush this time. Lee Jieun likes me, not the other way around."

"DUH! I could've told you that!"

"She confessed to me."

"Your feelings aren't wavering, are they?"

Yoseob smiled.

"No way! I already made it clear to Jieun that I’m in a relationship! She heard me. As for my feelings wavering….PSH! You wish."

"I do." Kikwang nodded. "I really do. Sadly, I already told her that I support her decision in choosing you."

"Aww..." Yoseob said pulling him into a hug. "It means a lot."

"I can't change her choice."

"So...you're giving up?" Yoseob asked.

Kikwang shrugged.

"For now. If you hurt her, I won't give her to you so easily."

"Yah."

"Yoo ______ doesn't feel the same about me, as she does about you. According to Ricky, she did like us both, but she liked you more."

"How is that possible?"

"I understand how it's possible." Kikwang smiled.

"Mwo?"

"I've known you for years. I know the kind of person you are. You deserve to be with her. You deserve happiness as much as anyone else."

He pulled him into another hug.

"Okay then." ______'s voice came from behind. "What is this situation, I just happened upon? I'm sensing a little bromantic moment. Should I turn around and come back later?"

“______-ssi, when did you get here?” Kikwang gasped, hoping she didn’t hear their conversation about Jieun.

“Just now. All I saw was the hug. Aigoo, did I interrupt boy talk?”

"Yah...what are you doing here?" Yoseob asked.

"Yoseobie, we came from the same place."

"Oh right...”

______ saw the empty ice cream tub on the table.

"Aigoo, did you have an ice cream date without me? You ate the whole thing?"

Kikwang pointed to Yoseob.

"Him."

"Me?" Yoseob raised his brows and pointed to himself.

"Yeah, it was him."

"It was not! You probably ate 51 percent of it. I had 49! It's showing, see?" Yoseob said patting Kikwang's stomach. "You look pregnant."

______ smiled.

Dr. Ahn came back in.

"Yah!" Kikwang growled pulling him into a head lock.

"Hey, no more injuries. I know this is a hospital but were running out of empty bed space." Changin chuckled. "______-ah, did you happen to lose something in the hall?"

"Nah, he's yours now. I had him all day."

"I had him this morning!"

"He had him for five minutes." ______ said pointing to Yoseob.

“Huh? Oh…You mean, Jaehyo-ssi?”

Changin sighed.

"Again, I am so sorry. I’ll be right back, and you’ll be free to go.”

He smiled and walked out again.

“You like to pick on Jaehyo-ssi.”

“Of course.” ______ said. “That’s how our friendship is. We have a love-hate friendship with a lot of teasing. Aah, like you two.”

“Us two?” Kikwang chuckled.

“What about us two?”

“ I will go down with this ship though." she teased.

"YAH! Don't you ship anyone else?" Yoseob asked.

"Ani."

"Why do you ship us?"

"That way, I felt like I didn’t have to choose between the two of you." she giggled. "It was a selfish thing."

Yoseob gasped dramatically.

"Omo."

"What?"

"You're being selfish?! Someone alert the authorities!! OUT OF CHARACTER SITUATION!"

______ glared at him.

"Yah...."

"How are you being selfish again?" Kikwang asked. He was confused just thinking about it.

Yoseob made a face.

"I figured, if you were together, I could have both."

Kikwang grinned and wrapped his arms around Yoseob.

"Come here, Baby!~~ Ppoppo!!~"

Yoseob whined and shoved him away.

"Geumanhae!~"

"Aww~ Just come here!"

"YUCK! You smell like a hospital, Babo.” Yoseob grumbled. He pushed him to the bathroom mirror. “Go make out with yourself, I'm taken."

"I could always dress you like a girl."

"BACK OFF."

"Don't fight it, Yoseobie. Don't fight it. Just embrace my love for you."

Yoseob side-eyed him.

“Did your friend’s Hyung double up his medication?” he asked his girlfriend.

"Yoseobie, just accept his love."

"Oh I accept it."

"MANSE!! I get to be in the wedding, right?"

"You can be my maid of honor."

"Awww...I wanted to be the flower girl...or ring bearer!!!"

"You can."

"Andwae. Save it!" Yoseob said. "I will not share my girlfriend with you."

"Like I said, if you hurt her..." Kikwang warned showing his muscles.

Yoseob sighed and thought about it for a moment.

He should be honest with his girlfriend.

If he kept the Jieun issue a secret, she’d be hurt.

"Um...well....I have something to say." He spoke up, ready to spill his guts.

"MWO? What is it?" ______ replied with a smile.

Her smile made him nervous.

He didn’t want the smile to go away.

He wasn’t cheating…but still.

"Y-Y-You really want to know?" he stammered.

Kikwang rolled his eyes and went to finish getting ready to leave.

______ shrugged.

"That depends…Will it make me happy or angry?"

"Probably the latter." He frowned.

The last thing he wanted was for her smile to go away.

Especially, now that she was happy about him and Kikwang reconciling, he wanted to keep it that way.

"Then don't tell me right now. I'm in a good mood."

Kikwang gave her his best eye-smile.

"______-ssi, Are you going to help Yoseobie me home?" he asked.

"Yeah, you keep trying to kiss him. I'm going to get jealous. No one is allowed to kiss my Yoseobie." She warned. “Even if you just try and fail, I’m not going to forgive you.”

'AISH!!!! Um…..' Yoseob blushed. He chimed in. "Didn’t Jaehyo-ssi tell you I'm not interested in my guy friends romantically?"

"Didn’t I tell you to not listen to a word that freak says?"

"He's interesting."

"He's really not."

The three left the room and said goodbye to the doctor.

Jaehyo was helping out Changin to recover some files on the computer.

“So, what did you think of our ______ie’s new boyfriend?”

Jaehyo just stared at his Hyung.

“Waeyo?”

“He’s nice, right?”

“Mhm. I’m glad she’s happy. She doesn’t need to feel lonely. He’s a nice guy too, so it’s a plus.”

“Aren’t you jealous that your first love upgraded to the newer, better, version?”

“Hyung…” he whined. “What are you talking about?”

“I know that you dated, don’t lie to me. You can’t lie to me. I see right through you.”

“Aish…we dated forever ago. There are no more romantic feelings.”

“I’m just messing with you.”

“……”

“Well, he really is a sweet guy. She does look really happy.”

Jaehyo smiled.

“She is happy. Also, Changhyunnie is happy. You know that if Yoo Changhyun wasn’t happy, that would be a deal breaker.”

“Always.”

“DONE!” Jaehyo exclaimed, placing his palms on the table.

“I knew there was a reason I kept you around!” Changin said patting his head.

“HYUNG, the hair.” Jaehyo grumbled fixing it up.

“You can go home now, Whiny Diva.”

“Psh, I only came to ______.” The younger brother said. He looked at the door to see ______ and the guys coming out. He smiled. “Well, I see that you’re fine. I can go. Annyeonghaseyo Yoseob Hyung!”

He bowed respectfully to Yoseob, who in return, bowed back.

“Annyeonghaseyo.”

“We’ll see you tomorrow.” ______ giggled.

“One second.” Jaehyo said pulling her aside.

“What? what is it?”

He whispered in her ear earning a smack.

“OW! All I did was sing, ‘______ and Yoseob sittin-‘”

“GEUMNAHAE!” she growled, her cheeks super red.

Jaehyo smirked and walked off waving to everyone.

“What did he say?”

“Nothing. Never listen to a thing that Babo says.”

Changin just chuckled.

“Best advice ever. Unless he’s fixing your electronics, the rest is nonsense. I get away with teasing him because I’m his Hyung and he wouldn’t dare to disrespect me.”

“True friends tease each other. True best friends, get to mine and Jaehyo’s level.”

“Those two are about there.” Changin whispered, motioning to KiSeob.

______ smiled.

“I’m glad.” She said.

"Also, you got Jaehyo's approval, on that new boyfriend of yours."

"I know." she giggled. "Not that I need his approval. It's nice to know that my best friend approves though. Just as long as he doesn't talk to him, I'll be fine." she said going over to the KiSeob. “So, you’re both my boyfriend’s for the evening!”

Yoseob’s jaw dropped.

He raised his hand.

“Uh…I never agreed to that.”

“I, on the other hand, have no problem with that.” Kikwang chuckled.

“Where are we going on our date?” She asked.

“Still not agreeing to it.”

“Too bad.” Kikwang said. “You get her tomorrow.”

“We’re both working tomorrow though….” Yoseob pouted.

“Tough…”

“FINE, but come tomorrow, you’ll be…FOREVER ALONE!” Yoseob exclaimed.
