Chap6

Half Moon (Before Cross road)

Nichkhun was driving the car with a sleeping Wooyoung in the seat on one side with an overwhelmed mind.
They had gone to lunch with the superior of Wooyoung to know more about the person who would be the other half of Minjun.

 

"Hyung was always very popular with the girls at school, you know, because he's handsome. Until the day after his graduation they called him something like a legend"
 

Wooyoung explained and Seulong was a bit modest
 

"But he had his girlfriend, Han Hee, the most popular girl in school. It was like a drama"
 

Wooyoung continued
 

"Yes, although we broke up two days before graduation"
 

Seulong said drinking his iced coffee
 

"I know and they looked so good together"
 

The silence fell on them just for a while
 

"Don't you want to know why we broke up?"
 

Seulong asked Wooyoung with the deep gaze, a fact that Nichkhun couldn't ignore
 

"I'm sorry," Woo said. "I thought it would be uncomfortable."
 

"It's not, we broke because I fell in love with someone else"

Seulong said at last, and Nichkhun's heart quickened.
 

"Seriously?"
 

"Yes, I was so in love with that person that I could not see a girl anymore"
 

Wooyoung sipped from his straw and then looked at Seulong after a long time
 

"That's very romantic," he asked. "Who could that be?"
 

"You want to know?"
 

Seulong returned to the deep gaze on the boy who ate vanilla ice cream so Nichkhun had to interfere
 

"Wooyoung, you have to cleanse your face"
 

He said taking a napkin to wipe the rest of the ice cream on Wooyoung's lip as Seulong looked at him.
That look that Seulong had put on Wooyoung was so obvious to Nichkhun that he didn't understand how Wooyoung didn't notice and that made him more annoying.

 

"Hyung"


Wooyoung said taking Nichkhun out of his thoughts.
 

"Mmm?"
 

"M-My house is there"
 

Wooyoung pointed to the small blue house
 

"Oh I see"
 

Nichkhun stopped the car.
 

"Tell me, Wooyoung. Are you okay here? I mean, is something missing?"
 

Wooyoung smiled and shook his head.
 

"I miss your Thai food"
 

They both laughed wistfully
 

"I miss the vanilla ice cream in the evenings"
 

Nichkhun admitted.
 

"I miss to Hyung"
 

Wooyoung said in a low voice
 

"Me too"
 

"It's time to go, I have to go to school tomorrow"

Wooyoung was about to get out of the car when Nichkhun took his hand.
 

"Wooyoung, I..."
 

"I know hyung"
 

Nichkhun frowned
 

"I feel the same way, I promise I will make a hyung come back"
 

Wooyoung said with a smile
 

"N-No Woo, it's not about Minjun."
 

Nichkhun stated but Wooyoung released his own hand from the other.
 

"I have to go"
 

Wooyoung got out of the car.
~~~

 

"It looks like you had fun"
 

Taecyeon admitted as he watched Minjun spin around in the swivel chair
 

"You said you didn't want to know"
 

Minjun stopped, sighed, and sat down next to Taecyeon.
 

"I know and I don't want to know but you look very happy"
 

Taecyeon admitted
 

"What's your job?"
 

Minjun asked, moving his feet on the carpet.
 

"I'm head of an Editorial"
 

Taecyeon replied
 

"It's hard?"
 

Minjun continued to play with his feet
 

"Not much"
 

Suddenly Taecyeon was fiddling with his feet too
 

"I have the day off tomorrow"
 

Minjun nodded

"Tell me about Junho"
 

Minjun asked dragging the chair with his feet to the bed
 

"Why?"
 

"Curiosity"
 

Taecyeon frowned and sighed.
 

"What do you want to know?"
 

Minjun looked up
 

"Things like what do you like? His hobbies? That sort of thing"
 

Taecyeon lay back on the bed
 

"Well he, has a very friendly personality but is very quiet sometimes, is quite perceptive so it is not easy to cheat when we play. He started dating my younger brother some time ago but my brother is a genius kid who lives in libraries so they don't see each other very often..."
 

"Do you like Junho?"


Minjun asked suddenly and Taecyeon rose from a start.
 

"No, of course not. It's like my second younger brother. Why do you ask that?"
 

Minjun threw himself back in the chair
 

"Just curious, they seem very close"
 

Taecyeon crossed my legs
 

"It's because Junho is too careful with the people around him. It's like a mother sometimes but nothing like what you imagine. Now, I'm going to sleep, I have an appointment tomorrow; so you go sleep on the sofa."
 

Minjun sat on the bed and frowned.
 

"I also have an appointment tomorrow"
 

He said throwing himself to one side of Taecyeon
 

"What are you doing?"
 

Asked Taecyeon
 

"I'm not going to sleep on the couch so just look the other way."
 

Minjun complained
 

"Where will you go tomorrow?"

He asked a little out of curiosity and another for fear of falling asleep
 

"I have a couple of pending issues"
 

Minjun replied looking at the night lamp
 

"Do you remember anything?"
 

Taecyeon asked
 

"No, nothing. It's just something I have to do. Now go to sleep
 

Minjun said softly, and Taecyeon gave in a little while.

"Now listen, don't be afraid. I'm sure it's all a misunderstanding so just do as we practice."
 

Minjun told Chansung
 

"How can you be so sure?"
 

Chansung asked nervously
 

"I just know, now relax and go to sleep."
 

"I'm sorry, I don't think I'm capable of sleeping"
 

Chansung said a little sad
 

"Then I'll tell you something so you can have confidence. Junho thinks you're better than your brother"
 

"In what sense?"
 

Chansung asked doubtful
 

"Your body, he said that he had found something better in you."
 

Chansung blushed and his throat got dry so he had to cough
 

"W- well, I'll go to sleep."
 

Chan whisper and lie down.
 

"Minjun ... Can you stay here? Until i fall asleep"
 

Chansung asked and Minjun smiled
 

"Sure, so sleep now, I'll stay here."
 

The silence was present and Minjun promised not to let his plan fail.
 

The next day, when Taecyeon woke up, he stood very still in his place for a very long time until he turned and saw the empty space.
 

"Are you there?"
 

He asked very quietly but no one answered.
 

"What am I doing?"
 

He asked himself, banging his palm on his forehead. Why did he feel the need to see him? The word pending matter struck in his mind and he thought he should feel good for Minjun, then he could rest in peace; But why did he feel bad?
He sighed heavily and stared at the ceiling for a moment when he remembered his appointment this afternoon.

 

"I will not think about it, this is Nae Young Noona"
 

He told himself and began to prepare.
*-*-*-*

 

"I think it comes too early"
 

Chansung said to himself looking at the clock, half an hour earlier.
 

"Surely Junho..."
 

Chansung's words tightened in his throat when he saw the young man already at one of the tables at the back.
 

"This way Chan"
 

The hand of Junho rose among the diners
 

"You arrived early"
 

Chansung said taking the seat in front of Junho
 

"The same I say"

 Junho mocked and Chansung smiled, it was one of the things he loved Junho, his sarcastic humor
 

"It seems you couldn't sleep."
 

Chansung pointed out y Junho was startled.
 

"It's been so long since our last date..."
 

He said sincerely and Chansung took his hand on the table
 

"It seems like we've been through a bad time"
 

Admitted Chansung and Junho nodded
 

"But I still don't understand why"
 

At that moment the waiter came to take the order and when it was once again the silence.
 

"Junho, I'm sorry, I'm being clumsy"
 

Junho shook his head
 

"It's not like that, actually you're being very sweet."
 

He said with a half smile
 

"You're being too kind"
 

Chansung concealed his shame.
 

Junho's gaze was too much for Chansung, who was beginning to feel nervous even though he knew he had to do it; Minjun had repeated it all the time.
 

"Junho.... There's something I want to tell you"
 

He said suddenly and Junho stopped drinking his latte coffee
 

"For real?"
 

He ask with glassy eyes
 

"Junho you ... Do you still want me?"
 

Chansung asked, running his finger along the edge of the mug.
 

"Don't"
 

Junho responded by drinking his coffee after a long time and Chansung under his hand to the lap
 

"I think I told you before, Chan."


Junho continued after leaving the cup on the table with a little noise
 

"Junho"
 

"I don't want you anymore. Because I love you"
 

Chansung's eyes widened and Junho chuckled.
 

"Why do you make such jokes?"
 

Chansung asked with a bitter smile and Junho shrugged.
 

"You're the one who was being too gloomy. I just wanted to throw you in cold water, who the hell told you that to break have to give so many laps?"
 

Junho asked in half voice
 

"Who's talking about breaking up?"
 

Chansung asked with a frown and Junho looked up with tears on his face.
 

"Who the hell told you i wanted to break up?"

Chansung reached out and Junho's face, wiping away his tears.
 

"You"
 

Junho complained and Chansung sat beside him, putting his arm around his shoulders.
 

"I? When did I do that?"
 

Chansung asked almost laughing
 

"When you called me to meet here and asked if I still loved you."
 

Junho was justified and Chansung squeezed his hand
 

"I'm sorry, I think I did it wrong"
 

Chansung whispered to Junho chestnut hair and kissed his forehead
 

"Then why did you ask that?"
 

Junho his nose
 

"Junho...Do you like Taecyeon hyung?"
 

Chansung asked and Junho looked at him before laughing.
 

"Hyung? Really?"
 

Junho couldn't stop laughing
 

"What do you think is funny?"
 

Chansung asked with annoying gesture
 

"Well, first of all hyung of whom you are jealous. Secondly you have asked it that way and third that you think I like him"
 

Junho stopped laughing, wiping the tears that peeked out of the corners of his eyes.
 

"Don't be like that, I..."
 

"You're a great fool"
 

Junho put his hands on either side of Chansung's face and gave her a brief kiss.
 

"Do you think if I liked Taec Hyung I would do this?"
 

Junho kissed him again and Chansung shook his head.
 

"One more?"
 

Junho asked with arched eyebrows and again his lips crashed, smiling later when Chansung was stunned.
 

"Listen, I know I spent too much time with Hyung but I've never seen anything else in it."

Chansung had no more words, there was nothing more to say so he just concentrated on hugging the little boy beside him.
Minjun had been watching the scene from afar and smiled when they both looked happier; But he also felt sick to think that perhaps there was someone else suffering for him, someone he didn't remember.
He looked around and the feelings of loneliness attacked his mind, there was no one who could see him except for Chansung and Taecyeon but only when they slept.
Then he remembered that boy who saw him even awake. What was his name? He had not seen him for some time when he told him what his name was, because he could not remember it and had also taken him to an extraordinary place ... but he remembered no more.
