- CHAPTER 2 -

“Let me get this straight, Cheolie. You don’t even remember his face clearly yet you said you might like him?”

Seungcheol nodded weakly as Jihoon stared him down, obviously mocking him for falling for Jeonghan after only hearing his voice. Seungcheol felt like burying himself somewhere from the looks his best friend was throwing his way. He could not help it; Jeonghan’s voice was like no other he had ever heard. It was pleasant and smooth, as sweet as honey dripping from the heavens. When that voice picked up, Seungcheol could almost imagine a pair of soft rosy pink lips moving with every word uttered. I want to be able to hear his voice forever.

Oh, Jihoon would never let him live it down if he knew what he was thinking. “So, what now? You want to meet this Yoon Jeonghan after work?” The smaller man continued while switching his attention back to his primary task; his job. They still needed to reach this month’s target. “Yes, and I want you to set me up with him.” Seungcheol answered and earned a smack on the back of his head immediately. Ouch, feisty little kitten! Jihoon just swiftly scooted back to his cubicle—which was next to Seungcheol—on his rolling chair.

Seungcheol moved closer to the cubicle partition between them. “Yah, Jihoon! What was that for!?” He nursed the sore spot and glared at the culprit, although Jihoon did not even spare him a glance. He could hear Jihoon sigh while still typing on his keyboard. “How the hell can I do that? I mean, we don’t even work in the same department. I don’t have his number,” Jihoon’s fingers stopped tapping, “And we’ll be out of the office for the rest of the week, Cheolie. The end of month is nearing, we have targets to achieve!” He tried to reason and then massaged his temples.

“Well, you and that hamster kid even come from different divisions, but you guys still manage to work it out somehow?” Seungcheol wiggled his eyebrows, rather enjoying one of those rare moments when he could tease the hell out of his best friend. He ducked in time to save his head from another smack from Jihoon, causing the other man to hit the partition instead. It made quite a noise on top of Jihoon cursing under his breath and Seungcheol laughing so hard only a wheeze came out.

“Yah! Keep it down, you two!” One of their workmates shouted from around the corner, poking his head out of his cubicle. “Sorry, Wonwoo!” Seungcheol waved his hand at him and finally began working. The two best friends decided to continue talking via their company’s chat application, though. Not the wisest move since the company could track and monitor its employees’ conversations. But the app allowed them to multitask and maintain a conducive working environment.
