"Now what?"

Jeonghan mumbled out.

Well.. he passed the interview and he'll start working after 2 weeks.
However he can't bring himself to celebrate. He's problematic of his lovelife.

Yeah. What the hell. He has three handsome admirers--suitors.

He would usually say 'Im so pretty' before back when he was still a sophomore.

But now, he's tangled on a complicated brother's complex.

And he doesn't like the sound of it in a bit. Jeonghan frowned remembering how Mingyu look so sad when he excused himself and try to get out of his car as soon as possible.

He don't want to see Mingyu with that face. Not him and not with his brothers.

Jeonghan found himself walking a little distance already from the building where he will soon work.

The sea side park somehow made him felt light. The wind calm his heart.

Now that he think of it, he also think of the possibilities.

Who will he choose? What will happen if he choose? What will their parents say?

And other questions flood his mind.

He sighed again to calm his mind.

'What am I going to do? Im not even a girl..'

The Kim sibling's faces never leave his mind eversince.

'How am I gonna act in front of them? Im not even that pretty.. Oh my. What to do? Ugh! What did I get myself into this time? Am I cursed or something? Did I do something bad in my past life? I really don't want to hurt them. I want to be with all of them, with Chan, Mom and Dad. I don't want to choose either. What am I gonna do? Huhu..'














 

"Jeonghan hyung, Is that you?"

The pretty male's eyes was met with a friend he haven't seen a very long time.

"Hansol? Seungkwan?!"
 

"Hyung!!"
 

The two run onto him with arms open wide. They all smile at their little reunion.

"Oh my.. Hyung you look like a celebrity.. "

Seungkwan with his ever diva vibe said when they parted.

"Shut up.."

Jeonhan retorts blushing.

"Boo is right hyung.. You really do. Your hair makes you even more prettier.."
 

"Really? Well.. You too Hansol.. and off course.. You got thinner now Seungkwan-ah.."
 

The two just gave a cheeky smile.

Evidently happy because they saw Jeonghan on their free day.
 

"Hyung let's go.. Come with us."

 

Seungkwan held Jeonghan excitedly because they really miss him.
The three end up on a mall.

 

"Hansol, Seungkwan. How are you guys? I mean.. between you two?"

 

The two smile before looking at each other then Hansol starts to speak while the two eating ice cream.
 

"Well.. because Seungkwan loves me so much.. I finally said yes--
 

He receive a pinch on his side and a smack on his back.

"Shut up! You're the one who followed me everywhere and you always ask me out and won't stop until I say yes because of annoyance."

 

Hansol just laugh as well as Jeonghan.

He knew the two would make a cute couple. Since Hansol is so whipped with Seungkwan and the latter is a sassy one.

 

"You're cute. Both of you.."
 

Jeonghan praised the two who blushed instantly. Now Jeonghan felt envious. When will he finally find his the one-- oh.. right.

Suddenly he frowned. He remember the siblings.

 

"What about you hyung? Is it you and Jisoo hyung now?"
 

Jeonghan on the other hand look at them eyebrows raised.
 

"Jisoo? No. Why would you think about that?"

 

Jeonghan asked. Why would Hansol mention Jisoo on his lovelife?

 

"Does that mean he didn't tell you yet?"
 

Seungkwan asked clearly unbelieving.
 

"He really likes you back then hyung.. but Jun hyung hate him so much so he settled being your Bestfriend then.."

 

Jeonghan blinks multiple times.

Now there's Jisoo..


 

"Seriously? I mean.. I really thought you're together now."

"H-he didn't tell me anything.."



 

Jeonghan said. Which is true.

 

Jisoo has always been the most supportive friend he have eversince they met. Being together in all class made bith of them closer to each other ...

Sure Jisoo was a gentleman. He's sweet, caring and kind.

An ideal boyfriend indeed.

But Jeonghan didn't know about his true feelings. So actually they eventually end up being bestfriends.
 

"He's in California now.. he told us he'll be back here somehow.."


 

Jeonghan suddenly miss his bestfriend. But hesitated at the thought that Jisoo liked him.
 

It would be too awkward actually.
 

Oww.. He just hope Jisoo move on already.
 

"Do you want to see him?"

 

Seungkwan asked.


 

"Of course. Though after what you told me.. I don't even know how to act towards him either."

 

The two sighed.

"What if Jisoo hyung still likes you?"



 

Hansol's question made Jeonghan's ice cream halt in the air.

He swallowed it all. "I don't know anymore.. there's still others I have---



 

'What the heck? Stupid mouth of mine.. Uugghh!!'

 

The two gave him a look.

 

"Spill.. what is it.. Hyung?"


 

Seungkwan with his eyebrows pumping up and down.

 

"N-nothing.. Did I say something?"


 

Jeonghan act like he didn't.

But the couple just grew more Curious.
 

"Is it Jun hyung?"

 

"Wonwoo hyung?"



 

"Wait.. Don't tell me it's Mingyu hyung?"


 

The couple is guessing who it would be.. And since Jeonghan trust the two of them more than he trust himself he decided to tell them the truth and to take advices too.


 

"Actually there's three of them.. Ugh! And if Jisoo is still.. Ugh! I wanna go and bury myself alive."

 

Jeonghan whined.





 

The couple blinks as they stop scooping their shared dessert..




 

"You mean you're in a brother complex? Woah.. wait.. "


 

Hansol with his meme face asked.
 

"Whatever you call it--

 

Jeonghan's ringtone cut him off.
While the two observe him as he answer the phone.


 

"Hello?"
 

"Hannie hyung.."


 

The couple look at each other mouthing the caller's name.

 

"Yup. What is it Wonwoo-yah?"

 

Upon hearing the name, the two dropped their jaw..


 

"Did you eat your lunch yet? How was the interview?"

 

"It was fine.. I was accepted. Im with Hansol and Seungkwan now.. we're eating on a restaurant inside a mall.."

 

"Really? You want me to come over and fetch you?"


 

"No. Wonwoo I can manage myself going home. You have a job to take care of, okay?"


 

"Naa.. It's ok. Im free today remember?"
 

Now Jeonghan remembered. They're all free for the day.. Ugh.



 

"Uhm.. no need really. They (the couple) will drive me home. Right guys?"




 

The two answered a 'yes' just to cover up Jeonghan.

 

"Ok then.. Take care.."
 

"Yup. I will.. bye."

 

"Love you. Bye.."

 

Then the phone hung up with Jeonghan blushing..



 

*"Love you. Bye."






 

*"Love you. Bye."





 

*"Love you. Bye."





 

"Earth to Jeonghan!!"


 

Jeonghan snapped when Seungkwan clap in front of his pretty face.

 

"W-what?"


 

He dumbly asked.


 

"You space out. What did he told you?"

 

Hansol questioned him. Seungkwan on the other hand is waiting while having his grin so wide.

 

"N-nothing.. He just--



 

Another ringtone again cut him off this time. At one point, the couple's eyes furrowed.


 

'Disturbance' they say..



 

Jeonghan pick up the call without looking at the caller Id.
 

"Hello.."




 

"Hyung.. where are you now?"

 

"Hey Jun. I-Im in a mall with Seungkwan and Hansol.. why?"

 

"Nothing.. just checking up on you.
Have you eaten your lunch yet?"

 

Same question with his brother.
The couple just listen intently.
Itching to bombared him with questions.

 

"Yup. We're actually in a restaurant in the moment."


 

"I'll fetch you.."


 

Jeonghan closed his eyes..
'They're brothers indeed.'

 

"No need.. Im still going somewhere.. I'll be home by six. Don't worry."


 

"Ok.. Let's talk when you get home.. Bye.."

 

"Yup. Bye..."


 

"Saranghae Jeonghan-ah.."

 

Then the phonecall ended.

And for the second time Jeonghan can tell that his face is burning. Yup. Burning.

 

Are they trying to give him a heart attack? 2 phonecalls in minutes? Seriously?




 

"You're in a dilemma hyung.. How will you handle them?"



 

Hansol asked in daze trying to compromise Jeonghan's complicated situation.
 

"I've been asking myself the same thing Hansol. Trust me, I don't even know how.."


 

"Waaahh.. Hyung how did it happened? Is that the reason they were so over protective over you?"
 

"I don't know Seungkwan. Maybe. Ugh! Believe me, I don't want to be in this position. They're to vulnerable to break."

 

Jeonghan whined like a child on his two dongsaengs.












 

"Accept them then.."

 

Hansol said out of the blue.
 

"What?"

 

"I mean.. you know.. We've known them and we also know they don't give up on things they want. That's their famous reputation back in college."


 

Hansol said. However, Jeonghan can't comprehend what he was trying to say. So Seungkwan in.


 

"What Hansol saying is.. just let them show their feelings to you. It's really hard to pick between them--

 

"Im not choosing between them."

 

"Then observe first. Try to look at their differences.. If you happen to like someone between them then tell them the truth. Don't lift their hopes up hyung.. It hurts when they fell just to be catch by the floor."


 

Jeonghan frowned even more.
 

What they said was totally right.

 

"But they're persistent. I tried telling them that but they won't budge.."

 

Jeonghan reasoned which was also true.
 

"Then I'd had to say you should wait 'till they get tired running after you.."






 

"What if we won't?"





 

The three look at the guy approaching.. with another guy.

Wearing mask and a cap. They look like hiding from someone.

 

The two stranger sit beside them that made the couple startled..
 

..but not Jeonghan.





 

"Mingyu.."




 

Jeonghan called. Hansol and Seungkwan's eyes widen before they look at Mingyu again.


 

"Hyung-- oh wait. This is Xu Minghao anyway.. "


 

Mingyu gestured the man sitting beside him.
 

They all smiled at him.
 

"So you're Jeonghan. Mingyu's right. You're pretty. We finally met.."
 

Minghao said as he offered a hand on Jeonghan..
 

The latter received it warmly and evidently blushing.


 

"T-thanks.. you're handsome too Minghao. I've seen your ads on TV with Mingyu."
 

It's Minghao's time to blush this time.

Now he finally understand why Mingyu fell for Jeonghan.
 

He's an angel indeed.
 

Minghao waved on the couple on the other side.



 

Moments later after the two scrutinise Mingyu, Seungkwan spoke in praising tone.


 

"Oh my hyung.. I didn't recognize you.. You look like a.. "








 

"..a snatcher."
 

Hansol continued Seungkwan's statement to a joke. Jeonghan laughed as well as Minghao. Mingyu on the other hand just shake his head amusingly.


 

"You two never change.."


 

"Yeah. We still have the habit where we continue --

 

"--each other's sentence.."


 

"Hansol stop cutting--

 

"--you off.. Okay. Fine."





 

Seungkwan glared at his lover.
 

While the three just look at them grinning.
 

"Cute."

 

Minghao complimented. Which made the two blushed and look away from each other..
 

Meanwhile Jeonghan feels uneasy.
 

Mingyu is looking at him since they came. Not leaving his sight on him.
 

"M-mingyu.. I thought you're home already?"
 

Jeonghan tried to avoid the gaze while sipping his juice.




 

"I was about to. But I saw Minghao strolling around so I stroll with him as well.. then we saw you here."


 

"And we eventually heard it all.."
 

Minghao said wearing his mask off showing his grin.


 

"Y-you heard it? All?"




 

The two nod.

 

Now Jeonghan just want to evaporate.

"You shouldn't be asking for advices at this two dorks.. they at those.."


 

Mingyu said smirking teasing the two dongsaengs.

The couple felt insulted cutely.



 

"How dare you hyung? We trust you and this is your payback? How dare you?"


 

Hansol said dramatically even clutching his chest.

 

Seungkwan fake a cry. Even wiping an invisible tears using his finger.

 

"We we're just trying to sort things out between you.. And all you'll say is this? How evil of you hyung?"



 

"Shut up you two or I'll tell your managers that you forgot about your diet."



 

Mingyu retorts.

 

The couple's eyes widen.

Yup. They're on a diet but here they are.. Eating every food they see.



 

"Jeonghan hyung.. I think Mingyu hyung is the best option.."

 

The two suddenly said in unison..

And it made them all laugh.


















 

"Bye! We'll call you hyung! Bye!"



 

The couple waved bye when their car is in motion already.
 

"They're funny.."


 

Minghao said while fixing his cap.


 

Jeonghan on the other hand help him.

 

"It must have been hard hiding from your fans.. "

 

Minghao blushed.. Mingyu at one point nudge his side and it made him whimper..



 

"How dare you blush like that in front of me bacause of my hyung?"
 

Jeonghan smiled because of Mingyu's Childish jealousy.

 

"What? He's just so pretty ok.. He's all yours if you want-- Ow!"

 

He received another smack.

"Mingyu stop.. really. Poor Minghao.."


 

Jeonghan said laughing.

Even Minghao fell for his laugh.

 

"Ya! go home already! I don't want to have another challenger! Aish.."



 

Mingyu said pushing Minghao away from Jeonghan. The two starts to bicker while Minghao is being pushed towards the door.
 

The latter eventually waved goodbye to Jeonghan who is laughing at the two.





 

"That moron.."



 

Mingyu mumbled when he get back to Jeonghan.



 

"You want to go home already?"



 

Mingyu asked. Jeonghan nod his head. Atleast the awkwardness is gone already.


 

They drive home silently. It wss tiring actually. The Verkwan couple is too hyper and it made them hyper too. Thanks to them they enjoy the day.
But they won't deny it. It's really exhausting.



 

While Jeonghan closed his eyes.. He remembered Hansol's voice.


 

"Accept them then.."




 

'But how? If I do, I will fuel all their hopes up? What if I reject them at the end? Ugh! What am I going to do??'



 

But eventually he end up dozing off..
