A countdown
Lie or Diegetting in his office anger frustration madness everything was boiling inside of him he take off his necktie and throw it on the floor, Mr.Ooh came after him with “sir! Please”
“DON’T” he screamed with his deep voice even the right hand got scared “LEAVE” he ordered he can’t look at his face now he know he was lying, he got embarrassed in a freaking live broadcast! How can he forgive him about that! He is the CEO and they played him like that? What they were thinking? He saw his phone ringing he look at the ID and immediately slide the green button saying “Dad!”
“Are you alright?” He heard his father saying
“Yes am fine! Dad” Chanyeol said with a defeated way he doesn’t want to made his father condition more worse so he just swallow his anger in those few seconds he is talking with him
“Did they contacted you?” His father voice was shaking this time like he was afraid of something
“Who?” Chanyeol says maybe he know what he was talking about since he got that creepy message but he just act dumb to not make him worried
“Nothing!” His father said “But if you feel that something is off tell me okay? And son don’t trust anybody”
“Yes father!” Chanyeol said then hang up the call and open the message reading it again “Lie or Die?”
Chanyeol didn’t leave his office for the whole day he tried to google this Lie or Die thing but nothing was there, no clue nothing the time to the 10 arrived Chanyeol was really not in the mood to go to any party but the message from Kyungsoo let him feel a little guilty
From Kyungsoo: you gave me a promise! < _<
He stands going outside the secretary didn’t dare to speak with him and no other worker dare to they were just giving him the maximum space they can to not get any blame, moving to the garage Suho was standing next to the car he saw Chanyeol and immediately open the door for him to get in, but Chanyeol stopped looking at Baekhyun car coming in! Probably he went to the university and came back for the night shift he have as usual, seeing him going out from the car Chanyeol change his way directly to him getting near him catching his hand and tuning him to face him with anger he said “We need to talk”
“wh…?” Baekhyun couldn’t even reply he felt Chanyeol dragging him along with him to his car direction “Yaa!!” Baekhyun tried to release himself from the grab but Chanyeol was deadly grabbing him like he will run away without coming back, he saw him getting near the opened door with “Suho drive” and pushing him inside and get in after him preventing him from going out, but Baekhyun just move to the door in the other side and want to open it to leave but again the giant body next to him grab him from his two hand restraining them both sides under his and looking straight at him “WHY MY FATHER WENT TO MEET YOU AFTER HE CAME OUT FROM THE HOSPITAL?” He screamed the words to the point he make Baekhyun speechless
Suho start to drive the car outside immediately not daring to do or say anything
“ANSWER ME!” Chanyeol screamed in furious
Baekhyun in his surprise he just replied with a fast and low tone saying “he need a footage without anyone knowing, so he asked me to give that to him secretly!”
“WHY HE NEEDED IT FOR?” Chanyeol asked again screaming, but this time Baekhyun didn’t stayed calm why is he treating him like this he told him what he wanted!!
“WHY ARE YOU SCREAMING!!!!” Baekhyun couldn’t contain it “DO I LOOK LIKE I KNOW! HIS YOUR FATHER GO ASK HIM! JUST LEAVE ME ALONE GOD DAMN IT” Baekhyun now was the one who screaming trying to lose the grip
Chanyeol huffs in a defeated way he know that he exaggerated but what to do it his nature to act before thinking he let his hands “I thought you would give me a clue to what happened, am…really sorry”
Baekhyun huffs too but seeing his face and how he is deeply desperate and disappointed from inside so why not help him just a little bit “the black week” He said and Chanyeol look at him in a questioning look
“The workers call it like that!” Baekhyun explain “it a week when everything in the company got wiped! Accounts, Data, information, mails everything but in the seventh day everything came back to normal”
Chanyeol was more shocked that a security knows that and he doesn’t “why no one told me about it?”
Baekhyun shrugs “it was an order from your father that no one should know what happened no reporters no outsiders, even the footage of that week has been deleted except I kept the copy I gave to your father, but seeing the reporter know about something didn’t go outside that a thing!”
Chanyeol look at Baekhyun shocked “a spy!”
“Maybe!” Baekhyun shrugs
“You have an idea what this Lie or Die is? I searched that one the web but didn’t find a thing” Chanyeol asked
“It is the cause of the black week! Rumors said that they choose a target and they make his life upside down then crush it, Take your father example successful rich dumb in technology! He is a good target to be honest”
“That bull” Chanyeol said “what about the security system don’t we have one??”
Baekhyun nodded “you do but maybe that the first thing you should work on fixing it”
Chanyeol just lean his head on the seat closing his eyes with “this is not what I expected”
Baekhyun just look at him not saying any other word in the subject, he turn to Suho “Suho hyung please go from the north road and leave me there! I don’t want any problem in public” Suho gladly said a yes and Chanyeol didn’t bother to say anything
Looking outside the window Baekhyun wondered how money could make people do crazy staff, but Chanyeol problem isn’t the worse scenario right? Because what people did for money in his life made him who he is today “funny!” he mumble with himself with a little sarcasm laugh,
What he didn’t notice was Chanyeol who open his eyes and look at him and how he was in deeply though, Chanyeol could see the saddest expression he ever saw! Wondering what on his mind? What is he hiding? But not thinking of it for long because he start to look at the detail of the other face how he really look like a sad puppy in that corner of the car, how his little body was easy to drag how he is so small how he can protect himself from this big world? feeling a strange urge to just let him with him and try his best to not see this expression his wearing even without knowing the reason, Chanyeol heart start to beat fast when his eyes stopped on his lips and how he saw him them with his tongue the temperature start to rise again, he felt an unusual and uncomfortable feels! Is this how it felt when you like someone? You want to be close? You want him to be yours and just yours?
Feeling a heavy weight on his shoulder Baekhyun turn to see Chanyeol putting his head on his shoulder and saying with his deep voice “just for few seconds”
Baekhyun again was speechless his eyes were wide open he look at the mirror where Suho was smiling at him
“Sir! Sir?”
Opening his eyes Chanyeol look at the driver who was waking him up “we arrived” he heard him saying for his surprise he fall asleep he look for a certain someone but he didn’t find him…he left…Chanyeol heart felt empty…he was now positive he must be liking that guy! But why? What did he do to make him feel like that I few days? He look at window and saw Kyungsoo and Sehun coming to his direction
Kyungsoo goes to Chanyeol opening the door “come no reporters here don’t worry”
Sehun nodded laughing “positive things when you are the son of the head of Seoul police”
Kyungsoo laughed with a V sign “let go in”
Chanyeol follow the two inside the party was loud everyone dancing, drinking, laughing they saw him and start to say the welcome word, he hear it from everyone there he moves with Sehun to a sofa sitting there and taking a drink with “I need this to wake”
“Take it slow!” Sehun said “you look fine for someone who just got crushed in front of the reporters”
Chanyeol huffs “your father lie to me Sehun that really hurt you know!”
Sehun laughed and said in sarcasm “even I don’t trust my father how did you? He promised to buy me a new car but till now he didn’t! See he is a liar”
“Shut up!!” Chanyeol said rolling his eyes “how can that be the same case?”
Sehun just shrugs and Kyungsoo come “what are you guys talking about?” he said and sits on another sofa beside them
“How ridiculous you look today” Sehun said in sarcasm
The three heard cheering and loud voices from the door Kyungsoo look at the door with “who came?” he stand to get a clear vision with a surprised smile he called “Baekhyun!”
Chanyeol heart drop hearing the name he stands immediately to see the little coming there direction with a “hello”
Kyungsoo goes and hug him “finally I can die in peace!” he laughed
Baekhyun laughed with him he look at Chanyeol with “welcome” then sits next to Kyungsoo who gave him a drink and Baekhyun accept it happily,
Chanyeol sitting back he didn’t take his eyes from him the whole time till Sehun spoke “can you take off your eyes?”
Baekhyun and Kyungsoo look at Chanyeol who shyly look to the ground the three start to laugh at him, Baekhyun tried the maximum to shake off the idea and just act like it was a lame joke from Sehun, the four start to laugh and chitchat after and for Chanyeol surprise Baekhyun was really a mood maker his smile didn’t fade the whole time and it made everyone around smile with it, that so different from the time at the car so different personality to the point he start thinking is he acting right now? Or he is just like that?
A text message arrived to Kyungsoo in WhatsApp he take his phone “a welcome video in the school group” he said “I guess someone recorded it”
Sehun who had the same message since he was in the group said “really let us see!” he take his phone out to see the vid
Chanyeol also look at his phone and yes he found the video he want to click on the link but he saw Baekhyun taking his phone from his hand immediately with “DON’T OPEN IT” the three look surprised at Baekhyun but in seconds they start to hear the message coming to everyone on the party and everyone start to open it
“What is this?” “What happened?” “What wrong with my phone?” everyone start to ask looking at their phones
The four stand to look at what going on Sehun take a random phone from a boy near him then show it to the three with “what the ?”
The phones were having a black screen with a countdown of 5 minutes
