“So tell me.”

Kyuhyun raises his eyes, finding the president’s gaze on him. In the soft, pale hues of a winter afternoon, he suddenly looks years older.

“This morning’s incident with the junior staffer, and then the Cabinet Minister’s gaffe, the Secretary of Defence’s speech in the afternoon, not to mention that message from the NSA and just now, the phone call from my mother—this entire day has been orchestrated to lead me to this decision. Am I right?”

Kyuhyun does not answer; he knows well enough that his little smirk already speaks volumes.

Which is just as well that Siwon’s kiss is equally eloquent.
