Junhyung walked lifelessly to the CEO’s room. He was accompanied by Joonkun, their another manager.

“Are you okay, Junhyungie?” Joonkun asked. Junhyung just flashed a small smile.

“I am.”

Joonkun just nodded. “I bet you know why sajangnim called you in right?”

Junhyung smiled. “Neh.”

“Is that news true?” Joonkun asked.

Junhyung stayed silent for a while. He didn’t know what to reply.

“I guess it’s a yes. Chukkae, Junhyungie.” Junhyung just formed a very weak smile. He didn’t feel happy to receive congratulation words and what so ever.

Knock.

“Come in.” Joonkun opened the door for Junhyung. Junhyung entered and Joonkun stayed outside.

The CEO looked up. He smiled a bit.

“Sit.” Junhyung nodded and sat in front of his boss.

“So, will you tell me in full story?”

Junhyung looked at the man. He bit his lips.

“Um…like you know.” Junhyung just managed to say that.

“DSP’s representative already sent it their official statement. Hara admitted the rumor is true. So, your story?”

Junhyung sighed. With the hardest and heavy pained heart, he nodded a bit.

“Like she said.”

The CEO looked at Junhyung closely. He can tell something is weird with his idol.

“Yong Junhyung.” He called the name.

Junhyung stared at his boss.

“I’m going to release an official statement. So answer me truthfully, Yong Jaesoon.”

Junhyung was taken aback when his boss called his birth name.

“I…I…”

Junhyung took a minute to process the thing he should say now.

“I’m dating her, jimshimmae.” Junhyung looked away.

The CEO nodded. “Okay, I will release the official statement this noon.”

Junhyung just stayed silent.

“I will support you guys. You have my blessing.” The CEO added. Junhyung just nodded absentmindedly.

“This evening, tell the other to come. I have some news to tell all of you. Call Hyunseung in too.” The CEO said.

Junhyung bit his lips to hear the name. He just nodded.

“Okay, that’s all.” Junhyung got up and bowed slightly. He excused himself.

‘I can’t do anything to stop this.’

XXXXXXXXX

Beast (except Hyunseung) walked into the company that evening. Doojoon who was the one walked in front. Dongwoon followed behind him and kept a distance from Junhyung. Since the news, Dongwoon never talked to Junhyung.

Yoseob felt sad to hear the official statement and kept thinking how was Hyunseung but in the same time, he could sense something was off with Junhyung. He saw hurt on Junhyung’s face everytime. He knew something happened.

Kikwang was worried about Hyunseung. Even though he can’t explain why this is happening and the official statement also made him shocked, but he knew the most hurtful one now is Hyunseung and that tough-but-weak-inside guy needed someone right now.

Five of them reached the room. Doojoon opened the meeting room door. Dongwoon entered first.

“Here you are. Sit.” The CEO was in. Dongwoon saw Hyunseung.

“Hyung!” Dongwoon quickly hugged Hyunseung. Hyunseung chuckled.

“Aish, this maknae, do you miss me a lot?”

Dongwoon nodded. Hyunseung just smiled while patted Dongwoon’s back.

The others were taking place. Junhyung felt uncomfortable when he knew Hyunseung was there. He really can’t face him. The practice just now, Hyunseung didn’t come. Jiyong failed to force that doe eyes to go.

When Dongwoon pulled away, Hyunseung’s gaze accidentally fell on Junhyung. Hyunseung felt a pang to see hurt on Junhyung’s face.

‘Did I do that to him?’

He have Hara, Hara will make him happy.

Hyunseung bit his lips and looked away.

Junhyung felt his heart squeezed. He took the furthest place from Hyunseung which will not looking at Hyunseung when he paid attention to their boss.

The CEO smiled. “Well, I’ll make it short as you guys have radio show after this.”

Beast nodded.

“I got a new dorm for you. With more space.”

Doojoon blinked. “Jeongmal?”

The CEO smiled. “Yup, um maybe this is the present for Fiction’s success. And for Doojoon…”

Doojoon cut him off. “Sajangnim, no need to celebrate me as the new member plus leader.”

Yoseob, Kikwang and Hyunseung turned to Doojoon. Doojoon smiled and shot them a well-you-know-what-I-a
