Chapter 35 : Not that romantic.

Third person point of view

Jihoon then drove to the shooting sight. He parked the car and walked in. He saw Junkyu was busy acting, so he stood to the side and waited. " Cut ". The director gave a signal and the actors turned to the director who gave thumbs up. Jihoon took a water bottle and went to Junkyu. " Oh. You came back faster than I thought ".

Junkyu said when he saw Jihoon. " I don't know what are there in it, so check after going home. If there is anything more, I will go get them for you ". Junkyu nodded and drank some water. Jihoon took the bottle and went back to stand aside. He felt his phone vibrate in his pocket. He took it out and saw it was a new number.

He sighed. " Why do I not have a nice feeling ? " He mumbled to himself and picked up. " Hello ? " " Hello. I am Yoshinori. Haruto's secretary ". " Oh. What is it that made you call me ? " " Sir actually asked me to send a bouquet to Mr. Kim Junkyu. And the delivery boy is waiting outside. They stopped him from entering because there is a shoot going on. Do you mind collecting it ? "

Jihoon's eyebrows shot up. " Sure. I will go get it ". " Thank you so much ". " No problem ". Jihoon hung up and went out. He did see a guy standing there with a bouquet. " Here ". He called the guy and took it from him. Jihoon went back and saw Junkyu was sitting on the chair. " Take this ". He gave it to Junkyu.

" What is this ? Who is it from? " Jihoon shrugged. " How will I know that ? My duty is only to deliver it to you ". Junkyu checked the bouquet. It was full of roses. He found a small card in there. He took it out and his eyes went wide. It read ' sorry '. He turned it around and there was Haruto's name. He sighed and gave it back to Jihoon.

" Put it inside ". Jihoon took it and put it away. Junkyu let out a breath. He shook his head and pushed it to the back of his mind. He shouldn't be too distracted during the shoot. He took a deep breath. The director called for him and he got up and went to finish his part. The day ended successfully.

Jihoon drove them back home. Junkyu opened his suit case and there was everything he needed. Junkyu was still not sure when he was going to leave Jihoon's house. He took a shower and changed into the clothes he got. They both sat down in the living room. " What do I do with this ? " Jihoon asked showing the bouquet.

Junkyu glanced at it with cold eyes. " You can do whatever you want with it. Tear it, throw it, burn it. I don't care ". Jihoon wanted to say something but stopped. He shook his head with a sigh. He didn't have any vases to put all those flowers in. He really did not have the heart to throw it away just like that.

He picked up a few roses and put them in a bottle of water and put it on the table. He just left the remaining lying there. That was all he could do. Hyunsuk came back home. " I'm home ". Both of them smiled at Hyunsuk. Junkyu went back to watching something on his phone with his earphones stuffed in his ears. Hyunsuk put his bag aside and went to get some water.

He drank it and saw the flowers on the table. He turned to Jihoon. " What is this? " He chuckled. Jihoon showed Junkyu with his eyes. Hyunsuk was confused. He knitted his eyebrows. Jihoon showed Junkyu with his eyes again. Hyunsuk was still not able to catch up. He mouthed the word. " What ? "

Jihoon scrunched his face and took a deep breath. He took his phone and sent a text to Hyunsuk saying it was Haruto who sent them to Junkyu. Hyunsuk made a silent ' oh '. Jihoon then told how Junkyu wanted to actually throw them away. Hyunsuk looked up at Junkyu who was immersed in his phone.

He nodded and sat beside Junkyu. Jihoon played on his phone and Hyunsuk opened a shopping website looking at clothes. Junkyu pulled out his earphones and put it aside. Hyunsuk glanced at him and went back to his phone. " How did the shoot go ? " " It was fine ". Junkyu answered. Hyunsuk nodded and looked nonchalant.

" What are those flowers ? " " Just some trash ". " Junkyu-ah ". Junkyu sighed. " Why do you ask when you already know ? " " Huh ? " " Do I look that dumb ? " Hyunsuk smiled knowing they got caught. Junkyu rolled his eyes. " You do ". Jihoon answered. " Yah ! " Junkyu was ready to punch but Jihoon just laughed. " Kidding ".

Junkyu pouted lowering his hand. " You agree that both of you are at mistake right ? " Junkyu nodded as an answer to Hyunsuk's question. " Then can you really not forgive him ? " Junkyu shook his head. " Why ? " " Why should I give in to just a bouquet of roses ? I am not that easy and it is not even that romantic ".

" WHAT ? " Hyunsuk and Jihoon shouted at the same time. " Why ? " Junkyu was confused. They were only shocked by the romantic part. " Nothing ". Jihoon answered. Junkyu picked up his phone. " You want to stay here or go home then ? " Hyunsuk asked. " I don't want to be alone. Just let me stay here for now ".

" Alright ". Hyunsuk nodded. " Thank you ". " It is okay. I cannot leave my son alone when he is feeling down". Jihoon said ruffling Junkyu's hair. Junkyu pulled away pouting. Jihoon decided to cook dinner for them all. " What is it with you ? " Junkyu asked looking at Jihoon who was chopping vegetables.

" Why ? You don't want to eat it ? " " You are definitely a better cook than me so I have nothing to complain about ". Junkyu laughed. Jihoon shook his head smiling. They all had it together and played UNO for a while. Junkyu was the last to go to sleep. He glanced at the roses on the table. He looked away and went to his room. He fell asleep.
