"Great job today, Minho! You really convinced the students and the guests about our new projects." Their had approached him, delighted about what his favorite student did.

"I did my best, sir. It was a pleasure to present the project for them in behalf of the school. However, I still need to catch up to my work. I'll see you soon, Mr.Im!" Minho bowed and thanked their head while packing his items he brought for the presentation.

"Still the hardworking student I knew you would be. Have a good day at work and avoid accidents, Minho." Their head bid farewell to his student, both of them heading to the gate of the school.

Now, Minho was headed to his part-time job. He was the simple server and cashier at a well known restaurant inside the Shallows. All of the servers were male and the salary was paying well. Minho liked his job because he gained friends and brothers inside that restaurant.

He walked near the restaurant. He spotted two males who was talking, the shorter and blonde one was laughing and the taller one was listening to whatever the other male was talking about.

"Minho hyung!" The shorter male smiled and ran up to Minho.

"Hi Hongjoong, Seonghwa." Minho smiled a little and greeted the two boys infront of him.

Seonghwa smiled and bowed as well at him.

"Are you okay? We heard what happened and we're really shocked about the news. I didn't expect Jisung would actually do something like that." Hongjoong asked him in concern, feeling sad that his friend got played and cheated like that.

"Mostly every student at school is discussing about it." Seonghwa added, sighing in the process.

Minho could only stand there. He did not expect that such news can widely spread very easily around his school and to his own friends. Nevertheless, he shouldn't be too affected by it.

"It's fine... I'm sure I will be okay." he managed a smile, assuring his friends about his situation.

"How can you assure that? The last time we checked, you and Jisung were really passionate about your relationship. And this is a big thing for you because none of us really expected for him to cheat like that. Do you know who was the guy he cheated with you?" Hongjoong asked him in curiosity.

That sent Minho over the edge already. He didn't want to deal with any of this today. Nor anyone mentioning about it. Though, he didn't want to sound very rude to him.

"How about... we dismiss the topic? Now isn't a good time to talk about it. We have our consecutive works to do." Minho sighed, sending Hongjoong to be silent and think about what he was doing all this time.

He looked at Seonghwa who lets out a sigh as well and eyeing Hongjoong that he needs to zip it and dismiss the topic.

"Sorry... I just wanted to check on you after Hyunjin had informed us about it too." Hongjoong apologized and didn't ask Minho about it anymore.

"I will be fine." Minho added and looked away from Hongjoong's eyes.

"We are sorry the world has been cruel to you..." Seonghwa said while giving him a comforting smile.

"I'm sure I'll be fine... Why don't we get to work?" The other spoke softly and already looked at the restaurant who was waiting for the three of them.
