Be Honest | HyunChan

Track Five: Arcade

Chan scrunched up his face in frustration, banging his head against the table.

His eyes were red and he had dark circles under them. He didn't really sleep a lot the last two weeks. They were about to release their new album, which technically was done already, but Chan being the perfectionist he is, kept editing, adding some stuff, and even rewrote an entire song.

That's what he does when something's on his mind: Drown himself in work.

"Why tf isn't this working!?"

He looked back at the screen, frantically clicking, hoping that the program would work.

"Jisung?"

The elder looked back at the couch where Jisung sat, Headphones in, eyes closed, probably listening to Machine Gun Kelly.
Chan just sighed and threw a piece of paper at him.

"Ow- that's my eye, Chan!"

The Aussie just laughed, turning back around, knowing the squirrel boy would help him.

"So, this program doesn't work and now I can't edit this track!"

"Ehm Chan, you do realize that that is a screenshot that Changbin used to prank you, right?"

"Wait what? IMMA KILL THIS B-"

"Yah, Chan, calm down, I think you should take a few days off"

"But the album-"

"I think Binnie and I can handle it. Just go home and sleep. You look like a raccoon."

Chan just nodded in defeat and grabbed his stuff.

"If something happens, lemme know, 'kay?"

Jisung just nodded as Chan left.

Hyunjins POV:

He was making his way through The company, earning admiring glances from left and right. The tall boy had bought his boyfriend's favourite coffee and cupcakes to surprise him at work.

Hyunjin smiled to himself, until he heard some murmurs around him.

"Do you think he knows?"

"Poor boy"

"Should we tell him?"

"Shut up, he might hear!"

Hyunjin now had this unsettling feeling as he approached the office, but he just shrugged it off.

He opened the door without knocking and walked in. Then he saw what the workers were talking about.

Bent over the table was a girl he didn't recognize, and his boyfriend, pounding into her. They didn't even notice him at first. He just stood there, still, watching as the man he loved the most cheated on him with a stranger.

He calmly took off his engagement ring, dropped it into the coffee and walked out proudly, his head held up high, a cold stare adorning his soft feature. Hyunjin made his way back to the exit where his ex-fiancés secretary was.

"Hello Valentina, could you please give this to my fiancé? And please tell him I won't be home for dinner."

The Secretary smiled softly and nodded.

"I will, Mr. Hwang."

"Thank you, you're a life saver."

And with that words he left the building, slowly walking back home.
