The atmosphere between DG and Miho thickened the second they caught each other's eyes. Miho remembered seeing him before when he had accompanied his mother a few times to meet up with Charles Choi— who he rarely sees even then. The albino felt unsettled in that man's presence and he'd rather wait for his mother outside.

Often, he would meet DG but he had never met Crystal Choi before, surprisingly enough. Imagine his shock when he learned that the Crystal from the convenience store and the Crystal from their class were daughters of Charles. "Minho Jun."

"..!" - insert Miho gritting his teeth before forcing out a smile. "It's Miho, DG. It's best if you remember that." Cue the air getting even heavier after the albino uttered those words.

Minho Jun... How much he loathed that name. Hearing someone else calling him Minho like that man sent shivers of disgust down his spine.

"..." DG eyed the white-haired shorty with a curious gaze. He often saw the other in magazines, electronic build boards, tv and other social media platforms. It hadn't been long but Miho Di had already become famous. His influence on the people was pretty tight and he wondered if he could rope the albino into his side.

"Minho—" cue a glare from the albino which made the idol sweatdrop. "Miho, what about a collaboration with my company?"

"No thanks."

"..."

"..."

Cue a crow cawing idiots outside.

And the both of them stayed silent until the meeting between Hiro and Charles ended. The first to step out of the meeting room was Hiro. His reddish-brown eyes flickered towards DG before the brunet walked pass the idol and grabbed his twin's wrist, dragging the albino away. Miho blinked as he stared at the back of his brother's head. "Hiro?"

"Miho, from now on, don't associate with people who are connected with Charles Choi." The brunet whispered under his breath the second he pulled his brother to his side. "Don't talk to them. Don't ask for their help. Don't even look their way, alright?"

"... why?"

A conflicted look appeared on Hiro's face but instead of giving him the answer, the brunet simply shook his head. "Just remember what I said, alright?"

Although Miho wanted to know the reason, he knew that whatever Hiro says would always be in his best interest. It was a shame though. That Kouji kid was a little interesting. He reminded Miho of his brother when the brunet was just starting to learn his current skills.

"..." Jay eyed the little albino sitting beside him as the teacher's voice blurred into the background. Ever since yesterday, his seatmate had been stealing glances at Daniel which made the blond a little curious. He wondered if there was something wrong or perhaps there was something in Miho's mind that he couldn't say.

And so, under the table, Jay lightly poked Miho's thigh to get his attention, causing the shorty to peer up at him from the corner of his eyes. Jay tilted his head, conveying his confusion. Seeing this, the albino smiled and shook his head; indicating that the blond shouldn't worry too much.
