haruto went to his friend's house later on. the door opened, "oh? jihoon hyung!" "ruto-yah!" "how are you?" "good, come in!" "jeongwoo?" "he's watching romantic dramas in the living room", haruto chuckled.
"this smell-", jeongwoo said as he turned around to see haruto.
"you didn't take a bath, right?", haruto nodded nervously.
"ew ew ew, go take a bath first!", jeongwoo pushed him away. jihoon hitted his brother's head and said, "oh come on! he's your friend after all! you don't like bathing either!"
haruto rolled his eyes and came back after a bath. haruto sat beside the brothers to see the drama they were into.
"i need to tell you about something" both of them nodded, haruto started talking about everything going on. the brothers were attentive sometimes, and distracted some other times.
"i'm so confused! it makes me feel terrible!", jeongwoo sighed and patted his back. jihoon said, "wait, let's see this scene first!"
"why? why can't you accept me for once? how many times do you i have to tell you that i like you?" "i know it! but i like someone else, i love how you've always liked me and made me happy, and you've comforted me too, but i've given my heart to someone else!" the guy cried and the girl went away.
there were tears in jeongwoo's eyes, the other two were concentrated too.
jihoon closed the tv and spoke up, "haruto, saw that?" "yeah i did, quite sad" "that's going to be you in sometime" "me?" "yes, from what you told, you seem like the second lead!" haruto sighed.
"don't sigh kid" "will that make everyone happy?" "what?" "me being the second lead?" "well, if you become a side character and help sua and yoshi get close, yes!" "any other option?" "you could just- hm, i'll have to think.."
"you could just be selfish and do what you want to happen and still keep the others happy", jeongwoo spoke up. haruto looked at him with a confused expression. jeongwoo nodded, "yeah, you can have things your way!"
"but others won't like it" "but you won't get hurt" "but-", haruto sighed.
jihoon smiled and ruffled his hair, "big guy, take time to sort your feelings first. then prioritise people accordingly, then you'll know what to do!" haruto nodded.

haruto went back home to see everyone gathered, he sighed but then decided to put on a smile. "haruto! come here! where did you go? why are your hair still wet?", mrs.watanabe asked.
haruto went towards the living room and all attention was on him. "i went to a friend's house" everyone nodded, he looked around and sat in between of sua and yoshi. his father talked, "we're launching the new model of the aircraft next week and with that the announcement of merging of companies and appointment of a new ceo is going to be made" "the boys are good at studies, so we won't let your studies suffer, you'll be holding the positions only for a name, we'll manage it all and disturb you only a few times", mr park spoke. everyone nodded.
"good at studies?", sua mumbled while looking at haruto who rolled his eyes.
"merging companies mean having two superior positions, well the four of you could decide who do you want to appoint for the roles" the four children exchanged looks. sua pointed at yoshi, yoshi pointed at sua, haruto pointed at himself and sieun pointed at yoshi and haruto.
mrs. watanabe chuckled at her younger son and so did the others. "so, two for haruto and two for yoshi", everyone nodded.
"well the four of you should sign here", the four nodded and signed. "we took the decision about your lives after days of discussions, since you all are familiar with each other from childhood, we thought things would be easier" mrs. park spoke up to earn a nod from everyone.
"mom, what about the marriage?", sieun asked. "well, we'll be holding that on the 4th of august" "that's-" "that's after your results, yoshi and you could decide which university you want to pursue, then we can plan things accordingly" sieun nodded like she wasn't affected at all.
sua looked at haruto, who mouthed a, "don't worry" to her.
everyone dispersed over to their places, haruto took sua to his room. she was excited after seeing cartoon figurines decorated. "your room is cleaner than i expected" "yeah, i tend to clean it once a month" "that is good" "sua, do you not want all this to happen?" "what?" "um, do you not want us to happen?" "to be honest, haruto, i've never considered it. all this time i've only thought about him" haruto nodded, trying to be calm.
"why don't you tell him about it?" "what if it make things more awkward?" "but it would make you feel less heavy?" "alright, i might then"
sua nodded and was about to go out when haruto shouted, "sua" she turned around with a raised eyebrow, "don't confess yet" "why not?" "i have to make a decision first" sua narrowed her eyes and shrugged.
