"You still haven't answered my question." Seonghwa laughed as he saw how tired Hongjoong actually was. The younger didn't sleep all night, his thoughts consumed him. He mainly thought about the customer from two days ago. But he had to remain himself from saying that.
"Which question?" Hongjoong mumbled and rubbed his eyes tiredly. Trying to doge that question.
He heard a giggle behind Seonghwa. It was Yeosang. "Why are you laughing?" the white haird male asked confused. "Because it's obvious!" Yeosang made eye contact. "What's obvious?" "That you found your soulmate." Seonghwa said softly and laid his hand on the youngers shoulder.
"Nah, but for real now? Who do you think is my soulmate?" He asked and his co-workers stared at him. "Orange haired costumer, who bought six books at once." Yeosang informed. Not thinking much of his words. "He's my soulmate? Do you think?" Hongjoong was unsure. He thought he found the stranger attractive. Seonghwa nodded, totally convinced that the taller was Hongjoongs soulmate. Even though the two met only one time. The way they looked and smiled at each other. Maybe their relationship wasn't developing as fast as Wooyoungs and Sans but still Seonghwa believed in it.
"I mean yeah. It could be but I don't have time for it, don't I? Like I have a whole store and y'all. Can I manage that?" Hongjoong mumbled. Seonghwa and Yeosang were worried. Hongjoong walked around the kitchen. Made them coffee and talked to himself.
The door opened and Wooyoung and San walked in. They laughed together, holding hands. As the both of them looked up, they saw their worried Hyungs and a almost hyperventilating Hongjoong.
"What's going on here?" Wooyoung asked in a serious tone. The other three looked over to them. "I'm panicking." Hongjoong answered biting his lip. "He is panicking." Seonghwa and Yeosang said in unison. "No shit Sherlock." San muttered sarcastically. Wooyoung shook his head.
"Why are you panicking Hongjoong Hyung?" The lilac haired boy asked concerned. He let go of Sans hand and walked towards the second oldest, ignoring Sans pouting. Seonghwa spoke up but Wooyoung shushed him with the words; "Don't speak, because Hongjoong Hyung can speak for himself."
So Seonghwa immediately shut up and watched the younger handle the situation. Wooyoung hugged Hongjoong to comfort him. Even though he hated skinship Hongjoong let it happen. The second oldest began crying in Wooyoungs warm embrace.
"I know it's overwhelming." Wooyoung mumbled. Everyone was silent. Only things heard were ugly crying and breathing. "How'd you know I need a hug?" Hongjoong suddenly said sniffling. "I guessed. Everyone needs a hug sometimes. And especially when it's about soulmates." Wooyoung smiled at Hongjoong. "And before you ask, yes, I guessed."
"I'm just overstrained." the white haired sniffled, while whipping away his tears. "I still am, because, ya know, mine is a sensitive bitch." They both laughed. San began sulking around. "See?" Was the only thing Wooyoung added onto that action.
Seonghwa shook his head and walked away with a smile. Yeosang following close behind. They opened up the store. San went to the office and Wooyoung was still with Hongjoong. Talking about soulmates and giving advice. The younger was different. He didn't pity him.
"Wooyoung?" "Hm?" "Thank you." "You're welcome." And so they got up from their chairs and walked towards the store.
