Matter to You || TaeGyu

Chapter 30

There are three things life can't conceal; the sun, the stars and the truth. It's the reality of life. No matter how we try to bury a lie, there will be a day where everything will eventually burst out. To Beomgyu, it was last night. He never planned on hiding their relationship to the older but he wasn't planning sooner to be frank when he expected the reaction he receives. Yeonjun will never understand him and it was tiring him out because he didn't want to lose anyone just because he chooses to love.

"Yeonjun h-hyung..." He called nervously. Yeonjun never spoke a word when he entered his office. It was over an hour now and he was just busy switching between his laptop or on his papers, not even glancing at Beomgyu like he didn't exist at all.

"Hyung, a-aren't you gonna talk to me?" Beomgyu asked. He was in his usual spot, a table not far from the older. He was going through some newly sketch of the older but he knew that he had a lot of explanations to do.

"I'm sorry hyung. I'm sorry for upsetting you." Beomgyu apologized, his voice was strained. He tried blinking the tears but it was no use. He wanted to speak more; he wanted a long confession of how he truly feels but it doesn't matter. Yeonjun chooses to ignore him, even putting on his headphones so he couldn't hear what Beomgyu was blabbering about.

Yes, Yeonjun was disappointed. He won't fabricate, he is indeed angry at Beomgyu. He didn't imagine the guy to be this dumb for embracing Taehyun like he didn't bawl at him over a month ago for letting him question his worth. Beomgyu is stupid, so stupid but he couldn't bring himself to dislike the softie. It was just a bummer that he had met Taehyun first, that he had to fell in love with him.

What was upsetting is that, he felt like Beomgyu never really considered his emotions. He only wanted to set the younger's heart on the right path. He was open to the idea of the person not being him but why did it have to be Kang Taehyun? The boy is a tough match and he'll never have a chance once the boy set his heart on something. He took a quick glance at Beomgyu who was silently wiping his tears before averting his gaze back again at his laptop, the guilt was creeping his entire system. It wound him seeing Beomgyu crying but let him be dramatic for once. He trusted him and he felt betrayed.

Deciding to just let the older have his space; Beomgyu decided to just stay silent until lunch came. He made lunch for Yeonjun like some days when he felt like it but when he was about to give Yeonjun his food, the guy left the room rushing still not taking a glance on him. Beomgyu's shoulders slumped in disappointment looking at the food. His Yeonjun hyung used to nag him about his cooking, funny how he can easily ignore it now. Beomgyu bit his lower lip, his heart squeezed in pain but chooses to accept the reality of life and just then his phone rang.

"Hey." His voice sounded upset and Taehyun knows it because of Yeonjun.

"Hey beautiful, everything alright there?" He asked worriedly reclining on his office chair.

"Yeah, Yeonjun hyung ignores me though." He replied lowly and boy, Taehyun wanted to run at Yeonjun's to give his boyfriend a tight hug, whisper 'I love you's' to him, kisses him until he it washes away his worries.

"Let's just give him some time okay?" He asked, his voice was assuring and Beomgyu just replied a hum. They both talk on the phone while Beomgyu decides to have his lunch inside. He was used of Yeonjun's presence during this time of the day and he could never express how thankful he is to his Taehyun for not letting him ponder alone.

When lunch was over, Yeonjun never came back and Beomgyu just stayed inside his office waiting for his own schedule. Yeonjun does everything so he isn't really aware about his whereabouts today. To not get bored, Beomgyu decided to kill the time by sketching his own designs. He was never serious about it but his knowledge was quite broad in the field. He continued on scribbling until Yeonjun eventually came back at three in the afternoon but he wasn't alone.
