Everything

3. Truth

They went to a nearby coffee shop "Dark Blue". It was quite packed up as it was lunchtime.
They sat around a rectangular table in the last row. Jisung sat beside Chan and opposite Minho.  They had a normal conversation about what a college-going student can have. 
Jisung started the conversation by introducing himself
“hi .. I am  Han Jisung” followed by
“ I am Bang Chan"
“ and I am Lee Minho .. Nice to meet you all”
Jisung: “all ….what do you mean by all we are three only”
Minho: “ ok.. Nice to meet you both.” after turning to jisung   “Is this alright Mr . Han?"
“ yes, please  Mr. Han says,” said Chan in a sarcastic tone.
“ yes it’s better,  " said Jisung with a proud look.
They started laughing.
Meanwhile, a waiter came with a small notebook in his hand to ask for an order.
"what will you have sir," Waiter asked with a polite tone.
Jisung fought with himself and concluded to order a cappuccino and a cheesecake. Minho and Chan also ordered the same.
They started their convo once again and were surprised to know that they studied together for 1 year without knowing each other.

Chan took the initiative to ask why Jisung was surrounded by the people. Jisung replied "I also don’t know how I ended up meeting them(with the gang).  
Minho was not having a habit of living in this type of situation so he stood first, paid  for his coffee, and said “treat me next time.” And went. Chan also did the same.

After they left Jisung enjoined his own company while eating his favorite cheesecake.

They started having a casual hello hi whenever they got the chance to see each other.

During the second year, they got to know each other little by little. And passed the second year, but they were still not so close to each other. They were still just a casual classmate not more than that.

It was the time for their third year and the last year, but the first year of their friendship.
It was just an ordinary day of an ordinary month.

It was not wrong in saying that morning is starting with Minho and Chan and was ending with  Jisung.

Jisung is still late and lazy. Whether it’s the first year or last year he is never gonna change.
On the second day of their third-year college, Jisung was called into the office
As we know he is late almost every day. He was on his way to meet the principal when he saw Minho with his father. His father was telling him to leave the college and join his business.  Their conversation turned into an argument Jisung stood there trying to listen there conversation oblivious of the fact that Minho can see him.

Minho said to his father with a stern voice “I will no longer live my life as per your wish .”
Of which his father replied with a concerned look “ I am doing this all for your sake only.” “for my sake, don’t joke around here, where were you till now?? suddenly realized that you have a son. You can forget but I can’t,  you left my mother to die. " Minho said thanking himself for not stuttering.  His father with a sad tone “ you were still a   kid back then to understand the situation“.
“Don’t worry I won’t tell anyone. If that’s what you’re worried about at least for now but I will not let you use me like a puppet. For everyone, you businessman which is true. You married my mum for money. Now you are trying to earn money from me also. Which type of businessman is doing this, great only I Think” His father was listening silently.
"And make sure next time you come as a father not as a businessman .’"Minho said coldly and left. His father also left with a  big sigh.

Jisung was standing near the staircase where Minho and his father were talking.
The next morning in the class something was off. The rumor was spread in the entire college about Minho leaving the college and his argument with his father. Indeed, rumors spread faster than fire.
