By Your Side

Chapter 8

Everyone was gathered. Minhyuk asked for Illhoon, for which others said, they were not able to reach him.

Minhyuk said he wanted to talk to him before he left, but he was getting late anyway so he should leave.

After bidding their goodbyes and Happy journey wishes, everybody went back to their own work.

Changsub went back to his studio. After continuing his singing, he thought he should work on his new album. He was busy writing and composing his songs when he heard the door open. He looked up from his desk and turned around to see who interrupted him and entered his studio. Of course!! who else can it be, who can dare enter his room when he was working seriously without knocking... It is the one and only, the fearless Yook Sungjae.

"Hyung, are you busy now..." he asked casually at first but then changed his question "Why are you glaring at me like that?" Did he ask, looking confused? Changsub wonders sometimes, just what the younger thinks of him.

"Is there something on my face?" he asked, touching his face. Anything on my face!!! bullsh*t, Changsub cannot help but smirk at this, Sungjae not even realizing what he did or was doing, just being his regular self, entered the room and placed a hand on Changsub's shoulder and asked what he was doing.

"I am working, as you would care to see, and I was wondering, what do you take me for, like casually entering without even knocking, I am sure this is not a cafeteria, and I sure am not selling anything similar here, just trying to focus you know, before you decided to barge in," He said in a very sarcastic tone.

Sungjae just laughed sheepishly at that. " I really forgot hyung. It is not intentional, I swear. I don't know hyung, it happens only with you. It's not that I lack manners or anything, I always knock on every door I see except yours." He said as if that is a great reason and his face was as innocent as it can get.

"Are you planning on giving me any respect, as you do to every other person you see, or is it too late to ask?"

"Awww hyung, don't be like that. You know I love you right"

"Yeah right, What do you want? why are you here?"

"I came to ask if you are free now, Seonho is here, if you can work him"

"Yeah sure, where is he?"

"he is outside"

"Okay !!! Yes, we can start now, and what are you, his manager?"

"No.... but you know he likes me more than you"

"just get out"

"sure.. bye.. see ya later"

After Sungjae left, Changsub worked with Seonho on his song, helped him with some notes, and gave tips and all wherever he needed. Seonho was a quick learner and he picked up faster than Chansgub expected, and besides, he was very happy that he chose his song. They were almost done when our Sungjae, the fearless, came to his studio, just to check up on them, if they needed any assistance, or if they were doing good, once again without knocking, if I have to say. But this time, poor Seonho was startled at the sudden entry instead of Changsub.

Changsub was just busy shooting daggers at Sungjae with his eyes and silently plotting his perish in his mind. And thankfully this time, Sungjae realized this and excused himself saying he thought they would be finished by now. He didn't wait for any of their response and took a U-turn and ran out of the area as fast as he could.

A few hours later, Illhoon arrived. Finally, according to Chansgub, he thought that the kid is still either sleeping or must be having a terrible hangover that he won't be able to come today. He was thinking about winding up his work and going to the other studio where Sungjae and Hyunsik were, doing god knows what. He knew Hyunsik would be busy with his songs and all that stuff, but he never asked Sungjae why he was still at the company. He had no schedule today and once Minhyuk left, he could have left and gone home and taken some rest. But no, that kid seemed super energetic today.
