“What's with that face?” Riki asked as soon as he sees Seonwoo approaching the car.

He was spacing out, frowning—glaring at specifically no one. Seonwoo was just thinking.

“Yah,” Riki poked the older cheeks, “I'm asking you a question.”

Seonwoo gave Riki a lool, “Can we please get home first?”

Riki raises an eyebrow, “Why? Did something happen? Did Jay-hyung declined your resignation?”

Seonwoo glared at him.

“Fine,” Riki gave up, opening the car door for his...roommate?

The drive home went silent. Riki have been giving Seonwoo multiple glances, this behavior was new and Riki's totally getting nervous about it.

“Ugh.”

“Who am I gonna recommend?”

“I don't know anyone.”

Riki continued pre-heating their dinner, while at the same time listening to Seonwoo's rants.

“All my friends in school have their own life now, who else is there?”

Apparently, Jay gave Seonwoo a week to find a substitute for his job before he could leave. If Seonwoo couldn't find one, he could not go with Riki.

“Riki!”

Riki looked up, meeting Seonwoo's eyes.

“Do you know anyone?” Seonwoo asked, voice sounding mad.

Riki quickly shook his head.

Seonwoo rolled his eyes and leave the kitchen again. Riki goes back to watching the fire out of the stove.

“Riki?”

Riki looked back up, finding a smiling Seonwoo in front of him.

“Can you locate a person for me?” Seonwoo asked.

“Who?” Riki asked curiously.

“A friend I met before I was hired by Mr. Park, Yang Jungwon.”

Riki raised an eyebrow.

Yang Jungwon?

A/N: Anyone who could guess Jungwon's character here? lol
