Mingyu was at a cafe looking at the couples infront of him bitterly.Why did he agreed to join this 'hang out' that clearly looks like a triple date and him being the fifth wheel.How did he ended up here in the first place?

Earlier...

"Yah!Kim Mingyu!!!!",a loud voice beamed at the restaurant's entrance,making Mingyu closed his eyes in embarassment.He came out from the kitchen and was greeted by his friends."Let's hang out.It's been a long time since we went out.",Seokmin,the owner of the loud voice earlier told him."No.I have work.",he reasoned and was about to go back inside."We'll take care of it.Now go to your friends so you won't be lonely.",his mother blocked him."But all of them met their soulmates!They're gonna make me their thirdwheel,fourth,fifth...Aish!",he groaned,took his apron off and stormed to his friends.

Present...

"Oh...Mingyu we forgot you are actually here.",finally Minghao noticed.He glared at them and the couples only laughed at him."Our lonely Mingyu is bitter!",Jeonghan teased whilst clinging to his husband."Yeah,and you decided to invite me in your triple date.",he spoke with sarcasm."We can find you someone who you can hook up with.",Seokmin suggested."What the hell!No!",he slammed his head on the table."I have an idea.Let's go to Mingyu's place and throw him a party!",Mingyu almost wanted to jump at a 30th floor building at Jeonghan's suggestion."Noooo!!!You guys are gonna get me kicked out of my apartment!",he protested but was only dragged by his friends who cheered at the idea.

"Kim Mingyu!Tsk...Your neighbours had been complaining about the loud noises in your room yesterday.You know that I don't give second chances.So you better find a new place in one week.",his landlord complained then left him after he apologized.He sighed and went to find a new apartment and not telling it to his friends.

Wonwoo went out of his apartment room and locked the door.He was going to his class early.He accidentally kicked one of the boxes lying on the floor.His landlord didn't informed him that someone is moving in today."Oh...Hello!I'm...I...Uhmm...I'm Mingyu!Kim Mingyu...Your new neighbour!",the guy holding a box similar to the one he kicked, introduced himself."I'm Jeon Wonwoo.Nice to meet you Mingyu...I have to go.",he smiled to the guy who looked at him wide eyed.Is there something with him that made his new neighbour look at him like he had seen a ghost?

Mingyu stared at the retreating figure of teacher Jeon or Wonwoo as he felt his heart calm down.He tried to focus on moving his things but teacher Jeon still stayed in his mind.He should thank his friends for making a mess in his old apartment.Once he was finally done,he stared at the pile of open and closed boxes.He decided to take a walk for awhile and go back to his new apartment to finish his day.He still thought he forgot something though.

"Ok class!You may go now.Goodbye!",Wonwoo dismissed and his students waved at him goodbye."Bye Uncle!",Jiyoung waved at him,holding Jihoon's hand who also bidded him goodbye.He smiled at the two whilst holding the papers his students passed to him."Teacher Jeon.Can I stay here and wait for my uncle?",Junhyung asked him and he nodded with a smile.The kid is always the last one to be picked up.But he knows that the boy's parents are always busy.

He already finished cleaning the classroom and he saw that the boy was still there,sitting in a chair whilst looking at the window."Junhyung?Is your uncle not coming?",he asked the boy who turned to him with a pout."He forgot me!",the boy cried and Wonwoo immedietly went over to the boy to comfort him."Maybe your uncle was just-",he was cut off when someone appeard on the door.The tall guy was catching his breath whilst Junhyung's eyes lit up."Yay!Uncle Mingyu!",the boy beamed and went to hug his uncle with a huge smile."Mingyu?I didn't know that Junhyung was your nephew?",Wonwoo started and saw how the other flinched on  hearing his name.

"Yeah...I usually picked him up outside the school's gate.So we don't cross paths I guess...",Mingyu who gained his confidence replied."Let's go home now!",Junhyung pulled his sleeves.He waved gooodbye at teacher Jeon who smiled at him.

When Mingyu went home after he dropped Junhyung to his parents,he almost face palmed himself in embarassment.So he decided to take a shower to forget it for awhile.He went outside the bathroom fully dressed and a knock was heard.He opened it to see his new neighbour beaming at the door."Hello!Since you are new here...It would be rude if I don't welcome you.",Wonwoo spoke with a smile on his face."I brought food.",he added whilst showing Mingyu the containers he was holding."Oh...Come in!Would you like to join me?",the taller offered(which Mingyu noticed their height difference)."No thank you.Here take it.",Wonwoo handed him the containers he is holding,and left after bidding goodbye.

Mingyu opened the containers to see a slice of cake,kimchi and chicken.He noticed a note on one of the covers.He took it then read it.

'Welcome and hope you enjoy:)
×××-×××-×××-××'
-Wonwoo

He smiled as he stared at the paper and pasted it on his wall.He also saved the number from the note,knowing it's Wonwoo's.After eating the delicious dinner he got from his neighbour,he decided to sleep since he have to work tomorrow.Thinking about the things that he would also do and maybe invite Wonwoo at lunch as a thank you.'Only a thank you',he facepalmed as he closed his eyes.
