THE LINE BETWEEN US

Chapter 2

Year 2015...

"RAAGH!"

"WAAH- Aish kamjagi. Yah! Neo eodigaseo?"

Mingi ask the other. San, who currently scared his friend, chuckled before answering.

"Eomma has been receiving more request lately. Her cupcake seems to catch hundreds of eyes around. I just gotta help her with the delivery, that's why I wasn't able to come yesterday."

Today is Monday. it's been a month since the incident. It's been a month since Mingi last encountered his bullies. And it's been a month since they became bestfriend. For that short period, the two enjoyed their company. Going out frequently and going to each others house on week ends. Mingi had opened up to San and told him many different experiences and stories. San, who is also shy with stranger around, always acts recklessly and cutely around him. He even consider Mingi's dare to color his hair black.

"Ah~. Perks of being a good son-in-law...Oh! By the way. How was it with...you know...Woo."

Mingi replied. Part of their friendship is telling secrets. Mingi shared his and San can't be so selfish to not share his too. So even about his little puppy love towards a certain someone is not left unspoken. To be precise, Jung Wooyoung is the guy's name. Actually San was adopted when he was 11. He was only a kid that time so the poor memory of his past was hidden behind his fierceful mysterious mind.

"Oh-well. We're still the same. Same scenarios. Same routine. Wake up with his high pitched voice followed by his non-stop complain about me. I mean I like him. You know that. I like him so much but dude!.. hear me out. Remember I said that eomma is having hard time to deliver the orders and I was there to help. When he got home he starts complaining about me going out and in the house bringing things he doesn't even know about. I told him that I'm doing this for eomma. This is where it gets heated. He ask me why am I doing those stuff, I mean I don't have money to pay them back, at least helping them could be a payment for their kindness in bringing me in but Wooyoung doesn't seem to understand that. Rather he puts more oil in the fire and starts shouting nonsense things at me. Dude that hurts you know, hearing your crush calling you an 'attention seeker'."

San look at Mingi, who is busy laughing his head off from the story. Wooyoung and San is never on the same page. Though they live on the same house, since Wooyoung's parents are the one whe kept San, the two always find a way to fight, at least that's what Wooyoung is trying to do everyday.

"Well...I mean you are an attention seeker when comes to getting my food. Not gonna lie."

Said Mingi, cute chuckle resonates around the recent location they are in.

"Mwo?! Yah-"

The loud forceful opening of the metal door cut San off. The footstep nearing. And then suddenly the atmosphere feels thick when San heard a voice he kinda lowkey love to hear all the time.

"Yah Choi San!"

A high pitch voice echoed, luring San out. Tempting him to follow that, but he got another plan in his head smirking on his own. He wants to tease the new comer.  So instead of coming out, he and Mingi quickly hide under the abandoned teacher desk. Molds everywhere but San nonetheless cared about it.

"Yah Choi San! I know your here. Come out you asshole!"

The new presence and it's target made Mingi thought if he's even needed there. He look at San whose suppressing his chuckle. The footstep became louder as the two tried to stay very silent seeing the boy's nicely polished school shoes covered feet. After a minute waiting, the boy suddenly lift his leg and put his body on top of the table where the two bestfriend were hiding. The two finding it hard to breathe considering the new comer is very close to them now.
