The Truth Untold

Chapter 16 - Come Be My Teacher

...

-'' I hear Yeonjun has a new crush.''

Kang Taehyun leans back on the wall behind him, a warm hotteok in his hands as he and Jungkook stood on the rooftop of the hospital. It was Taehyun's hard-earned break. Jungkook came to bring him food after he lost the bet against him on some basketball game they watched together and was now keeping him company as he ate.

Jungkook took a sip of coffee from a small white paper cup and grinned at the memory of the two men. He chuckles. – '' Oh, you should see them. Noona is going mad, but I think she is secretly shipping them.''

Taehyun snorts loud, truly unbecoming sound for the young surgeon. – '' I bet she does.'' – He says, taking a bite of the delicious pancake. – '' I've never heard Yeonjun so excited.'' – He gives Jungkook his side glance. – '' And, trust me, I've seen him animated so many times before.''

-'' Was he always this excited?'' – Jungkook wanted to know.

Taehyun chews his bite carefully, swallows it, and then answers. – '' The first time I met him in medical school he was even worse. He used to play with the skeleton, dressing him up.'' – He chuckles at the memory. – '' He used to get in all sorts of mischief, but he was always brilliant so the teachers let him get away with many things. I think it's his charm, I guess.'' – He takes another bite.

-'' When did he change his mind about the medicine?''

Taehyun knit his brows together as he tried to remember the exact period. – '' I think it was in the second year. He discovered forensics and didn't look back.'' – He takes another mouthful.

Jungkook smiled. – '' Which is why he ended up in the police, go figures.'' - He recalls something Yeonjun mentioned once. -'' You were roommates in college?''

-'' Mhm...'' – Taehyun finishes his bite. – '' I wanted to go crazy with him at first, but then he met Beomgyu and decided that we should find a flat together. I must admit, that was one of his more brilliant ideas.''

-'' Beomgyu seems nice. I met him only once when he came to pick Jun up. He ended up fixing Noona's neck.''

-'' Yeah, Beom has hands of gold.'' – Taehyung agrees with softness.

-'' Well aren't you a lucky bunch, having his golden hands so close and ready.'' – Jungkook teases, but Taehyun just chuckles.

-'' I ask his help only when I'm feeling really bad, and that's so rare. But Yeonjun got himself fined because he asked for a massage daily.''

-'' No! Beomgyu really takes his money?'' – Jungkook asked in surprise.

-'' Oh, yes. It was the only way for him to stop bothering him. I mean, if he really is in pain, Beom will always help, but Jun just wants cuddles, get attention and stuff...so we both told him to find a boyfriend instead.''

Jungkook laughs at that. – '' Well, he might have found him already.'' – He says, thinking of Soobin.

-'' Is he playing hot and cold with a poor fella?'' – Taehyun asks knowingly.

Jugkook nods, and Taehyun shakes his head. – '' It's all insecurity, I think. He can't believe that someone is actually falling on his mating rituals.''

--'' Dammit, Tae, you are killing me.'' – Jungkook tossed his head back and laugh at this.

-'' I'm serious.'' – Taehyun chuckles. – '' He gets foolish when he likes someone.''
