【CHAPTER NINETEEN】
ˋyouˊ


When the coast was clear, Jeongwoo finally got out of the comfort room as he looked left and right to check if the latter was still around.

He breathed out in relief when he saw no one in the living room.

“Glad he was already in his room” he whispered to himself and sat freely alone on the couch.

“He confuses me too, does he think he's the only one feeling that way?” Jeongwoo again told himself and tried lying down on the couch, forgetting what happened earlier.

Sadly, he can't still sleep. His eyes darted on a guitar standing quietly on the corner of the living room.

He let out a long sigh as he stood up and got his guitar. He strummed gently on their strings. It's been a while since Jeongwoo played the guitar. Probably before he became Junkyu's personal assistant.

Maybe because he became more busier on work that he forgot about his guitar's existence.

He smiled as he remember his favorite old singers. Jeongwoo liked to explore old songs because it helps him to relax. And luckily, he stumbled upon his new favorite comfort singers.

Carpenters.

He start strumming his guitar. Aside from it was his favorite band, it was the first song he learned from the guitar.

“You are the one who makes me happy, when everything else turns to grey” he sang the first lines as he smiled.

“Yours is the voice that wakes me mornings, and sends me out into the day”

Without the younger knowing, a specific japanese young actor peeked through the door frame, seeing the younger korean's back facing him but still hearing the guitar and most especially, his voice.

His voice that is like a sweet and mellow sound on his ear. It was very pleasant to hear and he would be glad listening to them all day.

“You are the crowd that sits quiet listening to me, and all the mad sense that I make” the japanese young actor can't even hide his smile as he was listening to him.

“I didn't know he can sing” he said to himself like he was taking notes everything he finds out about the personal assistant.

“You are one of the few things worth remembering”

Oh to have the younger sing for him will be his new mission.

”And since it's all true, how could anyone mean more to me than you?” the japanese young actor's smile became more even wider realizing what the lyrics of the song he was singing's message.

“How could anyone mean more to me than you?” he asked indirectly to thr unaware male.

“Haruto? What are you peeking there?” Haruto almost jumped from where he was standing when he heard a familiar voice behind him.

“H-hey haha, w-why are y-you still a-awake hehe?” he nervously asked his older friend still lying on his bed.

“Shouldn't be me to ask you that? What are you doing there?” Junkyu was still obviously not in his clear mind and all he cares is why Haruto peeking from the door frame.

Of course he still haven't think that his japanese dear friend was admiring someone from a far.

“Oh I was just checking if it still rains outside hehe” he tried his very best not to stutter and sound more convincing.

“Oh okay, you should rest now. It's already late at night”

“I will, thanks for the concern”

“Okay, good night”

“Good night”

Well, guess who's sleeping with a good mood and smile on his face.

The loud sound of rain drops can still be heard when Jeongwoo open his eyes and smell the scent of bacon and eggs early at the morning.

Jeongwoo jolted up from the couch and turned to look on the kitchen.

“Hey Jeongwoo, I cooked for the both of you. You should call Haruto so we can eat all together” Junkyu beamed as he lift the spatula up.

Jeongwoo, who was still mentally awake went to the room to wake the japanese us while scratching his eyes.

He saw the japanese young actor was still soundly asleep so he immediately pulled the duvet and called for him.

“Hey, wake up” he said with his morning deep voice.

“I said wake up!” he shouted a bit louder enough for the japanese to hear him.

“In 3 seconds, wake up or I'll throw my slippers on your face” he threatens.

The korean was cluelessly looking at the japanese when the latter suddenly lift up both of his arms.

“What the hell are you doing?” he cluelessly asked.

“Help me” the latter was referring on standing up because... He just wanted to do it lol.

“What?”

“Help me stand up, my back hurts” he said as his alibi when in fact his back was 100% alright.

“Why does your back hurts?” the younger asked.

Instead of replying, he just heard the japanese whined while still his arms are in the air waiting for the korean. In which, Jeongwoo's face turned into cringed by that sound.

Jeongwoo sat on the bed as he was about to pull the japanese's hands up when the japanese was more quicker than him and pulled him closer to him as  he wrapped his arms around his neck.

The korean's eyes widened at the sudden movement from the actor.

“Pull me up” he whispered to Jeongwoo's ears with a hidden grin on his lips.

Jeongwoo immediately gulped at the sensational feeling when he whispered on his ear and pulled the older up as he immediately removed his hands around him.

“What the fuck are you doing? Go outside and eat your breakfast, douche bag” Jeongwoo said in annoyance and left the japanese alone in the room.

“I made him panic pfft” he said as if he succeeded his plan.

[Cheers to people who still listens to old songs!]
