SVT FF: CHOI SEUNGCHEOL'S SISTER

06

Seungcheol kept glancing at Mingyu who was silently playing with his phone. He could not read what was in his mind. He always being a professional. Acting like nothing in front of the camera but behind he was the opposite.

"What's wrong with him?" Joshua asked when Seungcheol was staring at the boy. Seungcheol just shrugged it off. Mingyu didn't say anything whenever he asked.

"Okay, let's end this up. You guys can go back to the hotel." The choreographer said when he realized that it was already late. All of them thanked him for a hard time with them.

Mingyu was the first one who went out of the studio. Followed by the maknae and then the others. Their manager drives them to the hotel where they are staying. When arrived at the hotel, Mingyu didn't say anything and just went to his shared room with Dino and Wonwoo.

Hoshi and Seungkwan looked at each other and turned to see their leader.

"Should we tell Scoups?" Seungkwan whispers to Hoshi. The elder didn't want them to fight and he just them be. Telling the truth might break their friendship.

"Don't interfere with their problem. Let them know by themselves." Hoshi said and walked to the elevator. Suddenly, all of them got a group chat notification. It was Seungcheol who wanted to have a meeting.

"Mingyu hyung?" Dino spoke to see the elder was laying down on the bed with his eyes closed.

"I'm tired and I going to sleep. Tell them that I'm sorry." Mingyu said pulling the comforter to continue his sleep. When he hears the door closed, he sighs and opens his eyes. He did not smile at all except in front of the camera.

"Why do I have this feeling? She only sees me as a brother. Nothing more." He talks to himself. His phone suddenly lights up. He grabs it and reads the notification.

'I miss you. Please talk to me.'

It was Y/N's message. He didn't reply to her but just read it.

'I'm sorry to say that to you. I've never hated you. Don't be mad at me, oppa. Please answer my call. I can't sleep without hearing your voice.' Her message said. Just then he got the call. He was hesitant to pick up the call but he couldn't see she was like that.

"Hello."
"Oppa. I'm sorry, okay? Don't ignore me." Mingyu was surprised to hear her voice. She was crying, he thought.
"Why are you crying?" His soft voice makes her a bit calm.
"I'm not crying. We played games and I was lost. Seungmin punishes me for eating spicy ramen. It's so spicy, oppa. I can't feel my tongue." She complains which makes Mingyu chuckle a little.

"Did you just laugh at me? Did you forgive me already?" She asked. Mingyu sighed and sat on the bed.

"I've never been mad at you. I just want to put some barriers between us. I'm sorry to do so but you should think about your future. Y/N, one day you and I will go our separate ways. I just want you to get used to being away from us." He explains. Y/N was silent listening to him.

"Why? Am I disturbing you?"
"No. It just... You should have a boyfriend. And you will understand that. Well, I just came back from practice, and I'm a bit tired." He said trying to not be rude.

"Okay. It's good to hear your voice. Oppa... I miss you. Don't ever be mad at me, please." She said with a soft voice. It makes him fall in love with her more.

"Yeah. I miss you too."
"Good night and dream of me." She said with a giggle. Mingyu chuckled at her cuteness and hung up the call.

"Why are you so cute?" He said looking at his phone.

"Who are you talking to?" Seungmin suddenly asked. He also could see that her mood changed from sad to happy. He stares at her with curiosity.

"My oppa. Wae?" She asked back. Seungmin just stared at her with a little smirk.

"Or... Boyfriend instead." He teases her. Her cheeks blush at the sudden attack.

"No! We are not dating- I mean, I..." She strutted and felt a little hot with the word 'boyfriend'. Seungmin kept staring at her making her feel a bit nervous.

"You like him, right?" He asked taking a seat next to her. They were sitting in the field looking at their classmate. Seungmin noticed that she always looked gloomy and sometimes she didn't look like herself.

"Like who?" She asked. Seungmin nudged her and leaned back while looking at the blue sky.

"That 'oppa'. Is he your brother's friend? So, that means he is older than us." He sits again when realizes that.

"He is six years older than us. He might look childish but he was mature. Positive thinking and always nice to me." She said smiling wide. Seungmin could see that she was happy. He loves to see her smile like that.

"So, is he the reason why you don't look happy lately?" He suddenly asks.

"It just... I overreacted. You know I'm a bit sensitive and I took his words too much. I accidentally mad at him." She explains. Seungmin didn't know that she was a very sensitive person.

"I know that you are sensitive but I didn't know that you are an overreacting person. What did he say that made you mad at him?"

"Well, I didn't do what he said. I mean, he always orders me to do something I don't like." He complains about Mingyu.

"Like?"

"He didn't let me eat spicy food."
"That's because you can't hold it. You always have hiccups when eating spicy food and it hurts your throat."
"He forced me to eat porridge even though I don't like it." Seungmin rolled his eyes at her words.
"You were sick that time. You've told me that before."
"He didn't even let me watch late late-night movie."
"Woah, you are so unbelievable. Don't you remember Mr. Kim was angry because you were sleeping in his class? He calls you many times, but you don't wake up at all until the bell rings." Seungmin said.

"Are you my friend or his friend?" Y/N glared and crossed her arms at him. Seungmin didn't care about it.

"I didn't even know him but it doesn't mean I will be on your side. You should learn what is caring, concern, and protective. The things that you say about him show how much he cares about you more than your brother." He said looking back at the field. Y/N sighed and looked at him with soft eyes.

"You do know me more than the other." She said.

"There is more you did not know about me." He said looking back at her with a smile.
"And there is more about me you didn't know, Seungmin. Stop claiming that you know me very well."

"When you like someone, you will study more about that person. Trust me it's worth it." He said as he stood up and extended his hand to her.
"Let's go to the other." He added as Y/N took his hand with her.
