Minho is very stunned by the situation he had this morning. He met the REAL CEO that's not hyunjin. The CEO said hyunjin was his son, and just supervise there for a day because he was not able to come. Minho remembers himself standing in front of the CEO without a word cuz of a sudden shock.

And he does remember the CEO asked him to take hyunjin home from college. He just gently nodded and take the car key the CEO gave him. He also gets some drinks for himself and seojun on his way to college since seojun is in the same class as hyunjin.

But he didn't buy a drink for hyunjin because he could be a picky person, minho thinks.

'what if he doesn't like or has allergic to banana milk?'

This thought stopped him from getting a drink for hyunjin. After that, he immediately drives straight to the college. He fixes his hair and necktie for a minute before getting into the college gate.

"minho-hyung!!!"

He heard the voice calling him after some minutes he gets out of the car. He smiles at seojun who is running toward him as soon as he sees minho. He hugged him after greeting him.

"did the day go well, seojun-ah?"

Minho hugged back and said in a soft voice. He can feel seojun's smile on his shoulder.

"the same as usual hyung, why are you here by the way?"

Seojun asked, letting go of minho from the hug.

"ah right! hyunjin! I come here to take hyunjin to his home."

"and! look what I got for you!"

"oh!? banana milk?? gosh, how lovely you are! thank you, thank you. it has been a really long time since I drink the banana milk that you bought me!"

Minho just smiled in reply, watching seojun immediately drink it. He also picks up the straw and put it in his banana milk. Before he takes a sip, he feels someone's eyes looking at him. But didn't realize who it was. He takes a sip.

"Aren't you the one who has to drive me home?"

Minho got chills at the voice coming from behind. He didn't know hyunjin will show up like that.

"Minho-hyung, I'll get going by now. see you at home!"

He hears the voice saying goodbye from seojun, he also did the same and looks back at hyunjin while taking a sip again from his drink.

"let's go to the car then, it's at the parking place."

Minho said without making eye contact with him.

________________

The way he hugged, the way he smiled, the way he gave a drink, to another person, not him. When he got near to him, hyunjin wanted to know if he bought a drink for him or not. But he tried to stay calm until they reached the car. Minho sits in the driver's seat and hyunjin's in the passenger seat.

"where is my drink?"

The elder froze and stops taking sips from his straw. Not surprised, hyunjin takes his banana milk. He can feel the taste of the elder's lips mixing with the flavor of banana milk.

The elder looks so shocked, blinking more than five times fastly.

"what do you think you are doing, young mister!?"

Minho raises his voice a bit. Hyunjin can hear the mixed voice of upset and sadness. It makes hyunjin rethink if he did the right or not. He felt the urge now, seeing minho's pouting lips with disappointed eyes.

"I will get you the new one, but now I'm kind of..."

He lost words for a while. He did that without thinking it twice because,

'jealousy'

"thirsty, so"

Minho sighs.

"you don't have to, young mister. I'll just buy it for myself."

He starts to drive away from the college. Hyunjin keeps looking at his expression from the back camera. minho didn't seem to realize. He cuts the silence with a fake cough.

"you are now my secretary so, of course, I need to care about my secretary! I'll get five more banana milk bottles for you. How about that??"

"your....secretary?"

Hyunjin is kind of scared of getting denied. He has never been refused or denied in his whole life. But he is a little bit ready to accept if he doesn't want to be.

"yup, don't you want to? I need someone that I could rely on."

"It's okay if you don't want to."

A little bit quiet when he said the last sentence.

"Why do you want to rely on me? I'm just an ordinary person. I don't even have a family.."

'that's the reason, I mean, to get close for the bet! for the bet! just for the bet!, is it really?'

"I don't too, so we should trust each other and rely on each other. That way, we can be strong partners in this dangerous world."

He doesn't even know where that nonsense comes from though.

"But your father.."

"Step-father, exactly."

The awkward silence between them has started.

"I mean if your s-step father lets me then, I can.."

Hyunjin's eyes got wide for a while from the excitement he gets. He smiled a little bit.

"I already told him."
