"Have you heard about the press conference that S-group made yesterday?"

Hyunjin asks his father, who stops having breakfast to respond something. Hyunjin takes a bite of an egg roll. He somehow told his father that he will handle the situation of stock prices going down. And he wasn't asking, he's showing the proof that he did what he said. His father seems to know what hyunjin really wanted to hear.

"you did great. Now, the company's stock prices are back at a normal rate."

His father said, proudly. This was the first time he got a compliment from his father. However he didn't show any emotion, he was glad.

"Should I take you to your college?"

Hyunjin refused his father's offer immediately.

"no need, I already called secretary lee a few moments ago."

His father nodded at his reason. And then, he left to work. Hyunjin was about to put the dishes in the right place after he finished breakfast when a voice comes to stop him.

"Mr. Hwang! Mr.Hwang!"

It was minho. Hyunjin gave him the passcode to enter his house.

"Leave it to me! you should get ready for class by now!"

Minho rashly said as if hyunjin haven't done anything. But he didn't try to argue, just watched minho washing dishes.

"Did your offer for S-group go well? I mean, did they include what you said on news?"

Hyunjin leans on the table, putting his hands on both sides of the pocket.

"yeah, they did. the stock prices are at the normal rate now."

Minho smiled at him, while still washing the dishes.

"I'm glad to hear it as your secretary."

At that, hyunjin scoffed.

"As my secretary, why don't you check the news? you should even watch the press conference of that mansion! isn't it, secretary lee?"

Minho closed his mouth with his hand to stop smiling.

"ahhh that's because.... uhm... I was busy, searching for a part-time job!"

Hyunjin smiled, knowing it was a lie. He can say it by the way minho moved his eyes to the left. Science said that you can know when someone is telling a lie if they put their eyes to the left while talking. He might not like the college or the subjects he is learning, but he can't deny the fact that he is interested in science and technology.

"well, should I help you? I have a lot of connections."

Hyunjin questioned even though he knows the game minho's playing. Minho seems to be panicked. His widened eyes tell it all.

"huh? no no no! you don't have to!"

Minho said harshly while putting the organized plates in the cabinet.

"And! why are you not preparing yet? Even I'm finished washing dishes!"

Hyunjin rolled his eyes. His college starts at seven-thirty but it's already eight in the morning.

"I don't go early when the first class is math time in the timetable. It reduces my ability of thinking and energy."

Hyunjin explains the reason. He just hates math. He gave up on math a few years ago. Minho just let out an 'aniii'.

"then, why did you call me so early!? you called at six in the morning so I rashly come here thinking you are late!"

He raised his eyebrows when he heard minho slightly shouting at him.

"I don't know, I just woke up early today and I got bored."

Hyunjin slightly chuckled when minho lets out a sigh of disappointment. He leads minho to the living room, making him sit on a sofa.

"So, why do you don't like math? I liked math the most when I was a student."

Minho asked as he sat down on the sofa. Hyunjin sat on the opposite sofa, so now, they are face-to-face sitting.

"Secretary lee.."

"Yes?"

"I'm going to become a businessman. My father always said a businessperson had to put their profits first and others second."

Minho focused on his body language (fingers movement to be exact) when he is explaining.

"So the same goes for the reason I hate math, the math won't help me do deals, compromises, or other business things with people."

Hyunjin smirked at the end, and minho nodded but he still has a question.

"Then, what about science? I used to like science too."

"Well, in that case, I like science since it can help me scientifically understand people and their feelings."

'Just like I knew you were lying a few moments ago.'

"But I don't trust 100 percent in science. I mean I like science and its logic but I don't fully trust them."

That was the time minho realized that quiet ones have very deep thoughts about almost everything. Hyunjin looks like just a quiet boy in school but his thoughts are very very loud and deep.

They spent one hour talking about each other's interests which made minho more confused about hyunjin because he likes things differently from others for his own reasons. For example, he said he hates surprises which most people like, and some people like minho feel nothing about them.

It was nine when minho drove hyunjin to his college. He learned that hyunjin can swim well, and skate. Also, the fact he enjoys playing video games, he even offered minho to play together with him in his free time.

"oh, I have a vital thing to tell you in the evening. make sure to come early, okay?"

'Here we go again.'

"okay. I'll."

Why can't he tell it right now???? Leaving minho very curious about it, what is it? A vital thing? Is that very important?
