This day could not have been more boring for the handsome Korean. For quite some time now, Choi Soobin had just been lying in bed with his arm tucked under his head and his not-so-good mood written all over his face. With a deep sigh, he scrolled through his Instagram posts, listening to the bass-heavy music coming through his expensive speakers. He hummed along quietly, but didn't even hear himself through the volume. Still, despite the bored look on his face, it seemed pleasant for him to sit alone in the room for a change. For a change, he had neither Kai's loud organ nor Taehyun's deep voice breathing down his neck and enjoyed being completely alone.

Of course, he couldn't help his thoughts from drifting back to the conversation with Beomgyu.

This was the one thing that just wouldn't let him rest.

I wonder if the popular black-haired man knew how Byulyi felt and just didn't want to tell Soobin.

Instantly, that one conversation with Beomgyu popped into his head. The one that had spoiled his evening at the birthday party. The one in which Byulyi had simply acted as if she didn't have a clue what he was talking about. The look she gave him had burned itself into his memory and now made his stomach grumble.

Had he scared her off with his confession?

After all, they had known each other for a long time and he had only had bad experiences when one revealed one's feelings to a good friend.

Would she now avoid him?

Or not want to have anything to do with him anymore?

So many questions formed in Soobin's mind and he also wondered if he shouldn't just ask her about it. Even if it would be awkward to face her afterwards. A deep sigh left the young Korean's full lips, but he continued to scroll through the feed until he came across a particular post that made his heart stop for a few seconds. Immediately, the thoughts surrounding the girl were gone and he now sat bolt upright in his bed. With his big, dark eyes he stared at the screen and even after several minutes he could not trust his senses.

It was simply impossible.

Inconceivable, inexplicable.

Choi Soobin never thought he would have palpitations over a simple photo. Because in this picture, a post by the notorious scandal account ImHorizon, his little brother was clearly visible.

Dino was quite clearly recognizable and Soobin wondered how this could be possible. After all, he hadn't seen him at the birthday party. And it was clearly Yeonjun's set up in this photo. True, it hadn't necessarily been posted the same night the party had taken place, and Soobin didn't recognize any of the people who were also still in the picture. Still, he was one hundred percent sure that this was Yeonjun's interior. The colorful lights enveloped the face of the student, who was still in his first year, and made him look even younger.

And his older brother, looking at the picture in great detail, truly could not believe what he was seeing.

Dino had been at the party without permission and with a lie that he had told Soobin. Soobin had thought that the 21-year-old was at home with his two best friends.
