Chapter Nine

“So, hyung. You haven’t chosen yet on which of my artworks you’ll buy?”

“Write an explanation at the back of one of your paintings. And I’ll buy that one.” Kyungsoo answered Sehun.

Sehun lightly tapped his shoulder. “Look, hyung. The thing is, you’re always looking for obvious meanings for everything. Can’t you at least look for hints? For hidden meanings?”

“It’s just a waste of time.”

“No wonder you’re still alone.” Sehun picked up two champagne flutes from a waiter who passed by. “Here. Get drunk. Maybe if alcohol fills your mind, it will become somewhat clear.”

He took the champagne from Sehun and took a gulp from it. “Sehun, is he… still here?”

“Who? Chanyeol hyung? Yes. And in fact, women are flocking to him over there.”

His heart is rebelling while he downed the remaining alcohol in his glass.

Sehun just chuckled. “You know, Kyungsoo hyung. If you’re jealous, why don’t you go over there and mark your territory?”

“I don’t want to meddle with those cheap people.”

“Everyone who falls in love becomes cheap.”

“I’m not cheap.”

“Hmm, good thing you are admitting your real feelings to Chanyeol hyung. That’s nice. But nothing will happen if you just sulk here and let everyone take your boyfriend away from you.”

Of course he doesn’t want people to snatch Chanyeol away from him. But who is he to stake a claim on him? Chanyeol doesn’t even like him.

“Maybe he’s happier that way.”

“How can you be so sure?”

“Sehun, he doesn’t like me. Don’t tell me you didn’t notice that because you are the one who’s with me when I planned this whole ‘seducing Chanyeol’ thing. I did everything that I can, right? But what happened? He just kissed me and told me that we can never be more than friends.” Kyungsoo wants to cry again. He took a drink from his glass but he realized it is empty. He grabbed Sehun’s glass and took a drink from it.

“Did you ask him why?”

“I’m brave, Sehun. But I’m not greedy. What I heard is enough. I don’t want to add any more pain in my heart.”

“So, you’re really giving up. Well, if that’s the case, you go with me.”

“I don’t want to. I’m going home.”

“You go with me for a second.” Sehun held his hand and pulled it. “Let’s just say goodbye to Chanyeol hyung.”

“You’re leaving your exhibit?”

“Oh, right. You’re the only one who will say goodbye.”

He tried to take his hand back but Sehun is stronger. Damn this brat. “Why would I have to say goodbye to him? Is he my father? Sehun, what are you doing?”

“Well, I don’t know. Maybe I just want to know if you don’t really like him anymore. It’s because I want to help you with your recovery.”

Kyungsoo didn’t try to fight Sehun when they saw where Chanyeol is. Well, he can easily locate Chanyeol because he is the tallest guy in that area, and the most handsome as well with his crisp black suit. Maybe it’s also because of the women surrounding him and just giggling at whatever he say.

Kyungsoo held at the pillar near him. “We might just bother him, Sehun.”

“Of course not. Don’t worry, those coquettes can’t do anything because I’m the star for tonight. Chanyeol hyung!”
