chapter 4

Enjoy~

everyone notice san's changing of behaviour. "what's wrong with that kid?" ask hongjoong to seonghwa. yes, even an ignorant person like hongjoong notices the changes.

seonghwa look at hongjoong. "you notices it too? its been almost a week he's like that" he says.

san avoid everyone. like, literally everyone. including his brother, jongho.

"hey, san. are you joining dinner tonight?" ask mingi before san exit their room. san thought for a while before shaking his head. "i have a part time today. you can eat first" he says with a smile.

"he rejects again?" ask yunho. mingi sadly nod. "is it because what we says the other day?" mingi ask. yunho just shake his head and ask mingi to hurry up so they wont be late to class.

"im worried, hongjoong" seonghwa says. "maybe its his puberty. you dont have to worry that much. they are not your kids, hwa" seonghwa puff his cheek at the answer. "im allowed to feel concern for my dormmate. unlike that one insomniac human being" seonghwa says.

before hongjong could hit seonghwa, the other close their room's door and quickly head to class.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"hey san, someone's looking for you" san smile and say thank you to one of his co-worker.

he nervously walk to the back door. "i thought i told you-" his words got cut off when he sees someone he unexpected to see, not the one he thought would come.

"wooyoung?" san ask confusedly. wooyoung just give a big smile. "i heard from mingi that you wont be back for dinner, so i ask yeosang to accompany me here" he says.

san look behind and smile at yeosang. both of them must be coming here by walk since he doesnt sees any transportation. "and why are you here?" he ask.

wooyoung grin before handing a bag, which san accept. "its your dinner. hwa hyung cooked earlier than we expected, so i asked, 'can i bring this to san', which he says yes. enjoy" he says. san feels so....

happy.

but his smile doesnt last long. 'they wont be as nice as they are now if they know what i really am'

"you dont have to do this, but thank you very much wooyoung, yeosang" both of his dormmate nod and wave goodbye before walking back to their dorm.

san look inside to see his favourite container and tumbler inside. "hwa hyung remember" he says with a shy smile.

'even for a while, im happy they want to be my friend'

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

right after wooyoung and yeosang come back, they gather at the dining table for dinner. the topic today, well.. of course choi san.

jongho has been playing his food with his fork for a while. "i.. have a question. does sannie hyung... only avoid me?" he ask.

the others look at him in unison before shaking their head. "i thought he only avoided us because we are too touchy with him" wooyoung says. "not we, you. i thought the same too" yeosang says. wooyoung mutter 'rude' under his breath with a pout.

"im pretty sure that's not the case. he likes it when i caress his hair" seonghwa says. mingi and yunho nod. "i thought its because of us..." mingi says in a low volume, but still able to be heard but the rest of them.

"and why is that?" seonghwa concernly ask. "well.... me and yunho ask if we can call san, sannie. like, if he is comfortable with it" mingi starts.

"its a cute nickname to be honest. so we thought he might like it. but its the opposite. he says no. and before we know, he started to avoid everyone" yunho says.
