How Did Love Become Love (Minwon FF)

Chapter 28 Confession

While walking back on his way to the dance studio, Wonwoo couldn't help but wonder.

'Why did Mingyu go back? It's not like him to give up so easily'.

Wonwoo knows Mingyu too well just like Mingyu knows him. He knows that when Mingyu is persistent about something nothing can sway him easily. They both are just like fire and ice with the personality that oppose each other but also like two poles of magnet too that attracts each other.

In the past they had many arguments because of Wonwoo not wanting to share something but Mingyu wanting to know it. He would pester him all day to get what he wants, though he wasn't like that with everyone and it could also be said that he only shows his raw true self to Wonwoo.

At that time, Wonwoo actually used to like this kind of imposing Mingyu, also as Mingyu used to impose himself only on Wonwoo and nobody else, Wonwoo used to think he was special, he used to think that Mingyu's behavior was like a lover who has a right on him due to which he was being willful towards his lover. So right now he is really surprised to find that Mingyu is nowhere in his sight.

He even took the pain to take the detour from the way to the studio and ran away elsewhere because he won't be able to run anywhere if Mingyu was to catch up with him near or in the studio.

He was a few steps away from entering the building of the studio when his phone rang in his pants pocket. He took it out and saw that the caller was Jiwan.

Oh yes! Because of Mingyu he was late for practice now! This is why Jiwan must be calling him, to ask him where he is. He is the main dancer in their team so they won't start the practice without him. He thought he was about to get scolded by Jiwan so he guiltily picked up his phone even though he would reach the studio in few minutes.

He was expecting a female voice to start complaining right away when he held his phone to his ear but unexpectedly he heard a male voice, a very familiar male voice.

Wonwoo's 'Hello' along with the apology for coming late got struck in his throat.

He heard Mingyu's a bit distant but clear voice saying, "No, no, no, why are you calling him? I don't want to question him. I want to give him some time to sort things out in his mind. I want him to willingly tell me everything when he is ready". Mingyu seemed to be painstakingly explaining his intension to whomever he was talking with.

Wonwoo was stunned in place when he heard this. So Mingyu was in their dance studio and it seems like he doesn't know that the call has already connected.

Mingyu wants to give him time. He is being considerate towards Wonwoo but hearing this Wonwoo didn't feel reassured at all instead he is starting to feel more worried. He still doesn't know if Mingyu likes him or not! So he doesn't want Mingyu to know anything yet. It would be too embarrassing for Wonwoo if Mingyu were to know the things Wonwoo had done and it would be a disaster if Mingyu gets to know about it even though he has no romantic feelings for Wonwoo!

Yes they both had kissed each other and have also made out in the room and even though Mingyu remembers everything this time it doesn't mean that he didn't do it in the heat of moment. He still doesn't know why was Mingyu at that bar yesterday. Was he brought there by any of his friend or he came by himself ?

Wonwoo had many questions rising in his mind one by one. Though he knows that there's a possibility that Mingyu likes him but his mind refuses to believe this possibility even if it's as  clear as a day. He just doesn't want to get his hopes up, he doesn't want to be disappointed because of his expectations so he won't believe it until he hears it from Mingyu himself.

Though Wonwoo's thoughts kept running, his legs didn't stop for long as well and he kept walking in long strides. He was so engrossed in his thinking and listening to the conversation on his phone that he forgot to take the elevator and instead  took stairs, skipping one step at a time and climbing up rapidly.

The conversation kept flowing through the phone as Wonwoo heard Jiwan speak, "Kim Mingyu, you are really something. If you really wanted to give Wonwoo time to think then why are you here? Why are you asking me these questions?! You don't want to harass Wonwoo so you are here to harass me!"

"What kind of enmity do you have with me?!!" Mingyu's voice was clearly expressing how baffled he was feeling. "Why do you always seem to think so negatively of me?"

"What? Did I say anything wrong?"

"I'm not here to harass you. I just want to see if you know anything about Wonwoo hyung that I don't know yet."

Wonwoo's heart skipped a beat when he heard this. Inside in his mind he was praying to Jiwan to not open her mouth and spill everything. It's too shameful!

The phone was silent for a few seconds as Jiwan seemed to be thinking something then she said, " Just go and ask Wonwoo whatever you want to ask I won't be able to help you."

Wonwoo sighed a breath of relief. Jiwan didn't betray him!

"Why not?" Mingyu whined, "You clearly know something. Actually there's nothing much for you to hide from me. Didn't I already tell you about seeing Wonwoo in red clothes at the bar. I can figure out things by knowing just this one thing but I want to know more about it."

"I really can't stand you! You don't want to ask Wonwoo but you also don't want to let go or keep waiting! Okay! Then tell me, didn't you ask me if I like Wonwoo or not the first thing after you came here to pester me, then first tell me why do you want to know if I like him or not? Why does it matter to you? Why does it matter to you if he was in that bar or not? Why does everything related to Wonwoo matters to you? Do you like him or what?" Jiwan really sounded frustrated when asking these series of questions.

When Jiwan finished asking the last question, Wonwoo was already standing outside the glass door breathing heavily with a drop of sweat sliding through his forehead to his cheek. His whole body felt active and burning not only because of the hard work of climbing the stairs but also because of the last question.

He wanted to go inside but suddenly when he is just one step away from opening it and going in, he couldn't. He kept making up his mind but he still couldn't.

Instead he kept waiting. His phone was silent but he kept waiting patiently until his feets felt cold and his hands started sweating.

'Why isn't Mingyu answering the question? It isn't a hard question. He can even say yes or no so why he is not saying a word?" Wonwoo thought anxiously as he look through the door at the back of Mingyu facing him. He could see Jiwan, Sol and Mingyu together near the corner of the room. Jiwan and Sol were looking at Mingyu also waiting for his answer and finally Mingyu replied.

"No I don't like him..."

"I love him. I love him so much that I might go crazy one day if we don't end up being together."
