Beyond Us [Bangchan] [Finished]

Chapter 51

I know some of you won't agree or simply will get mad at me because of what I'm going to say, but... I didn't enjoy the second half of the concert very much. I still had fun and the show was well planned and executed as always; it's just that in my mind, I was counting down the minutes to be with Chan again.

Surprisingly, I ran into a co-worker when I was heading out. We chat a little bit before parting ways. I did have no idea there was another Stay in the office, we were not many and all of us pretty much knew each other. Of course, there were some people who talked more with others, but we had talked at least a couple of times with everyone.

I wondered if Ella had gone to the concert too, but there was no difference if she had gone or not, she was not talking to me anyway.

I got into my car and waited for the other people to get out first. I hated getting stuck at the exits and hearing all those honks.

I didn't know what I was doing with Chan either, so it was kind of pointless to rush out without knowing where I was going. I watched the videos I had taken and started to share them on Instagram instead.

Chan called me no long after that.

"Hello?" He said.

"Hello!" I replied already happy.

"I couldn't call you sooner, where are you?"

"I don't mind. I'm still in the parking lot. You?"

"On the van, we are stopping at a drive-through McDonald's", he laughed. "I thought about leaving with you but it was difficult to stay there". He sounded sorry.

"Ah, are we meeting though?" I asked kind of nervous.

"Of course", he said in Korean. "But I don't know what do to, I need a change of clothes".

"I can pick you up if you want, at the hotel".

"Just a minute. What did you say?" He asked the late in Korean. "Oh, no, it's fine". I heard a murmur and he laughed. "Sorry, uhm... let's meet at the hotel then".

"Where are you staying? If you can send me the location would be great".

"On it".

"Ah, did you order already?"

"Almost".

"Can you get me something to eat too?" I asked shyly. To be honest, I didn't have a bite since lunch.

"Sure, what do you want?"

"Uh... a Deluxe McCrispy".

"Can you add a Deluxe McCrispy, please?", he said to someone else. "Thank you".

"Thanks".

"I think we will be there soon".

"I'm getting out already". I had started the car the moment he sent me the location of the hotel.

"Ok, so see you there".

"I'll text you went I'm there".

"Alright". There was a short silence.

"See you".

"See you". I waited a bit and ended the call.

I was almost there when I suddenly remembered the bookshelf full of SKZ albums and SKZOO plushies in my bedroom.

"Well, he already knows anyway". I sighed. He could expect that much. "Ah, but the cardboard cutout!" I gasped. "I'll have to run upstairs to hide it". I was thinking of an explanation in case he ended up seeing it when I got to the hotel. "I'm outside". I texted him.
