Chapter 61: talk the talk

------------✧♡✧-------------

There had been complete silence between my brother and me for a week. What am I saying? Between all of us completely. Sunghoon hadn't even contacted Mom. It's like he moved to another city, even though his apartment was only 3 blocks away.

He had also ignored Heeseung for days and left his messages on read.

It hurt me personally, but I didn't see it as my job to reach out to him. He should take as much time as he needed. I could understand his anger, but his outburst at his party was more than childish. It should perhaps be mentioned that he had left the house after this action and left all the guests alone. But what can you say? Sunghoon in rage no longer has a functioning brain.

But for Heeseung, breaking off contact in this way was out of the question. Which is why he found himself outside his apartment some time later, waiting for the door to be opened for him.

[Heeseung P.O.V]

I had already rung his doorbell three times and waited for Sunghoon to step out. I knew he was at home. His location, which I could see on my cell phone, revealed that he wasn't on the road.

"Come on, Hoon.", I groaned annoyed. "You know I'm not going to leave without talking to you.".

This was already my third attempt, and I was relieved to hear footsteps towards the front door.

"Piss off! What do you want?". He opened the door just a crack and I couldn't see much.

I tried to oped it a litte wider. "Talk"

"Why should I talk to the guy who's messing with my sister?".

I exhaled and rubbed my temples. "I am NOT messing with her. Why the fuck would I be standing here, trying to talk to you?".

A long silence filled the area until I finally took the floor again. "I like her.", my voice sounded hoarse. "I really like her.".

The door opened a little wider and I was able to see his body. He sighed.

"Come in...".

We lowered ourselves on the couch opposite. Sunghoon's gaze was still as dark as it had been a week ago. He probably wouldn't say anything on the subject himself - understandably, somehow... . If I had been lied to for months, I would very likely be in a similarly bad mood.

"I know you are mad at me. And you have every right to do so.".

"How long has this been going on - between you two?" he continued directly, barely letting me finish.

"About half a year. A bit longer...". I replied shortly.

He laughed derisively, shaking his head. "And what is that supposed to represent now? You're fucking each other? Friends with benefits?".

"Listen", His blunt manner almost made my head spin. "I don't know what you want from me, or what you think I am like. Hyeo and I are dating. And that was even before she left for the US. And your absolutely outrageous behavior over the last few days was the reason we kept it a secret from you".

Sunghoon chewed on his lower lip. "Dating? So the reason you flew over to the states was to visit her?".

"Yeah, we had a...thing going on and I needed to clarify something with her in person.".

"That's insane.".

"We knew that you wouldn't approve of the whole thing and decided to keep the relationship secret for the time being. But it gradually became more and more difficult...".
