Chapter 21

The next day, in finance department, everything is going as usual. To everyone else except Mingyu. He had been looking at the entrance of the department since the morning. He had brought both the lunch boxes to the office, preparing to give to his manager during lunch break. The pork bone soup sat nicely in the warming container under Mingyu's desk.

Every time it's 'ting', he would make himself a little bit taller than the computer or move slightly to left or right to take a glance.

First few time was not obvious, then it started to get transparent that Seonghwa wonder if there was anything in the hallway or was expecting someone.

Yunho saw Seonghwa stared at the intern in indescribable gaze.

"Why are you staring at him like that?"

"Do you know who that guy was anticipating to come through the door?" Seonghwa did not took his eyes off Mingyu.

"I don't know," Yunho hinted, "Bet he's just looking out for Wonwoo hyung, in case that man gives him more work to do."

"Wonwoo hyung is not here?" Seonghwa asked in shocked Pikachu face.

"Nope," Yunho responded, "Heard from Seungcheol hyung that he had a bad fever last night."

"Wonwoo hyung caught fever?" Mingyu interrupted when he accidentally heard the conversation on his way to get more iced coffee. His worriedly tone went noticeable by the duo.

"Yes," Yunho confirmed, "That's why he was not coming to work today."

"I thought he had outside work." Mingyu mumbled to himself, "I'll get going then, hyung. Sorry for interrupting." he gave a small smile to the duo.

"No problem." Yunho smiled back.

After seeing that the intern walked in a significant distance, Yunho chirped in.

"The manager gave him those shitty amount of work yesterday, yet he's still that caring about him?" his voice displayed sarcasm, "What's a good employee he is."

"Not coincidence," Seonghwa claimed upon observing the intern reaction when hearing the new, "Watch me being right that something happened between those two."

"Hyung, not everyone see men in that way like us." Yunho stated while rolling his eyes backward.

"I have that sixth sense, you know." the older lightly tapped at his left chest, "We'll see later."

Yunho ushered Seonghwa back to his place, saying that he was sprouting nonsense. Little did he know that Seonghwa is right afterall.

The coffee machine beeped after the timer ran out, implying that the coffee is done. Mingyu came back to his sense from the sound. This is his third cups and it is merely 11am.

Heading out of the room, he bumped into Seungcheol who come for the same reason; more coffee. He automatically mumbled a quick apologize and received back an okay, that when he knew who he had bumped into.

"Seungcheol hyung?" Mingyu called.

"Hmm," the older answered

Mingyu knew what he was going to ask would sound really creepy and stalkerish to someone who assume that their manager and him just knew each other. But he had no other choice. He determined to give the soup to the manager no matter what method using; even if he had to go to Wonwoo's house.

"Um- "

Seungcheol turned around after hearing the younger hesitant tone, "What do you wanna ask? Have trouble with the work?" He leaned on the table and sipped the coffee that he just made.
