My Secret Lover | HEESEUNG

21- Sibling's Betrayal

Y/N'S POV;

The sound of dishes clinking together and running water was the only present sound in the house. I was wiping down the dining table as Jay was washing the dishes.

Earlier, we both ate dinner together — surprisingly, but we ate in silence. It's been two days since the incident and Jay hadn't talked to me ever since. The only time we would interact was eating meals together but that was all.

I wanted to talk to him, but I was scared. I know he's still upset. I would text Sunghoon to let my emotions out since he's the only one who knows everything. I asked Sunghoon if he wanted to hang out but unfortunately he was busy ice skating with his sister.

If Sunghoon is busy... Jake shouldn't be, right?

Jaeyunie 🦮: hmmmm........ okay. get ready, i'm picking you up and we will walk layla around. will that be okay?

ME: anything is fine by me as long as i'm not in this awkwardly and quiet space w jay

ME: hehe, ty jaeyunnnnn <33

Finally, something to do. I am so ready to leave this silent atmosphere.

"The weather is nice today." I Inhaled the fresh air as I walked beside Jake. "It's nice to go out once in a while," Jake smiled with his hand gripping Layla's dog leash. "You must go out often to walk Layla." "You should walk with us often then." I chuckled at his offer. "Sure thing."

After a couple of laps, we sat down on a bench. My heavy sigh didn't go unnoticed by Jake. He set his water bottle down and turned his attention to me. "Something on your mind?"

I softly sighed and looked down in my lap. "Is Jay not talking to you?" I nodded softly, not lifting my gaze off of my lap. "He would cook for me and eat with me, but he wouldn't even look at me," I mumbled as I fidgeted with my fingers.

"Just give him some time," Jake says, patting my back. "But it's been two days, Jake," I said, barely whispering. "He'll come around, Y/n. He's probably more mad at Heeseung," Jake adds, trying to comfort me.

I nodded, gaining some hope. "I'll... I'll talk to him today." Jake gave me a warm smile, but it seemed like he wanted to ask me something from the way he's shuffling and looking at me.

"You want to know how Heeseung and I got into this mess huh," Jake's eyes widened a "I— Uh... Yes... Are you comfortable telling me?" he asks awkwardly, rubbing the back of his neck. I nodded and proceeded to tell him everything that had happened.

"Ah... So I assume that's what was on your mind during the party and needed a distraction..." Jake concluded after listening to my story. I shyly nodded. After all, Jake is also Heeseung's best friend so telling him this was kind of weird.
