My Lover ~ Jeonghcheol Of Seventeen

Distance between us..😔

You didn't change, it's the distance i should blame for everything........right? (Han exhaled a heavy breath while lying on his bed, when these thoughts were crawling into his mind)

It was the next day, and last day before the event. It was the annual event in their town in honour to celebrate the heritage of their town and beautiful sea. It is always an important event for the town.

Han finally leaves the bed he already checked his phone millions of times since he woke up but there is nothing from Cheol. Han's heart dropped to his stomach as he looked at his phone. He willed his hand to stop shaking as he slowly saw his phone for the last time before throwing it on the bed, because there is still no response from Cheol. He stormed out from his room while having thoughts of the existence of their relationship with eyes screaming how hurt he was.

When Han was almost dying in despair then how could Cheol be fine? Cheol was also as discomposed as Han was. He stayed in his office all night. When he woke up his fingers ran through to his phone and opened the chat with the person who is, his comfort but he stifled himself to make any conversation.

Not that I wanted us to be distant but you are not just with me right now. There is no further explanation for this.. (Cheol sighed in distress)

They both were miserable without each other. Even though this was hurting Cheol he was keeping distance between him and Han. But why?

Cheol was in his office, resting on a chair he tilted his head back and closed his eyes when he was tired. Only a few minutes later he felt a touch on his shoulder when he opened his eyes and found Soohyun, massaging his shoulders gently. Cheol immediately shuddered.

Cheol- Soohyun-ah, when did you come?? (He asked while rubbing his eyes)

Soohyun- when you almost died in exhaustion. (He scoffed)

Cheol responded with a cold gaze at him.

Soohyun- what?? Did you stay here all night?? (He questioned Cheol while sitting on the table in front of him)

Cheol- oh yeah, I had some work to finish. (He said nonchalantly)

Soohyun- but you told me that you are going home to see your father. Did you lie to me?? (He kept a plan face but he tightened his grip over the table he was sitting on)

Cheol gaped at Soohyun with a curious expression on his face. He raised his eyebrows but kept his calm.

Cheol- no I didn't but I changed my mind. (He stated while maintaining eye contact with Soohyun)

Soohyun put a fake smile on his face which was so evident to recognise he then moved from the table to avoid Cheol's eyes.

Soohyun- well you should have told me, i would give you company. Anyway what are you even working on now? As of I know all the process work has already done in this project and only production is left. (He inquired deliberately)

Cheol glanced at Soohyun his smile was fading slowly, Cheol got up on his chair and walked towards Soohyun and rested his one arm on his shoulder and another in his own pocket. Cheol smiled at Soohyun which made him feel conscious.

Cheol- This project is very dear to me so I don't see waste of time working hard on it. (Cheol kept staring into his eyes as if he was looking for answers to his silent questions. Soohyun's eyes were shaking in fear).

Soohyun breaks the trance as he pushes Cheol's arm over his shoulder.

Soohyun- let's celebrate tonight for our project what you say?? (He suggested)
