11. Fiancée's Partner Was A Boy

They arrived at Sunghoon's yard. Jihoon parked his motorbike to the side and took off his helmet, revealing his excited yet shocked face. "Shit! The man is dead rich!", he exclaimed observing the house in front of them.

"Well yeah. But you knew it already.", Maena said and walked to the front door first. She knows that it might look very expensive and modern for Jihoon, but for herself not so, because her family has always been pretty wealthy too. 

"Wow..", Jihoon mutter after he stepped inside the house and looked around the living room and kitchen space.

"Let's go to my room.", Maena suggested and already headed to the small corridor that leads to the upstairs. Jihoon came after her a little more slowly, since he was still admiring the place.

"Okay, well, let's continue our project then.", she said as she stepped inside her room with Jihoon after her. 

"Certainly not yet. First you tell me more about all this. You must have already told everything to Bora. I want to know too.", he insisted and laid on her bed, waiting for a great and long talk and explanation.

Maena sighed. "Okay, fine.", she gave in.

-

Maena told Jihoon more about the whole marriage. About the fact that their parents had done it for the company, but she didn't tell what Junho told because those are still Sunghoon's private affairs, mostly. And neither Maena nor hardly Junho or Sunghoon would want them to be shared.

Equally, Jihoon was also excited to hear about Sunghoon, what he is like and so on. Maena only told what is true, what she has also told Bora too. And that's not even all, Jihoon asked a lot if they kissed, held hands or anything else. Because well, can't an engaged couple do that? Well, guess not, Maena thought.

Before they started to continue the project, they wanted a little something to eat. So they went back downstairs and into the kitchen to make some snacks.

They continued chatting, and didn't even have time to sit down, but stood in the kitchen, leaning on the counters. But yes, you can snack like that.

Then they soon fell silent for a moment when they heard the door open. Sunghoon was taking off his shoes in the hall for a moment and then walked towards the kitchen, but stopped there. They all three shared eye contacts for a while, then Jihoon greeted him eagerly, "Hi!"

Sunghoon gazed at the floor for a second. "You said it was a girl.", he said tiredly even a little bitterly.

"Um.. No I didn't.", she cleared while scratching her nape with a nervous chuckle. She really didn't say anything if her parter is a girl or a boy, but he didn't even ask anything about it. "But what does it really matter?"

"Nothing.", he replied.

"Should I introduce?", Jihoon whispered to her, but she shook her head. The state Sunghoon was again was tired and exhausted. Even if Jihoon did introduce he would be too tired to listen and too tired to care.

"Hey, have you not gotten sleep again?", she inquired and approached Sunghoon as she saw him now heading to his room. He didn't answer anything and kept walking the small corridor while Maena followed him.

"Now have a nap, okay? I will cook for you when you wake up or now however you want.", she said to him in a lower voice, for Jihoon to not hear. She didn't really want Jihoon to know about his personal life so much.

"Don't mind me. You just study.", he urged tiredly before entering his room. She didn't follow him there but stood a while in front of his door. She wanted to help him somehow, but she doesn't even know how.
