Broken Dancer // Woosan

Holiday Wishes

Wooyoung wasn't expecting to go to Cyberpunk on Christmas Eve, but here he was playing bartender once again.

Hongjoong was grateful that he came so he could get some other work done for once. He loved having a partner, especially someone he trusted more than anything.

"Why did you tell San to stay home? He's confused." Seonghwa asked, looking at his texts.

The Psychology professor continued his routine of coming to the club daily, but this time it was to keep Wooyoung company so he wasn't overwhelmed.

"Because I knew you'd be here and I wanna talk about why I'm terrified."

"Terrified? Why, what's wrong?"

"I'm from Ilsan."

"Okay?" Seonghwa wasn't following. That would be because he knows nothing about Wooyoung's background.

"My brother is in 5th grade."

"You don't talk to your family, right?"

"It's been a few years."

"What you're afraid of is highly unlikely."

"But it's a possibility."

"Do you know what school he goes to?"

"Ilsan Elementary."

"Yup, that's the one." Seonghwa mumbled. "But again, there's a chance that San won't have him in his class, assuming he gets the job."

"I'm not gonna tell him."

"Now let's say your brother actually ends up in his class, and then San asks you about it. What will you do then?"

"I'll tell him to treat him like every other kid there. Don't give him special treatment, don't try to get to know him, nothing. My family wants nothing to do with me."

"How old was he the last time you saw him?"

"6." Wooyoung loved his younger brother. From the day he was born, he vowed to always protect him. But that was ripped away when his parents kicked him out.

"What's his name?"

"Kyungmin."

"I'm sure he misses you."

"I'm sure he does too, but out of respect for my parents, everyone needs to leave it alone." Wooyoung snapped, not wanting to get sentimental.

"I won't tell San."

"Thank you."

Wooyoung began to think of all the potential possibilities that could occur. He didn't rule out the positive ones immediately, but he didn't focus on them for long.

"Does he look like you?" Seonghwa asked.

"You can tell we're brothers."

"San isn't always observant if you haven't noticed." He smiled, thinking about how no one picked up on the fact that Wooyoung and Jet were the same person.

"Trust me, I have. For such a smart guy, he's an idiot majority of the time."

"Yeah, that sounds about right. But you keep him on his toes. I called him on the way here and he told me all about how you are with him."

Wooyoung started to blush, knowing that he has quite the playful attitude. "He seems to like it."

"He does quite a bit. I hope you know I was never truly against you, by the way."

"If you were, Hongjoong wouldn't be talking to you." Wooyoung smiled.

"I've learned that, yeah. You mean a lot to him."
