The Foreigner

Chapter Seventeen

Sage Taylor

I  watched as Dong-Min sat in his usual seat before glancing at him. He looked at me before pulling out his notes.

"What's the issue?" I asked.

"No issue." He said.

"Why are you ignoring me?" I asked.

"I am not ignoring you, I just don't have much to say." He said.

I scuffed.

"You're the most talkative person I know, now all of a sudden you want to be mute? You're not Beyonce." I rolled my eyes.

"What do you want me to say Sage? You literally disappeared last week and showed up this week like nothing happened. I was worried about you and you could've text or called." He snapped.

I sighed and rubbed my temples.

"You're right, and I'm sorry. I was so wrapped up in everything that was going on." I said.

"It's fine, I could've just teleported to you but with In-Yeop and his mating stuff I didn't want to cause more trouble." He said.

"Yeah, thanks for helping us." I said.

"I helped you, I don't give a shit about In-Yeop." He scuffed.

"Well thank you for helping me." I said.

"So...are you guys together now?" He asked.

"Yeah." I nodded.

"So you accepted his mating call?" He asked.

I looked at him weirdly.

"Yes." I nodded.

"That was rather quick...don't you think?" He asked.

"I mean it was but...I like him." I admitted.

"You like him?" He asked.

"Yes." I said.

He nodded before sitting back in his chair.

"What's wrong?" I asked.

"What if I said I like you too?" He asked.

"Dong-Min." I said.

He looked at me with tears in his eyes.

"Was it always him?" He asked.

"No." I said truthfully.

It wasn't always In-Yeop, I was attracted to Dong-Min as well. That alone time with In-Yeop in Seoul changed my perspective.

"So what now?" He asked.

"It's too late Dong-Min. We can still remain-"

"Friends? You want me to stand by your side and support your relationship with that dog?" He asked.

"Dong-Min." I sighed.
