ACCIDENTAL HUSBANDS 2 // JOONGDUNK//

THE CHALLENGE

"Dunk... Did you see this?" Ryu came running to my room. But stopped short when he saw me looking at the video Joong had posted.

I wasn't following Joong directly. But that video went viral. Everybody was reposting it.

Joong is so cool

Such a heroic act

Joong Archen Aydin my hero

OMG I wish he was my fiancé

Dunk, you are so lucky

That was so hot

I don't know what is wrong with everyone. And I don't know where Joong hit his head this morning.

This kind of behavior is outlandish. I can't believe it escalated this quickly.

But I must commend his bravery. Mostly all the negative comments/posts were taken down. I am not sure how many duel requests he would have received but the floating red remarks are all vanished.

"I was coming to show you this only." Ryu said taking a seat beside me.

I sighed and shut down my laptop.

"Why are you here?" I turned to Ryu.

"What is happening? Are people bullying you?" he asked concerned.

I chuckled and smacked his head lightly.

"Nobody is bullying us. Why? Are you going to fight them off?" I asked teasing.

"No. Joong bro is there for that. He will handle it." He said.

I recalled Joong punching Third today evening at the sports club.

"He needs to grow up." I said plainly.

"And you need to man up."

"RYU!"

"What? You should be supporting him. He is fighting for you both."

"This isn't a war field. Cut the drama." I said getting up from bed.

"Someone calling you a faggot and mocking you for gawking at naked boys is not wrong. Fighting back for it is wrong. Yeah I get it." He said and got up.

"Ryu, listen to me."

"Good night Dunk." He said and left the room.

His words are too pressurizing. But I do NOT want to be a part of any drama. I did not ask Joong to come and fight for me. And it doesn't matter to me who thinks what.

This whole wedding is unavoidable. I have accepted that. But with that I cannot accept the shit that I am getting as packaged deal.

Pond is furious as well. Why do I need to fight with anyone? Why should I take a stand? I am not interested.

Joong has always been like this. Reckless and hot blooded. But I cannot be like him. I do not want to be like him.

If he can't accept the posts and comments, then that is his problem. But why does everybody expect me to fight along with him?

I don't give a damn. And I won't bother myself with any such stupidity. If required, I won't go to university tomorrow.

I am not a coward. I just hate chaos. It's irritating enough that my own friends have turned sour to me. And on top of that now I am expected to compete with everyone? What nonsense logic is that?

I gave up my thoughts and went to sleep.

By next day evening, I was tired of studying and avoiding everything and everyone trapped in the library. I didn't even talk to Pond once.
