Matthew's love arrow for Han Bin and Zhang Hao turns to be effective. Fate favours the couple. The duo was announced as Two Centers of Boys Planet, making them to be together almost always.

Shooting video promotion.

Private practice.

Making social media contents.

All those activities makes both of them grew closer. Where there is Han Bin there will be Zhang Hao, vice versa.

No, scratch that.

Actually where there is Zhang Hao there will be Han Bin tailing him behind. After the official centers announcement the Korean center always hangs around the Chinese center, glued to his side.

Ji Woong and every other trainees witness how Han Bin chasing Zhang Hao around, as if he's his shadow. The Korean boy follow the other boy with smitten smile and hearts beaming from his eyes.

"You don't have to be a genius to know that Sung Han Bin is head over heels for Zhang Hao"

Said Jong Woo to Ji Woong one morning, when Han Bin ran away from the K trainee bus to join G trainee bus. Of course to be near his beloved Zhang Hao.

"I thought I'm the only one who could see it" Ji Woong respond.

"Every trainee and every staff knows it, since Han Bin chose to openly show his affection. The reason we all pretending not to see because it is entertaining to watch where Zhang Hao is the only one who doesn't catch up to Han Bin feeling" Jong Woo giggles.

Well, It is true. Even though Han Bin openly flirt and showing his affection towards Zhang Hao, yet the Chinese boy gave him mid respond. Yes mid, the Chinese center treat the Korean center the same as his other friends.

"But I admire Han Bin courage tho..." Jong Woo suddenly blurt out while glancing at Ji Woong. "At least he's brave enough to make a move, not like someone I know" Jong Woo continue and give him teasing smirk.

Ji Woong notice Jong Woo is teasing him, the younger trainee deliberately mock Ji Woong on how up until now he hasn't make a move to Matthew. Unlike Han Bin who aggressively pursue his crush, Ji Woong gave zero to none action. Even the actor has not introduce himself to the Canadian boy.

Jong Woo words stab directly to Ji Woong timid heart, but he refuse to admit it.

"I wont act hastily like Han Bin. Timing is everything" Ji Woong preach.

Jong Woo only snort his disagreement and slips out a few chuckle. Definitely doubting Ji Woong words.

"Mark my words!" Ji Woong glare at his friend.

"Whatever, All I know Sung Han Bin is going to win Zhang Hao. And you, Hyung, will go nowhere with your strategy" Jong Woo recite.

***

How shocked Jong Woo when knowing his prediction didn't came true.

Suddenly the two centers grew apart.

The duo who always glued together now acting total opposite. Both never seen together, not at practice session, not at meal time, not at free time. Where Zhang Hao is there wont be Han Bin present.

No scratch that.

Actually, where Han Bin is there will be Zhang Hao who try his might to run away from him. The Chinese boy avoid him like infectious virus. The separation getting worse after Signal Song rank announcement and team division, whereas the first mission team was K-Group versus G-Group.

Now Zhang Hao doesn't want to be around Han Bin, the Chinese boy only hangs around his own group Kill This Love team or other Chinese trainee.

On the other side, Han Bin try to act normally but everyone could see sadness clouded his eyes. As if he's been rejected by Zhang Hao.

"What happens to them? Did they break up? Why from lovey dovey to suddenly act like divorced couple?"

Jong Woo express his confusion one day at break time during Back Door team practice session. Ji Woong and Jong Woo are team mates on this mission.

"Told you, aggressively chasing your crush will lead you nowhere. Timing is important" said Ji Woong.

Jong Woo roll his eyes, hate to admit that his hyung is right.

"But did you notice Hyung? Matthew also acting weird these days. He look devastated and struggle act naturally between the two centers" Jong Woo words perks Ji Woong attention.

The actor does notice after the separation of the centers the Canadian boy always looking sad, more like frustrated. Maybe it's inevitable since Han Bin is Matthew best friend and on the same time Zhang Hao is Matthew leader in Kill This Love team. The Canadian might having hard time to pick a side between two centers.

"I suspect Matthew knows something. Probably the reason why the two centers separate" Jong Woo expressed his suspicions.

Ji Woong nudge him with his elbow.

"Stop worrying other people business, focus on your own task, Mr Center" Ji Woong remind his younger friend to prioritized his own mission, which is to bring the best Killing Part for Back Door K-Group team against the G-Group.

"Yes, yes.. I'll follow your instruction Mr Leader" Jong Woo respond.

Even though Ji Woong instruct Jong Woo to focused on their practice but it was hard for the actor to put his mind for his own training session. Matthew worried face always clouded his mind and it resulted on making him did multiple mistakes when doing his dance step.

After his fifth mistake he decide to give half an hour break for his team, he needs his time to recollect his focus.

JI Woong opted to make a walk to the cafeteria to grab a drink, yet the rest of his members chose to stay at the practice room rewatch their practice video record.

The Actor took his time walking slowly through the practice rooms. He just realize that Back Door and Kill This Love practice rooms are near.

I might accidentally meet Matthew if I keep passing his practice room.

Ji Woong immediately shakes his head, he needs to stop thinking about the cute Canadian boy. Him taking this break supposed to make him, temporarily, forget Matthew. He try his might to dissed every possible way to think about the sunshine boy.

But God have different scenario, as Ji Woong make his way to the stair his steps comes to a halt because the one he try to chase away from his mind sat there.

Ji Woong eyes widen finding Matthew sit on the stairs alone.

The sunshine boy is as charming as always. His golden brown hair is cutely messy, his cute face look troubled, his pink lips is pouting. Ji Woong never see anyone who could look frustrated but cute at the same time like Matthew did.

Matthew grumbles and cursing on his own, scramble his golden brown hair. Making him cuter 100 times more in Ji Woong eyes.

The Canadian boy still hasn't notice that the actor is watching him. Ji Woong now torn between two option, to turn back to his practice room pretending never see his cute crush or to gather his courage to finally introduce himself.

He's stuck for a minute not able to pick a decision. But suddenly his own words struck him like lightning, gave him the guts he needs.

Timing is Everything

And with that Ji Woong sum up his courage, with racing hearts, he makes his first step to his cute sunshine boy.

No more hiding, now it's the TIME!

He took a deep breath and step out from his hideout. Try his best to act naturally and voice out his first sentence to his crush.

"What are you doing here?"
