Mimic Me

Engaged With Alcohol, Not With A Ring

A short Junhao chapter is mandatory

Jun bombarded me with calls and text messages, pleading with me to have mercy on him.

I'm so damn tired of him.

So damn tired of not being able to tell anybody that we're dating, not even our friends, who, by the way, are all gay!

I'm so full of love for Jun.

In fact, love is the only thing I feel nowadays. It clouds my vision, drowns my thoughts, fills my nose.

I'm practically bursting with affection and burning with the desire to show it.

We've dragged it on for too long, we'll have to tell somebody eventually.

If Jeonghan figures out this odd scandal before we tell him, it sets him off the rails.

Jeonghan has been so stressed lately, trying to become a better friend than he already is, Jun's distrust in telling him about our relationship would shatter him.

My mom is already upset that I've been 'single' this long. She reminds me to get a girlfriend every chance she gets.

She really drove a point home when I came home from my friends banter about the pistol.

As soon as I slipped in the house, my mom barged out of her room, the most tragic of angry looks I've ever seen on her.

"Where in God's earth have you been?" She didn't bother to fold her arms, or put her hands on her hips to announce she was upset.

She was so furious she was shaking.

"Do you understand how worried I've been?" When my mother gets upset her eyebrows pull together and she speaks so quickly I can hardly get a word out.

"You're sixteen Minghao, you can't do whatever you want whenever you want to!"

I set my jacket on the coat rack, kicking my shoes to the doormat rather angrily.

"If you were really that worried then you would have called. You know I always answer my phone," I roll my eyes, attempting to head up the stairs to my room but my mother blocks the stairway, glaring with eyes that could summon devils.

"Do not talk to me that way Xu Myunghao. Where have you been?"

"The same place I always am, with my friends!" I yell. "You're well aware how often we hang out, why are you always picking fights with me?"

"I don't pick fights Minghao, I'm your mother, I'm supposed to know where you are all of the time."

"Oh my God mom, get with the times! It's 2014, nobody knows where their kids are!"

"Clearly. Aren't the rest of your friends' parents concerned? What about Jihoon? I've never even met the guy because you guys are always gone."

"My friends are fine, you don't need to meet Jihoon, I don't even think you properly met Dino when we befriended him last year."

"Well I'd like to, he sounds intriguing. Isn't he deaf?"

"It's none of your business what he is mom, he's been busy recently."

My mom really seems to lose her shit, complaining with theatrical movements.

"Everybody's busy, all the time! Busy busy busy! And the worst part about it? They're always doing unruly things like taking drugs or going to gay bars."

"I bet your friend Dino goes to gay bars, he's always been a bit odd." My mother criticizes. "The rest of them seem to be normal enough. Except maybe Mingyu, he's always buddy buddy with Wonwoo."
