His Secret Girlfriend

➺CHAPTER EIGHT.TWO

Jae's pov

I scrutinized the crowds. Mostly I assumed them to be Mr and Mrs Kim business partners. Lee Soo Man is here too. I looked for the Exo members.

I spotted Kyungsoo! I was about to make my way there but... The girl is already there. What's her name again.........
(I really forget what's her name when I wrote this😫)

Right Hana. Sehun and Hana. They even wore something matching... Hana's wearing a dark blue dress and Sehun's tie is also a dark blue. I sighed. What am I doing to our relationship.

Anyways, I tried to be civilized and talked with some of the guests here since they're acquainted with mum and dad.

I sneaked a glance at Sehun. Hana had her arm wrapped around Sehun's arm.

"I heard you got an offer to act in the Famous Taiwan production next year. Then what about K-ARTS?" Someone who knows dad asked.

"Ah, I'm still contemplating about it as if I take up the offer, I have to start school a year later." I replied.

"Oh, that's good. I'm sure you'll succeed either way since you're very talented like your dad. I wish you all the best!"

"Thank you Sir." I nodded.

"Ah ah, may I have everyone's attention please. Firstly, I'd like to thank my parents for hosting this special birthday party for me. Secondly, to my parents business partners, thank you for making time to come. Thirdly, to my friends and members who came to celebrate my birthday, I hope we continue to maintain a good relationship with years to come. I hope everyone enjoyed their time here." Suho gave his speech and then stepped down from the mini stage.

"Definitely nope." I said to myself.

"Let's sing a birthday song before he cuts the cake!" The MC said.

Everyone sang a birthday song for Suho. And he blow the candles. And he cut the cake.

"Jae! I didn't know you came!" Chen said as he spotted me.

The whole Exo and Hana walked towards me. Be civilized Jae. You are a good kid. Your parents love you so don't embarrass them. Try. Ok? Try.

"Aha! Well I just teleported here." I said as I looked to Kai, in their concept, Kai had the power of teleportation.

"Are you seriously kidding me." Kai grunted.

"You look hot tonight!" Baekhyun wiggled his eyebrows and hugged me.

"Shut up." I muttered, embarrassed, and playfully punched Baekhyun's arm.

"Hey Baekie, what do you think about our outfits?" Hana cut off whatever Baekhyun was about to reply.

Then it became awkward. Krik krik. Am I supposed to feel offended and hurt because it's aimed towards me?

"Well, I'll just-" I said as I pointed towards the door.

"We're going out to get fresh air." Chanyeol said as he placed his hand on my lower back and lead the way.

We walked to the main entrance but stopped when we heard the commotion. A crowd of reporters dash towards Sehun. They must have taken the back entrance. Just how are they able to get in...

"Sehun, may I or we, know who's the girl you're linking hands with?"
"Is she your Girlfriend?"
"Are you guys dating?"
"What's about your fans?"
"Isn't she debuting soon?"
"How long have you guys been dating?"

I looked to Lee Soo Man, he frowned and shake his head. On the other hand, the new CEO of SM smiled and nodded his head, accepting what is happening. But hey, that's old news. Bringing myself back this world, I felt super shy when I felt Chanyeol making circles using his thumb on my bare back.

We sat on the swing nearby. Chanyeol took off his blazer and draped it over my shoulder. I leaned my head on his shoulder and closed my eyes.

"Channie, what do I do? I'm tired of all these. I can't take it anymore."

"Then break it up with him cleanly, be the mature one here. I- exo is here for you." He said as he patted my back soothingly.

"It's so frustrating that he don't deny his feelings towards her. I mean why am I the replacement-"

I was interrupted when I felt a soft lips on mine. He moved his lips slowly and I followed his lead. It was a bliss but I retracted my lips. It's just wrong but felt right. I still have feelings for Sehun and didn't want to take Chanyeol as a rebound.

"I'll take you home. Come on."

*******

Chanyeol walked me to my home and hugged me tightly once we reached my doorstep.

"Text me when you get back home safely. Goodnight Channie."

"Okay. Goodnight Jae bae. Don't think about it too much." Chanyeol said and reluctantly let go of the hug.

"I'll see you in school tomorrow, if you're coming." I nodded.

I went inside to find I'm the only person home. I dragged myself up to my room. Then I remembered that I was going to be alone for 4 months which is till my audition in September since Dae Han accompanied mum and dad for their work abroad.

After finally washing and changing into my sleepwear, my phone beeped. It's the news about Sehun. Well, I followed this account on news about Exo on Twitter and even on the notification for this account.

SEHUN AND GIRLFRIEND ATTENDED SUHO'S BIRTHDAY PARTY. IS IT REAL OR IS IT JUST ANOTHER ONE OF SM'S PLOY?

ROOKIE GIRL AND SEHUN SEEN HOLDING HANDS AT SUHO'S PARTY!

And many of that crap. I'll just sleep it off...

But my phone happen to rang just as I was about to fell asleep. I sat upright. I looked at the caller and answered.

"Channie." I said groggily.

"Did I disturb you?" He asked, sounding worried.

"Kind of. But I'm awake now."

"Right. Anyways I've reached home and showered. I just wanted to hear your voice before I go to sleep..."

"Idiot, how am I suppose to reply to that..." I felt really embarrassed.

"Are you coming to school tomorrow?"

"It depends, I still feel like a piece of shiz."

*******

I was about to close my eyes when I received another call. Kris. That's weird.

"Hi Kris op-" I greeted.

"What do you think you are doing? It's not going to only affect you, it's going to affect all of us." Suho...

"I'm sorry." Hey that sounds like Sehun.

"Why did you do it? Didn't you think about the consequences? About Jae?" Suho pleaded.

"I had a change of heart. I thought I could get over Hana. I thought that I could use J-" and the call ended. I guess Kris didn't want me to hear any more but at the same time I guess he didn't want to keep me in the dark.

I used the pillow to cover my crying face. Finally the reality is sinking in. He didn't like me. It was a ploy. It was fake.

He was just using me to forget Hana...

Updates will be on every Friday.
