When Jongin and Baekhyun left the room to give Chanyeol some space, Jongin watched watched Bakehyun drag himself to the sofa and lay down himself. On the other hand, Jongin went into the kitchen and sat at the table, taking out his phone from his pocket. Jongin unlocked his screens, tapped on messenger then tapped on the 'unknown number' although It wasn't so unknown anymore.
He took a few minutes before typing in a text to the person he has been wanting to talk to for what seemed like an eternity.
It read along the lines of :

[are you by any chance Do Kyungsoo?]>

He sent that first just incase it wasn't, somehow, actually him. Jongin breathed in and out heavily, trying to slow his heart from thumping from nervousness. He didn't know how long it would take for him to get a reply but he was willing to wait.

Luckily, it didn't take more than a day—it took way less than that; Jongin got a reply with half an hour after he sent the message.

<[erm maybe, why?]

In fact , it was followed by several other messages. (Damn it, I typed IMfACT—the struggles)

<[how do you know me?]

<[who are you?]

<[is this a joke?]

<[This has to be a joke right?]

<[seriously who is this?]

<[Chen if this is you, I swear to god]

<[or Baekhyun, I will break you—both of you]

   [dont worry it's not a joke nor is it Chen or Baekhyun]>

'Shall I tell him?'

<[okay but who is it?]

<[do I know you?]

  [maybe ]>

<[who are you?]

  [i can't tell you]>

<[why not ?]

  [ I just can't. ]>

<[okay fine fine at least tell me if I know you though]

[no]>

<[what?]

  [no you don't know me.]>

' you don't know me but I know you'

<[ oh ]

<[ surely this must be a joke]

<[ how do you know me if I don't know you?]

[i've just seen you around]>

Jongin thought about it—he thought about telling Kyungsoo that one of his roommate knows you. Would that be too obvious? Will he find me out? He took a deep breathe and went for it. 'I can't hide it forever, I can keep giving him clues to work it out himself'

[and one of my roommates  know you]>

<[they do? And we are friends?]

[yeah, well I'm guessing so anyway]>

<[you aren't making this easy for me whoever you are]

[to be fair, I'm not trying to ]>

<[ who's the roommate of yours then? ]

[not telling]>

<[ aigoo! Why not?! You're so mean]

[im sorry I would tell you but I can't right now]>

<[alright one more question before I go okay?]

This is where Jongin became slightly nervous. What was he going to ask? If he answered it would it reveal who he was? If Kyungsoo keeps asking all these   Good questions Jongin would have been caught within a day or two.

[okay]>

<[do you perhaps do to the same Arts School as me?]

'Keep it together Jongin... If you say yes he won't know it's you exactly straight away will he? There are loa
