The Twelfth Chapter

Luhan settled himself beside Sehun inside Minseok’s bar. The bar just opened but there were already a few customers inside since it was Friday evening. Sehun took his usual place, still not saying a word right after they left the university. He didn’t like it that Luhan came to see him again but he knew that the guy wouldn’t stop pestering him until he agrees to talk with him.

“Lu-ge!” Minseok exclaimed when he saw who was with Sehun.

“Minseok-ah! It’s been awhile.” Luhan greeted the owner warmly.

Sehun looked at Minseok, and then at Luhan, confused on how these two knew each other.

Luhan noticed Sehun’s confusion so he explained. “Minseok is a college friend. I’m surprised he didn’t tell you that we know each other.”

Minseok chuckled. “Well, this kid doesn’t really talk to me until recently. So, what would you two like to have? It’s in the house.”

“Don’t bother. I’ll pay for my own.” Sehun stated coldly.

“If you say so. The usual, then?”

Sehun nodded once. Luhan sighed on the side. “Just give me anything, Minseok-ah.”

When the bartender was gone, Sehun immediately turned to Luhan. “Start speaking so I can leave.”

“Why are you in such a rush? We just arrived here.” Luhan replied nonchalantly.

Sehun’s expression turned dark. “I have no time for games, Luhan.”

“I’m older than you so call me hyung.” The older one’s voice turned serious. “I’ll go straight to the point then. You need to go back home, Sehun.”

“How many times do I have to tell you that I won’t? I don’t consider that place ‘home’ anymore. You’re just the family lawyer so get off my back.” Sehun snarled.

Luhan’s jaws hardened and met Sehun’s glare. “I promised my father that I won’t let this case lose, Sehun. But more importantly, you’re my friend – no, you’re already a brother to me so I’m going to do everything I can so you can have what’s rightfully yours.”

“I don’t need it.” He muttered bitterly.

“Listen, if you won’t show up on the next trial, you’re uncle’s going to remove you from the family and extract from you everything that you have. Even that apartment you’re living in right now. You can’t let that happen.”

Sehun’s hands balled into fists but he willed himself to keep his calm. “He can do whatever he wants and I won’t care.”

“Sehun, you have to take –“

“He has the right to do that since I’m my mother’s bastard son. I never belonged in that family. You do remember when I spent more than a month at your house and my father never cared.” He chuckled darkly. “He’ll be glad that I’m going to lose everything.”
