Always and Forever (Showki fanfic)

Ch. 17: Hmph

Hyunwoo

~the next morning~

~the restaurant~

  Since the minute I walked in, I kept looking at the door to see that pink haired male walk in. But then, my line of sight was blocked by Minhyuk who was smiling for some reason. "Waiting for someone," he asks.

"No," I replied a little too quickly. He smirks and rhythmically taps his fingers against the counter top. 

"You know, hyung. I know that you like a certain someone who works here and you are waiting for him to walk in."

"What?! No."

"Lies. Want me to give you some tips to get Kihyun to date you?"

"I don't need your help," I said.

"Wanna bet?"

"Bet on what?"

"On how long it will take for you to date Ki ki...," he says while smiling weirdly. I eyed him for a bit wondering if I should even bother to take him up on this bet. "You scared?"

"No way."

"If you win, I will do the dishes for you for two weeks."

"Okay then what about if you win?"

"Give me Hoseok's phone number."

"Why?"

"You do not need to know. Anyway, I bet that it will take six months for you to get him to date you."

"Four months."

"Alright," he says before shaking my hand. After he leaves, I mentally yelled at myself for even thinking about entering a bet on this as it does seem hard to court the male in question, and there is no real reason to gamble on this matter. But then again, I do not have much to lose. All I need to hand over is Hoseok's phone number. After that, it is not my problem what Minhyuk decides to do with it. I think. 

~door bell chimes~

Kihyun comes in with Hyungwon right beside him. They were talking to each other in low voices but stopped when they reach the kitchen. Hyungwon pass me and makes his way to help with the prep for lunch service. Kihyun stand in front of me and crosses his arms while glaring at me.

"Did I do something wrong," I asked.

"Why did you pay for my hospital bill? Was it out of pity? Do you think I can't pay for it," he counters.

"What? I didn't think you couldn't pay for it. I just wanted to help out since I could not get us out of the fridge and....yeah," I replied.

"Well, here is your money back. I do not like being in debt to anyone," he states before shoving a white envelope at my chest.

"But..."

"No give backs," he says adamantly before walking passed me.
