Sixth Candle

[Taeyang's POV]

It's been three days since Hwiyoung and I fought.

And he's still not talking to me.

He lets me sleep in our room but there's this awkwardness between us.

"Guys! Ppalli! Let's go!" Inseong-hyung excitedly said while clapping like a seal.

"Is everything set?" Youngbin-hyung asked as he looked at us.

"Yeap. This is the last one and we're ready to go." Rowoon-hyung said as he put the basket of foods behind the van's backseat followed by Zuho-hyung who's carrying a casserole.

"Alright! Kaja!" Dawon-hyung shouted.

"Just keep swimming, just keep swimming, just keep swimming, swimming, swimming~~" Chani mimicking Dory of Finding Nemo.

What a kid, really.

Everyone rode the van one by one.

We're going to have a one day vacation on Subin's family resort.

Hwiyoung told Youngbin-hyung about this and the latter asked their manager for permission to go.

And here we are now.

Youngbin-hyung will drive. Inseong-hyung is on the passenger seat.

Our three hyungs: Rowoon, Zuho, and Dawon are on the backseat while the maknaes are assigned to sit in the middle.

"Chani-yah! Taeyang-ah! why aren't you getting in?" Youngbin-hyung asked from the driver's seat.

"Hwiyoung is not here yet." Chani said.

Before Chani could finish his sentence, Hwiyoung went out of the building.

He went straight to the van and sat beside the window.

"Taeyang-ah... go first." Chani commanded me to ride first.

I get in the van and Chani followed me.

"Okay! Kaja!" Youngbin-hyung started the engine and started driving.

"You are yeoja, yeoja hae~~" everyone is singing along with the music playing from the audio player /please listen to Jung Yong Hwa's That Girl/

Well, except for Hwiyoung who has his earphones on.

He's just looking outside the window and I am just watching him.

I tried to hold his arm to get his attention but he just looked at me coldly and removed my hand from his arm then leaned on the window.

I heaved a sigh and closed my eyes.

I'll just sleep instead.

[Hwiyoung's POV]

I'm bored.

I'm not used of not talking with others.

But they are all sleeping (Except for Youngbin-hyung, of course).

And I need to pretend to be cold to Taeyang.

Aysh!

Well, I'm not that mad at him.

What happened that night is just nothing to me. I'm shocked, yes. But it's totally nothing.

The thing is...

I'm just... just...

Okay fine.

I'm jealous.

Especially, when Jaeyoon-ssi hugged Taeyang and he hugged him back.

I can't bear watching it when they're exchanging their sweet thankyous and goodbyes.
