dare [h. renjun]

-chapter eighteen-

(even though the first part of the chapter is boring, i hope you'll read it 'til the end because there will be some 'hot tea' at every chapter's ending😂)

"we need you to help us in this company"

"how can you still eat icecream despite of being full?!" renjun asked who was walking beside me.

"can't skip dessert." i replied, licking the vanilla icecream in my hands while sungwon was holding the plastic bag.

"seriously, you're unbelievable." he shook his head as i responded, "thanks"

i noticed sungwon has been quiet since we got out from the store, so i took a quick glance at him. "are you gonna meet sowon?" i asked while he was walking beside me too.

"it'd be great if the three of us would have a little reunion."

"i'm free anytime!" i immediately exclaimed that made him chuckle. "gosh, she missed you so much as me."

"i know." he smiled genuinely.

oh look, (y/n)! there he goes again.

suddenly, sungwon placed his hand across me which made me stop in my pace. i turned my head to see a street light pole right infront of me.

"you weren't looking at your way." he chuckled.

wow, that was so close...

i awkwardly laughed--- like what i used to do anyways.

"hurry up, the guys are waiting." renjun said who just continued walking ahead of us. i quickened my pace as sungwon followed.

"see you tomorrow!" i waved at sungwon who was leaving.

"it was great meeting you again, (y/n). have a good night." he let out a smile before walking down the street leaving renjun and i at the front door.

"aren't you coming inside?" i asked as he looked down on his phone.

"tell them i have to go now." he shoved his phone in his pocket before stepping out of the doorway.

"why? where are you going?" i asked, my gaze following him.

"why? would you miss me that quick?" with a smirk on his lips, he asked blatantly.

geez, this guy is so confident. i never knew he could be like this despite of having a sight of him being cold before.

"psh, you wish." i rolled my eyes, and said, "i'm not gonna ask again." before turning my back on him to open the door.

"i'm going now!" he reminded me as i replied, not boring my eyes at him, "yeah sure bye!"

i jumped on the couch where jisung was laying down which caught the boy off guard. "where's hyung?" he asked.

"he has to go somewhere." i replied, munching the potato chips.

"where?" mark asked, snapping his head towards me.

"and that's already none of my business." i said, no emotions evident in my eyes.

i guessed it was urgent since he looked like he needs to get going after checking his phone, and i shouldn't mingle in whatever his business is.

i stared at the white ceiling above me, and i smiled... abruptly.
was it because i was overwhelmed with so much joy?

i guess it is.

i smiled again.

it was nice meeting you again, sungwon...
