"So you are leaving today..." Juyeon pouted after watching Chanhee finished to pack his things.
Chanhee nodded with a soft smile, he glanced at Juyeon.
"Can't you stay longer?" Juyeon seemed to plead, his eyes were glistening and full of hope: Chanhee could not say no. Job was holding him back and there were two kids he needed to look after.
"I can't. Sorry, but three of us might burden you more." Chanhee was apologetic. He looked at somewhere else. Juyeon was his weakness, if he locked his eyes with Juyeon, he wouldn't be sane enough to make a rational decision.
"You see, you need to prepare food for us, you have no space to sleep and you can't have fun." Chanhee reasoned out to persuade Juyeon.
"But, I don't mind! Really! And they are most welcomed too. Sangyeon hyung loves kids, Sunwoo will have new friends!" Juyeon was determined to not letting Chanhee go.
Chanhee sighed. "No, Juyeon. Listen here you giant," Chanhee tip-toed and cup Juyeon's cheeks, "We'll run on each other very often and I always can visit you, you know that right? Plus, your cousin works there. You can ask him about me." Chanhee smiled.
Juyeon pouted again but he shrugged and nodded. "Guess, this is our goodbye." He stood against the door and waved at Chanhee. "I will see you soon!" He immediately smiled as Chanhee looked back at him.
Chanhee waved to him with a heavy heart.
Chanhee, Eric and Hwall arrived at their booked homestay - 199X Funk. Despite its location, the interior design was no joke and it gave some kind of retro vibes.
"Hi, I am Lee Hwitaek but you can call me Hui! I supposed you are from Mood Indigo?" The receptionist greeted them cheerfully.
Chanhee nodded. He bowed to the older one and forced Hwall and Eric to bow too since both of them did not pay attention to him.
"Ah, you must've been Juyeon's hyung cousin!" Eric exclaimed excitedly after he noticed the name at the table.
Hui sheepishly grinned. "Yes, it's me. So I guess...." he pointed at Chanhee, "It was you that he keeps talking about."
Sure, Hui was generous with smile and it was his ethic to treat their customers with care but the way he smiled now was a bit creepy to Chanhee.
"Awe, we see!" Hwall and Eric were in uproar but immediately shut their mouths as they saw Chanhee's dead glare to them.
"Let me show you the rooms!" He led the way with a hand gesturing to follow his steps.
After getting the room keys, Hui excused himself to do some jobs and now three of them were left with each other. Hwall and Eric were chatting about unrelated things of job while Chanhee was getting bored.
"Kids, I am going out." Chanhee took out his cameras and phone, Eric and Hwall were unbothered and Chanhee wasn't sure if they noticed him going out.
Chanhee strode to the back side of the homestay and what he found was an interesting view of a beach. There were not many people there considering the chilly weather.
Chanhee raised his lens and then captured a few snapshotd prior adjusting it to panorama view of the beach.
And Chanhee just had to forget his sweater. He had runny nose and the sea breeze was twice colder than usual - he was always in bad luck no matter what.
He was trying to focus but his runny nose distracted him very much. He rubbed his hands for heat, and he forgot to bring his gloves too.
"I can't believe you are this forgetful."
Chanhee is alerted by a sudden cover on his shoulder - someone had wrapped him in a padding and Juyeon turned up infront of him, he slowly reached for Chanhee's hand and clasped their hands together.
"Wow, you find me so fast." Chanhee was stunned for sure, but he expected Juyeon to nag him.
Juyeon smiled, he somewhat took it as a compliment. When he smiled, his liptails were upturned and Chanhee found it very cute and endearing to watch.
"Did you come alone?" Chanhee looked around, "Oh wait, don't tell me you actually walked all the way here?" Chanhee gasped.
"Nope, Sangyeon hyung drove me here. Sunwoo is here too!" Juyeon excitedly exclaimed. He pointed to a certain place - Chanhee squinted his eyes at the distance and saw three boys were squatting in circle, digging something with dead tree branch. And Sangyeon was behind them to observe, with both of his hand at the back and his kind eye smile that seemed like their sort of guardian.
They looked like a family.
"Are you visiting your cousin?" Chanhee raised his brows while clearing his throat, trying to not sound awkward as possible.
Juyeon shook his head. "Sangyeon hyung supplied things here so I came to help - since I knew you'd be here." He grinned.
Chanhee felt he did not need a padding anymore - Juyeon was too straightforward that he could feel his cheeks burning hot.
