Smithereens

Chapter 4

When something is not for you, you know it immediately although you'll probably be in negation. When something is for you, you might not know it immediately though. Unfortunately in this story, people is not giving a damn f**ck about what's for them and what's not and bad decisions are being taken. Let's hope life will be fair and give our characters a happy ending.

***************

Bobby got to the club before everyone else, as usual, as his routine dictated. As soon as he opened the entrance the phone was ringing so loudly. As though never in his life had Bobby heard it before, he hurried and picked up.

_ Moshi, Moshi! (Saying hello in Japanese)

_ Bobby, it's me, Daesung. I need a favour from you.

_ What is it, uncle?

_ Song Yunhyeong got sick and he's not going there today. I don't know who to ask to cover him for the night.

_ Do you want me to check on someone specifically or...

_ No, no. It's going to be difficult to find someone so quickly. I was thinking about doing it myself but I already have another appointment._ Daesung remained quiet as if he were thinking deeply and then he promptly said _I know how you feel about all this but I believe it's time you take your place as a host.

_ Oh, no, I can't. Bobby answered without listening to anything else Dae might have said.

_ But... You're so stubborn! I got a feeling you'd do it incredibly fine. I hate your lack of confidence, my son.... Anyway, do it your own or got me someone with a good level but don't keep that place unattended.

_ Ok, uncle. Trust me on this.

_ Sure, I do. See you later.

_ Hey, uncle!

_ What is it?

_ Can I pay a visit to Yoyo?

_ Fine by me but ask him directly.

_ Okie

Bobby contacted Jaewon, who had worked as a host there before and now he was trying different business, he'd got the best intentions but nothing was really working for him. Bobby knew all this because they still remained friends along with Yunhyeong.

After some messages, Jaewon accepted to help temporarily. And later on they could pay a visit to Yun and spend the night all three together.

Bobby was feeling happy he solved the problem on time when someone came in. At first he thought it might be June but it was his boyfriend actually. Bobby felt a shiver all over his back spine when he saw Donghyuk standing there, this was the effect Donghyuk caused in him. Bobby felt weird, different, not in a negative way but it surely was a new sensation, nothing he had experienced before, not even when he was dating June.

_ Hello sweetheart, am I too early?_ Donghyuk asked expecting Bobby just jumped on him and hugged him.

_ No, it's ok_ Bobby blushed. _I'm happy to see you here... with no one around...

Donghyuk smiled cutely at Bobby and walked towards him to come closer.

_ I'm so glad to see you as well.

Donghyuk's eyes always seemed to be on fire when he stared at Bobby, but this time they seemed more like a chimney fire, something warm and cozy. Bobby felt, hmm loved? Yes, probably that was his feeling.

_ I can't help getting more and more fond of you, Bobby.

Bobby blushed completely, one couldn't tell but it was likely that he blushed from head to toe.
