Memoirs Of The Past ( On Going )

MP24

It was Saturday morning and Fourth looks like a zombie in his current state. He has dark circles around his eyes and a shaggy morning hair. It clearly shows that he didn't sleep well last night. Thinking about what happened yesterday is the reason for all of this.

"Aish!...that jerk!"

He grumbled before getting off his comfy bed and start the day. He still has a shop to operate and being late is a no-no. He went straight to his bathroom to do his morning routine.

He decided to brush his teeth first. He took his toothbrush, put an adequate amount of toothpaste, and start brushing his teeth. While looking at his reflection in the mirror, memories of yesterday's talk with Gemini came rushing in.

"I want to take full responsibility for that night."

Gemini sternly announces after a long silence, making Fourth to raise his brow. He couldn't believe what just happened.

"What 'taking responsibility' are you talking about? Look, I left because I don't want to be the reason for ruining your engagement with Minji. Besides, I lost nothing, I'm a guy you know."

Fourth tried to reason out. He does feel something towards his boss slash best friend, yes, and even as much as he wanted to have his attention to himself, he doesn't want to drag him into his world. He already experienced his share of all the hardships and he would never dare to make Gemini run through it.

"No! I...I was rough to you that night. I was careless and Fourth, I am not in a relationship with Minji. Who told you that?"

"Why? Wasn't it right? It comes out naturally every time we see both of you together." Fourth sighed. "Gem...please. This is the best thing to do."

"No Fourth! Listen, I only used Minji to make you jealous somehow. She was not my fiance but my ex from college." Gemini explained in panic.

"You being with Shun is killing me out of jealousy." Gemini continued. "I was so jealous that it is already affecting my mood of the day. I can't concentrate at work because my mind was occupied by the thoughts of you being intimate with each other."

Gemini walk closer and hold both of Fourth's hands.

"I can't understand what was really happening to me but not until that awesome night where you became mine." He paused a bit then he dragged the back of Fourth's palms into his lips. The younger was so shock and the unrhythmical heartbeat of his heart is worsening the situation even more.

"The way my body reacts just by touching your soft skin and how my heart yearns for that sweet lips of yours made me realize something. I like you Fourth....so damn much." Gemini confessed almost crying.

Fourth, on the other hand, was so damn happy upon hearing it. So happy that he almost forgot how to breathe but why do this damn tears of his keep on falling? He should be smiling right?

Ah...yes...he is crying so hard because he needs to reject Gemini.

"No. You are just confused. Maybe your feelings are just out of guilt. Just go home okay. You have a company to run and many people are relying on you for them to feed their families. No worries, what happened between us is just pure lust. Nothing more."

"What?!! I am not confused. I like you!"

Gemini harshly snapped. He can't believe that he will be rejected right away after a heartfelt confession but Fourth just shakes his head.

"You're handsome, rich, and has a bright future ahead of you. You deserve to be with a woman like Minji not with a gay guy like me."

"No! Stop saying that-" / "Shsssh"
