"hyunjin"

"hyunjin?"

"hyunjin.."

"HYUNJIN!"

the boy jumped in his seat, startled by the voice. he glanced to his side and saw his sister.

"what do you want?" he groaned.

"jongho said he passed you something to give to me" hyejin said dryly. hyunjin blinked in realisation.

"oh right. hold on" the boy digged into his bag before finally pulling out a small box wrapped neatly with a ribbon. "here"

hyejin grinned at the gift, grabbing it out of hyunjin's hold. she sprinted back to her room, shutting it close. hyunjin rolled his eyes at that.

soon, he heard hyejin's loud voice. "jongho sunbae. it's so pretty!! omg i love itt"

hyunjin groaned. "shut up and respect the solo community!" he yelled.

"if you weren't such a coward and actually give minhee a chance then you wouldn't be in the solo community!" hyejin yelled back at him.

"children! you two better be quiet or i'll hit you with my spatula!" their mother yelled. hyunjin flinched. he's pretty sure she was in the kitchen.

the boy groaned yet again before lying flat on his face onto the bed.

"fuck my life"

hyejin on the other hand was video calling with her lovely boyfriend.

"i picked the right one" jongho grinned at the necklace the girl was wearing.

"nonetheless, you look pretty in everything" her cheeks flushed at his words, hiding them with her hair.

"aren't you going to sleep?" the boy asked.

"it's still early though. and i haven't had dinner yet" she giggled. jongho nodded, understanding. he placed his chin onto his palm, propping his elbow up before staring at the girl.

"what?" hyejin asked.

"nothing. just want to look at a beauty" he casually replied.

"ah sunbae stop that!" she pouted. jongho laughed.

"you know. we are together now yet you still call me sunbae" he pursed his lips. "are you senior-zoning me?"

she blinked awkwardly. "uhm then should i call you by name..?" she trailed off, low-key praying that it isn't what she thought it is.

"say jongho oppa"

at that, hyejin choked on air. she cleared her throat.

"uhh.." she cringed. 'i haven't even call him that yet, and here i am cringing'

"oh, come on! you call felix, jisung and seungmin, oppa. heck, you even started calling san oppa!!" he whined, plunging his face into a pillow, grumbling inaudible complaints non-stop.

"well would you look at the time! it's time for dinner byejonghooppaloveyou" hyejin hung up, not letting him to react to what she just said.

hyejin sighed in relief. her face felt warm. she took a look at the mirror and saw that her face was a bright red from embarrassment. she slapped her palms onto her cheek before screaming her lungs out.

"hyejin. shut! up!"
