Tell Me The Secret

Part 8: The Return of Duo

Kai mumbling by his own in the corner of the room. He was on his phone. Dialling over someone but no answers. He was total anxious and start cursing.

"Kai!"

The mother called out from the door. "Let's go."

Kai look at her, still anxious.

"In 10. You go first."

He replied. Back with the phone call. The mother nod, close the door.

Kai trying to reach Tae-min but hopeless. He bet Tae-min already ran or turn himself from Kai. Too many thoughts in mind.

He then dial for someone else.
The first call was a voicemail, but the second call was a succeed.

"Hello, Minho."

Kai called out for Minho.

"Kai, what you want?"
"Do you keep in touch with Tae-min?"
"When?"
"No I mean this few days?"
"No, I'm not in range."

Kai frowned.

"What do you mean?"

"I'm not in the country."

Kai blurted. Widen open his eyes. How the fuck Minho not here! Like the plan to kill him should be done by this week.

"When you will be home?"

"I won't."

There's a beat of silent. Kai already bitten his thumb, his eyes moving fast. The feet of him couldn't stay still.

"Kai, you should stop all this thing."

"The fuck I won't stop."

In his head, there's a chance Tae-min seek for Minho's help and he told everything about the plan to him.
But second, Tae-min might be running away as he's afraid to kill his bestfriend.

Minho sigh, continued.

"You going to meet your match soon."

"Fuck excuse me?"

"I warn you, Kim Jong In. And when your world turn down, no one going to hold you anymore."

The call end.

Kai in dazed. He look out to the window. His forehead sweating. The hands shaking. The head suddenly feel heavy.

Kai enter the main hall with a heavy heart. His head still working over Minho's warning. He couldn't control his face.

"Jong In!"

Kai turn to the voice of a young man who's call out for him. Suho waving to him, as a sign to come to the table.
He faking his smile, walking confidently towards his brother and the woman he loved.

The event continues with the main purpose which was the announcement of their father retirement.

Gosh, Kai said. One more problem add. Thinking about all the privileges he going to lose soon.
The event proceed and Kai still in anxiety.

"Are you okay?"

Krystal who sat next to him, with a had to feeling ask him. Kai looked at her.

He lean closer to her, whisper

"Of course my dear."

He evilly smile. Krystal startled. Quickly look at Suho who still in a conversation with his friend.

Along the event, the parents walk down the hall, saying hello to everyone they pass until the Chanyeol's father came and said hello.

"Sir."
"My friend!"

Both of the old man hugging each others, witnessed by the wife, smiling.

"Thank you for your loyalty over this too many years."
The Prime Minister said, squeezing his friend's hand.

"Thank you too sir. For being such a strong leader."

Both of them chuckled over each others compliments.

"I heard you coming with your son."
He said while longing his head, searching for his friend one and only proud son.

"Chanyeol?"
"Yes, yes Park Chanyeol! He do visit me last time."
"Wait."

Chanyeol's father look for him in between the crowd and call out for him. He then speed walk to the fathers.

"Sir."

Chanyeol bow. Shaking hand with the Prime Minister.

"Yes yes!"

He run his hand on Chanyeol's back. Filling with compliments.
"It's such a shame I don't have another daughter. Or else I'm going to marry her with you."
Follow with a laugh.

"Come let's go meet my sons."

He invited them to the table where the three children sat.

And the encounter between Kai and Chanyeol will start.
