Open for Business | JAEHYUN

Chapter 16

"You should leave." Mark said as he noticed Jaehyun entering the office.

"I need to explain." Jaehyun tried to reason with him but Mark shook his head.

"Hyung, as much as I respect you, I really don't think this is a good idea." Mark said as he tried to stop Jaehyun. Jaehyun pushed the boy away, walking passed him. Mark quickly ran past him but noticed he was stopped by someone else.

"Jaehyun, leave the office right now." Johnny said sternly. Jaehyun sighed, glancing back one more time before leaving.

...

"Hyung, is it true?" Jaemin asked his underboss as Jaehyun slipped into the passenger seat.

"Is what true?" Jaehyun asked, buckling his seatbelt.

"That you're engaged to the model?" Jaemin asked. Jaehyun sighed.

"Just focus on the road ahead, will you?" Jaehyun said. Jaemin looked back onto the road, deciding not to question further.

...

"Hey, are you alright in there?" Johnny asked, knocking on the door of Jenna's bedroom. It had become a pattern. Jenna would get out of bed, quietly make herself breakfast, and go to work with Johnny. At the office, Jenna would not speak to either him or Mark unless it was strictly business related. Once work was over, the two of them would go home. Jenna would make them dinner and once dinner was over, she would lock herself in her room until the next day. Johnny sighed, as he gave up, making his way downstairs. He stared at the golden invitation on the counter.

To Mr. and Miss. Seo,

You are cordially invited to the engagement part of:

Jeong Jaehyun and Park Inhye

Congratulations to the couple!

The address and timings were on the the bottom. Johnny sighed getting a glass of water for himself. He suddenly heard a bedroom door open, footsteps walking down the stairs.

"Hi." Jenna said, staring at her brother. Johnny stared back at her, glass of water in his hands. Johnny was surprised to see his sister, wearing grey sweatpants and a black hoodie, hood over her head. She pushed him aside to get a glass of water for herself.

"You've been ignoring me for days." Johnny said, turning to face the girl.

"You're annoying." Jenna simply said, sitting on the stool. Her eyes turned towards the golden invitation.

"I was going to throw that away." Johnny said, picking it up but an arm stopped him.

"Don't." Jenna said, pulling Johnny back.

"Why not?" Johnny asked her. Jenna held the invitation in her hands, eyeing the gold black cursive writing.

"I think we should go." Jenna said. Johnny looked at her surprised.

"What, aren't you his best friend?" Jenna asked him. Johnny hesitated before nodding.

"Yeah but like...." His voice trailed off.

"Okay, it's settled then." Jenna said, tossing the invitation down.

"Why are you so happy all of a sudden?" Johnny said, following the girl as she went up to her room.

"It's a party, Johnny. You know what that means." Jenna said, winking at her brother. The realization hit Johnny as Jenna entered her room, opening up her large closet.
