Chapter 24

S E C R E T  A F F A I R

Jaehyun's POV

I looked at the list posted on the wall, fingers crossed behind my back.

Oh please! Oh please! Let my name be here! I thought endlessly as I looked for my name. I auditioned for a musical show.

For the last few weeks, my schedule hasn't been that packed, unlike Haemin who had a dating show and Jieun who are now preparing for their wedding, let's just say I'm a little left out.

A friend of mine, very special friend, suggested I should audition on a musical show. Since I've got nothing to do yet (because it will be still three month's time for us to start working for our comeback) that's why I agreed. I mean I love to be in a musical. When I was a kid, my mother always brought me to musical shows. My favorite were The Three Muskateers and Disney Princess. Since then, I've always imagined myself performing on stage.

After so many years, I was able to locate my name on the main actors list.

Wait, what?

I rubbed my eyes and pinched my arm just in case I was dreaming.

Main Actors

Kim Kibum
Kim Heechul
Kim Jaehyun
Son Naeun
Lee Taemin
Jo Kwangmin
Lee Chanhee
Yoo Youngjae

I realized it was really true. I jumped and giggle in glee, earning a few stares.

Yes! I'm doing a musical show! Oh yeah! Oh yeah! I mentally danced in happiness when my phone rang.

자기야 ♥ (Jagiya)

I smiled as I pushed the receive call button.

"Hello?" I said.

"Jagi~ Did you found out the results?" A husky voice said from the other line. I can't help but smile.

"Oppa....I got the main role!" I squealed over the phone.

"Really? Omo! I know you could do it! My Jaehyunnie's so talented. Let's celebrate!" he beamed, and I blushed when he said 'My Jaehyunnie'

"Where are you right now? I want to celebrate with you if you're free of course. No ones' in the dorm. Haemin is at Jeju and Jieun is planning for her wedding" I said hopefully.

"Of course! I'm here at Xienshen Bubble Tea Shop. Let me pick you up" he said.

"Oh no! It's okay. I'll just go there by myself" I said.

"Okay, fine. Take care, Jagiya! Love you" he said.

"Mmhh, love you too!" I said and the line went off.

☆☆☆

I fixed my cap and my mouth mask. Even though the shop is located at the front of SMEnt and probably a lot of k-idols go here, I can't risk my identity. Exo have many sasaeng fans and I want to avoid scandals.

I entered the shop, that is by the way, heavily guarded to keep outsiders out. I removed my mask and showed my face to the guard. He nodded and opened the door for me. Okay, even though there are many guards outside, the shop's wall are made of glass so I'm not taking chances.

I scanned the people in the shop until I recognized him by his back. As I made my way to him, I could see that he had company.

"Sehun-ah!" I called out.

He turned his back and smiled as soon as he saw me.

"Jagi, sit here!" He patted the seat beside him.

"Hello, oppas!" I greeted Luhan, Chanyeol and Baekhyun oppa who were with him.

They beamed at me.

"Hello, Jaehyun-ah! We've heard from Sehun you got the main role! Congratulations!" Luhan congratulated me.

"We'll definitely watch it, right Baekhyun?" Chanyeol nudged him on his side, who's seemed preoccupied.

"Uh...what? Oh, yeah of course!" Baekhyun came back into reality and smiled.

"Thank you! I'll really do my best!" I said cheerfully.

"What do you want, Jagi?" Sehun whispered beside me as he wrapped his arm around my waist, pulling me closer to him. I blushed at the gesture.

"I'll have the same as yours" I told him. Sehun called the waiter and placed our orders.

We were waiting for our orders when someone's phone rang.

~Neon deondeon hage, neo, Hey!
Mister! Mister! (Nal bwa)
Mister! Mister! (Keuge baro, neo neo)~

All our heads turned towards Baekhyun whose blushing furiously.

"Hello?" Baekhyun took the call.

I heard muffled sounds but I can't understand it, not that I want to know their conversation. I'm not nosy, okay?

After a short while, Baekhyun ended the call just in time our orders arrived.

"Guys, sorry. I have to go now. Taeyeon wants me to come on their family dinner" Baekhyun's ears went red when as he explained.

"Aigoo...Go now! You don't want your girlfriend waiting for you" Luhan chuckled in delight.

Baekhyun bid his farewell and in a flash, he was gone.

"Oh how I wish I have a girlfriend" Chanyeol sighed.

"Your fans will be mad at you. They only want you to end up with Baekhyun!" Luhan snickered, making us all laugh.

"Well duh! It's the same case to you! They want you to end up with Sehun over here" Chanyeol mocked him.

"I could get used to it. Besides, Sehun's handsome" he winked at Sehun.

"Eeeeewww.....hyung! Don't be like that! My girlfriend's here!" Sehun complained, playfully covering my eyes.

I laughed.

"I was just joking!" Luhan defended.

"Jaehyun-ah, wanna go somewhere after this?" Sehun whispered beside me.

I nodded my head.
