Ruin Me || Jihan

Chapter 5

"So there's this girl." Shua started.

And within that moment, Jeonghan knew that he wouldn't like it.

"Wow good for you." He forcefully smiled then Joshua cut him off. "Wait, I'm not yet done. She's a member of a famous girl group. Remember when we had our guesting last month? She asked for my number."

Now what do I have to say to him? Congrats?

All Jeonghan knows is that he wasn't really happy about it. This was the very first time Shua talked about things like this because he wasn't the type to be romantically inclined with other people.

"My baby Shua is already a man now, huh?" He then pinched Shua's cheeks.

"So what are your plans? You know that we can't date, right?" Jeonghan was just concerned that maybe it'll ruin Shua's career and he just can't afford that.

What startled him then was when Shua suddenly burst into tears as he laughed until he was already holding his stomach. Tears were evident on his eyes and he can barely breathe as he spoke.

"Plans? Date?" He laughed in between. He gestured Jeonghan to wait and tried to recover from his laugh as he wiped his tears.

He really went nuts.

Weird expression was now plastered on Jeonghan's face.

"Oh, so this is funny to you now? Do you think it's a matter you can take on lightly? Is this just a joke to you? You're unbelievable." Now, Jeonghan was already pissed and he stood up to leave.

I am so close to killing him. God, help me.

When he was about to leave, Shua grabbed him and shoved him back to his seat. Shua can't help but smile and his smile now turned to a grin.

"What are you talking about, Han? What's getting you so worked up? We aren't dating." Shua then took a sip from his iced americano.

"Then why are you telling me this?" You can hear the frustration from Han's voice.

"But why are you mad?" Shua replied.

Why am I mad? This dumbass. Why wouldn't I be mad?

"Because you think that this is just a joke when it can ruin your career. Your career if you care. And it just seems like you don't even give a fuck. How's that?" He snapped.

"Listen carefully, Han. I am telling you this because I want to hear what you will say. Also, remember that I promised you that you'll be the first one to know."

"What's with my say on it?" Han replied.

"Okay, I was just asking for an advice. If you were me, what would you do?"

You can't of course.

"I mean it's up to you as long as you're happyㅡas long as you know how to not get caught and how you'll handle things if ever. That's a big responsibility" Jeonghan meant it.

Shua smiled and grabbed Han's face then he stretched out its cheeks.

"Is this what YOUR experience tells you?" Emphasis on the word "your" Jeonghan just rolled his eyes.

"Whatever helps you sleep at night."

"Then I'd do what I'd want to do." Shua's reply. "She was fun to be friends with, I mean she's a really funny person."

So that's why you're always smiling like an idiot.

"Not until she told me that she likes me. I mean what's not to like?" Shua wriggled his brows and laughed. Jeonghan then again rolled his eyes.

He's so full of himself.

"But on a serious note, I don't think I can reciprocate her feelings." He sounded really serious.

"Then tell her. You can't give her false hopes."

"Man, I just want friends."

"You've got a lot of friends. I think there's no more room for that." Jeonghan laughed.

"Oh, so we're friends?" The smile on Han's face vanished.

Huh?
