KBIN - CALL ME K

KBIN DANCE CREW

The first feeling that hits Hung is an embarrassment. Whatever he often does to his hug pillow, he definitely did to K last night. The next feeling is guilt. If Hung used K for the whole night and then asked him to run errands for the whole day, K must be really tired right now. Hung mumbles:

- I'm so sorry, are you still sore? 

- No no no, I'm ok, don't be sorry. I just think that maybe it's better as we have to dance tomorrow. 

What does he mean? He thinks Hung will hug him again tonight or what? Although his lie doesn't sound so convincing, Hung did say it was only because of his birthday culture. Argh, the embarrassment hits Hung again, hard. Hung quickly turns his face, hoping that K doesn't see him blush. Hung puts the two new pillows in between, trying to stop himself from climbing to the other side of the bed. 

- You should go to sleep, we need to practice dancing tomorrow.

With a guilty look on his face, K slowly moves to the bed. It doesn't look good, Hung is facing the wall instead, K should do something to coax him:

- If the pillows are too hard, please just hug me. I'm totally ok with it. I'm being honest. Seriously. 

Hung is determined to earn tons tomorrow, he will then rent a much bigger house with 2 separate beds. Isn't K thinking Hung's mad because Hung cannot hug him? Arghhhhhhhh.

Hung gets up with a sigh of relief. The pillows are still in place, no hugging happened during the night it seems. K is sleeping, with his face facing Hung. Hung doesn't want to wake him up yet, he must have been really exhausted yesterday. Hung comes to the table, trying to come up with some ideas about the performance. He has thought about it a lot, people aren't willing to take the drink sample. Hung will need to choose a group of target customers, try to attract them first, then expand the market later. 

While K is still sleeping, Hung gives him a quick glance. Very handsome face, if they both form a duet, their visuals will surely attract lots of female customers. A song for women? It should be simple, cute, catchy, and especially able to convey the benefits of the product. The dance shouldn't be too hard, K might not be able to remember all the moves. Hung likes cats, so do most women, so maybe just imitating some cat moves will work wonders. Hung organized lots of Flashmobs during his High School. He helped his classmates with dancing, he's confident it shouldn't be hard to deal with K.  

Another mistake. K is truly a special case. Or maybe he's just not concentrating enough. Hung shows K the dance, only to hear a simple word: 

- Hotboy.

- What???

K might have thought he pronounced that newly learned English word wrong, he quickly speaks Japanese instead: 

- Kawaii, never mind, I didn't say anything important.

He thinks Hung doesn't know that word? Hung spent a decade watching animes! However, isn't it better to just pretend not to understand it? 

- So, you saw me dance already, can you repeat it? 

- Can Hanbin do it one more time? I'm sorry, I can't mesmerize it yet.

Unbelievable! This Batusi move is extremely simple. Just making a V sign with the index finger and the middle one, place it on one eye, move it slowly along with the head to a side, and then switch to the opposite side following the music. How could he not remember it when he was literally staring at Hung? 

It turns out K is not only bad at mesmerizing the moves, he cannot dance either. His body is so tense that he can't move freely. If K were 10cm shorter, it would make it so easier for Hung to teach. Hung has to stand on tiptoe constantly, his toes now hurt. And K looks guilty. 

- I'm sorry, this is the first time I dance, ever.

- It's ok, there are people who like dancing, and people who don't. But I try to make memorizing it fun for everyone. 

The burden seems to be lifted for K. The two of them start to do weird dances together, imitating a lion, a snake, a chicken, a penguin, whatever they can think of. But it still takes a while for K to do the cat moves. It takes efforts, K, don't worry. The cold K is gone when the music is on. Hung tries to gasp some air, he has been laughing so hard: 

- K, let's do it one more time. I'll sing and you dance to it, ok? 

Come in for a glass

Of cool lemon tea

For your stunning shape

And with some honey

To be

As lovely as a cat. 

Why, why did K blink at him? Hung didn't teach K that. Isn't it too dangerous to put K in the middle of the street? How can that duality be a thing? The cold-looking K is extremely cool but his cute self, oh, he might be kidnapped.
