番外四

one day, during the month hongjoong was punishing seonghwa by giving him the silent treatment, jongho had asked the smaller man a question.

"hyung, why didn't you put out a missing person's report at the police station?"

"... what?"

"I'm asking you hyung, why didn't you put out a missing person's report when seonghwa hyung didn't come back after 24 hours? the police could have handled it for you."

hongjoong stares at jongho, who is currently working on something on his computer, and doesn't say a word, slowly taking a sip of coffee out of his mug.

i can't exactly say that I wallowed in sorrow so much I totally forgot that existed. that would make me look stupid.

"just... wait jongho didn't you say the other day you and yeosangie got into a fight? what happened?"

"well that's-"

and with that, hongjoong safely escaped from the question, and successfully changed the topic.

seonghwa, who just so happened to hear the conversation while cleaning the house, chuckles to himself quietly.

that missing person's report wouldn't have gotten through application anyways.

seonghwa thinks to himself as he continues to clear out the rubbish.

i have people even in the police after all. can't have anyone finding out who i am and my tracks.

and ever since that day, the question wasn't raised a single time ever again.

seonghwa also made sure jongho knew how to keep his mouth shut.
