Eight

"You know when I was like twenty," Mr. Huang started as the siblings hummed indicating that they were listening to the older man. Six of them were seated on the table with Mr. and Mrs. Huang on either side and Haechan sitting next to Jeno while Renjun sat next to Lucas.

It was dinner time and they were having their dinner when Mr. Huang started the story. Renjun groaned a bit rolling his eyes as Lucas stifled a laugh at his brother's action. They knew where the story was heading. It was the love story of their parents and clearly, enough Renjun wasn't interested. Out of boredom or the fact that he heard it multiple times to even know how it goes on. 

"I was working with my uncle as an apprentice. It wasn't that bad but it wasn't pleasant either. It was quite tiring and I found myself looking for another job." he said as Jeno hummed looking quite interested. On the other hand, his sibling had his eyes on Renjun who was sitting opposite him. A slight smirk played on his lips as he stared intently at the other.

Upon catching the other's eyes Renjun gulped a bit before clearing his throat. It was an interruption and clearly enough Mr. Huang wasn't pleased.

"Dad, I don't really think the Lees will be interested in knowing about your love story let alone us. Spare them please." Even though he mentioned them it was obvious that he was tired of hearing the story for the nth time. Chuckling Lucas shook his head while Mrs. Huang smacked her son's head gesturing him to shut up. 

"That's okay uncle. Do continue! We're keen to know your story" was all Haechan replied with as Renjun blinked his eyes. Winking at the older Haechan diverted his eyes from the older towards his dad who held a wide grin. 

"So as I was saying I was looking for another job...that's when I found out her dad was running a cafe. Well, I wouldn't have applied for it if it weren't for her! You had to see their mom in her 20s! She was the most beautiful woman ever!'' the way their father described their mother sure got Lucas all mushy. He couldn't help but think about mark whom he had his eyes laid on from the very first day they met. On the other hand, Mrs. Huang was blushing so hard at her husband's words. She was lucky enough to have him as her husband.

Renjun on the other side was judging them as a whole, giving them stinky eyes. He knew his brother must be thinking about Mark as well. Sighing in single he looked back at his food before poking it with his chopsticks uninterested. 

Suddenly as if something has hit him he jolted up a bit earning a look from his brother who snapped out of his thoughts due to that action.

Renjun's eyes widened as he turned his face towards Haechan who seemed to be wearing a smug look.  Biting his lip Renjun looked away obviously creeped out by the other's actions. Clutching his chest he leaned in to sip the soup only for him to jolt up once again.

This surely got his father's attention. Stopping his talk he looked towards Renjun who seemed uncomfortable.

"Jun, are you okay?" he asked as Renjun nodded a bit faking a smile.

"I-I'm fine dad" glaring at the person in front of him he gestured to his father to continue his talk. Mrs. Huang who was concerned brought a cup of water.

"Honey, drink this," she said patting his back as Renjun mumbled a thank you. placing the cup down he looked at Haechan who seemed to be looking behind his back. Due to his instincts, he turned to look around once again feeling something crawl up his legs. holding his breath he looked down only to see the younger male's legs crawling up his own. Eyes widening he pushed the leg away before backing away a bit earning a look from Lucas.

"Why are you moving away?"

"None of your business" Renjun muttered though it was audible earning a gasp from the older.
