After he said those words, my mind went blank.

Does he really love me?

Or is he just playing with me?

Why would a global idol like him, like a normal guy like me?

He looks at me, his eyes filled with hope, but he frowns when I don't respond.

Hyunjin: I'm sorry... I shouldn't have said that-

Jisung: Hyunjin! Seungmin! We found the bag!

I turn around and run to where the rest of the group is, eager to avoid the awkward situation between me and Hyunjin.

Seungmin: You guys found it? Did you find anything useful inside the bag?

Minho: No, except for this slip of paper. But it's written in some kind of code, I can't decipher that.

Hyunjin: Can I see the paper?

Minho nods and hands it to him.

Hyunjin looks at the paper for a while and looks back at Minho.

Hyunjin: You dipshit, you were holding it upside down the entire time. It's clearly an address, that too written in English. How much easier can this get.

Minho: Oh...

Everyone just laughs at Minho's stupidity and gets into the car so we can go to the place on the paper.

Minho gets back into the driver's seat, but this time, I take the passenger seat to avoid being next to Hyunjin.

I can see Hyunjin from the mirror, he looks so upset.

I shrug it off and just look out the window the whole drive there.

Minho stops the car and we all get out and stand in front of the old house.

Seungmin: Lixie, are you sure this is the right address?

Felix: Yeah, that's what the paper says.

Minho: So who wants to ring the doorbell? Obviously not Hyunjin, but any volunteers?

Chan: Watch and learn, children.

Chan smirks and unbuttons his shirt as he did for the receptionist, before walking up to the door.

Jeongin: Why is it always him?

We all look at Jeongin, who is pouting with his arms crossed again.

Jisung: Innie, there's nothing we can do about the fact that your man is the best with ladies.

Jeongin: But he's gay.

Jisung: Exactly, so they won't affect him. More the reason for you to trust him.

Jeongin: But-

The lady opens the door and looks at Chan.

Chan leans against the door and runs his hair through his hair.

Jisung: Damn Felix, your brother is so-

Minho: Jisung, you know you have a boyfriend right?

Jisung: Oh shoot, you're right.

We all laugh at Minho's jealousy and look back at Chan and the lady.

Suddenly, Chan motions for us to come over.

Jisung: Hyunjin, you stay here.

Hyunjin nods and we make eye contact for a split second before I look away and follow the others to the house.

After we get there, Chan introduces us to the lady.

Jeongin smiles and hugs Chan.

Lady: Why is that boy being so touchy? Who is he to you?

Chan: Huh, he's my... brother.

We all look at him with wide eyes, while the lady just laughs and places her arms around Chan's neck.

Chan: Oh, would you look at the weather! It seems like it will rain soon, I'm so sorry. We will meet again next time.

He turns around to leave and we look at him in confusion, not knowing what he's trying to do.

Lady: Wait! Come inside and have some tea. You can bring your friends and brother with you.

Chan smirks and turns around, replacing his smirk with a warm smile.

Chan: Thank you so much.

He motions for us to come inside.
