CHAPTER 29

THIRD PERSON POV

Sunoo was tired after a long day of

overwork at the campus. He plopped

on the bed and grabbed the pillow to

take a bit of rest before dinner. The

whole week was tiring for him due to

exams and yeah due to unstoppable

teasing from Sunghoon too.

"I want to sleep~," He whined to no

one and closed his eyes but soon his

moment of rest got disturbed by his

phone buzzing.

"Who is this?" He grabbed the phone

with half opened eyes and looked up

at the caller's id. It was a new number

so he picked it up.

"Sunoo! How are you, sweetie?"" A

girl beamed from the other side and in

surprise Sunoo's eyes opened like a

saucer. He put the phone right in front

of his eyes and looked at the number

again. Just when he was about to end

the call he heard,

"Hey, it's me. Your new friend wonyoung stephan. Forgot me already?"

"Ahh. Hi Ms. Wonyoung. Sorry, I was just a little surprised. Btw how are you?

"I am good. Well, I was planning for

shopping with you.. are you free this

weekend? I know your exams are

ending this week. So please don't say

no.. please~"

"Um.. I will tell you after asking Mr.Park" Sunoo hesitated in making a

decision.

"Oh come on. Don't tell him as he will be

out of the city this weekend due to some

business. Let's buy some surprise gift

for him before he comes back."

"O.. ok." He sighed defeated.

"I will pick you up at weekend."

With that, she ended the call.

Sunoo didn't want to go with her

but the idea of giving a surprise to

Sunghoon hit him. A sweet smile crept

on his lips but soon faded.

"Why he is going to another city?

And he didn't tell me about that." He

pouted at the thought.

...

"Why you are so quiet?" Sunghoon

asked Sunoo who was kind of playing with his food... a pout never leaving his plump lips.

"Not in the mood." Sunoo showed him his rare bratty side and Sunghoon's eyes widened at his words.

"Angel!" Sunghoon used his dominant

voice and Sunoo whined with the same pout.

"Don't you angel me! You are going to

another city, leaving me alone here

and you didn't even bother to tell me

about it. Wow. now you are talking

like you are the most innocent person

sitting here." He huffed at the end

while Sunghoon was beyond surprised

but his mind stopped on one thing.

"How do you know that I am going

somewhere?" Sunghoon asked in a

serious tone as this was a kind of a

very secret mission, not his business

deal. No one knew about that except

for Heeseung as he was going to

accompany him for the deal. This

was a kind of Mafia meeting and he

was totally surprised when he heard

Sunoo talking about that.

"What? Now you are more focused

on how I know that.? I am mad."

Sunoo pouted again, pressuring on

the word mad, ignoring a glare from

Sunghoon.

"Sunoo, I am asking who told you

about that?" His voice was low but

deep and Sunoo gulped hearing his

dominant voice.

"Um.. I. Don't you have a business

trip? You mentioned weeks ago that

you will go." Sunoo tried to defend

himself as he almost got caught and

he didn't want to tell himn about Wonyoung.

Thanks to his memory that he quickly

remembered that Sunghoon once mentioned his business trip.

"Well. Yeah, it's a business trip and

you know you are not alone here. Just

don't roam around when I won't be

here. Ok?" He quickly nodded like an

obedient child. Sunghoon thought to

use the word business trip.

"Gotta go. Wish me good luck with

my last exam!" Sunoo after finishing his breakfast took his bag from the chair and looking up at Sunghoon, again chirped.

Sunghoon smiled, looking up at his

innocent love, and patted his head

affectionately.

"Good luck to my angel.. take care."

He kissed his forehead and Sunoo

closed his eyes with a smile. He silently

nodded and left while waving like a

child, feeling all the lucks struck him

after that wish, overdramatic, right?

...

On campus, he was greeted by Seojun

who quickly hugged him again.

"So what's your plan this weekend?"

Seojun asked him and Sunoo told

him everything that was planned with

Wonyoung. Seojun asked him if he can join and he happily agreed.

When Sunoo was back after his last exam, he was practically flying everywhere.

"Ri-kiiIiI ~" He sang while skipping

towards the kitchen where Ni-ki

was cutting vegetables.

Sunoo back hugged him tightly.

"Woah! Finally, you are free." Ni-ki

left the knife and patted his head with

a smile. Sunoo nodded furiously,

his boxy smile on full display.

"Nishimura i am leaving. Don't let him

go anywhere and if he insists, go with

him!" They heard Sunghoon's voice

from a distance, who definitely didn't

notice Sunoo's presence in the mansion.

Sunoo quickly skipped seeing Sunoo quickly skipped seeing Sunghoon and back-hugged him too, halting him in his track.

"Don't go~" He whined and a smile

formed on Sunghoon's face in an

instant when the sweet voice melted in

his ears.

"Angel.. I have to. But promise that

you will take care of yourself." He

gently said to the younger. Sunoo took a deep breath but nodded Somehow.

Sunghoon took his hands in his own

and kissed his knuckles softly, then

the back of his palms, his wrists, and

finally his jaw. Pink was already

dusted on Sunoo's cheeks, causing

his love to chuckle at his cuteness.

Soon Sunghoon left leaving a whining

Sunoo who can never get used to the distance between them.

...

Jungwon was sulking in his office he wanted to throw everything but he can't.. because in the end, he had to settle again. Duh!

"What's Wrong with you Jungwon?" A

voice echoed in his office that he didn't

want to hear.

"Not again." He muttered under his

breath.

"You can tell me, what is bothering

you," Jay said while taking a se in front of Jungwon who just gave him a glare.

"What? You want to eat me with your

eyes?" Jay joked when he saw Jungwon continuously glaring at him.

"You know what is bothering me? Why

you are keeping me from going back to

Seoul? Please let me go.. please!" Jungwon pleaded but Jay just shook his head.

After their trip to abroad, Jay gave

him an apartment and took his mother

there, leaving no reason for him to

leave. But still, Jungwon always insists

that he wants to go to Seoul.

"Your mother is here. Now, why do you

want to go there?"

"None of your business, Mr. Park. You

don't own me. I am free to do whatever

I want and you can not stop me from

doing so!" Jungwon slammed his hands

on the table...full of anger as he was

getting more and more frustrated with

thoughts of Sunoo. It's been months

and yet he didn't get any news of his

only best friend.

Jay was looking at him with wide

eyes and he took a little time to calm

himself.

"I don't own you but I love you. And I

can't let you go anywhere." The older

said so calmly in low voice but his

words were louder than bombs  that directly hit on Jungwon's heart.

"W-what?"

"-But why?" Jungwon was beyond

surprised.

"Love never sees why and how. I

thought you are wise enough to get to

know my feelings but unfortunately,

you never took an effort. I just wanted

to tell you the truth..." He sucked in a

deep breath and continued.

"I am in a Mafia and as you are close

to me, all of my enemies know about

you. I am keeping you here so that I

can protect you from them. So please

try to understand, it's not wise to go

there alone." With that Jay left the

office while Jungwon was just sitting on

his chair wide-eyed, mouth ajar, face

red... fast heartbeat.

"Love?? Mafia?? Protect?? Am I

dreaming?? Arghhhhhhh!" He grabbed

his hair tightly, pulling some strands.

It was too much to take in within a few

abrupt moments. He just wanted to

escape but he knew that he can't.

...

Sunoo was lucky enough as Ni-ki

and kang-min were out for some reason

and other men were busy with their

work. He quietly changed his clothes

and went to Sunghoon's room as his

room lacked a window. Using his

childhood skills, he jumped out of the

room and succeeded in escaping the

mansion.

On few blocks away from the mansion,

Wonyoung was waiting for him in her car.

When she saw him running towards

her car, she quickly waved at him

from the window and Sunoo entered the car while huffing.

"Wow.. it.. was fun," He said in

between his huffs and Wonyoung smiled.

"So are you ready for more fun?"

Sunoo quickly nodded, feeling excited and Wonyoung started the engine.

The drive was full of fun as loud songs

were playing in the car and both were

singing along, laughing, and cheering.

In the mall, Wonyoung took him to many expensive shops and even bought some things for him too. Sunoo was enjoying her company completely oblivious to her true intentions.

"So what about a surprise gift for Sung-

I mean Mr. Park?" Sunoo asked shyly after some time.

"Oh yeah. Let's take these." She pointed

towards a very expensive shop where

Some rare kinds of jackets were hanging.

"What are these?" He asked innocently

once he entered the shop and looked

up close at the jackets.

"These are rare collections Sunoo.

These lines are made up of gold and

here buttons are of pure diamonds."

She explained in excitement.

"Yes Sir. It's a really rare collection

and gold and diamonds are pure."

The shopkeeper also explained and

Sunoo was just looking at the jacket in awe. No doubt the jacket was reaming expensive just by the looks  and rare designs made of gold were so much more attractive.

"This will look awesome on him." His

fingers delicately traced the fabric with a happy glint in his eyes and wonyoung heard his words.

"Yeah, he always likes that kind of

stuff." She commented like she knows

him better than anyone. Sunoo felt a little jealous of her words but shrugged.

"How much?" He asked from Shopkeeper., very excited.

"100 million." Sunoo choked on air.

"Isn't so much expensive?"

He whispered to Wonyoung who felt

embarrassed by his reaction.

"Sunoo what do you expect from this shop.. moreover this is antique. I am sure he will be more than happy. Just take it." She compiled and Sunoo nodded hesitantly.

He already brought the card that

Sunghoon gave him and to his luck, it

was worth taking the card. He handed

the card to the Shopkeeper who

quickly accepted and did his work.

"It's my first time to use his money like

that." He mumbled, now feeling kind

of bad for spending his money.

"It's ok. You are using his money for

him.. so no worries."

Wonyoung told him that she had to take a call So she left him alone in the middle of the mall. Right then he got a message

from Seojun and soon he was standing

right in front of him, giving him a Sweet smile.

"Wow, that's fast!"" Sunoo beamed

and Seojun quickly hugged him.,

"Yeah. I am fast. Well sorry for being

late.. where is your other friend?"

"Um. She left for a call." But soon

Sunoo got a message from wonyoung

that she had to go home due to some

emergency.

"Actually she left me." Sunoo

pouted while looking at his phone

Screen.

"I am craving ice cream," He suddenly

mentioned to Seojun who was

suspecting something but smiled at his

Words.

"Wish granted your highness," He

teased him but got a smack on his arm.

"I told you not to call me highness!"

Sunoo  yelled at him with a frown

and a few people gave hima weird

look who was passing by.

"Your crew is watching you. Your

Highness~" Seojun whispered and

Sunoo quickly open his mouth but shut it when he saw people actually glaring at him.

He stomped towards an ice cream

parlor, trailing behind seojun who

ordered for both. They sat at a table

with 3 cups of ice cream, 1 for seojun

and 2 for Sunoo.

Sunoo showed him the jacket that he bought for Sunghoon. He was talking nonstop about many things, like when he sawa kid fighting with a shopkeeper for a plushie and a man who was looking at him like he stole his kidney. He was laughing and enjoying himself while seojun was just listening to him with a smile. Suddenly Seojun leaned over Sunoo and the other male stiffened, blinking rapidly at the close proximity.

Softly and gently, Seojun wiped the

ice cream from the corner of his lips

while looking deeply at his lips. The

angle was good for the one person who

was smirking while taking continuous

clicks of two boys, just to create the scene in the eyes of Spectator.
