Chapter 17: 16

“Song Sugyeom…is that true?”

Igyeom looked at Taewon and Sugyeom alternately in disbelief.

“He’s a total nutcase.”

“What do you mean nutcase! Hyung started it.”

Sugyeom angrily interrupted the conversation when he heard Taewon’s casual tone.

“If you were going to do that, why did you bite where everyone can see?”

“Hyung, how about what you did to me? An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth.”

“How is that an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth?”

“Hyung acted first and threw me on the bed.”

“Hey, tell it straight. When did I ever throw you on the bed?”

As the conversation continued, the atmosphere became more wildly flowing out of control.

The entire incident, which only Taewon and Sugyeom knew, flowed in an increasingly strange direction in the minds of the other three.

“Hyung, did you really do that…?”

“Ehm, I did. I’m a fiercer person than I look.”

Sugyeom proudly answered Yuchan’s question. From his point of view, it was to boast of yesterday’s victory, but Yuchan’s expression was colored with shock when he heard it.

“It’s not fierce, it’s weird, Sugyeom. Ordinary people don’t bite other people in bed, no, they don’t bite anyone anywhere.”

“Yesterday was a reasonable situation.”

Sugyeom said brazenly despite Taewon’s correction. He was so absorbed in eating his Miyeok-guk that he responded casually without reading the surrounding atmosphere.

Igyeom, Hansol, and Yuchan looked at the two people alternately with trembling eyes. Then, one after another, they sprang up from their seats.

The three’s tableware was already close to finished by the time Sugyeom came. He thought they had started eating before he woke up, so he didn’t sense anything strange.

In that way, Sugyeom finished his meal fighting with Taewon.

Although they had been arguing, Taewon said he would wash the dishes because Sugyeom was still in pain from having his wisdom tooth removed. As a result, Sugyeom entered his room by himself with a light heart.

“Sol, what’s the matter?”

Sugyeom tilted his head when he found Hansol standing in the middle of the room. Not only was he standing in an ambiguous spot but his expression also looked abnormal.

Hansol usually had a bright expression that matched his soft personality. However, now there wasn’t the slightest smile to be found.

“Sol…?”

Sugyeom sneaked a look at Hansol when he didn’t answer. Hansol’s lips were quivering as if he didn’t know what to say. Soon, he sighed deeply and scratched his hair irritably.

“You’re acting strange, Sol. Is something wrong?”

Sugyeom became nervous when he noticed Hansol’s unusual reaction. Did something happen? He was suddenly scared when he recalled an incident related to Hansol in his previous life.

The always seemingly kind and sweet Hansol had verbally abused a staff member of an entertainment show and even committed assault.

He couldn’t believe that Hansol, who was always smiling and was friendly to everyone, would hit someone. However, many people had witnessed the assault, and even CCTV footage of the assault was recorded.

Only after watching the CCTV footage with his own eyes did he conceded that Hansol had hit someone.

Though, even in his previous life, he didn’t know why. For what reason did Hansol, a seemingly good-hearted and upright person, do such a thing?

Because he didn’t know why, Sugyeom was even more anxious when he noticed Hansol’s attitude now.

He bit his tender lips and looked at Hansol with trembling eyes.

“…Hyung, is it true what Taewon-hyung said earlier?”

“Ehm? Uh, uh…It’s true. Why?”

Contrary to what Sugyeom thought was leading to a serious conservation, Hansol’s question was too ordinary. It was about the conversation he had with Taewon at the breakfast table about yesterday’s joke.

While relieved by the unexpected question, he wondered why Hansol was asking such a thing.

He blinked his big eyes and waited for Hansol to continue.

“No, I don’t understand… What the hell did you two do?”

“What?”

Sugyeom tilted his head.

The two were thinking the same thing. Sugyeom biting Taewon’s neck in bed.

However, the nuance was completely different, so in a way, Hansol’s reaction was natural.

“How am I supposed to accept this?”

“How do you accept what? You just have to accept it?”

“…Ha, something like that, since when?”

“Oh? Yesterday’s…something like that? Yesterday was the first time.”

Sugyeom answered bluntly, not noticing Hansol’s underlying meaning.

He had fought many times with Taewon, but yesterday was the first time he had bitten him. That was also why Taewon was shocked and had reprimanded him more than usual.

“Did you do that all of a sudden yesterday? There must have been some signs.”

“There was nothing like that…It’s just yesterday. Something like that…is there a need for a sign?”

“What?”

“It just happened in the moment.”

“Just in the moment?”

“Ehm…”

Sugyeom was confused by Hansol’s shocked reaction.

Him and Taewon were just messing around with each other, so what signs were needed? It simply happened because they were messing around. It would have been more strange if he had asked Taewon beforehand.

Hansol sighed deeply and rubbed his face. Soon, he looked directly at Sugyeom as if he had made up his mind.

“Then…Will you also do that with me if the situation comes up?”

“Huh…?”

“If the situation comes up with me.”

Hansol asked firmly. However, unlike his firm voice, his eyes were trembling.

If Sugyeom had to say, Hansol was his second closest friend, and like his relationship with Taewon, the jokes weren’t serious.

Hansol was his dongsaeng and was very friendly, so in his own way he was protective of him. There wouldn’t be situations where he would physically fight with Hansol like Taewon in the first place.

Therefore, he couldn’t immediately answer Hansol’s question. He couldn’t imagine the situation.

However, if Hansol’s attitude was to change in the future and he played a joke on him like Taewon had, then he was willing to play a joke on him as he did with Taewon.

“What…I guess if Sol wants to?”

“…If I want to…You’re going to do it…?”

Hansol became dumbfounded as if he couldn’t believe what Sugyeom had said.

He appeared seemingly flustered, but Sugyeom was very relieved because he didn’t have a serious or stiff face like before.

Relieved, Sugyeom smiled brightly and replied.

“Ehm, there’s nothing I can’t do. I like Taewon-hyung and I like you too.”

“What…?”

Hansol’s expression immediately became frighteningly cold.

As a result, Sugyeom swallowed his dry saliva. Hansol’s mood appeared to have improved just earlier, but was it just an illusion? Sugyeom was simply confused by the situation.

He reflected on what he had said, but there was no indication in which part Hansol was offended by.

If he had to say, Hansol’s expression became stiff as soon as he said he liked him.

Wait…Was Hansol displeased that he had said he liked him…?

When he thought that far, he had no choice but to be even more confused.

Hansol had been friendly and kind to him. Sugyeom thought he liked him more than anyone else, so he couldn’t understand why his face had stiffened when he said he liked him. He would even be convinced if someone had said Hansol was hurt.

“I mean…I don’t hate it?”

“…Good for you, why are you telling me this?”

Hansol coldly answered Sugyeom’s carefully worded question.

Since it was a tone Sugyeom had never thought he would hear from him, he lowered his head gloomily, unable to say anything.

Hansol, who was watching, breathed a long sigh. At the heavy sigh, Sugyeom’s head fell even lower.

“… I’m sorry. I was too shocked. I didn’t mean to get mad at hyung. I had never thought of hyung as someone with that kind of view on love. Of course…Yes, it could be hyung’s taste. That’s possible…I was so shocked when it was a member and not someone else who had said it…”

“Wait, what do you mean by view on love?”

As Sugyeom quietly listened to Hansol’s long-winded explanation, he raised his head to the words ‘view on love’ that had caught his ears.

No, why was Hansol suddenly talking about the view on love?
