25. Make me jealous - MIRROR [BL]

전 웅

Here...you won't come, right?

For several days, I'd been avoiding Dong-hyun, so I'd been going to places I'd never been before. We were in the same apartment complex, in the same class. I found myself fiddling with books I hadn't even read.

전 웅

Well, while I'm here, I might as well read a book.

I picked a random book and started reading. After about ten minutes, I hadn't even read a few pages, and before I knew it, I was dozing off, face down on the desk.

김동현

.....

김동현

I've been avoiding you for a week... Even when I try to apologize, you won't come face to face.

I covered his shoulders with the blanket I'd brought, and placed a macaron next to him that Woong usually enjoyed. It was his favorite chocolate flavor.

???

Donghyun! We decided to go there together.

김동현

Huh? Ah... Just wait outside for a moment. I'll be out soon.

I tried to stay with Woong a little longer, but in the end, I had to leave before I could last long. Woong, who had been listening to the whole thing, raised his head as soon as Donghyun left and stared intently at the macaron he'd left behind.

전 웅

Why do you keep giving me things like this? It keeps bothering me.

If Donghyun had stayed a little longer, he would have opened up to me, but he's already gone, so I missed my chance. But I feel a bit awkward about approaching him first. He's been avoiding me all this time, so it'd be a bit ridiculous to approach him.

전 웅

Mr. Ha... why did they have to come? They're handsome and popular, so annoying.

He chewed the flesh in his mouth and muttered a soft curse. It really annoyed me. I didn't like it, but I was jealous. He couldn't even fathom his own feelings anymore. He wanted to give up, but he couldn't.

전 웅

Should I follow you... Ah, no, I said I wouldn't even look at Kim Dong-hyun's face..!

전 웅

.....

Finally, I ran out and followed Dong-hyun. "Oh, my pride is hurt," I thought to myself, as I followed him behind. Seeing him laughing and walking with his other friends, I felt a surge of jealousy.

이대휘

Hey, what are you doing?

전 웅

Oh my..! No, Lee Dae-hwi... Do you really want to die?

이대휘

Wow, you're saying you want to die to your only sibling..? Huh, I'm pissed.

전 웅

What are you whining about again? Why are you here again?

이대휘

I came to help my brother with his relationship. I know a little about relationships, right?

I glanced at Dong-hyun, who was walking ahead of me, then grabbed Woong's hand tightly and ran towards him. "Hey, hey, Lee Dae-hwi, are you crazy?! I called out urgently, but our eyes had already met.

김동현

...What, it's been a while?

전 웅

Long time no see... Oh, no, Lee Dae-hwi, you..!

이대휘

Why? Because it seems like you two are dating again. You both still have feelings for each other, right?

전 웅

What are you talking about, seriously? Don't hold me back, I'm going to go.

Without even looking at Dong-hyeon, he turned away, leaving the two behind. Dae-hwi's plan to reunite them had been blown.

이대휘

Hey, that stubborn guy..! Please listen to me!!!

김동현

...No one can stop Woong.

???

If you want to date again, you should go on a blind date instead. How long are you going to stay like that?

김동현

But Woong...

???

If you don't like it, then don't do it. If you want to, I'll look into it for you.

I thought for a moment then. If Woong had feelings for me, wouldn't he be even more jealous of something like this? I hadn't originally intended to do it, but the thought of it made me want to give it a try.

김동현

...Blind dates, I want to try that too.

전 웅

What?! Who's going on a blind date?

박우진

Donghyun is my older brother? Why am I overreacting so much...

전 웅

No... When did I? And, I'm not interested..!

Inside, I was so anxious I could die. Is she dating someone else now? Is that really true? Am I going to be abandoned? I was filled with anxiety, thinking about all sorts of things.

박우진

Hyung, do you still have feelings for Donghyun? But why are you avoiding him?

전 웅

Oh, no!! I don't even want to see his face. When did I ever say I liked him?

박우진

Seriously... why do you care about blind dates when you're talking like that? Okay, I won't tell you anything like that from now on~

전 웅

What? Hey, that's not it..!

He abruptly hung up the phone. Woong was in a state of confusion. Should he hold on to him or not? That's when he realized he still liked Kim Dong-hyun.

전 웅

It's making me nervous...I wonder if he's out there right now..?

I asked Woojin where the blind date was and prepared to leave. What if it was already over? It was already 2 o'clock... My heart was pounding, but I was also anxious.

전 웅

Seriously...just look at what Kim Dong-hyun has done.

김동현

Oh, hello! I'm Kim Dong-hyun...

Still, I came prepared, dressed up for the blind date. The person who arrived early and sat down was a student with long, flowing brown hair and a bright smile. He was a year younger than Dong-hyun.

김동현

By the way, where do you go to school? It would be great if we go to the same school.

After talking for about 30 minutes, I started to like him because he seemed to fit me better than I thought and was closer to my ideal type. By then, I had forgotten about Woong.

전 웅

Kim Dong-hyun...! You...

Seeing her smiling brightly at someone else made me feel like I'd been robbed of her. Just a while ago, she only smiled at me. Why was she smiling at someone else?

김동현

Why are you here...

전 웅

...Come out quickly. I'm sorry...

Right now, love was more important than pride. Yeah, what's with that pride? Donghyun just sat there in silence, so I grabbed his wrist and dragged him out.
