[teaser] Call you Bae
âI get it. You and Changhyun kissed. SoâŠ?â Dongyeol says, not looking up from his computer screen.
âWeâre just friends.â
Dongyeol abruptly stops typing. âWhat? No. No no no no no,â he says, finally turning back to look at Yein and shaking his head repeatedly. âYou two are not in a relationship?â
âWhat? No.â
âBut we all think so.â
âReally?â Yein asks, springing up from the bed.
âYeah. Ask anyone,â he says, then narrows his eyes. âSo you are not in a relationship,â he repeats.
Yein pouts and slouches.
âThen you should be!â
âWell itâs actually nice. But itâs also kind of scary,â Yein says and sighs.
âWhatâs scary about it?â
âWhat if we break up? Like, friends donât break up but now that weâre not friends anymore ââ
Dongyeolâs expression softens into a gentle smile and he rubs Yeinâs arm.
âYou guys are friends. Thatâs the prerequisite. Youâll always be friends.â
Yein sighs some more and hugs the pillow tighter and looks down. âOK.â
âOk then,â Dongyeol says. âSo no more uneasiness.â Â Â
âNo. I. Uhh. I canât meet him. I need to calm down. I need at least a week to think. That is not counting the time I have to spend working. So I need a month.â
âItâs my birthday party next Friday donât you dare not show up. Whatâs wrong actually? Why canât you calm down?â
âIâm shy⊠Like suddenly I realised there are all these things I want to do with him.â
Dongyeol grins like heâs up to no good. Yein takes the pillow and hits his face, so that he would not see Yein blushing with an embarrassing intensity.
But Dongyeol immediately pushes the pillow away and he laughs and laughs at Yein.
Then he turns serious. âNext week. Donât you dare not show up,â he says.
Yein gulps.
