"I am a mess" I say to myself looking into the mirror.

I know that.... he challenged me.

"Did you give up?"

"No. Why did you follow?"

"Then?" He asks me

"Then what?"

"It is because you don't want to apologise chanyeol or...

You don't want your parents to know"

"Hyung...."

"You know this is a chance to you right? Just like you gave a chance to me that night..... before you are going to push chanyeol off the cliff"

He is trying everything to protect chanyeol. Or.... revenge?

"Hyung..... you are getting really funny..."

"What?!"

I push him to the wall.. "get a grip to yourself.   Even I don't tell my parents today, you are mine.."

"It... hurts Sehun ya"

I let go because I was gripping too hard on his shoulders

"Let's go back"

"No... I already excused myself. I will go back now."

He ... left.
I also go back to the table..

Apologise chanyeol?
Keep the friendship?

Park chanyeol who stole everything from me.
The fame... the place in Delight and Byun Baekhyun

Why should I keep this friendship?

"He went back" dad says

"I know. We talked"

"Is something matter? I don't think it was about you getting into a movie" he says

"Yeah... it wasn't"

"Is something matter son?"

"I think... I'm losing him"

"What? What happened?" Mom asks

"Park chanyeol is stealing him away from me"

"Oh Sehun! You have this one job and can't you do this well? You just be the closest and you must make Baekhyun yours! We already said and planned this. Being friend is not enough." Dad says

"Why son? You can't...win his heart?"

"I almost had it... actually we made a deal. If I confessed about me being gay to you two, he will date me. But I have to apologise chanyeol"

"Smart kid... you can't let go of someone like him. He will have to rule all those businesses out there that his grandma is managing after she retires" Dad says

"The point is..."

"Don't apologise to chanyeol. You have done nothing wrong" mom says

"Yeah the point is that."

"But why don't you play along?" Dad asks

"I feel sick whenever I think chanyeol is in his mind everytime.... I.. really almost had him..and he just slipped away from my hand. I was quiet all the time and was beside him.. irritating!"

"I told you, you shouldn't give an opportunity to chanyeol to do that part-time job even from the start"

"I know right.. I shouldn't have sympathy for him even from the start. Right now full with regrets"

"I will talk to his Grandma" dad says

"He said he confessed to his grandma"

"That's better then" dad says

Ah... what did you think from above conversation?
My parents knew that... may be very long ago.....

Even before meeting Baekhyun for the very first time, I was told that I have to stay close to that hyung I was going to meet that day.
No matter what I have to follow him.
And as I follow him around Everyday, I found myself getting attached to him.
Not just my parents tell me to but .... he was always full of surprises and mysteries.

We had gotten very close.... too close.

I was waiting for the time to make him mine and I almost had it.

If that Park Chanyeol didn't appear in our story line.
He was my best friend and what do you think why didn't I tell him that I'm friend with someone like Byun Baekhyun?

I should have known these could happen. But I never guessed park chanyeol will fall for baekhyun.

That's pain.
My father had become more and more greedy.
He wants every of Baekhyun's grandma's businesses.
And I want Baekhyun.

But now, my plans are ruined.

Baekhyun's POV

I left in such a hurry because, Chanyeol's current girlfriend ... wait.. what's her name again? Jiah?

She asked me to meet her.

The least thing I want to do.
I wonder if chanyeol is okay. He can't go out of his apartment yet so...

And I am here, knowing every words she's going to say but.. have to listen.

"B ssi? Right?" She comes in and greets

"Nae.. please have a seat"

First time meeting... I think... is it?
Haha.. my bad memory.

Awkward? Yeah... but it is okay, I have met a lot of people so...
I just watch her order drink and seeing her getting ready to attack me.

"It's... nice to meet you B ssi.. I'm Jiah" she says... yeah I'm aware of that.

"Nae... what's it that you want ... to talk?"

"Stop using chanyeol... for your own good. Will you?"

Wow.. what a harsh start.

"Am I?" I say and sip my coffee

"Chanyeol told me we would start all over again"

Lying straight to my face without knowing her boyfriend run to me in the rain saying he didn't say those words.

That's why I don't like girls.

"I can't stop or tell him to quit from Delight because it's his career and I respect his future. But, please see him as one of your models and stop playing with him.

We will just end up together in the future. So, don't mess up with our lives. We have been fine on our own... chanyeol and I have been together for so long and we understand and love each other"

"Are you sure?"

"Sorry?"

"Are you sure that.... you two have been fine and love each other?"

"Why do you ask?"

"Love... huh. I'm not a master in that feeling too but I think you are much more no-experience then me"

"What?"

"Chanyeol and you. There was no love. Did you know that? That boy needed love and I heard you are a workaholic, who's struggling to make a living. I understand that. Don't feel offended.

When you said love... do you guys even ... hug? Kiss? Sleep?

Don't think about sensual way but those are the basic that most couples have.

Chanyeol clearly told me ... there were no interactions like that. Between you two.

So, it's much more like.... you guys are in relationship but.... without love.

Love is much more grand word than you thank Jiah ssi.

Staying as his sister isn't dating for real"

"B ssi!!"

"Meeting first and being together for the long time doesn't make you his girlfriend. When you are not there for him when he needs, and know what he needs"

"You guys are against the nature"

"Stop being hypocrite. We are the two souls that help each other... accompany.. ah.... you might not understand. I have plans ahead so, please excuse me"

"Stop stealing him away from me" she says

"It's kinda rude for you to say ... steal"

"Isn't it true? May be that's how you always do. Stealing using all those money and fame you have"

"If you already got stolen, park chanyeol is mine then?
And Jiah ssi,

There are only two types of people in this world. Those who steals and those who are stolen.
That's why, Remember that I stole your future.

Right? So... till next time" I say and leaves

Steal huh...
She's getting on my nerves.
