"Yah Kang Taehyun, you come here." Yeonjun called
Taehyun in a hurry, ushering him close.

"Yes Sir?" Taehyun hurried over towards Yeonjun's table, looking at what Yeonjun was trying to show him.

"What the hell is he trying to do?" Yeonjun said shoving his phone screen to Taehyun's face, which made the latter almost lose his balance.

"Huh? That's a picture of a fox isn't it?" Taehyun asked, confused.

"Yes it is! Why a fox?" Yeonjun asked with a frown, his eyes widened and lips pursed.

"What do you mean why a fox?" Taehyun asked, genuinely confused.

"Beomgyu sent this to me saying "this reminded me of you". Is he mocking me??" Yeonjun replied with a look of disbelief, shaking his phone infront of Taehyun, who looked back at him with a sigh.

"You have no romantic-bone in your body, do you?" Taehyun replied face-palming. How did he not get such a simple hint?

"What do you mean? What's romantic about this even?" Yeonjun demanded an answer to which Taehyun just shrugged.

"Ask the one who sent it, not me. My job is to assist you in business, not romance Mr.Choi Yeonjun." Taehyun replied sassily.

"You're so annoying!!" Yeonjun yelled at him before shifting in his seat, staring at Beomgyu's contact, his curiosity rising with every single minute.

"I'll ask him about this once I get home."

Beomgyu was currently walking back home after his classes ended. It was 6:30 pm and he was tired as hell, because he had to become a victim of the Principal's lecture about stuff he could care less about.

"Why do they need me? A Maths Professor for discussing stuff about an Art and craft seminar? It's not like I know anything about that! Shouldn't he ask Ms.Shin about that? Ugh, I already have so much stuff to do." Beomgyu groaned, kicking the pebbles on the road, a pout naturally forming on his lips.

He took the bus home, to save nature and use public transport. Call him silly, but he believes even one person's effort can bring a big change.

He waited for the bus at the bus-stop, waiting for the bus to come so he could go home. He still has to check the test papers from the day before yesterday and make a new planner for the new semester batch. There's a shit-ton of work for him.

"Why is the bus late today?" Beomgyu wondered, checking his watch again and again. It's already been 15 minutes since he's sitting here.

After all those 15 minutes of waiting which felt like hours, a bus arrived. Beomgyu's face lit up in joy, finally! He quickly got up inside and swiped his card, taking a backseat near the window.

He loved sitting beside the window, because he got to admire the world slowly returning back to their homes. Children walking back home after a hard day of school and cram school, Office workers coming home to their awaiting families, Birds flying back to their nest after a full day-hunt. He liked seeing those smiling faces and tired eyes filled with a gleam of hope for relaxation and belongingness.

He knew that feeling. He had the same expression on his face right now after all. Lips curled up slightly from the excitement of coming home after a long day of work.

"I hope Yeonjun comes home soon.." Beomgyu thought, looking out of the window. The roads disappeared from lively and busy to quieter and less crowded ones, as the sun went down the horizon. But apparently, that wasn't the only thing that went down.

Beomgyu's eyelids did too.

"Sir, wake up! This is the last stop!"

Beomgyu felt someone shaking his shoulders, as he rose from his deep-sleep.

"Hmm? What is it?" He asked, rubbing his eyes to get rid of the sleep from his system.

"This is the last stop, you fell asleep and missed youe stop probably." The driver informed him, and Beomgyu immediately jolted awake.

"What? Last stop?" Beomgyu looked out of the window to see it was already dark, and they were infront of the stranded looking bus-stop.

"What place is this?"

"Gangseo-gu town Sir."

"Shit."

Beomgyu missed his stop.

"Great! Now I'm stranded in this weird-ass place all alone at freaking 9 pm!" Beomgyu groaned in annoyance, currently sitting on the bus-stop's bench. This was the last bus. This place was really far away from his house, and was quiet in the side area too.

"What do I do now?" Beomgyu switched open his phone.

"Thankgod it's not dead!" He replied, seeing his phone was on 20%. Maybe he wasn't so unlucky afterall.

"I should text Yeonjun to pick me up." Beomgyu thought, opening Yeonjun's chat to text him.

Husband🦊🩷
Yeonjun!!!
Heyy!!
I'm stranded 😭😭😭
Come pick me up pls

*Sent location attachment*

Sent 09:12 pm

Beomgyu closed his phone, debating whether he should call Yeonjun or not. Yeonjun had forbidden him from calling him since he might be in some important meeting, so he usually texted him; even though a reply from him was rare.

"Good job Choi Beomgyu, now suffer alone and wait for a ghost to haunt you and possess your sexy body."

+×+

Yeonjun was currently driving back home. It was 9:30 pm, when his phone started ringing. He looked at the tab-screen on his Car and saw the caller-id was Beomgyu's.

"Why is he calling me now? I told him I'd be home late ugh." Yeonjun groaned, but picked up Beomgyu's call anyways.

"Hello?"

"Hello Yeonjun! Did you see my text?" The annoying voice of Beomgyu rang in Yeonjun's ear from the other side, which made Yeonjun sigh.

"Is this why you called me? I'm coming home and driving right now, cut the call- '' Yeonjun was about to end the call when Beomgyu yelled from the other side.

"No no Yeonjun wait! Listen!"

"Fine. Speak." Yeonjun replied, calming down his nerves. A human has 7 trillion nerves, and somehow Beomgyu managed to get on every single one of his.

"So I may or may not have slept in the bus and may not have missed my stop and I might be just sitting alone in a fucking scary bus-stop all alone." Beomgyu said everything in one breath.

"Wait wait what? You did what?" Yeonjun stopped his car, his eyebrows furrowing in annoyance and disbelief. Just how stupid was this man?

"Yes, I'm stranded alone. Come pick me up before someone kidnaps me or a ghost possesses me. I've sent you the location! Check your texts will you?" Beomgyu yelled from the other side, making Yeonjun almost go deaf.

"Fine fine I'll come! Stop yelling!!" Yeonjun replied back with a yell as well.

"Who's yelling you foo- AHHHHHH!"

"Beomgyu? Hey Beomgyu? What happened-"

*Beep beep beep*

The call was disconnected after Beomgyu yelled in horror like that.

"What the hell?" Yeonjun mumbled, trying to call him again, but it wasn't connecting.

"The number you've called is switched off. Please try again later."

"Damn it, that annoying motor-mouth.." Yeonjun grumbled and pressed on the gas pedal, speeding up and turning his car around.

"You better stay safe Choi Beomgyu."
