60 World 3.9

'DING! BREAKMETER: 30%!'

'NEW INFORMATION UNLOCKED!'

Taehyun slightly jolted after hearing the system. It's been a while, the breakmeter increased. He put his hands inside his pockets and halted the hallways. Soheun told him to wait outside, but he knew that it would take long. So why not use the time to explore the hospital?

The quick preview of Taehyun's memory kept on popping inside his mind. He couldn't forget it. Tae Jun, kneeling in front of him and crying, with blood in his palms. He didn't know what happened back then, but why does he feel like he was the villain in this story. Well. he's the homewrecker after all.

Thinking that he was the homewrecker, Taehyun stopped walking. An idea quickly jolted inside his mind. 

[Diccu, I'm the homewrecker, right?]

DICCU: Yes, host

Taehyun's eyes widened. "Don't tell me…" he covered his lips. "Don't tell me..they are the---" before he could blabbed it out, the air flipped the trees, passing through him. The wind was harsh, causing the leaves to fall down upon him. His gaze turned to the wide horizon in front of his eyes. It also blew his hair as he turned silent. He almost forgot that he was already outside.

Right in an instant, Taehyun felt his head turning around. He grabbed his hair and then slumped on the green grass.

'SYSTEM WILL NOW SHOW HOST THE INFORMATION'

3...2...1

Before her very eyes, everything turned black, like she was being sucked somewhere. When Jinli opened her eyes, she was in a big and wide living room. The chandeliers are very bright, the walls painted in peach. Expensive and leather coach. 

"HOW DARE YOU!!!"

That raging voice made Jinli flinch. She looked at where it came from and was stunned. It was the true Taehyun. His eyes were always warm, but in this scenario it was full of disgust. Her line of sight went down to the man in front of Taehyun. "Tae Jun?" she mumbled.

This time, he saw a full view of Tae Jun's face. He was wide awake in this scene. He was in front of Taehyun, crying just like the way he is in the quick preview. His eyes were pitiful and sad. 

"Taehyun, stop doing this to me," Tae Jun pleaded once more.

The male standing in front of him smirked, "I love that look on your face, Tae Jun.." Taehyun couldn't help but grin. "Who are you to stop me?..It will be your loss if the entertainment found out that you are gay," He crouched down. "My dear brother, I pity you..the media are everywhere, what will happen if they found out that you had this relationship with your personal assistant?" 

Tae Jun bit his lips and lowered his head. He clenched his fist secretly. "I will do everything, just don't expose me," he wiped the tears coming from his eyes. He winced when he felt a slight pain from the bruises he had on his body. Taehyun must be very satisfied after hurting his twin brother.

Why? Because he was jealous. Tae Jun got it all. The perfect image of a son. While he was the opposite. Though they are twins, they are not always the same. Taehyun had his own group while Tae Jun pursued his dream to be an idol. He got charisma, his popularity immediately rose up in no time. 

At first, he could handle himself well, but because there were so many fans who wanted to have him and were dying for him. His manager decided to give him an assistant. That was Soheun. Soheun was kind and gentle towards him. Their closure blooms into a very beautiful flower. That's when Taehyun also started to become psychotic. 

Jinli opened her eyes. She was back to the place where she was lying. She ended up fainting under the tree. Of course, she was back to her Taehyun character. 

He sprang up and rubbed his two eyes, "What the heck did I just witnessed?!" he exclaimed, still couldn't believe a single thing from the memory he just saw.

DICCU: Sad, but it's the truth

[Then, if they loved each other, what am I even doing here?]

DICCU: You are the homewrecker, you need to break them

Hearing Diccu say such a thing, Taehyun's heart turned heavy and tight like it was being squeezed. How could he ever do such a thing to Tae Jun? His twin brother was soft and..dying..according to the system. Aside from exposing his sexuality, that's also one of the reasons he uses to scare Tae Jun.

Taehyun shakes his head and brushes off the heavy thoughts. "Can I just change the plot?" His eyes turned downward, gripping the hem of his clothes in silence. "I--I can't do it," he uttered.

DICCU: I am very sorry, host, but you need to follow the plot..you are the homewrecker of this world

[What will happen to me if I don't follow the plot?]

DICCU: That will depend on the system

Taehyun stood up. He brushed off the leaves on his pants and trailed the narrow pathway back inside. Soheun must be looking for him all over the hospital. "They should be done by now," he mumbled to himself as he opened the door handle.

He went straight to the 5th floor. There was an urge inside him that wanted to talk to Tae Jun first. Instead of going to the office, his feet brought him to the familiar room. Taehyun was elated upon seeing the door half opened. "He must be awake by now," he whispered to himself.

Taehyun breathed deeply, preparing himself for the possible scenarios. Just when he was about to push the door, he was stupefied. He saw Soheun leaning beside the bed of Tae Jun. He was holding the male's hands very tight.

Taehyun saw Soheun raise his one arm, putting his hands on Tae Jun's head. He lifted up his butt from the chair and kissed the male on his lips. After that, he saw a warm smile from Soheun's cheeks. 

Taehyun automatically stepped back. He was right. His character was only manipulating Soheun and Tae Jun. He trembled and couldn't move,completely stunned.

[I am the real homewrecker…]
