Third person point of view
The next day, the both of them woke up a little late as they were staying at home. They finished their routine and also had breakfast. Haruto was sitting on the couch looking through some magazine. Junkyu was pacing around aimlessly in the room. He kept glancing at the door from time to time.
Jihoon already told him that they were on their way but they didn't reach yet. So Junkyu was feeling restless. Junkyu invited Jihoon and Hyunsuk to come to their house. He never really thought about it before. When he realized he never really did, he immediately asked Jihoon to bring Hyunsuk and come on the day he has a holiday.
He also had a few things he wanted to tell them, so he decided it would be a nice time for it and also be a nice get together for the four of them. He was now waiting for them to arrive. He finally heard Jihoon's voice and then Jihoon's and felt relieved. He immediately went to greet them and gave Hyunsuk a hug.
" I haven't seen you for a while hyung ". Hyunsuk chuckled. " Did my son miss me ? " " Of course I did ". Junkyu pulled away and smiled. Haruto walked up to them. Jihoon and Hyunsuk greeted Haruto who returned it. " You know them already. Jihoon and Hyunsuk hyung ". Junkyu gestured to them.
He then gestured to Haruto. " This is Haruto, my boyfriend ". Junkyu said smiling. Jihoon imitated Junkyu's voice. " My boyfriend ". Junkyu was ready to throw hands. Jihoon went and stood behind Hyunsuk. Haruto laughed. " Oh wait ". Junkyu said looking at Haruto. " I guess I should say fiance now ".
Jihoon and Hyunsuk were surprised. " Really ? " They both asked at the same time. Haruto nodded. " But it is fine. You can call me whatever you want ". Haruto said to Junkyu. " Ew~~ " Hyunsuk and Jihoon cringed. They laughed and sat in the living room. They chatted about a lot of things.
" The lunch is ready ". Ji Ho informed them and they all went there together. They had a happy lunch together. " Your cooking is really good aunty ". Jihoon complimented. Ji Ho smiled. " Thank you. Nice to know you liked it. Have this a little more ". She saved putting food on his plate. They all smiled and continued with their lunch. They finished and walked from there.
They then sat around again in the living room. " I have something to tell you guys ". Junkyu said turning to Jihoon and Hyunsuk. " What is it ? " Jihoon wondered what it could be seeing how serious Junkyu looked. " It is about the house I used to live in ". " Why ? What about it ? " Hyunsuk asked. Junkyu gestured to the both of them.
" I want you both to move in into that house ". Hyunsuk and Jihoon took a second to digest what Junkyu said. " Huh ? What ? " Hyunsuk felt like he didn't understand what Junkyu just said. " What are you saying ? " Jihoon asked perplexed. Both of them didn't know why Junkyu was asking for something like that.
Junkyu decided to explain it when he saw the two of them looking at him like he said something ridiculous. " I will not go back there anyway and I cannot get myself to sell it. It is something I got for myself. Leaving it like that will just ruin the house. So if you guys move in there, the house will be there and in condition too. Also I want to gift it to both of you ".
" WHAT ? " Both of them shouted at the same time. Junkyu turned to them before speaking. " I know how hard you both worked for me and will continue to do so. I cannot repay you both for how much you struggled along with me when I just started " Junkyu said looking at the both of them. He waved his hands frantically.
" It is not that I am putting a price for your work. Nor is it like I am paying off a debt or something. Nothing I do will be enough for it. But I want to do it for you guys. So take it as a gift from me ". Jihoon shook his head immediately. " No way. What are you even talking about ? How can we take it ? "
Hyunsuk nodded agreeing with Jihoon. " Jihoon is right. We cannot accept it just like that. It is too much. No. It is yours and we cannot take it. And there is no such thing as paying back. It is our duty. You keep saying you are my son. How can I take it even after that ? " Jihoon nodded. The both of them looked reluctant to take it.
" I already changed it to your names though ". Junkyu said blinking innocently. Hyunsuk and Jihoon were shook. " Yah ! When did you even do that ? " Jihoon asked not knowing how or when Junkyu did that. Junkyu smiled and turned to Haruto who was just sitting there all this while without even opening his mouth.
Jihoon and Hyunsuk understood. " But this.... " Hyunsuk huffed. Jihoon was also standing his ground about not accepting it. " Then how about this ? Just think of it as you staying there to not let the house go rotten ". Junkyu said shrugging. " Then it isn't a problem right ? " Junkyu asked. Jihoon and Hyunsuk couldn't find anything to refute that.
" Just take it~~ I didn't know I would have to beg you this much. What is there to not do it ? It isn't too big or too small. It has good lighting. It is in a nice area. It is secure too. Everything is just fine and you need not even pay rent. What is making you think so much ? " Junkyu said looking upset and restless.
" If you really think of me as a really close like family and like Hyunsukie hyung said, your son; shouldn't you take a gift when your son gives it ? " Hyunsuk and Jihoon still looked hesitant. They looked at each other not saying anything. " Yah. Want me to fire you both ? Will that be nice ? Let me just call Jin hyung then ".
Junkyu threatened. Haruto chuckled on the side finding it cute how Junkyu was acting all tough. Junkyu almost cracked a smile because of Haruto. But he regained his expression and hushed Haruto. " Take it ! " He declared and they looked at each other. Hyunsuk nodded and Jihoon returned it. They had no choice but to agree. They finally nodded.
Junkyu smiled in victory. " Yay ! I will get it cleaned and I don't think there are any of my things left there. But I'll get everything done and let you know. They will also help you shift ". Jihoon and Hyunsuk nodded. " Thank you so much ". Jihoon said. " Aye~ I'd rather see Hyunsuk hyung being all sentimental ". Junkyu said and all of them laughed.
-MG
They are like a happy little family. It's so wholesome. And maybe this can also be considered an indoor double date.
Junkyu succeeded in his mission. Yay !
I feel going back to reading but I shouldn't. But as weekend comes I just keep picking up books and reading them by the time the week ends. I have to stop doing this. But it felt like I missed reading, so I couldn't really stop myself firmly. But I am going to try harder not to.
