As usual, Jaejoong will take a lunch with his best friends, and today Hyun Joong managed to come along. It’s already one week after Young Saeng came in to school.Hyun Joong never talked about his engagement again to Jaejoong, he just looks like to try to enjoy his single time with Jaejoong and the others before the official engagement.Jaejoong also never ask anything again. Yunho and Junsu don’t know about that, while Yoochun already know, because he’s Hyun Joong cousin after all, but it looks like he never support the arrangement. Because he never seen talk with Young Saeng, as he don’t know him before, despite he already knew him at Hyun Joong house last years, at Hyun Joong parenst wedding anniversary party.Jejoong also decide to just enjoy the time to see and talk with Hyun Joong freely, because he was sure when Hyun Joong is officially become Young Saeng fiancée, he’s not allowed to having a close relationship with other else. Not with his fiancée in this same school.“So, do you guys having plan for this weekend?” ask Hyun Joong.“We will watch Junsu practicing soccer with his team, want to join us?” ask Yunho.“Jinja? Can I?”“Of course you can,” said Junsu, cheerfully. He always has a good feeling to Hyun Joong. First, that Hyun Joong is his idol from the started we came to this school, and two, because Hyun Joong is his Yoochunnie’s cousin.Jaejoong look at Junsu, hesitate. Yoochun look at his cousin, suspicious. Yunho look at Jaejoong, carefully. And Hyun Joong…just smile calmly, look at everyone.After lunch, they’re going back to their class, and make a promise to meet at front door.>>><<< Jaejoong lock his locker and wear his shoes, and he saw three pair of leg approaching. Jaejoong lifted his head and look at three young men which look at him with different expression. Jung Min with smirked, cynically. Hyung Jun with awkward smile and hesitate feeling. And, Young Saeng with softly gazes but his eyes looks teary.“jaejoong ssi…can I have a little talk with you?” ask Young Saeng, polite. Hyun Joong is right about this man good manner.“Yes, what can I do for you?”Then, they decide to go to side garden beside the locker room, to talk more privately.“Ng…err…” Young Saeng looks hesitate now, his voice little bit trembling.“Aigoo, Young Saeng ah, don’t hesitate like that, you have a right to said what’s in your heart!” said Jung Min, impatiently.“But, how if we’ve got wrong idea?” ask Hyung Jun, and Young Saeng slowly nodded.“Aish!!! Looks, Jaejoong ssi, what our friends want to ask is, could you keep a distance from Hyun Joong ssi? Young Saengie is his fiancée, but it looks like Hyun Joong prefer to spending time with you then with his own fiancée, so please behave yourself and stay away from him? We believe that you’re guy with good manner and pride, you don’t want to a third wheel for their relationship, do you?”Jaejoong stunned. Frozen. Young Saeng and Hyung Jun look at him, worriedly, while the blunt Jung Min is so calm, not thinking about his friend bleeding hearts now.“Jaejoong ssi…I don’t want to accused that you’re a third wheel between me and Hyun Joongie…but…you know…even I ashamed to say this, but I have to admitted that Hyun Joong loves to me not as big as my loves to him,” said Young Saeng, stop for a moment, sighed.“From the first time we informed by our parents about our engagement, I really sure that he’s the one, and nobody else beside him in my heart… but then Hyun Joongie has a relationship with Nicole ssi, but later Nicole who just look for wealthy, agreed to leave, with some bunch of money from Hyun Joong parents” explained Young Saeng.Jaejoong stay silent, listening, with freezing hearts.“Then, our parents decide that I have to go to a same school with him and get engage soon, officially…but…from the moment I’ve been here, Hyun Joong never change his attitude, he still look me just as a dongsaeng, a brother. He barely speaks to me, even we already stayed at a same place for I already stay at Kim’s mansion…but…one night I accidentally heard him on phone…and he called the man in other line…Jaejoongie…your name, with such a passion that he never shown to me…”Young Saeng eyes got redder and his tears already fall down. Hyung Jun hugged his shoulder to comfort him, while Jung Min looks at Jaejoong with fierce eyes.“I already knew that he’s not in love with me… but…please, Jaejoong sii… I love him so much… I never think I can live without him…he’s my soul, he’s my life…so please…give him back to me…”Jaejoong looks at Young Saeng. The man indeed has a good manner, but why he seems so weak? Beg to him like this? Why he can’t fight for his loves with another way? But, kindhearted Jaejoong choose to not make that’s a big deal, he just want to try to stand at the man shoes, and try to understand.“Jaejoong ssi, you’re handsome, you’re beautiful, you have a good personality, we sure that you will meet up with your true soul mate soon…” said Hyung Jun.Jaejoong lick his dry lips before starts to speak, with low tones and softly voice, but clearly enough for the other three.“I’m sorry, but I think there’s a big misunderstanding here…my relationship with Hyun Joong is purely as best friends, like me with Yunho and Junu and Yoochun, we never in other stated relationship. I’m so sorry if Hyun Joong had a wrong idea about our relationship then make you had another wrong idea about us, but…I already had a lover, not in this school,” said Jaejoong.“How can I believe you? We never saw you with other guy beside his bestfriend and the other students from this school,” said Jung Min.“I meet up with him at weekend, because he’s also busy in his school as president of student council,” said Jaejoong, try to calm, and looks like he made it.“So…do you say but my Hyun Joongie has a crush for you but you never felt the same?” ask Young Saeng.“I don’t know whether he has a crush or not, maybe he also like me, just see me as his best friend, truly best friend, but I promise you, that there’s no such romance relationship between us, I love my Minnie so much,” said Jaejoong.“Minnie?”“Ah, he’s name is Chang Min, Shim Chang Min,” said Jaejoong, smile warmly.The other three now in silently look at Jaejoong, try to find a doubtful things from Jaejoong words, but they can’t find that. Jaejoong looks so sure with his words.“Aah,,,Jaejoong ssi, please forgive me…I just…feel insecure before the engage been official,” said Young Saeng.“I know. Just keep trying to win his heart, ne?” said Jaejoong.“Thank you, Jaejoong ssi.”“Jaejoong will do, no need to use formally –ssi,” said Jaejoong.“Okay then, thank you Jaejoong ah,’ said Young Saeng“You’re welcome, Young Saeng ssi.”“Young Saeng is will do,” said Young Saeng, smile sincerely.“Okay,” said Jaejoong, then he said that he has to meet up with his best friend in front of the gate.Young Saeng looks at his back. His smile looks bitterly now, startled both Jung Min and Hyung Jun.“Young Saeng ah, what’s going on?” ask Jung Min.“Eh? Nah…nothings, I just relieve that he’s understand me,” said Young Saeng, little bit mumbled, makes the other two just looks each other, didn’t understand.>>><<< “So, we ready to go, right?” ask Yoochun, in his car.“Ng…where is Hyun Joongie?” ask Junsu.“He texted me a while ago, told me that he have some important things, and have to go home soon,” said Yoochun.Jaejoong’s heart started bleeding again. He has a bad feeling about this cancelation. Only Yunho that caught Jaejoong’s sad face, for that the later immediately change his expression again while realized his best friend gazes.“Ah, Yunnie, I have to talk with Changminnie, can you call him to come also?”“What is it? You have something important with him?”“I just want to ask a favor to helping me,” said Jaejoong.“Helping you about what?”“I’ll tell you later, please?”“Okay, I’ll call him,” said Yunho.Jaejoong have Changmin phone number, but because Yunho is right there, he prefer that Yunho who make a call, because he is his cousin after all.“Changmin ah, I hope you will help me…”>>><<<a/n : aishhh...another short one...
