He stopped midway from eating Jae’s food. He never tried again to cook since the incident when he tried warm a soup for Jaejoong because he was sick, leaving the kitchen in a big mess. In the end, to prevent further damage to their kitchen, Jaejoong cooked for himself.“Yeah, it’s good they offer the subjects that exactly my major. So, I have to find an apartment to move in soon. Can you help me? Since you are more familiar with the area… ” Yunho asked.“Oh, Yun…I will, of course!” Heechul said; face shows happiness. “How about we go looking for it after this? Since I don’t have schedule today.”“That’s good then…” Yunho replied.Meanwhile, Jaejoong is having a hard time trying to focus his attention on his food but he can’t do anything but to eavesdrop in his case because he is sharing the same table with his brother and Yunho, Thoughhe can’t understand what they are talking all about, inside of him, he can still feel a tinge of jealousy and happiness as he saw Yunho’s smile. Plus, he is still wondering if the said man still remember what had happened in the bus this morning.After a few minutes, they finished their meal and now Jaejoong was left with Yunho on the living room, as he accompany the man while waiting for Heechul to get changed. “So Jaejoong, are you in your final year?” Yunho started the conversation after a long silence.“Y-yes…” Jaejoong looked up, and became nervous as he found that Yunho’s almond-shaped eyes are straightly looking at his.“Then, this year will be your climacteric year. I wonder how you look when you’re in school. You must be amongst the bright students, right?” The man said again as he genuinely smiled.But this time Jaejoong flinched, even the man smiled, his word seems to have hidden meaning. He frowned but ignored it as he’s sure that there is no way the man knows how he look and act at school.“Yun, let’s go!” Heechul entered the living room. He is wearing a skinny jeans with loose and simple black T-shirt, exposing his sexy white neck. He’s just being fashionable whenever he goes, even if it is just merely a convenience store in front of their house, he needs to take care and be conscious with his appearance as he is now a rising star. People would definitely notice him immediately.“Hyung, will you be late tonight?” Jaejoong suddenly whined and put up his irresistibly cute pouting face and made Heechul abruptly stopped and brought his attention back to his cute-spoiled little brother.“No, hyung will get home early so Joongie won’t get bored.” Heechul said in his pampering tone that he always use towards the younger since ages.“Really? Don’t break your promise kay? If not, Joongie will burn all the cloths in your wardrobe. You already broke one of your promises today.” Heechul chuckles as Jaejoong replied in his bratty-sulking tone with face scrunched up into frown; not aware that the other person with them amused with his sudden change of behavior. “So, can we go now?” Yunho clear his voice to interrupt the sibling’s cute moment and broke his stare from the pretty young boy.“Sure. So wheredid you parked your car?” Heechul asked his lover.“I parked at the opposite building as this parking lot already crammed."“Car..?” Jaejoong wondering tone hits Yunho’s ears as the man was about to walk out. He’s thinking as why Yunho rode a bus this morning if he has a car.“My car broke down this morning, which made me took a bus to go for my job interview. But now, it’s already fixed.” The word brought Jaejoong abruptly looked at Yunho, which sound like answering his thought. The man smiled to him before walking out with Heechul whom already lead the way. ‘So…he did remember? But why he didn’t speak a word..?’ Jaejoong has been left puzzled at the same time relieved and glad that Yunho did not brought up above the incident because if not, he is very sure that his brother will freak out and he won’t be allowed to take a bus anymore. To make it worst, his hyung will probably force himself to become his personal chauffer. That’s the worst thing that can happen to him and he will definitely do everything just to make sure that it won’t happen in the future. He won’t ride a car anymore.----------Since that day, Jaejoong frequently see Yunho at his house everytime his brother is free from work and at home, there must be Yunho’s presence, loitering at his house. This made Jaejoong got used with the man’s presence. It’s not awkward for him to be with Yunho anymore as he accepted already the fact that Yunho is his brother’s boyfriend. But he still feel the same feeling that he felt for Yunho the first time they encountered. In addition with these, he always bumped with him not only on his house but also in his school and to make it worst, he still don’t know that he is his teacher with his other subjects plus a disciplinary council in his school. He already knew Yunho for about five months now and yet, he still doesn’t know his job.-----------“Minnie-ah, can you accompany me to watch a baseball match there..!” He was facing the field from their usual hidden room’s window and saw some students were played baseball. And that simply caught his attention.“If you want to get caught skipping classes, then I won’t come with you.” Changmin Said while exhaling smoke from his cigarette.Jaejoong pouted, and his big-doe like eyes diverted to his other bratty mate, whom laid on the torn couch, face buried on entertainment magazine. “Susu-ah…” he whimpered.“Ditto here. I’m more into watching hot girls in this magazine rather than watching those sweaty guys on field. Ewww…” Junsu put his horrible expression.“Hmph! Now, I wonder where those ‘We are your best buddy whenever you need us’ goes!” Jaejoong scowled.“We don’t mean it at frivolous thing like this, Joongie...” Changmin said while blowing another smoke.“Okay fine! I’ll go alone!”“Okay, but baby be careful. Don’t create a fuss out there when your knight in shining armor isn’t around you.” Changmin reminded him.“Hate you!” Jaejoong huffed angrily, but his angry face never sends any chills their spines, instead it always looks cute on their eyes.“Love you.” Changmin replied, much for Jaejoong to walk out with annoyance on face.“Do you think he will be okay being alone on the field?” Junsu turned to Changmin once Jaejoongwalked out of the room. They knew well that their friend just looks delinquent outside but childish and sometimes clumsy inside, in addition with this; he still seems very prone in getting into trouble.“Doesn’t matter. As if there is someone dares to touch him, they must enough thinking uh.” Changmin assured.It had been half an hour since Jaejoong settled his butt on the side of the field and engrossed with watching people play baseball when out of sudden some students gather around him.“Yah, are you a new kid? Never see you around before.” One of those hooligan-look boys, thathas a long stitch scar on his side cheek, asked.‘Tch, mind your own business!’ He grumped inwardly didn’t like the way the boy approached him. The boy is much taller than him and have good body build, but he is sure that these boys were juniors. Of course most of students barely know him as he always spend the whole day of school at his loitering nest and butt off only when bell rang for end of school. “Excuse me…” Jaejoong not replied, instead he got up from his seat to walk pass them, but the latter stopped him by firmly holding his shoulder. “No one ever shrug off my question. How could you…” The boy felt annoyed, and his other friends sniggered.“Who cares..? If there's no one, so I'll bethe one...”“You’re freaking arrogant!” The boy harshly clenches Jaejoong’s collar neck, “You really don’t know who I am uh?”Jaejoong just threw a boring look towards the boy. “Let me go, you asshole. If you don’t wanna get beat into pulp.” Jaejoong pushed the boy, but he didn’t budge instead, the boy had turn rampantly in his rage as he landed his firm fist on the side of Jaejoong’s face.Jaejoong tried to crawl up but the boy had instructed all his friendsto join him as they beat him more. He bawl in pain on the dirty ground. Jaejoong thought he is gonna die there without got a chance for saying his last goodbye to his brother, but seems not. As all the boys immediately retreated as one by one winced in pain as they gotten shoot on their head by the sudden flew of baseball. Jaejoong slowly looked up, and saw his two bratty mates busy in their stupid attacking method.“Gosh, Changmin! You miss the target, and even break the class window! Teacher will be coming soon, better off!” Junsu nagged as he held the basket full of balls, while Changmin acted as the best pitcher with threw the ball straight on the head of those bullies that huddled on Jaejoong.“I know. It’s just an accident.” The taller boy stayed calm, even the balls happened to smashed one of the glass windows of the opposite building. “Su, you settle the rest. I want to catch the bastards’ leader.” Changmin command as he missed to hit the leader’s head, as the boy quickly running out off the field.“Roger…” Junsu said as his devilish smirking face reveal, and firm fist ready to attack its prey. Once Kim Junsu had rampantly with his own rage, no one could pulled him back to his natural state, even Jaejoong can’t.“You better show some respect to your senior idiot! Fool! Moron!” Junsu keep beating those boys that are already weakened by the shoot of balls before.“Junsu, enough!” Jaejoong shouted as he saw Junsu still in his fully vigor in beating.“Aish, What should I do? He usually will stop when he’s tired.” Jaejoong sighs as he ignored his friend that still blow up and proceed with picks up all the balls that scattered around him into its basket back, being such a kind kid instead, while waiting for Junsu finished his ‘job’.After seems five minutes…<
