7:17 am – Jung Residence, Busan, South Korea

Jaehyun woke up to the sound of Sungchan banging on his bedroom door. When he heard it open, he was tempted to throw a pillow at his younger brother until he was beaten to it. Damn Sungchan and his baseball skills.

"Get up, hyung. We're going to shop." Sungchan materialized at the end of Jaehyun's bed. Being a tall glass of annoyance wasn't enough, so he pulled the duvet off his brother.

"What the fuck do you want?" Jaehyun grumbled. "Aren't you supposed to be preparing for the NCT project."

"The what?"

"The joint venture with Moon Corp. and Lee Industries?"

Sungchan blinked at his brother, wondering how he knew that. He can't help but comment. "You know, for someone who claims he doesn't give a fuck about the family business, you sure do know a lot of the new project." He raised an eyebrow.

"I don't." Jaehyun rolled his eyes, trying to cover himself with a duvet again. Sungchan stopped him before he could wrap himself like a burrito.

"Look, I'm sorry Bora-noona dumped you, which is sad, but you kinda had it coming, don't you think?"

At the mention of that, Jaehyun scoffed bitterly. "I didn't get dumped. We weren't even dating." He sounded like a pathetic loser, but Sungchan kept that to himself.

"That's even sadder." Sungchan pitied him, honestly. First girl he ever liked and it ended up like this. Well, he can't blame him, Jaehyun was never good in expressing his emotions. "C'mon, get up and shower."

"I have an appointment at the hospital. I can't go shopping." Jaehyun thought he'd escape his overly eager brother, but he was wrong.

"Great, then I'll come with you." Sungchan declared with no budge. When he received a glare from his brother, he huffed. "You're getting out of that bed whether you like it or not, hyung."

"Fine."

A few bickering's and sermons about Jaehyun's ugly ass army pants and sandals, the Jung Siblings finally went on their way to Kang Medical Center.

Much to Dr. Kang's surprise, it wasn't a set of Moon Siblings that came disrupting her office that fine morning.

"Jaehyun," she addressed, blinking owlishly at him and his sister. She realized he was there for his checkup. "You could've just called me over. I do house calls, you know?"

"It's fine. We're already here anyway." Jaehyun waved off, heading inside Dr. Kang's clinic.

"Okay." Iseul gestured for Sungchan to enter before her, smiling politely. "How's he holding up?"

"He's cranky."

The checkup wasn't that long. Iseul checked on Jaehyun's vitals, and inspected his wound for further inspection. She asked about the pain killers he's obsessed with, and reminded him that to only take some based on his prescription.

Afterwards, she permitted him to go, even offering to have an ambulance escort him back to their estate. Of course, he declined, ears reddening in embarrassment. Sungchan can't help but snicker into his hand. As the youngest Jung, he's often the recipient of the treatment, it was hilarious to his grown brother get his ass handed by the kind Dr. Kang.

"Hey, hyung didn't want to bring this up while you're depressed and all but you really need new clothes." Sungchan brought up just as they arrived at the hospital parking lot.

Jaehyun just sent him a dagger before hopping in the driver's seat, and starting the engine. Sungchan made himself comfortable in shotgun, eyeing his brother.
