Renjun walked back home with a wide smile. He was.. glad. Glad that they had decided to talk, for the first time, not as parent and teacher, but also as two people of the same age and same mentality. Out of nowhere, it all just clicked. Perfectly.
Shinhye, such a pretty name. His head wouldn't stop repeating that moment when she said it. There was something so gorgeous about the name, it just sounded very angelic. Other than that, he couldn't pinpoint the feeling. But..
It was a nice feeling.
As Renjun approached the front door, he felt eyes looking in through his soul. He ignored this uneasy feeling of being watched, but it wouldn't stop. With the anxiety of the main character in a horror movie, Renjun's eyes looked for any murderers, stalkers or criminals of other sorts, praying in his head to whatever was listening out there, please, I have to live to see my daughter grow into a woman, I cannot die right now- I mean otherwise like it's okay if you promise her a good home or something- NOT AT THE HANDS OF LEE DONGHYUCK I DON'T TRUST HIM PLEASE UNDERSTAND-
Renjun opened the door ever so slightly. There was no one in sight.
"You are here."
Renjun could've sworn he felt his soul go and come out of his body. He screamed on the top of his lungs only to see the anti-climax of the moment: Lee Haechan, wearing black sunglasses, smirking.
RENJUN- THE HELL'S WRONG WITH YOU?!
HAECHAN- Exactly, ✨e v e r y t h i n g✨.
RENJUN- Thank you for stating the obvious, thanks. You scared me there- what's this about--
HAECHAN- I think I'm the one who should be asking you that? What is the tea? SPILL IT.
RENJUN- What tea-
The smirk reappeared on Haechan's face.
HAECHAN- You slithering, gatekeeping snake. Tsk tsk.
RENJUN- I do not follow- what are you talking about?
HAECHAN- What is this about- THAT IS WHAT YOU ARE ASKING.
Renjun cursed to himself on realization as to what this might be about.
RENJUN- I swear to the hell and heavens if this is about-
HAECHAN- *scoffs* YOU DID NOT THINK IT WAS NECESSARY FOR ME TO KNOW THIS-
RENJUN- Before you lose your final two braincells, Donghyuck, firstly: she isn't my girlfriend, number two: you can conclude your many assumptions. You know who Shinhye is-
HAECHAN- What? Who's Shinhye? Wait.. what are you talking about?
RENJUN- What are you talking about-
HAECHAN- YOUR NEW PS5? Yunhee told me that Mrs. Huang sent it for me? AND YOU USED IT? I knew my mother hadn't forgotten me-
RENJUN- You mean my mother. Not your mother. But you were talking about-
HAECHAN- Yeah? The PS5? Hold the phone- what were you talking about?
RENJUN- Oh. You were talking about- oh- OH- sorry I thought you were talking about something else-
HAECHAN- Okay but now I'm interested- who's Shinhye?
Oh God.
HAECHAN- IS IT THAT TEACHER? MS. NA? Did you just... call her by her first name?
RENJUN- Oh you know- hehe- we are like- the same age and s-stuff. Like you k-know friends-
HAECHAN- I'm sorry- friends? Bro she was just 'Yunhee's teacher' like yesterday- HUANG RENJUN WHAT'S GOING ON-
RENJUN- Damn I am starving aren't you? Let's eat dinner-
HAECHAN- SO WHAT IS GOING TO BE TOMORROW- GIRLFRIEND, THEN THE DAY AFTER, WIFE, I DON'T KNOW WHAT COMES NEXT- YUNHEE HAVING SIBLINGS?!
RENJUN- We barely know each other- we are friends- WHAT IS THIS CONVERSATION ABOUT-
HAECHAN- YOU STARTED IT. Plus, I am not used to you having female friends. It's very unlikely for you- you know- hanging out with the female species other than your awesome mother-
RENJUN- You are overreacting, Hyuck. Besides it is not like I haven't had a single girlfriend- I had one in high school? I mean that wasn't a serious relationship or anything-
HAECHAN- YOU HAD A GIRLFRIEND IN HIGH SCHOOL?!?!
RENJUN- Ooh did I not tell you about that-
HAECHAN- You- I'm done. I'm done. NO I AM DONE. This is too much to process- just- YUNHEE SWEETIE YOU ARE GETTING A MOTHER SOON-
RENJUN- WHAT ARE YOU DOING- NO SHE ISN'T GETTING A "MOTHER"... at least not yet..
HAECHAN- Not- NOT YET? WHAT IS THAT SUPPOSED TO MEAN- NO SHE DEFINITELY IS GETTING A MOTHER-
RENJUN- CAN YOU SHUT IT-
HAECHAN- YOU KNOW WHAT- YOU HAVE A MOTHER, WHO I WILL BE CALLING SOON- MRS. HUANG YOUR SON IS GETTING MARRI-
RENJUN- I hope that in an alternate universe we are not friends.

"I hope in an alternate universe we are not twins, Jaemin. In fact, I hope we don't know each other-"
"I mean that totally makes sense- WHO WOULD HIDE FROM THEIR BROTHER THAT THEY ARE DATING SOMEONE?"
"For the last time-"
By what ill-fate no one would know, but Jaemin saw Shinhye bidding farewell to Renjun outside the building from the balcony. Hence, he considered it his right to interrogate further.
JAEMIN- What is his name-
SHINHYE- Jaemin I swear to God-
JAEMIN- I JUST ASKED A SIMPLE QUESTION-
SHINHYE- NA JAEMIN.
JAEMIN- I NEED TO KNOW-
SHINHYE- I'M BRINGING OUT LE CHANCLA-
JAEMIN- Okayyy you don't have to say anything, older sister. *bows* wait- WE ARE THE SAME AGE, WHY SHOULD I BE SCARED OF YOU?
SHINHYE- Uhh no we aren't I'm 2 whole minutes older than you. And I can hold it over you anytime I wish.
JAEMIN- I-
SHINHYE- And you can't do shit about it- DANG THE POWER I HOLD- YOU ARE TOAST KID-
JAEMIN- We are deviating too far off from the topic- YOU HAVE A BOYFRIEND I DIDN'T KNOW OF IS CLEARLY THE BIGGER PROBLEM.
SHINHYE- MUST I REPHRASE: I DON'T HAVE A BOYFRIEND AND YOU KNOW THAT. I WILL IN FACT DIE ALONE. AND NO, I DO NOT HAVE ANY PROBLEM WITH THAT WHATSOEVER. I WILL BE THE COOL AUNT TO YOUR KIDS WHO LIVES ALONE WITH 10 KITTENS. END OF DISCUSSION. LET'S EAT BECAUSE I AM STARVING GODDAMMIT.
JAEMIN- *murmurs* But you are the female lead in the fanfiction-
SHINHYE- WHAT DID YOU SAY-
JAEMIN- N-NOTHING.
SHINHYE- KEEP IT THAT WAY. 2 MINUTES OLDER THAN YOU.
JAEMIN- You aren't hiding anything right?
SHINHYE- NO SHUT UP I HAVE THE HIGHER GROUND-
JAEMIN- HATE TO BREAK IT TO YA BUT 2 MINUTES DOES NOT COUNT AS AN AGE DIFFERENCE. YOU STILL NEED TO EXPLAIN. WHO WAS IT?
SHINHYE- HE WAS MR. NONE OF YOUR GODDAMN BUSINESS. Now let me eat in... piece. *holds up slice of cake* Get it? PIECE-
JAEMIN- Bro you need therapy.
SHINHYE- I always have needed therapy. You know when I did not need therapy? The first two minutes of my life, when you didn't exist-
JAEMIN- GIRL IF YOU DON'T STOP IT WITH THE 2 MINUTES-
Shinhye held up her hand, an idea coming to her head. This was going to be the most useful that the 2 minutes prior birth would come.
SHINHYE- Okay let us have a deal. You stop questioning me about the men I know in my life--
JAEMIN- MEN? DID I HEAR A PLURAL WORD-
SHINHYE- The men in my life also includes you, idiot. And Jeno and Hyunsuk, besties. SO yes it is indeed in plural.
JAEMIN- Those two are fine, but there better not be any more-
SHINHYE- Back to my point, if you stop questioning me about the men in my life, I'll stop using the 2-minutes-older card.
Jaemin thought the deal through, and after, well, 2 minutes, he came to a conclusion.
JAEMIN- If either of us break it, then it's over.
SHINHYE- So it is a yes...?
JAEMIN- Deal.
The both of them shook hands, with bitterness from both sides: Jaemin was still apprehensive about this guy. From a more serious point, he did not want a repetition of last time. Sangwoo's name still got his blood boiling. Better be glad that he wasn't there when he approached Shinhye again.
JAEMIN- Okay now I am hungry.
SHINHYE- Same. LET'S EAT.
JAEMIN- YASS LESS GETTIT. Also, you know what happened yesterday...
