Between The Hidden World And Ours... - [YEONGYU FF]

Chapter 14

Bzzz. Bzzz. Bzzz.

"Oh come on pick up!" Beomgyu urged.

Another day has passed, and Beomgyu was settled in his bed, snuggled up in his favorite hoodie as he waited for the call to be picked up.

Yeonjun was out picking some fruit in the wild, since they were out and wanted something sweet to snack on, so he'll be out for a while.

Which was perfectly fine for Beomgyu— he needed an emergency conference with—

Beep!

FUCKING FINALLY.

"Hey guys," he greeted.

["Wow Beomgyu, you've gotten really tan!"]

"Shut up Snow White."

Snow White, also known as Choi Soobin, just giggled and continued apply makeup to his face.

Probably for another tutorial, Beomgyu guessed, given that Soobin worked as a YouTube influencer due to his passion for makeup.

["How have you been Beomgyu?"]

"Great, thanks."

The second person here was Beomgyu's ride or die, Kai, who was scooping his favorite yoghurt into his mouth, which made the scientist guess he was again watching the How To Train Your Dragon series on Netflix.

He wasn't wrong, given that Kai said this specific yoghurt only hits best while watching that show.

Nevertheless, with them being the best online friends possible, they had slightly interrupted their activities when Beomgyu called.

Especially because it's been about two weeks since he last did.

["How's the island?"] Soobin asked.

"Fine. No storms so far, and I don't think they'll be any."

["That's good! I would have already sent an emergency rescue helicopter if that weren't the case,"] Kai commented.

["And with a care package that weighs a ton."]

Beomgyu rolled his eyes.

"Touché."

["And what about your studies? Are they getting along?"]

"Yes Hyung."

["Will you share the files soon? I kinda wanna see them,"] Kai asked.

"Once I'm done, yeah."

["OUCH!"]

Soobin had put too much heat on his eyelash curler, and was now suffering from a minor burn on his eyelid skin.

"Be careful next time!" Beomgyu reprimanded.

["Sorry."]

["By the way Beomgyu, why'd you call?"] Kai questioned, putting his yogurt aside.

"Hmm?"

["Yeah, you said you may not be able to call because you're over-the-top busy with your research, or you just wanna be alone,"] Soobin rattled.

Usually, those kinds of remarks make Beomgyu roll his eyes, but this time he remained unbothered.

"I know."

["So, spill the tea!"]

Beomgyu sighed.

"I umm... I met someone on this island."

The tea has been spilled.

["Really?!"] Soobin gasped.

["Who?!?!"] Kai squealed.
