Fate

Chapter 13

Hakyeon entered the studio. Turning the lights on and putting down his backpack, he straight went to the stereo. Thinking which song he should dance to, in the competition. Leo doing his casual job, just went in a corner and sat down. Looking at what Hakyeon was doing.

"What do you think? Should I dance on a Korean song or an English song?"

Leo didn't change his phrase. He just gave him an empty stare.

"Have you heard the song 'Paper Thin'? You called me that yesterday?"

"I did?"

"Yes," Hakyeon turned to him.

"I haven't heard it."

"hmm.....I was thinking of dancing to that though." Hakyeon whimpered.

"Hyung, are you in?" Hongbin's voice echoed in that half empty room as he entered the practice room.

"Ahh, Hongbinnie... You are already here?"

Leo shifted his gaze to the young man that entered the room.

"hmm.... Ravi told me that you had something to do with me," He said avoiding Hakyeon's eyes.

"Yes, I want you to do collaboration with me." Hakyeon said sending him an ear to ear grin.

"ah....I see..." he still didn't look up. He just nodded his head. Hakyeon turned to the stereo again, to select which song they will be preparing. While Leo observed the man , biting his lips with a nervous gaze, as if he want to say something but he couldn't.

Finally he decided to say it anyway.

"Hyung, yesterday when I returned home, I found Ravi crying..."

"huh....why?" Hakyeon darted his gaze at him.

"Well.....he was crying because you called him a murderer." Hongbin's voice was in full volume now.

"Murderer? I never called him that....."

"You didn't? But he said you interrogated hi-"

"I asked him, why he didn't know about Yang Yeseob's death despite of going there." Hakyeon sternly cut him off.

"Well, why would you ask him that?" Hongbin retorted.

"Why can't I? Most importantly, why did he think that I called him a killer?"Hakyeon said in a serious tone.

"well...maybe...I dunno...." Hongbin gave up.

Hakyeon shifted his gaze to the stereo. Turning on the remix version of Britney Spears "Toxic" he started to walk towards Hongbin.

"This is the song we are going to use. So we better start planning. By the way, where is Ravi now? He said he would send two female dancers. It'd have been better if we planned with them."

Hakyeon said in a calm tone. But knowing Hakyeon for a long time it didn't take Hongbin much time to realize that Hakyeon was annoyed and troubled now. And as for Leo..... hearing Hakyeon's questions he became confused.

So......motherly love only exists for...Hongbin? Why is he so much suspicious of Ravi now?

"Ravi is going to Jeju-do today. With his group.....as some back up dancer or something I dunno..."

Hongbin just replied.

Leo stared at the two sitting figure discussing how they were going to perform and writing it down in a white paper. Now he was too confused of who to even suspect now. Even Ravi felt like a suspect to him now.
