The funny thing about this one is, minsan na nga lang sila kung mag-hang out ni Jeonghan hyung niya along with Chan, dito pa talaga sa lugar na 'to nila pipiliing pumunta.

Coincidence is a real jerk. Bastard. Hindi siya mapakali sa upuan niya at panay pa rin ang kagat sa straw niya. He wouldn't be able to keep this up. Whether he likes it or not, one of his friends will notice Chwe Hansol is also here, sitting not too far from them, ilang table lang ang pagitan.

Kung bakit kasi ng makapasok siya ay doon pa lang niya napansin na nandito rin pala si Hansol kasama ang soon to be girlfriend nitong si Choi Stephie. That's why when he told Jeonghan and Chan to go to other places, hindi na pumayag ang dalawa dahil bukod sa mainit sa labas, gusto rin talaga nilang kumain sa lugar na 'to.

Wala siyang ibang nagawa kung hindi ang magstay sa upuan niya.

Kaya siguro hindi pa rin napapansin ng mga kasama niya na nandito rin si Hansol ay dahil nakatalikod sila mula sa dalawa. Which is a good thing. There's no problem with the other table since Hansol's attention seemed to  be in Steph only. This time, that became a good thing. Ayaw na niyang magpansinan pa silang lahat hanggang sa mauwi sila sa iisang table. Seeing them together in person is something he couldn't handle now.

Pero speaking of, inis pa rin siya kasi kakagaling lang ng dalawa sa date nung isang araw tapos nagdate na naman ngayon. Hansol now spends his weekends with someone else. Pati pala Saturday and Sunday, hindi na kanya.

Oh, well.

"Hyung, hoy!"

He slightly jolted, blinking dumbly at Chan who was watching him with knitted brows. Gan'un din ang reaksyon ni Jeonghan. Yikes. He totally forgot he's with them.

"Sa'n ka ba nakatingin—" titingin na sana ito sa likuran nito pero kaagad namang hinila niya pabalik ang ulo ng maknae nila. What the heck.

Chan frowned at him.

"A-ano ba kasi 'yon, bebe?"

Whew. Mabuti na lang at hindi na sila tumingin sa likuran.

Jeonghan was leaning on his chair while sipping on his drink. "Ayaw mo ba talaga dito? Hindi mo pa ginagalaw pagkain mo."

Chan nodded. "May problema ka ba, hyung?"

Seungkwan stalled. He knew it's not good for people when they bottle their thoughts, opinions and feelings inside them. Even though his feelings were not really a secret (lahat na halos napapansin 'yon), he doesn't really tell those people who already knew, what he thinks of this situation he's in. Maski kina Seokmin at Soonyoung, hindi naman niya bigla bigla na lang ikekwento ang mga frustrations niya kay Hansol. If anything, he never once told them things concerning his unrequited love.

Hinahayaan lang talaga niyang pansinin ng iba. Kahit sila, hindi rin naman nagtatanong ng totoong nararamdaman niya. They just let this happen everyday as if it was natural. Na akala mo naman forever nandiyan 'tong feelings niya, hindi aalis. He never really deals with his feelings seriously. Magpapakaseryoso siya e at the end of the day, kay Hansol pa rin naman ang bagsak niya. At the end of the day, wala pa rin namang magbabago dito.

It's just that, for the first time, he wanted to hear anyone about their thoughts on this. Hindi niya alam kung alam na ba ni Chan at Jeonghan ang nararamdaman niya para kay Hansol but at least, Jeonghan and Chan belong to that 'innocence and basically just mangmang sa paligid type' of their group with Hansol, Junhui, Seungcheol and Mingyu as the other members.
