"You just dumped her!! You think it's not wrong?"

"Well, it's for her sake. What's wrong with it?"
CEO Shim Jaehwan sighed on the other side of the phone.

"Look, Son. You should at least know her first. I know she's on the tough side but i promise you. She's worth the time. Ask her out. I'm sure you'll like-"

"Oh there's the pizza delivery. I'll hung up now dad."
Jake glared at Sunghoon who swallowed all of the gummy bears on his mouth.

"Pizza Delivery!!-*cough cough! "
Sunghoon shouted trying to change his voice but failed because of the gummy bears stucked on his throat.

"I know that's Sunghoon, son. Please give her a chance-"

"Talk to you later dad. Bye."
He hung up the call after he bid his goodbye.

"What was that?!! You dumped someone?!!!"
Sunghoon looked at Jake as if he's proud of him. 

"I didn't. There's no love interest on the first place."
Jake looked at his direction with an arched eyebrow.

"Ohhhh really? Not at all?"
Jake glanced at his direction. Sunghoon shrugged his shoulder.

"So who is she? From a famous family too? What's her business lineage? Is she cute? Hot? I wanna know!!"
Jake rolled his eyes and think of the best description for her.

"You remember our university dean?"

Sunghoon nodded his head. Thinking about the old lady on her glasses and gray hair, always have her eyebrows arched and nagging at every student she'll see.

"You mean that single lady on her menopausal stage that's why she's so salty with everyone?"
Jake nodded his head. Sunghoon laughed.

"Like her."

"That's awful! HAHAHAHAHA!"
He laughed. Jake hissed, finding his laugh very annoying.

"Mr. Park, what the hell are you doing here inside my house anyways?"
He asked the latter. Sunghoon's eyes widen up as if he just remembered something.

"Ow shoot. I forgot to tell you."
Jake walked towards the sofa as Sunghoon spoke.

"I fvcked up."
Jake turned around, Meeting Sunghoon's widened eyes.

"Don't tell me you got someone pregnant."
He hopped on the sofa and chuckled. Sunghoon followed him.

"No way, I always use protection."
Jake glared at him. Sunghoon chuckled at him finding him ridiculous.

"You know i'm kidding right?"
Jake's eyes even grew bigger.

"You are not using protection now?"

"Asshole."
Sunghoon rolled his eyes. Jake chuckled at him.

"So what is it?"

"I just spilled tea on Eunji's homework and she's mad at me now."
He said pouting.

"And...? Why are you here?"

"I want you to help her out making it again."

"You can do it yourself."
Sunghoon shook his head.

"Aniyooo she isn't even talking to me right nooow. I know she' ll like it more if you were the one to help her."

"And why is that?"

Sunghoon smiled mischievously.

"Nothing~"

"I'm calling the security."
Jake stood up and walked towards the telephone. Sunghoon followed him.

"Yah Jake-ah you're really calling the security to dump your bestfriend?"
Sunghoon yelled at him. Jake turned around, looking at him blankly.

"Yeah."
Sunghoon facepalmed and pulled him away from the telephone.

"Please just this once. Help me with this one."
Sunghoon pleaded. Jake sighed,

"Fine."
He sighed, he doesn't have any choice. Sunghoon is a tough rock. He doesn't know when to give up. Jake turned around and walked towards his room to change his clothes.

"We need to think of something to make him agree to the proposal. We need to close the deal..."
She whispered to herself, looking at Jake's profile scattered on her table.

"Dig deeper on him Jay. Make sure to take smaller details this time."
She said to Jay without even looking.

"Don't you think you are already going overboard?"
Jay asked her. She tilted her head.

"He's playing hard to get. I'll make sure to catch him no matter what."
She said, portraying no emotion on her face despite throwing a strong phrase.

'Jake Shim... I'll make sure to capture you no matter what.'
