SOOHA looked around the cafeteria, finding empty table for him to have his seat and eat his lunch. He kept on looking around but all table seemed to look full, until he saw figures, looking at him, while waving their hands excitedly. A smile was drawn onto his face. He quickly walked towards the two figures who were waving.
"It's lunch time, so you have to endure it to find empty seats at this hour," SooA said as she took away her bag from the empty seat next to her.
Sooha put down his tray of food, and looked at SooA and Semi, "Thanks. I cant go home today because I have class at two, that's why I am having lunch here,"
Semi looked at Sooha, "You go back home every lunch time?" she asked, looking at him with her surprised face.
Sooha nodded his head, "My place is just behind the campus,"
SooA and Semi looked at each other, then the two of them turned to Sooha who was about to dig into his food. Sooha looked at them, frowning, "What is it?"
"You have your own place?" Semi asked.
"You must be pretty wealthy," SooA said.
Sooha looked at the two of them with his widened eyes. After a while, he burst into laughter. The two of them were both confused. Sooha smiled, looking at the two of them all confused really made him wanna tease them both more.
"It's not my own place, I rented it." he said, looking at Semi, "And, I am not wealthy, I told you guys during the orientation week, that I registered a bit late, right? So, I was working at that time, to cover my study here," he added, while turning his head looking at SooA with a smile on his face.
"My brothers helped me out a bit with the rent, but most of my spending are from my own pocket. I do part-time online tutoring after classes, every day." he said, explaining himself, "But, I am free today though,"
SooA and Semi were both looking at him, out of words, perhaps. Sooha just chuckled,
"You don't really have to be that shocked," he said.
He took a sip of him banana milk before continue eating his lunch. The two girls still seemed to be in shock, but looking at how they still managed to eat while thinking their head off about his life, Sooha could only manage to draw a short smile on his face.
"That's it, let's visit Sooha oppa's house today!"
Now Sooha was the one who was in shock, "W-what?"
💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙
"WELL, MAKES YOURSELF AT HOME,"
Sooha opened the door to his small studio apartment. He quickly got inside, preparing the in-house slippers he kept for his guests if he ever gonna have any. He also turned on the ventilation in his house, just in case SooA feels uncomfortable with his pheromones inside the house, since she's an Alpha.
"Thank you for having us!!" Semi and SooA said in unison as the two of them enter the house.
Semi looked amazed with the interior, while SooA was busy looking at the picture frames.
"I'm making some tea, and also snacks. Just make yourself comfortable. Turn on the TV if you want," Sooha said, as he walked towards the kitchen.
"Oppa, your apartment is so nice!" Semi said as she flopped onto his bed.
"This open-bedroom idea is so nice, it's giving a lot of free space in the house," SooA said as she dragged Semi out from the bed.
Sooha smiled as he heard the two of them with their compliments. Minha and Jooha were the ones handling all the stuffs with the interior. The two of them were both really good with managing the house while him and Taeha were both always in charge of cooking.
"Oh, is this you in middle school?"
Sooha's eyes widened as he heard SooA's question. Leaving all his stuffs, he quickly walked towards SooA who was holding a picture frame.
"Who's this guy next to y-"
"Hands off," Sooha said as he snatched the photo frame from SooA.
SooA looked at Sooha with her surprised face. Realizing the change on SooA's face, suddenly Sooha was stunned. He suddenly felt guilty for being mean towards her.
"I-I d-didn't mean t-"
SooA looked at Sooha, smiling as she looked at him with her tender eyes, "It's okay, oppa. It's my fault for being too nosy. I shouldn't have to-"
Sooha shook his head, "No, please don't apologize, I was the wrong one here,"
"Is the guy in the picture-"
"He's a close friend back in school," Sooha said. His hands were both still hugging the photo frame tightly.
SooA and Semi looked at each other. Looking at how Sooha was looking down, hugging on the picture frame tightly made them realized something new about Sooha. They noticed the slight blush on his face. Then the two of them smiled at each other.
💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙
SOOHA looked at Semi who was already fallen asleep on his bed. Somehow, the visit ended up being a sleepover instead. It's a good thing that Minha's clothes were kept in his wardrobe since she's planning to visit, so the girls just wore what ever they fit.
Sooha then looked at SooA who was sipping on her beer as she watched the TV. After tucking Semi on the bed, he walked towards SooA, flopping on the next small couch next to the one she was sitting on with a pack of snack.
SooA turned her head towards Sooha when a pack of snack was shoved right in front of her face, she looked surprised.
"You want?" Sooha asked with a smile on his face.
SooA smiled as she grabbed a few, "Sorry that we ended up having a sleepover in your place,"
Sooha shook his head, "Nah, I dont really mind. I rarely have anyone coming rather than my family," he said.
"It's a surprise to me that you have female clothing in your wardrobe, though," SooA said, looking at Sooha with a smile on his face, "You have a gi-"
"It's my sister's. I just keep them with me, just in case she barged in on her own in the house." Sooha said, cutting off SooA's words, "I actually live nearby with my family. It's just that I am planning to live alone in my university years to gain experience," he added.
SooA nodding her head as she turned her head towards the TV. The two of them suddenly fell into silence. The only thing they could hear was Semi's grumbling voice while sleeping, and her snores.
"Urm .."
Sooha flinched.
"I am not trying to be nosy..."
He looked at SooA. She was still facing the TV, "I am curious," she said in a slow voice.
Sooha frowned, "Curious?"
SooA turned her head towards Sooha,
"I am curious with the person in the picture frame earlier," she said, looking at Sooha with anticipation.
Sooha looked at SooA. Looking at how she was anticipating a good answer from him made him feel pressured. He took a deep breath, as his mind was thinking words to be said.
He never talked about his past even to anyone.
Not even his family.
And Wooju,... he hasn't seen him since he left.
"You don't really have to answer me if you think that it's pressuring you,"
Sooha looked at SooA, "Erm,.. no." he said in a slow voice.
"It's just that, I rarely talk about anything about my life with other people," he added as he hugged onto the small pillow he always put on his couch.
SooA chuckled, "That's why I said you don't have to push yourself,"
Sooha shook his head. He took a deep breath,
"That picture ..."
