Chereads / Pity Me / Chapter 36 - CHAPTER 35

Chapter 36 - CHAPTER 35

Leo meowed at Luna as he sat in her lap so that she would pay him attention, but she was in the middle of a silent crisis.

She was sitting in her lounge, and couldn't go to the airport with Haemin and Joy because Jihoon had work to do,

The flight would leave in half an hour and the airport was ten minutes away and her nerves were going crazy.

She handed Leo over to the maid, "Have Leo checked into any good pet hotel and apply for the grooming experience, tell them he needs to have his fur trimmed and nails cut, and any other treatment they recommend. Ill be back on Sunday night."

"Yes, ma'am." The maid took Leo away and the traitorous cat was purring in her hands too.

"Wow, Im raising a disloyal cat." She muttered to herself.

"JIHOON HURRY UP!" She shouted towards his office, but he didn't respond.

She whined and pulled her hair,

The door to Jihoon's office opened and he came rushing out, "Lets go, lets go."

She got up and they both got in the car,

Luna punched Jihoon's arm,

"We may miss the flight!"

"Then we'll take the jet." He replied calmly.

She slapped his arm again, "Because of you I couldn't go with Haemin."

He took the hits, "You'll be with him all weekend."

"Who are you to say when I get to see him and when I don't, I wanna be with him forever!" She landed a final punch and deflated in her place.

He sighed, "You like him that much?"

"More than that much." She mumbled.

"Im sorry for the delay, if I hadn't dealt with this client, Hyuck Kim would've gotten him."

"I wish I could help you with that."

"Hmm maybe you can."

Luna turned to him, puzzled, "How?"

"Ill let you know when you can."

They got out of the car and ran through the airport and through the terminal, the club members were already seated.

Luna looked at her ticket, her seat was with Joy and Jihoon's was with Yohan,

"Luna, take Jihoon's ticket and go sit in his seat, I already made Haemin switch with Yohan." Joy whispered in her ear.

"Oh, okay. Jihoon, switch seats with me."

He looked between Joy and her and the hostess told them to stop standing in the aisle, "Oh for god's sake." Joy snatched Jihoon's ticket, she handed it to Luna and sent her off.

Jihoon was still clueless, but sat down nonetheless, "What just happened?" He asked Joy.

"I had Haemin and Luna sit together, Im trying to set them up."

"Oh yeah Luna told me."

"And Iv been meaning to talk to you aswell." She turned to him, "This weekend is the perfect opportunity for Luna and I tend to use it to the fullest and for that I'll need your help."

Jihoon pretended to think, "What's in it for me?"

"Your sister's happiness?"

He liked that Joy called Luna his sister, "Uh no actually, my sister has been through alot she needs a whole lot of other things and a boyfriend isnt one of them."

"Really? Like what?"

"She needs a family, a steady and stable environment, people who will be there for her all the time, she needs therapy as well, professional and familial. Having a boyfriend may bring heart break."

"Haemin wouldn't do that."

"What's the guarantee?"

"Because I say so!" Joy said exasperatedly.

"That makes it all the more less believable."

"Look, I know you have a grudge against me for god knows what, but this is our siblings' happiness, you have to help me."

"I have a condition."

Joy rolled her eyes, " What, you want me to go out with you?" She smirked.

"Yes, actually. That is what I was going to ask you."

Joy blinked, "But that day you didnt seem, I mean why suddenly, OHH okay I get it."

Jihoon chuckled at her loudness and was glad that the sound of the plane taking off lessened hers.

"You were playing hard to get weren't you." Joy came to a realization.

Jihoon pursed his lips, "I guess I was." He wasn't sure himself, this was the first time he was pondering over these things.

Joy smirked, he wasn't gay after all, "Fine, one date. I cant promise anything else"

Jihoon gave her a small smile, "That's all I need for now,"

Joy was curious as to what was going on his mind, he didn't seem crazy for her, then why was he asking her out?

"Why couldn't you get any sleep last night, Storm isn't a problem anymore." Luna uttered softly directing at his droopy state.

Haemin spoke without opening his eyes, "I was playing video games with Yohan, he had to complete some challenges that require a second player."

"But you should've told him you were sleepy."

"It was fun, I usually don't play online games, but this one was cool."

Luna sighed, he was hopelessly overindulged in his selflessness agenda.

He tried to go to sleep but the seat wasn't that comfortable, however ten minutes later he was out. His head was hanging and he kept falling onto the guy next to him.

Luna apologized to the guy and grabbed Haemin's head and rested it on her shoulder.

Subconsciously he nuzzled into her neck and she felt breathless.

"Haemin." She said lowly but he didnt respond.

"Haemin." She tried again but he really was asleep.

Slowly she raised her hand and caressed his hair.

And they were softer than she had imagined.

Across her lips a wide smile spread and she rested her head lightly against his,

This weekend really was going to be a fruitful opportunity for her and Haemin, just like Joy had said.
