SEOJUN'S POV
"Jun , you know you've been staring at me for like the past 10 minutes " Haeun said while giggling and my god nothing could be more cuter than that.
"It's your fault to look this cute" I said while jokingly pinching her nose
She groaned and removed my hands.
"Nonsense" She said while massaging her nose
"You know Eun that ain't t-"
Buzz
Buzz
Just then my phone rang cutting off my sentence.
I ignored it already knowing who it was.
"Jun, pick it up. It might be urgent"
Haeun said with a smile while signaling me to pick it up.
I groaned but eventually picked it up.
"Seojun where are you? " My dad asked first.
Of course who would it be besides my Dad. Honestly I'm sick and tired now, can't he just let me have a nice moment for once? He's been pressuring me for the past 3 months to take after his business but you know what I don't care about the damn business. Being the CEO itself was enough but taking up the business was too much. I wanted to do my own stuffs I have my own goals but there he was doing his own things.
"Jeon Seojun? " My dad's fuming voice brought me out of my thoughts.
"Yes, Dad" I answered before sighing
"Where are you? " His voice stern and cold as usual.
"Nothing that you should know" I answered in the same tone as my dad.
He sighed before answering and I knew this conversation would lead to a quarrel.
"Come home now. We got to talk"
"No" I replied .Wasn't it obvious?
There was silence for a moment but I heard him chuckling
"Jeon Seojun it's about your brother I'm sure you won't decline it would you? "
And there he goes blackmailing me by using my brother's name.
I sighed before answering
"Fine "
I answered short and hung my phone.
I ruffled my hair in annoyance and looked up to see my Eun smiling at me , she might have guessed it by now. It's always been like this, we haven't even had a proper date since the day I joined my dad's company. I feel bad for her but I can't help it.
"It's okay Jun. It might be urgent. Make it up on my birthday" She placed her hand on top of mine while smiling
I hate that understanding smile. Can't she for one time not be so selfless. It make me feel more guilty whenever she smiles like that .
"I'm sorry Eun. I'll definitely make it up on your birthday" Having said that I stood up and placed a kiss on her forehead before leaving her, heading towards my home.
***
"Oh you're here" My dad said looking up from the novel,as soon as I entered my house.
"Get to the point.What is it? "I answered not wanted to having any conversation with him.
" Come and sit " He said signalling me to take the seat in front of him.
I rolled my eyes before walking towards him and sitting in the spot he said.
"Good news for you. You're gonna have your marriage with Mr. Manoban's only daughter ,on 18th march which is next month. "
What the heck
Marriage?
Next month?
I got up from my seat
"What nonsense" I replied raising my voice
"Calm down Seojun. " He replied flipping the page of the novel he was reading.
"How the heck am I supposed to calm down.I have a girlfriend and I love her" I spat back
How the fuck do I calm down. He clearly knows I have a girlfriend and that I'll marry only her.
"You don't want your brother to take after the business and leave his passion do you? " He answered back with a sly smile on his face.
"What? " I questioned back not understanding what he was saying.
"If you don't marry Ava Manoban then I'll have to call your brother to make him take after the business and your brother will have to leave his passion of artwork in New Zealand and come back to S. Korea. And I'm sure you won't want that do you? "
What the fuck
How can he
I was torn between my brother and my Eun.
My brother was 22 when he finally gathered his courage to tell my dad that he wanted to be a painter and not take after the business, surely it did take time to convince my dad but after a year he agreed and that is how he went to New Zealand to pursue his dream. But now clearly knowing that my brother won't refuse anything that my dad says he's taking full advantage of it by always blackmailing me using my brother's name. My brother is too selfless and that is the reason why I always give in to my dad's blackmailing knowing the fact that my brother won't fight for himself. But now the situation is completely bad . I can't choose one out of the two whom I love the most.
I took a deep breath before staring at my dad
"Okay"
In the end I choose my brother.
"Good!the Manoban's will be coming here in three days but their daughter will be here by next week.You can go now "
As soon as he spoke I left the living room as it was very suffocating.
After getting inside my room I plopped on my bed and took a deep breath to calm myself.
The thing that happened, the conversation with dad was just bullshit
I... I wasn't able to think properly
It was either my brother or my Eun
I couldn't help but be selfish to choose my brother.
After mom passed away , my brother was the one who was truly there for me and remembering those things made me even more guilty to choose Eun over him.
The things he did for me were beyond being thankful.
I couldn't.... Couldn't just let go of my brother...
Just then my phone beeped
I opened it to see a message from Eun
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Eun:Hey Jun. Hope everything's fine there. Don't worry much and sleep on time. Goodnight Jun. I love you.
Jun:Everything's fine
here Eun. And yes I'll
sleep on time.Good night
and Love you too

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
*sighs*
Whatever it is, I'll talk to Eun about this ,better to tell it than to keep her in lie.
It's just a Contract for me
This marriage means nothing to me. It's just a mere contract for my brother's happiness.
Once married I'll divorce with Ava Manoban or whoever she is.
And solve this problem.
Forever.
