Chapter 3 - CHAPTER 3: Brother, where art thou

"it's your hundredth sigh today already. Are you going to blow me away with the air coming out of your lungs" Joon-oh said irritatebly to the depressed Soo Hyun.

"This week is indeed not my week" Soo Hyun said and sighed again which made joon-oh grin "is it because of the rumours about Jung Kyung and mi Kyung?"

"Of course, if it's true then does that mean I lost?" Soo Hyun muttered to himself and joon-oh just ignored him and continued typing away on his phone.

Mi Kyung and her friends walked into the class and took their sits around Soo Hyun and Joon-oh.

"We really did well on the project guys" mi Kyung said with a smile which caught joon-oh's attention.

"Really?"

"Of course, we're coming from professor Lee's office" one of mi Kyung's friends said and joon-oh muttered a wow

"Lee mi Kyung, is the rumour with Jung Kyung sunbae true?" Soo Hyun suddenly asked with a straight face.

The surprised mi Kyung was speechless, even his friend was embarrassed on his behalf

"What are you talking about?" She asked

"People are talking about it. About how you and Jung Kyung sunbae met outside campus" Soo Hyun said again

"Ah, but Jung Kyung sunbae is gay"

"What" both Soo Hyun and Joon-oh replied surprisingly

"You didn't know?" One of mi Kyung's friends said

"Lee mi Kyung" someone suddenly called from behind.

"Oppa" mi Kyung turned back and answered. It was Lee Jung Kyung

"Oppa?" Joon-oh repeated

Lee Jung Kyung walked over to them and put his hands around mi Kyung's neck

"Hold on, Lee Jung Kyung,Lee mi Kyung. Are you siblings?" Joon-oh asked

"Yes" Jung Kyung and mi Kyung answered together and Soo Hyun almost fainted on.

FLASHBACK:

Thursday afternoon, the seniors were playing soccer on the field.

Soo Hyun watched Jung Kyung intently from where he was standing. If looks could kill, Jung Kyung would've been dead on the spot

How dare he compete with him, he was going to show him who was boss later.

Yes, Jung Kyung might be slightly taller,but it doesn't mean he couldn't handle him. He clenched his fists tightly while waiting for him to finish playing.

20 minutes later, Lee Jung Kyung walked over to wash his face at the running tap when Min Soo Hyun approached him.

"Please pass me the soap" Jung Kyung said but Soo Hyun didn't move an inch. Jung Kyung stood straight and stared down at him. He thought the guy was weird.

He stretched his hand to reach the soap and Soo Hyun immediately swatted it away.

"What's with you weirdo" Jung Kyung said irritated. "Stay away from mi Kyung or I'll gouge your eyes out" Soo Hyun threatened

"Hey,aren't you a freshman? How dare you talk to a senior that way" Jung Kyung who was stunned scoffed in disbelief.

"Just stay away from mi Kyung" Soo Hyun threatened and walked away

....

The cafeteria buzzed with students grabbing lunch. Soo Hyun, Joon-oh, Mi Kyung, and Jung Kyung sat at a crowded table, the tension palpable.

Soo Hyun's eyes avoided Jung Kyung, his mind still reeling from what happened before. He couldn't believe Mi Kyung and Jung Kyung were siblings.

Joon-oh broke the silence. "So, Jung Kyung sunbae, you're Mi Kyung's oppa?"

Jung Kyung nodded, his expression serious. "Yes."

Mi Kyung smiled warmly. "Everyone except you guys knows."

Soo Hyun's face flushed, remembering his confrontation with Jung Kyung. He felt a pang of guilt.

Joon-oh intervened. "Let's just clear the air. Soo Hyun, what's going on?"

Soo Hyun hesitated, unsure how to explain.

Jung Kyung leaned forward, his eyes locked on Soo Hyun. "I think I know what's bothering him."

The table fell silent, awaiting Jung Kyung's next words.

"Go on," Mi Kyung encouraged.

Jung Kyung's gaze never left Soo Hyun. "It's about our little encounter outside campus, isn't it?"

Soo Hyun's heart san and he chuckled awkwardly "brother in law, it would be nice to put that behind us"

"Who's your brother in law you punk?" Jung Kyung muttered to himself

"Let me guess, you confronted him about the rumours without knowing they're siblings" Joon-oh said and soo Hyun's face fell. Joon-oh tsked and Shaked his head

"Do you go about threatening every guy around my sister?" Jung Kyung asked

"No sir. I guess I was too stressed that I lost control" Soo Hyun replied.

"Whatever. Mi Kyung, you shouldn't hang around guys like him. They are too toxic"

"Come on oppa, Soo Hyun's a nice guy" mi Kyung said with a warm smile. Soo Hyun's heart melted at the sight of mi Kyung's smile that he also smiled. Joon-oh cleared his throat bringing back Soo Hyun from his fantasy.

The air eased once again and everyone moved on from Soo Hyun's embarrassing moment

"Oppa, the alumni Reunion is next week and you didn't tell me?" Mi Kyung suddenly said after scrolling through her phone for a long time.

"You didn't ask" Jung Kyung replied

"Oppa, you selfish weirdo. You didn't tell me because Ji Hwan sunbae is gonna be there" mi Kyung whined. Soo Hyun was stunned and amazed at the same time.

Watching the sibling banter and seeing a new side of Lee mi Kyung aside from her usual gentle personality melted his heart.

"Hey, you better don't show your face there and start drooling all over my ji Hwan" Lee Jung Kyung and mi Kyung continued their banter

"What are they arguing about?" Soo Hyun leaned over to joon-oh and asked

"You don't know Do Ji Hwan the architecture department god?" Joon-oh asked surprised which caught the siblings attention

"You don't know him. This is my first time meeting someone who doesn't know him" Jung Kyung said

"Of course, Min Soo Hyun is the most Introverted person I've ever met. He never attends social clubs" Joon-oh said

"Do Ji Hwan, the most handsome guy in the department of architecture with broad chest and great abs....." Jung Kyung started

"Have you ever seen his abs" mi Kyung cut him off

"I can see them through his clothes dummy. As I was saying, he was also the top student. He graduated summa cum laude two years ago. Helped with designing the amazing library everyone enjoys today. He also parcitipated in so many volunteers services. Won so many medals for the school and now works at the best company in South Korea" Jung Kyung said in one breath

"Rumours has it that his family is so rich and that they have a secret business no one knows about" mi Kyung added

"He also has never been in any relationships. That makes him even hotter" Jung Kyung said and dramatically hand fanned himself.

Soo Hyun couldn't wrap his head around the Information they both shared but the only thing he could grap was that Lee mi Kyung also fancied this Ji Hwan the great. That made him hate the guy already.

"I get the fact that Mi Kyung fancy him but you too sunbae?" Soo Hyun said

"Everyone has hots for Do Ji Hwan" Jung Kyung said

"Or is it because you're gay?" Soo Hyun suddenly asked

"What's wrong with being gay?" Jung Kyung said

"Don't you ever worry about how others see you? I mean the society is pretty harsh on people like you"

"People like me? What's wrong with me?

I don't care about how people see me and I dont care about society standards. You're the one who needs to check yourself" Jung Kyung said irritatebly and stood up "you don't want someone like him as your boyfriend do you?" Jung Kyung said to his sister and walked away in anger

"Mind what you say Soo Hyun" mi Kyung said to him and followed her brother.

Soo Hyun was confused as to why he would get mad. Even though he was against gay, he didn't say that to hurt his feelings.

"There goes your second impression" joon-oh said and also walked away from the cafeteria
