Bound

chapter 35

For the whole ride, Felix kept silent.
His eyes closed, and he had heavy breaths, that he tried his best not to make obvious.
However, both Minho and Hyunjin were getting more worried.
Something seemed off about Felix, and it wasn't a good thing.

"Lix?"
Minho called, getting a hum from the younger that still hadn't opened his eyes.
"Are you sure you are okay?"
Felix sighed before he finally opened his eyes.
Looking at his lover first, then at his brother.
God, he felt like fucking shit.
"Yeah hyung, I'm sure. Can you pass me your phone?"
"My phone?"
"Yeah"

Minho gave his brother the device, looking up at the review mirror from time to time to see what was you younger up to.
"What's fucking going on?"
They heard Felix mumble.
Hyunjin turns around immediately, to see what's wrong.
"What?"
"She's not picking up her phone still"
"Still? Is she maybe mad that I was ignoring her?"
Minho said next, he too feeling confused.

"You think mom would get mad 'cause you didn't pick up the phone at her?"
"You're right, she wouldn't. Then what?"
Felix thought for some time, looking at the back of his brother's leather car seat.
Before he got his phone out, sending a quick message.
"What are you doing?"
"I'm sending a message to your dad"

Message to: Mr Hwang

We couldn't finish our talk earlier, I apologise.

No need, is everything fine with you?

We are good, don't worry.
Sir, I know this shouldn't be over text
But I don't have time.
Can you tell me who gave you the paperwork?

Oh, right
It was /your mom/

What?

Yeah I figured you didn't know
But the day you went to get Hyunjin
She came to my office
Saying that you needed it so you can get the charts back, and I mean
It made some sense at the moment

I didn't send her
Nor did Hyung
She shouldn't be dealing with the company stuff.

Yeah, I know
Felix, be careful Yeah?

What does this mean?

Not necessarily anything
But just be careful
You never know who will stab you in the back, it can be anyone

Don't worry, I'm well aware of my surroundings.

"So? What did he say?"
Asked Minho after some time of Felix just looking at his phone screen.
The said boy looked up from the device to meet his brother's eyes.
Just now, realising the car came to a stop and that they were in front of Chan's house.
"It's her,"

Minho's eyebrows frowned deeper at the words.
Hyunjin made a confused sound from the back of his throat.
They both watched as Felix let out an airy chuckle before he sighed one more time and brushed his hair back.
"It's her, hyung, it's mom. She made Hyunjin's dad sign those papers"

"What?"

Before any of them could speak any further, they heard the main door being open, and it didn't need them much to see Chan's worried face.
"Hurry your ass inside!"

;

They walked inside a room, that Hyunjin thought it's Chan's living room.
Two steps in, and they can see a figure of a girl standing facing her back to the door and looking out of the window.
It was creepy.
But then, they heard a chuckle.
Before the girl's voice filled the room.
"I see the whole pack is here,"
The girl made one more chuckle before turning around to look at the four boys.
