Arranged Marriage { Yeongyu / Beomjun }

Chapter 40:🍓

3rd Person's POV

"Hey… Younghoon, you've been staring at me for about an hour. I'm starting to get scared." Yeonjun said in a monotonous tone as he stared blankly at his coffee.

Younghoon was suddenly taken aback and slapped himself with his hands. When he felt the pain he immediately whimpered. Yeonjun, on the other hand, clicked his tongue because of the stupidity he witnessed.

"Heh… what kind of stupidity is that?" He asked again in a monotonous tone, as if he were a robot when he's speaking.

"Yeonjun… I have something to confess to you, I hope you listen carefully and don't be surprised." Younghoon said shyly to him, one of his eyebrows rose as he frowned.

"Haa… you're going to confess your undying love for me?" Yeonjun asked him while yawning.

"Not that!" Younghoon shouted, causing other people in the coffee shop to look in their direction.

"It's okay Younghoon, I know I'm a sinful man after all." Yeonjun said as he combed his hair with his hand backwards. Younghoon just deadpan at him and drank his coffee.

"Can we set aside the topic about your good looking face? And let's prioritize what I want to confess to you first? Please?" Younghoon desperately pleaded with him. Yeonjun snorted at him.

"All right, just say it." He said in an uninterested tone.

"I met someone about 5 days ago. Beautiful and angelic…" Younghoon started nervously. Yeonjun listened somehow.

"It's not about being a cheesy or hopeless romantic person… but I feel like the world has stopped spinning and the time also stopped when our eyes met. My heart is beating so fast I can feel it. But bro, the problem is… he's a man." The last lines he uttered sounded sad. Yeonjun felt it, he stared at his friend.

"And you know that my parents don't want their son to be gay." Younghoon's eyes were sad. Yeonjun remembers Beomgyu, his eyes are also sad when he insults him about his sexuality.

'Is this the feeling of sympathy?' Yeonjun asked himself. The emotion that was just new to him. He had never felt it before.

"Yeonjun, tell me… what should I do?" Yeonjun took the cup of his coffee and sipped it.

"You know, I don't know how to give advise. I don't even know how to express how I really feel." He paused for a moment and then looked outside.

"But, it's up to you. What you will follow, if you will follow your feelings for the man you met 5 days ago or if you would rather be a perfect son in the eyes of your parents." He took his cup of coffee and sipped it again.

"I don't want to disappoint them. So maybe, I'll just put aside how I feel for beauty..." Younghoon said as he bit the nail of his index finger.

"I don't judge your parents, because mostly of parents want the best for their children." Yeonjun sighed before speaking.
"Sometimes, they just don't really understand us…"

"I want to be close to beauty." Younghoon said, Yeonjun smiled at him and then pat his head.

"It's not bad if you want to make friends with your crush. And at least… you can let him know how much you love him and he's not alone because you are by his side, even though he's not yours... argh!!! is there no ramyeon here?!" Yeonjun suddenly shouted as he looked at the menu. Younghoon laughed out loud, the people around them glared in their direction.

"Why are you looking for ramyeon here at the coffee shop?" Younghoon asked him while laughing.

"Ah… I forgot we were in the coffee shop." He covered his hands with his face, he felt embarrassed.
