"I understood that you were important to my Hyung. I am practically a stranger to you, but you are still taking care of me for him. I know you will not ask for any help from me with my state. I am the one who requires help here. But if there is something I can do, please let me know." Young Jae finally mustered the courage to say what was going on in his mind.
Young Jae held his breath and wondered would Wang Min Jun belittle his concern and words like Ki Hoon Joo, his so-called ex-boyfriend always did. His scum of ex never shared anything with him—neither good news nor his troubles. Young Jae practically never got any answer to anything personal about his ex. There was a vast distance created between them by his ex irrespective of Young Jae tried his best to be understanding. But without a second thought, Hoon Joo stole his work only to kick him in the crib and threaten him.
The response he received from Min Jun knocked the air out of him. The strange sensation spread through in him, made his heart feel something new that he never felt.
A low chuckle and a ruffle on the hair froze Young Jae like a spell was cast on him. He involuntarily let out a shaky-shuddered breathe.
Even though Min Jun noticed Young Jae's expression changing from concern to worry and then to panic only to freeze, he didn't comment on it. Young Jae amused him for sure. The older man who carried numerous scars and wound tried not to wear his emotions on the sleeve. But he showed it on his face but body language betraying him. Especially the plumb lip and the lean-bony jaw clenching and unclenching because of pressure.
Min Jun couldn't help but wished to see Young Jae with chubby cheeks and a healthy, elegant jawline. It seems like that wish would never become a reality anytime soon. That time he didn't know that Min Jun would take it up his mission to fatten Young Jae up in few years.
Min Jun promised himself not to get attached to anyone, and he couldn't help but be drawn towards Young Jae. He couldn't help but chuckle at the little Tokki who he was desperately attempting to hide his emotions but concerned about the stranger's problem just because his cousin cared for someone who was stranger to him. Min Jun ruffled the hair affectionately.
"Then I will tell you what is worrying me after I feed you dinner?" Min Jun said honestly. He knew he could really use an ear to vent his dilemma. If he received suggestions that could help, it would be a bonus. Even though this matter might create a bad impression about him but isn't it better, to be honest about self? Honesty and acceptance always lead to a strong-true bond. At the same time, it would also help in letting go of the shallow relationship.
'If he can't accept my true self, wouldn't it be easy to let go of the crush I developed on him in a short time? Like not even in a day' With a determined thought, Min Jun made a plan to talk after dinner.
