Sincerity

"I think Joon-hyuk doesn't like me," I repeated the topic of cousin Gong as we walked to the control room.

-I'll tell you the truth about him, but you mustn't tell anyone, he said sharply.

-Sure, I won't tell anyone - I promised and waited for the man's answer.

-Joon-hyuk is younger than me and In-ho as you know and when he was 16 and your husband and I were 24 and 25 my cousin had a huge crush on In-ho. He said it was nothing but I knew he was lying. Later, 10 years when he found out that In-ho had another girlfriend after his wife died he got incredibly angry and then he cut himself off until In-ho asked him to help with games this year and he didn't know you would be too that's why he's so cold.

-That's why he's so dumb to me because I'm with him? I thought he wanted to take everything away from In-ho and I was getting in his way - I said, embarrassed.

-That's right, but don't say you know because it's a difficult topic to talk about him and his orientation - he replied anxiously and we entered the control room pretending that nothing had happened.

-Well, how long can we wait for you? -Joon-hyuk said, turning to face us with his arms folded across his chest.

-Sorry Joon-hyuk the phone rang from the living room and I answered and I had a hard conversation with some Vip who was threatening me-I said and lowered my head.

-Don't worry about them, I will deal with them and you will be safe. I heard that In-ho wants you to be close to the game room 3 so one of the security guards will put you there," said the Frontman's right hand and pointed to the guard with the triangle who was going to lead me to the room.

-Can you come with me please? I need to talk to you, I said to Joon-hyuk, who clearly didn't expect this turn of events.

"I pointed to the guard, but okay," he said, and we both left the control room, heading to the third game room.

-Why don't you like me? -I asked straight away, looking at the man.

-Who said I don't like you, hm? -he answered question after question, shaking me out of my self-confidence.

-I'm serious Joon-hyuk 4 days ago it was even great but since In-ho went to play you talk bad about me to Gong and ignore me.

-I'm not ignoring you and I really like you but you've probably heard that ehhh I had a crush on In-ho when I was a teenager - he said and I looked away so he wouldn't notice that I already knew everything.

-Really? I didn't know...- I played dumb but he didn't fall for my lie.

-Don't lie to me blondie because Gong probably told you but I gave up on your husband a long time ago. I was kind of mad that he got married again but that's life and I'm happy being single and besides I don't have time for relationships - he said and we stopped at the big wooden door - This is it. The guards know about you and I'll watch over you but hide behind one of the posts and don't lean out from behind it so no one recognizes you. In-ho will come to you when there are 4 players in the room you'll have about 20 minutes and don't whine too loud so no one notices - he said and winked at me opening the door where he disappeared a moment later.

I looked at my husband as he stood in his group with this chick who was pregnant. From the expression on his face I understood that he was asking her if everything was okay and she probably said yes and again she had those gooey eyes looking at him. If it wasn't for the fact that there were other people and guards around I would have gladly taken the gun from under my coat and shot her. The carousel continued to spin with funny music to which Thanos danced with his new friend until a female voice said the number "4", meaning I would be seeing In-ho in a moment.
