Chapter 17 : Cohabitation.

Third person point of view

Once they were done with the dinner, Haruto sat down on the couch looking through his phone. Junkyu scratched his neck and was contemplating between going to his room and staying there. He finally walked and sat on the couch. " Do you like the food ? " Haruto asked looking up from his phone.

Junkyu nodded. " Yeah. It is nice ". Haruto nodded. " That's fine then. But if you like or don't like anything or want it in a particular way, you can let them know. Don't hesitate ". Junkyu nodded. " How do you like the house ? " " It is nice. It isn't overly big is it ? " " Why ? " " I don't want to get lost ". Haruto laughed.

" Don't worry. There will be people going around the house most of the time. They will help you. Even if you do, if you keep walking you might find your way again ". Haruto assured him. " Ah... that's fine then ". Haruto smiled. " How many days is your break ? " " It is over ". Haruto's eyebrows shot up.

" It was only two days and today is the second day ". Haruto nodded. " What are you doing tomorrow ? " " I will be going to the audition venue and meet the cast and crew for the drama ". Haruto nodded. " Alright ". " I will go sleep. I don't want to have a puffy face ". Haruto nodded and smiled. " Good night ". Junkyu smiled.

" Good night ". He got up and walked to his room. He fell on the bed. He thought about his day. It didn't feel that bad to stay there. It is not like anyone would investigate too deep into how they are at home. So they were just going to stay in the same house is all... ? He sighed and turned on his side. He closed his eyes and fell asleep.

The next morning Junkyu woke up and finished his routine. He dressed up in jeans and hoodie. He styled his hair and walked out. He went down and walked to the table. He felt familiar after all the walking around he did yesterday. He saw Ji Ho setting the dishes. " Good morning ". Junkyu greeted with a smile.

She turned to him with a smile. " Good morning ". " Aunty, I will leave in a few minutes and I don't think I will come for lunch ". Ji ho stopped and turned to him. " What do you mean leave ? Sit down and have breakfast first ". " It is- " She cut him off. " I don't want young master to scold me. So please have it ".

She said making him sit on the chair. Junkyu was confused. " What do you mean ? " " He informed me to make sure that you have breakfast before you leave ". Junkyu blinked. " Haruto did ? " She nodded and served it to him. Junkyu didn't object and ate it. When he was almost done a man in suit came up to him. " Sir, your assistant has arrived ".

Junkyu nodded. He finished quickly. " Thanks for the food. Also I forgot to tell that your cooking is really tasty aunty. It reminds me of my mom's ". " Really ? " Junkyu nodded. Ji Ho smiled. " I am happy you like it ". " I will be going ". " Be careful ". He waved and left. He got in the car and Jihoon drove out of there.

" Wow. Look at that house. It is really big. You are really lucky ". Junkyu chuckled. " It is just temporary. But it is so nice to be that rich ". Jihoon wiggled his eyebrows. " Well.... About it being temporary, let's see ". Junkyu sneered. " See, my foot. Now drive properly ". Jihoon didn't say anything more and drove to the venue.

It was a 5 star hotel. Junkyu went in from the parking lot and escaped the reporters. He went in and greeted all of them; the staff and also all of his co actors. There were some auditions happening too. Junkyu sat with the director and the producer in a room allocated for them. They were discussing about things related to the drama.

Junkyu stepped out of the room to take a phone call from Hyunsuk. He was speaking when some bodyguards walked in. Junkyu was curious as to who it might be. He turned to see the person in between the body guards. His eyes went wide. It was Haruto. Haruto saw Junkyu on the side and winked with a smile.

But it vanished just as quickly and he walked away. Junkyu blinked and was frozen. He came back to his senses when Hyunsuk was screaming his name through the phone. He apologized and said it was nothing. Once he was done, he walked into the room again. He saw the director and producer were excited and also a little anxious.

" Did something happen ? " Junkyu asked sitting down. " Our CEO visited today. I never saw him go out to look at things. It is the first time I saw him come out personally. I wonder if there is anything special ". Junkyu didn't know how to respond to that. " Oh ". Someone knocked on the door. They all turned to it. The director spoke up. " Come in ".

They saw a lady from the staff walk in with a bouquet of roses. " What is it ? " " It was asked to deliver to Mr. Kim Junkyu ". Junkyu pointed at himself. " Me ? " She walked in giving the bouquet to him and left. Junkyu took it and it was really pretty. There was a small card in it. He took it out and was shocked.

It read ' All the best for today. Don't work too hard. Fighting ! ' He could say it was definitely handwritten. But that was not the factor for his shock. He closed the card and saw the name at the back. It read ' From Haruto ' in the same handwriting. He coughed a little and put it away blinking continuously. He looked up at them.

He smiled at the other two in the room. " Who is it from ? It looks really pretty ". The producer asked. Junkyu choked a little. " A-ah.. this is from a fan ". He smiled. They both nodded and then continued their discussion. That was a safe answer, because it is common for fans to send things to the actors they like. Junkyu let out a silent sigh in relief.
