"You can meet me whenever, sweety." A small smile bloomed on his face with his cheeky reply.
The other person snorted scandalously. "We are gonna be like this, then?" The question came as disbelief, but Hyuk knew, they were as amused as him, right now.
"How far is the work done?" Just like that, he smoothly diverted the topic schooling his voice to be more stern and shifted into work mode.
"Smooth b*stard, " the not so quiet beautiful words mumbled, made him laugh.
As he continued the conversation, Wang Hyuk entered the elevator and pressed the button, listening to static from the other side and wondering progress in work and possibility of anything going wrong.
"Work's done. All clear. They were escorted respectfully." The voice spoke with mirth oozing out.
Hyuk smiled, of course the work would be done, "Good work, Raven."
"Its my duty, Sir Wang," they shared a laugh and silence settled over the conversation. Hyuk thought its time to give himself some rest.
He was about to drop the call when a loud gasp from other side of the call. His mouth stayed opened with unspoken words. Hyuk panicked a bit, not knowing what happened suddenly.
"Oh my god, what's this? How did this happen?" Raven's voice came out bewildered and absolutely shook.
"What happened?" Hyuk asked, trying to guess at the same time.
"You are finally down with someone?" The other person in phone exclaimed, still in disbelief.
What? Hyuk questioned in his mind. "What the hell are you talking about?" He spoke out his confusion.
"The same thing entire business world is talking, gossiping about right now " Raven continued.
Now, Hyuk is clearly annoyed. "Just get to the goddam* point, " he sighed out, while rubbing his head. He should've expected for it to increase, when he lifted the call in first place.
"Did Mr. Wang Hyuk just announced to be back in the country, and get himself a girlfriend? Is he having an affair with someone else's fiancé?" Raven read out, as if he was a news reporter, but with a more obnoxious tone.
" Did you just penetrate into my old man's hotel? " Hyuk asked, though he is sure about it, understanding Raven just hacked into the Haven's cameras.
A knowing mischievous laugh rang through the call. " I can even penetrate into your heart, so why can't I penetrate into that old hawk's hotel? " Raven questioned back.
Hyuk never questioned Raven's abilities. But he never expected him to be so interested about him, to the point that he is even being a match maker in between them, which he confirmed in later conversation.
" Kissing twice on first encounter. At this rate I won't be receiving a bachelor party but a child welcoming ceremony. " Raven finely let out, without hiding anything.
Hyun raised his eyes at what came from the other side of the phone, "Aren't you going ahead of yourself? Thinking and poking too much in unknown territory, '' He pointed out, in an attempt to tell the other party to hang on instead of letting their thoughts drift to clouds.
" Ayy~~~ But I can't see you rejecting the idea. I didn't know you had a romantic side of that poker face. I can't wait to meet this lady in person. Lemme meet the vixen who made you fall in her trap, " Raven spoke, surely thinking Sooha set a trap to get Hyuk's attention, mistaking everything.
Hyuk just rolled his eyes. "You don't know what happened, Rav".
"Of course I know," raven spoke out, the voice offensive.
"No, you don't" Hyuk replied, as defensive.
"Then, explain, b*tch." Raven hissed out.
Hyuk knew he upset the other person. Raven didn't like things covered. A curious and vicious cat, who'd go to any lengths to satisfy his needs, is what Raven is.
"Later. I'm tired." He sighed out, while leaning his back on the elevator's wall.
A beat of silence followed and he thought, Raven left the topic. However, that's not what happened.
"I think you should go with this one, dude. " Raven commented, thinking it's finally time for Hyuk to find a partner and settle down.
" This girl. I have always liked her dominance exuding aura. By your side, I'm sure her presence will only enhance your stature. And I can sense your interest sitting here," Raven spoke out. One could hear from his voice, how confirmed he is about what he is speaking.
Ding~ lift doors opened. Hyuk simply came out and continued the convo at the hallway.
Hyuk furrowed his brows. Why does it feel like Raven is forcing him to find someone already? Could it be that he is bored enough with the family drama and now wants another source of entertainment, so making him his target?
Letting out a scoff, Hyuk's reply followed, " Aren't you talking too much about a girl whom I just met? "He spoke, clearly not understanding why Raven is so interested in his personal life. or maybe he is not interested in Hyuk but Sooha?
"You don't want me to? " Raven let out the fact on face, clearly knowing Hyuk sure liked to talk about the girl. Of course it must be it, otherwise this dam* call should have ended long ago.
Trying to tease Hyuk, Raven words flowed, " Ok then, don't object me when I approach her. A person gotta shoot their shot. And, its open prey, how can I not?" Raven let out a boisterous laugh, looking forward to future. He surely is gonna meet the vixen who enticed the devil incarnate.
Hyuk could perfectly imagine the wiggling eyebrows. There, the annoyance and heasache are back.
"As I said, you don't know sh*t." Hyuk's voice came out harsh, but got a laugh as response.
"I only wish for some action in your life, Mr. NRCI" Raven said, his voice annoyingly cheery.
"NRCI?" Hyuk questioned.
"Oh, I forgot you are a century old boomer" Raven cackled on the other end and Hyuk stayed silent. He will get back on this for the insult. Raven sighed and cleared his throat as is he was going to explain something very complicated.
"I wish for some action in you life, Mr. No relationships coz commitment issues." Raven's voice was followed by a scowl from Hyuk.
"That's called being careful" Hyuk hissed out.
"That's called being scaredy cat and not facing your sh*t." Raven talked with level tone. But, Hyuk was too offended and prideful to take those words seriously. "I hope you fall into a fu*king ditch and die, crazy m*therf**ker" He growled out.
"And I hope you fall in love~. Kiss, kiss Kiss hug~ hug~ on the dance floor~ --" Hyuk pressed the end call button before the sentence was finished. He could perfectly imagine the ugly loud laugh of the other person. Oh, how Raven will pay for this.
After ending the call, Hyuk entered the suite. As soon as he stepped inside the room, he took deep breaths to calm himself down. But, his eyebrows came together into a frown, noticing someone else presence in his room.
