Chapter 39: I Know
***Hoseok POV***
"What is your motive Hani? And what deal do you have going on with Yoongi Hyung?"
I watched as she opened her already moist eyes and it grew twice the size. She was clearly in shock and frighten. I have never seen or heard of any girl who is shaking this much in fear if she was willing to give up her body. This seems to be her first time. I suddenly felt like an asshole for making her so scared, but I needed answers.
I have known about their deal for a while now. Ever since that random phone call that I received from Yoongi Hyung.....
*Flashback to Chapter 17 - The Deal (Hoseok's POV)*
I was still over at Jungkook's place because the boy needed help with rearranging his apartment. Yoongi had ditched us since this morning to meet up with Hani, the girl that we met yesterday night.
I didn't even want to go to the club. I just wanted to go see Mi-Young, but she wasn't home. She was going to spend the night at her 2nd home with her friend that I've never met. So with nothing to do and Yoongi being so moody, I tagged along with him to help him clear off his mind last night.
I was carrying a box full of Jungkook's video games when my phone suddenly started ringing. I set the box down and looked at the ID and it was Yoongi Hyung who was calling me. I instantly picked up.
"What's up Hyung?"
There was no answer but instead, all I could hear was some rustling sound.
"Yoongi Hyung? Helloooo???"
Still nothing.
He must have butt dialed me or something. Hyung is too cute.
I was about to hang up but then I heard him on the other line.
'Don't bite your lip. It turns me on.'
"OHHHHH!!" I burst out laughing. I was laughing so hard that Jungkook ran out of his room towards me.
"What?!!! What is it?! Why are you laughing so loud?"
"Yoongi Hyung butt dialed me and I think he's picking up some girl tonight!" I laughed a bit more but tried not to laugh too loud just in case he hears me on the other end.
"I want to listen too!" The younger wailed and threw a small tantrum trying to get the phone from me.
"Yah! Go clean your room. You're too young to be hearing this," I scolded the maknae.
"Psshhh. Young my ass. Says the one who's only been with one girl his entire life."
"Shut up and go away," I told him.
He returns to his room and I listened on.
'You will come to see me whenever I call for you, no matter what time of the day or night. No questions asked.'
I giggled at Yoongi Hyung. I didn't know he had such a kinky and demanding side to him when it comes to girls.
'B-but..'
'No buts! You'll do as I say until you win Hoseok's heart completely. The moment Hoseok confesses to you that he likes you, our deal here will be over and done with and you'll never see me ever again.'
The smile that was plastered on my face instantly disappear. What deal were they talking about? And why the hell was I mentioned? Who is this girl Yoongi Hyung was talking to?
'Y-you'll help me though right?'
'Why would I help you? Hoseok is my friend. I just didn't want to reject this opportunity. You said you'll do 'anything.' I'm just simply taking you up on your offer. In return, I'll keep my mouth shut and no one will know of your plan.'
The only girl that Yoongi and I both would know is Mi-Young and that was definitely not Mi-Young's voice.
'Alright, Yoongi. I'll do it. But remember what you said, the moment Hoseok confesses that he likes me, you'll take this secret to your grave. We will never speak of this ever again. Deal?'
'Deal.'
I wanted to hang up. I didn't want to listen on anymore but for some reason, I just couldn't bring myself to end the call. I listen on as there were more rustling and shuffling noises.
There seemed to be a third person that soon entered their conversation. Another male voice that I did not recognize. I couldn't catch most of what they were saying after that but then, I finally heard her name.
'Hani and I were just about to leave.'
Hani? The same Kim Hani from last night? The one who gave me her number even though she knows I'm soon to be wed? I thought Yoongi had just met her last night? How did she brainwash Yoongi Hyung to make this kind of deal with her? Does Hyung like her?
There were so many questions going on in my head and I needed to find out. I finally ended the call and yelled out to the Maknae.
"Kookie-ah, I'm gonna head out now. Something just came up," I put on my shoes while Jungkook shouted out from his room.
"Okay, Hoseok Hyung. Thanks for all the help tonight. I'm kinda busy right now so I won't see you to the door. Good night Hyung."
"Night Kookie."
And I rushed out of Jungkook's apartment and made my way to Yoongi's place.
When I reached his apartment, I rung the doorbell crazily, even though I don't think he would be home yet. I waited and he didn't come to the door. I turned so that my back was against his door before sliding down the door on to the ground. I need to find out why those two made a deal that involves me.
I don't think Yoongi Hyung will tell me anything so I will have to get close to Hani to know her intention. I called Jungkook and got Hani's phone number from him. And then I called Yoongi Hyung to see when he would get home.
*Flashback to Chapter 23 - No Turning Back* (Hoseok POV)
I didn't want to hear any more nagging from Jungkook so I finally took him to the Mall.
When we entered the music store, I saw Mi-Young and my heart flutter crazily as I made my way towards her. I didn't even notice the person next to her until Jungkook pointed him out. I couldn't help but feel a bit jealous. Why was Mi-Young together with this guy?
Jungkook asked him and turns out he wasn't a boy but was Hani. I was shocked to find out that she knew Mi-Young too. She looked totally different from when we saw her at the club. I asked Mi-Young how they knew each other and found out Hani was Mi-Young's best friend from school.
Why would she want me to like her when she is best friend with Mi-Young then? I tried to understand the conversation that I had heard between her and Yoongi Hyung, but I couldn't.
After Hani left, I secretly sent her a text to test her. To see if she was still willing to meet up with me even after finding out that my fiancée was Mi-Young.
When she texted me back agreeing to meet up tonight at the hotel, I knew then she had a motive, and I was going to do whatever to find it out.
************
*Present Time*
My eyes instantly widen at his question.
"W-what are y-you talking about?" My voice was trembling. I was scared and my eyes were full of tears. There's no way Hoseok would know. Yoongi wouldn't have told him.
"I know about your deal with Yoongi Hyung. I just don't know the exact detail and why it involves me. I heard your conversation with Yoongi Hyung. He had accidentally called me and I heard everything."
My tears poured down my face. I couldn't do it anymore. I had been caught. I covered my face and let out an ugly sob underneath Hoseok. He got up and sat down next to me.
"Cry as much as you want. I can wait until you calm down to hear your explanation."
After about a good 10-15 mins, I finally calmed down a bit. I finally sat up. I couldn't face Hoseok. I felt so humiliated and ashamed of myself. My eyes were fixed on the ground.
"Hani, I'm sorry for scaring you. I would never take advantage of you like that. I just needed to know."
Why is he apologizing to me? If anything I'm the one who needs to apologize to him. How could such a great guy like Hoseok even exist?
I finally looked up to meet his eyes and a smile was returned to me on his angelic face.
How could I have thought of such an evil plan like seducing someone like him?
I broke down again at the sweet man in front of me.
"Hoseok Oppa, I'm so sorry...."
He held me in his arms and comforted me.
"Don't cry. Will you tell me about your deal with Yoongi Hyung? It's no use asking him because I know he won't tell me. Why did you agree to meet me here knowing that I'm engaged to Mi-Young? Do you really like me?"
I can't lie my way out anymore. I decided to let Hoseok know about everything with hopes that he'll understand my intention and maybe he'll let Mi-Young go.
"I'm sorry Oppa. It's a long story."
"We've got all night don't we?"
I told him everything, but left out the part about Yoongi Oppa loving him. I told him about how much I loved Hyung, how Mi-Young liked Hyung, and how she came crying to me telling me she doesn't want to marry Hoseok. I could see the hurt in his eyes. But he didn't utter a word and listened on.
I continued on to how Yoongi Oppa got involved and how he pretended to be my boyfriend, how I hurt Hyung and that he left me, and why I agreed to meet Hoseok Oppa tonight.
"I'm so sorry Hoseok Oppa. I wanted you to like me and break off the wedding with Mi-Young so she could be free. I thought that if maybe I could make you like me, leaving Mi-Young wouldn't be painful for you...."
I could feel new tears falling down my face as I apologized over and over to Hoseok, but he didn't get mad at me. Instead, he wiped my tears away. I stared back at the angel in front of me. How could he be comforting me right now? He should be angry with me. He should yelling and be screaming at me. Why isn't he mad?
"Hani.."
He finally spoke after I finished telling my long story.
"I thought she was as happy as I was about being in love, but I guess I was the only one who ever loved her. Don't worry and I'll break off the engagement between us. I love Mi-Young, but if she is not happy with me... then I'm willing to let her go."
It was Hoseok Oppa's turn to cry. Now, I was the one who comforted him. I hugged him as he cried into my shoulder.
He calmed down and thanked me. We sat in silence after our long and understanding talk for a while. It was a nice and comforting silence. He looked at his watch and got up from the bed and held out his hand to me.
"It's already 1 in the morning. I'll take you home. I found out what I wanted to know and I'm glad you told me Hani."
I grabbed his hand and he smiled at me before he pulled me up from the bed. We walked towards the door and when Hoseok Oppa opened the door, both our faces were filled with horror.
"You're not a two-timer huh? What a fucken joke..."
And she slapped me hard across the face before running away from the hotel room in tears.
