Chapter 23 - Sleep Texter

Guanlin's POV

I throw my phone onto my bed, a little too aggressively. She won't even f*cking talk to me anymore, what the hell is going on?

Did I make a mistake? I think about my decision of breaking up with Haeun, and now... I think I regret it.

I put my entire future on the line to be with Mina, and she can't even answer a text within several days, in the middle of summer?

I think back to when I didn't know her identity and even then, after the initial conversation she started, I was always the one begging for her to come back, I was the one waiting for responses and hoping she'd be forgiving enough to talk to me again. But why?

Was it stupid of me to fall for someone that quick? Someone I hardly even know?

"Yo, man! What's up? I didn't think you'd ask me over again after I stole your girl," he says while nudging my arm.

"Shut up, Seonho. Your voice gives me headaches."

"Woah. Why'd you invite me here if you're stuck in bitch land?"

I realize I'm being immature and taking my frustrations out on the wrong person. I sigh. "I'm sorry man. Honestly, I asked you to come because I need someone to vent to."

"Oh!" He wraps his arm around my shoulder. "I'm perfect for that!"

I laugh at how patient he can be with me even when I'm acting out. "...It's about Mina."

His face suddenly drops into a frown, and he withdraws his arm. "Guanlin... are you into my girlfriend?"

Mina's POV

After a long day of helping my mother prepare for guests, I finally get a moment alone. I take out my phone excitedly and text Guanlin.

I wonder if he's annoyed that I took so long...

I shake my head. Nah, he's always so patient with me.

I bite the inside of my cheek. I can't say I'm not disappointed. It's been a while since I could properly text anyone because of everything that's been going on and he's busy... the person I want to talk to most. Shoot.

So I hold off all the questions I had and text Seonho, instead.

Guanlin's POV

"You're not trying to cozy up to my girlfriend, are you?" He narrows his eyes. "Because we had an agreement about that."

"What?! I'm the one that f*cking told you to back off, and you still went on flirting with her and everything!"

"You never told me! We were at that party when you said something about an agreement but I had no idea what the hell you were taking about!"

"Stop playing dumb, I texted it to you and you agreed. I have damn proof." I take out my phone and scroll down to Seonho's number.

"Huh. I don't recall being a sleep-texter," he says mockingly. "This never happened Guanlin, admit it and maybe I'll think about giving up on Mina."

"No!" I purse my lips while going back through our texts. As I'm scrolling, messages appear from a number I don't particularly need to see right now. Seonho reaches over and looks at my screen, and I pull back.

"You are texting her! Stop being greedy!"

"I'm not! She just did it right now..." I quickly tell her I'm busy and go back to searching for the day I told Seonho about Mina.

After a good minute, I come across the texts in question and yell out, "Yes! F*ck you, Seonho. What the hell is this?"

He gives me a dirty look before checking and widening his eyes. "H-holy shit. Do I really text in my sleep?" He examines the entire screen and takes out his own phone. "This is impossible..." I wait for him to match the date to the one I have, and he swipes back and forth, over and over again.

"What are you doing, idiot? I win."

"Wait... it's not here for me..." As I'm about to slap him, he turns his screen, and my lips part slightly. He was right...

His conversation with me cuts off before I got to confessing. The hell?

I take his phone in my hands and do exactly what he was just doing, swiping up and down, over and over again. I try forming a sentence but nothing intelligible comes out, until, "You deleted them."

"I did not! I swear!" He puts his hand on his heart. "I'd never lie to you!"

"Fine. What were you doing this day?"

He scratches the back of his head and looks down. "Hmm... I remember we were talking about a math test or something and...you kept asking me questions while I was out with my friends."

I bite lip, remembering who he went out with that day. "Which friends...?"

"It was Jihoon and Daniel, and then that Haeun snake joined us later."

He pauses for a second, then his jaw drops and the realization becomes evident on his face.

"It was Haeun."

Haeun's POV

"Daddy!" I call out as soon as I get home, stepping into his office without knocking.

"Yes, honey?"

"Remember when you told me that you'd ruin anyone that tried to wrong me?"

He laughs, which I think is a little bit unfitting because I wouldn't call someone disrespecting me a laughing matter. "I did say that, didn't I?"

"Uh huh." I nod cutely. I pose in the most irresistible way possible, hands tied behind my back, lips pouted, and all.

"Well, I need to call in that favor now."
