9.Much Ado about Nothing
Taehyung's P.O.V.
I was so happy today. I sit with my crush, drank coffee with him, spent time. Woohoo. What a day. Enjoying these things I was walking to my department. Then the thought of Zhan came to my mind. He sounded sad. I knew when I heard his voice... he was not probably physically hurt but he was mentally... definitely. But one thing made me suspicious. He sounded so good like the stars were showering from his voice, but then suddenly the phone fell and after that when I heard his voice ,it wasn't the same. He sounded gloomy. I need to find out the truth. Yes, and I need to find it soon if not today. Gathering my hopes and courage, I brushed it off then went to changing room to wear my apron.
I wore my apron and then went to my departmental lab to talk to professor. When I was walking in the corridor on my way to lab , I could easily hear the faint gasps and unrecognizable whispers and all the stares on me. Seriously! Why does it have to happen all the time? Even when I was abroad and now in here. I kept the stoic face and then went to professors.
"Professor Wang, may I come in?"
"Oh Kim Taehyung, yeah come in come in."
"Yes sir. As you have said I already prepared the papers that was supposed to ... Dad?"
"Hey son, what's up? Didn't expect me to be here huh?"
"Obviously not. What brings you here dad? "
"Oh nothing... I just came to see you. "
"I know you didn't come here to see me. Tsk tsk."
"Hahaha, yeah yeah. Actually I came to meet Mrs.Keats. And after our meeting as I had time in my hand, so I thought why not meet Mr.Wang? Right Professor?"
" Yes yes. Obviously. After all who can ever forget those college days, Kim Hyung sik? Haha I can still remember how you chased Tae's mom... after all she was your first love. Hahaha"
"Ahem... Wang Xiubo, can you not tell about those days in front of my son? He's still my kid." Dad said while blushing.
"Aish... stop it dad. And uncle wang haha please tell me more when you have time... I would like to hear more of it." I winked and professor Wang whom I just called as uncle Wang ,hit my back while laughing loudly.
"So Kim, since your boy came from abroad and my nephew came too, why don't we have dinner together? It will be nice and my nephew is already admitted to this university so if Tae meets him... he will feel more relaxed about new environment. "
"Oh umm sure sure... that will be really nice. I wish our Xiao Qiang would be here..." reminiscing about the bitter past, dad suddenly felt gloomy.
"I miss him too much. Haaahhhh *sigh* it's already been three years that our Dr. Xiao left us. I miss my best buddy. Hey by the way, why don't we invite Zhan and Bubble too? That will be really nice."
"That will be perfect." I knew Zhan was sad so I found the perfect opportunity to grab in.
"So that's decided then. Tae make sure Zhan and Bubble join us. Finally we meet again. " Dad said to which I nodded.
"Finally we meet again." Professor Wang said cheerfully.
"Okay, you guys go on. I will leave to check on the 1st years students."
"Look Kim, how grown up our Tae has become! Haha. Okay go and if any problem happens make sure to contact me." Professor said.
"Sure sir. Then I'll be leaving. Bye dad, bye professor."
"Bye son. I'll be leaving after some more chitchating haha."
I smiled and left these two buddies together. My dad, professor Wang, and Dr.Xiao were college mates. They were the best buddies in the world. My dad was from business management department while uncle Wang and uncle Xiao and my mom was from the medical department. My mom was my dad's first love... and my role model is my father. Hope I will have my first love by my side just like my dad forever.

Xiao Zhan's P.O.V.
The photo that Tae sent, made my heart drop. He was having coffee in the cafe with angel. Yes, I admit there was Wang Yibo and another guy too. But still... I'm so done now. Gather up , Zhan, gather up. Throwing the phone on the bed, I slumped my face on my pillow. I had no idea of time and then I heard a creaking sound on my door. Oh it's Bubble.
"Zhan ge... are you up? You are alright nah? Why didn't you turn on the lights? It's already dark outside. "
"Hey sweetie, yes I'm absolutely fine. I was just feeling down today. I'm perfectly fine. Come inside honey , tell me what brings you here? You need anything? "
"Umm no. Actually Tae ge called me. He was asking for you. He said he had been calling you for one hour but you weren't receiving so he decided to call me. And told me to inform you about this."
"Oh really? I didn't hear any calls... oh shoot yeah 15 missed calls! My phone gone silent so I didn't notice. Okay Bubble, I will call him back. No need to worry. Have you eaten?"
"No, I was waiting for you. Please eat something gege. You should not skip meals." Bubble said with somehow teary eyes. She is so sensitive. Especially about me.
"Aww, I'm so sorry my sister. Okay you prepare dinner I'll be coming after calling Tae." I said to her with a smile.
"Okay gege then I'll be preparing . Come soon."
After that she left, and I called Tae.
" Where the hell have you been brat? Do you know how tensed I was? You never care about me right ?" He yelled from the other side.
"Aiya... I'm so sorry. My phone was on a silent mode. I'm so sorry please don't mind. And stop yelling. "
"I will be quick. I don't wanna talk to you either." I knew that he had been pouting and sulking on the other side. And the thought of it made me giggle.
"Okay okay chill. Now what's the matter?"
"Today my father met Uncle Wang. They were planning to have a family dinner this weekend. And they told me to make sure you and Bubble come to Uncle Wang's house."
"Oh I see. Umm I've no problem but I got to ask Bubble if she already has any plans on that day or not."
"Okay after asking, make sure to call me."
"Okay chillax. Now stop sulking. I'm going for dinner. Bubble hasn't had her dinner yet. I gotta have too. Bye call ya later."
" Bye, send hugs and kisses to sister. "
"Haha, sure sure. Okay bye and good night."
Ending the call I went to dinner. I told Bubble about the dinner. And as she said she was free in the weekend and also was bored at home, so it's a perfect opportunity to have a fresh air. I was also glad as this dinner will divert my mind a bit from not having my angel. Hmmmm hope I will be able to forget him...
At the following weekend in Wang mansion....
3rd person's P.O.V.
At the very day, both Kim family and Xiao family came to have dinner in Wang mansion.
They were all well dressed and Tae ,Xing Fei and Zhan was talking between themselves. Professor Wang came and greeted them warmly.
"Oh my my. Bubble you grew up so pretty dear. How are you?"
"Oh I'm doing good Uncle. Thanks for asking. How are you? Hope you are doing well."
"Yeah yeah. I'm doing well. And Zhan I heard you topped again in the last semester. Well done my boy."
"Thanks uncle. I'm trying to improve more."
"Sure sure. And Tae we already talked haha. But today I will tell you guys some funny stories about Tae when he was a child." Telling that Xiubo laughed loudly.
"Whaaaa... don't even think about that uncle. That won't be very good topic to discuss. " Tae said pouting.
At that sight everyone bursted into laughter.
"Okay since you guys are already here, Let me introduce my sister's son with you all, he had been in France for these years and finally came back in Korea. Ms.Zhao please tell Bobo to come downstairs and say that the guests already came."
"Okay master, I will be telling young master to come downstairs. " She bowed and left to call Bobo.
They were constantly chatting while having snacks and soft drinks. Suddenly Xiubo said, "Oh here comes my nephew, Zhan , Tae, Bubble ... meet my nephew, Wang Yibo, he's around your age and also studies in Keats university. Bobo go say hello to them."
At that speech, everyone turned following his voice, everyone was glad to meet the handsome young man while Tae was surprised then smiled , Bubble smiled warmly, and apart from everyone Xiao Zhan gasped. Unnoticed by everyone two voices said the same word, at the same time:
Angel?
