chapter four





"i really love this kind of place..." taeyong said happily as he was going around the garden like a kid.


"i love taking care of those," jaehyun said calmly.


taeyong surprisingly looked at him, eyes were shining that suddenly made jaehyun's heart stop. his smile slowly disappeared as he felt different after seeing taeyong's doe eyes.


what the fuck is that, jung?


"can i go around first, jaehyun-ah?" he asked softly.


"go on," he nodded and smiled.


he clapped his hands and ran around the garden again, jaehyun let out a deep sigh and bit his cheeks inside. this is the first time he felt those again after the biggest heartbreak he had back then.


just no,


he can't fall in love again with a spoiled and brat human being.


"you know, people usually think i'm actually a brat and spoiled." taeyong said as the two of them slowly walked around.


"aren't you?" jaehyun asked.


"i mean, i am. but not that kind of really spoiled and brat, duh." his eyes rolled.


"your pride was too high to the point you don't care about others feelings just to reach your parent's expectations." jaehyun said calmly.


and taeyong wasn't surprised by it, he already expected it. that's why he was free to open up with him. he was just expecting that jaehyun might understand him.


as a person like him who always misunderstood, he still wishes that someone might understand him even once.


"it's hard to live like that though," taeyong said. "it's like, you just live to meet your parent's expectations."


"isn't it more hard if you also want to meet other people's expectations around you?" jaehyun asked.


"i don't even care about them, didn't you say that i don't care about others feelings just to meet my parent's expectations?" taeyong said, pouting.


"why don't you try to live like a normal one as long as you're still here?" the younger one asked.


but taeyong didn’t speak, he was still pouting and kicking those stones he was seeing. when he was about to kick the flowers, jaehyun immediately stopped him.


"you better not do that, even if i'm trying to be kind, i can kick your ass off here in my garden." jaehyun said.


"tss," taeyong hissed and rolled his eyes.


"this brat..." jaehyun whispered.


"can i really live here like a normal one?"


taeyong suddenly asked, which made jaehyun stop checking if his flowers were fine.


"yeah? i don't even own this place, so feel free." jaehyun said.


"eh? you literally own a garden here." the older one said, frowning.


"i do this a lot whenever i got—"


"boss jaehyun! we have a special visitor!" someone suddenly shouted.


which is just great timing because jaehyun almost said that he was getting a mission.


"special?" jaehyun asked in a low voice when he came closer to mark.


"your biggest heartbreak." he whispered.


jaehyun suddenly stopped because of it, he glanced at taeyong who's now kicking the rocks before to mark who is keeping shifting his gaze to jaehyun and taeyong.


"take care of him," jaehyun said before he left.


mark watched jaehyun leave before he shifted his gaze to taeyong who is also watching jaehyun leaving.


"hi, mr. human being! mark lee." he greeted, smiling.


taeyong looked at him from head to toe, so this must be the guy that they were saying haechan's boyfriend? well, he looks like haechan's type though.


or he was really the guy that haechan always described as his type in guy.


"taeyong lee," he greeted back. "are you really haechan's boyfriend?" he suddenly asked.


"yes, hyung." he smiled.


"how did you get my baby's attention?" his eyebrow raised.


"oh, looks like i'm not the first who called him baby." he pouted. "well, love sounds good though."


"answer my question!" taeyong hissed.


"he was the one who approached me," mark said. "and he's actually my type so i also get attached, we met in a club actually." he giggled.


"tss, how do people easily find their loved ones?" taeyong whispered.


"do you want one, hyung? i know someone." mark said, giggling.


"you do?" his eyes suddenly bright.


"yes," he nodded.


"who is it?" taeyong asked.


"my one and only boss jung jaehyun— aaa! i'm just kidding!"


jaehyun and johnny who is seriously discussing something about someone where she could stay for a while, they got interrupted when mark just passed by, shouting while running.


followed by taeyong who is eager to get him.


"what happened to the two?" johnny asked when the two disappeared.


"who knows?" jaehyun asked and rolled his eyes.


"so, anyways. if we put selena in taeyong's current room, taeyong had to stay together with ten." johnny continued. "and that would be loud, the two can't even get along."


"it's just because both of them have the same attitude." jaehyun said.


"and we're the only ones who can bear it." johnny said.


"hell no?" jaehyun immediately denied. "i don't bear taeyong's attitude." his eyes rolled.


"talk to my hand, prince jung." johnny said, smirking.


"fuck off." he hissed.


the girl named selena is jaehyun's ex-girlfriend, his first biggest heartbreak. her parents were close to jaehyun's parents that's why the two met, they fell in love and selena's attitude is just the same like taeyong.


that's why jaehyun was already used to taking care of someone who is spoiled and brat, but that became one of his hate when they broke up.


selena cheated on him, and now, she's chasing after him. trying her best to get jaehyun back, probably because she wants to be a queen after finding out that jaehyun is placing his father's throne sooner.


did she forget that jaehyun can read minds? poor her, he can't fool jaehyun now. even if he can't read mind, he won't really let selena fool him again.


"you're really enjoying my garden, aren't you?" jaehyun asked as he saw taeyong laying on the ground.


"can't i?!" taeyong hissed and rolled his eyes.


"why are you even running together with mark?" the younger one asked, sitting beside him.


"he was teasing me, that kid." he hissed. "he really makes my blood boil and i don't know why."


"lol, you're happy because at least you know that donghyuck has someone now to take care of him." jaehyun said and let out a chuckle.


"tss, why can't i lie to you?!" taeyong hissed and softly hit his arm.


"you can't do that to someone who is gifted," he smirked.


"how i wish i was also gifted," he pouted. "can i also have your powers?" and taeyong faced him.


"wait, can even humans get neos powers?" he added.


"yes," jaehyun nodded, hugging his knees. "that's also one of the reasons why the neo universe population increased, when neos fell in love with humans and made love with them. sperm is the way that humans inherited the neos powers."


"woah..." he gasped. "what if there's a neo person who is a playboy and fuck—"


"they can just pass their powers to one person," jaehyun immediately cut him off.


"so, for example. you inherited your powers from someone but unfortunately, you two broke up. does that mean, you can't pass your powers anymore if you ever fall in love again?" he frowned.


"yeah," jaehyun nodded.


"hmm..." he nodded. "what if i find someone here who can read minds since that's the ability i want?"


jaehyun surprisingly looked at him which made taeyong laugh because of his reaction. he was not actually kidding when he said that reading minds is the ability he wants.


he wants to read people's minds.


"by the way, remember what i said that you can't go far away. especially to the forest at the end." jaehyun said.


"as if i also want to go there, forests are actually scary." he rolled his eyes.


"did i already say that there's someone living here in my garden and people don't actually see him?"


he immediately holds his laugh back when taeyong gets up and comes closer to him, he even almost hugs jaehyun.


"don't fucking scare me!" he hissed.


"she was wearing a white dress, has a lot of—"


"jaehyun!" he shouted and hit his chest. he was now hugging jaehyun, having his eyes closed.


but jaehyun was enjoying it, he kept laughing.


"i hate your garden now." taeyong hissed, but still couldn't remove his arm to jaehyun's.


"i'm just kidding, don't worry." he giggled and brushed his hair.
