Yeosang should have known better than to respond to his parents’ calls. A small, vulnerable part couldn’t help himself from worrying when his mother’s tone seemed urgent, nearly pleading for him to take over a certain meeting that she said was for business. Little did he know what said meeting actually was.
How come he couldn’t figure it out earlier?
Even though he had moved out of his parents’ house, it felt as if their control over him was stronger than ever. Perhaps he shouldn’t be so easy to contact, nor should he follow along to their every plead, considering the fact that they cut him off financially, but he was in the restaurant already.
For a blind date, not for a business meeting.
Neither of them seemed interested, honestly. And at this point, Yeosang was too exhausted and mentally drained to properly channel his host persona into the situation, so the frown had been etched onto his expression the moment he took a seat. Besides, with how disinterested the other was, he could only pose one question.
“Then, why the hell are you even still here?”
The question came out harsher than he intended it to be, tired from the entire ordeal and wanting nothing more than to go back home.
