The Concept Game, Volume #2

[iSuspect Something At iHop] || San

You on the other hand, were quiet as you looked at the waiter's face. They looked guility as they pointed where San and your so called best friend were sitting. You followed their finger as you saw them, giggling at one another. Anger in you started to boil as you watched San pressed kisses at the back of their hands. The guys noticed that you haven't said a word and grew quiet as they followed your line of sight.

"Do you want me to hurt him for you? Because I'll do it." Mingi threatened, ready to get up and fight.

"Don't...I do have an idea though." You said, stopping him from doing anything.

"What's the plan then?" Yunho asked.

"How about we head back to your house, and while we're driving I call my friend and then one of you can call San to see what happens?"

"Okay, but why the dorm?" Jongho asked.

"Well he might think that no one would be home so he'll try and bring them back with him and then boom, confrontation."

"But why not do it now?" Seonghwa questioned.

"And get me banned from here? Absolutely not." You said, crossing your arms with a huff.

"Let's pay and them get out of here quico before they notice." Hongjoong said. The waiter quickly got the bill and you tried to pay but Yunho stopped you, covering the bill. You made sure to tip, telling the waiter that next time you'll let them know what happened. Leaving the restaurant in pairs as quickly as you could, you all got in the van and headed home. You shortly called your friend afterwards.

"Hey, I just wondering if you really can't make it?" You asked them.

"Yeah uh, it's uh...my cousin's birthday so I'm with them at a restaurant right now." They replied with a shaky voice.

"But I thought none of your cousin's were born this month?" You questioned, knowing all of their family members.

"Well this one is, gotta go bye." They rushed, hanging up on you. Your jaw drops at the fact that they hung up on your face.

"What happened?" Yeosang asked next to you.

"They hung up on me." Gasps are heard in the car at the news.

"I'll call San then." Wooyoung said, taking out his phone.

"Hello?" San answered.

"Where are you and ____?"

"Oh uh, they weren't feeling well so I'm with them to take care of them." You heard him respond and you rolled your eyes.

"Oh, can we talk to ____ then?" Silence fills the air, San trying to scramble for a response.

"Well um, ____ is sleeping right now so you can't. Bye now." He replied, quickly hanging up.

"They're really playing in our faces right now." You said with a scoff. "You know what, someone text him saying that you all decided to get food somewhere else and that you might be coming home late." You proposed. Jongho texted him as you all arrived at their house. Everyone sat on the couch, waiting for it all to unfold.

After maybe an hour, you heard two voices as the door unlocked. You all exchanged looks, knowing that your plan was correct. You hear footsteps walk and then stop, assuming that the pair stopped right where everyone is.

"Uh...so how was the other restaurant?" San asked, trying to diffuse the already tense situation. You craned your neck over at him and your friend.

"I don't know, how was iHop?" Hongjoong asked.

"I don't know what you're talking about." Your friend replied.

"Oh? I thought you would be at your cousin's birthday celebration, what brings you here?" You asked your friend, them now realizing that you're in the room.

"Yeah and I thought ____ was sick?" Wooyoung asked San. Him and your friend exchanged looks, knowing that they've been caught in a lie.

"I should have known something was up when you immediately warmed up to San. Since you like him so much, he's all yours." You said, patting your friend's shoulder.

"____ I-" San started before you cut him off.

"Save it San, I don't want to hear it. We're no longer and we're no longer friends." You said to him and then to your old friend.

"Anyways, I had fun today! We should do that again!" You said to the other members. They all smiled, agreeing to hang out again soon. You said goodbye to them, not saying a word to the new couple and went home. Never in your life did you think something like this would happen to you but there's a first time for everything.
