The Journey of Love by an Idol

Episodes 108

“This is the club? Why is it so quiet?”, Daehyun asked the driver.

“Ah.. if I see on the map, this is indeed the club.”, said the driver.

“Hm.. alright.. Ahjussi, you don't have to wait for me. Someone's gonna bring my car here. You can go home.”, Daehyun said.

“Really? Is it okay - what?”, asked the driver.

Yes, if something happens to Daehyun, of course he will also be hit by the stone.

“No, just relax. After all, Bokman hyung has also sent people. He can make sure of me later if you don't believe me. Hows it? You believe me now?”, asked Daehyun.

“Hm.. alright then. ⁇ (Sugohasyosemnida).”, said the driver while making sure Daehyun had gotten out of the car perfectly.

“Nee.. ⁇ (sugo haseyo).”, reply Daehyun closed the car slowly and stepped inside the club.

Along the way he actually felt strange why there were not many cars there. Usually there will be a lot of cars - the cars of the crew who will hold after party events. Plus, Daehyun saw some people he did not know enter the club.

Supposedly, this place was definitely rented by the event team. Although Daehyun does not know all the crew, but that does not mean he does not remember their faces. But, Daehyun did not know any of the people who entered the club.

“Daehyun-shi.”, call Hyun Joo who is already standing and waiting in the entrance hallway to the club.

“Oh.. Hyun Joo.. Why are you wearing a hat and sunglasses in a dark room like this?”, asked Daehyun confusedly.

“Sini.”, Hyun Joo said as he walked into one of the rooms he had rented before.

He pushed Daehyun inside and peered briefly out to make sure no one was following them.

“You know what you have to do, right? Make sure no one bothers us. Just be careful if there is media coming in.”, said Hyun Joo while giving money to the officer who stood guard in front.

“Hyun Joo..Are you?”, call Daehyun confused by Hyun Joo's actions.

 However, Daehyun was already able to draw conclusions on Hyun Joo's actions.

“Oh.. mianhae.. I had to lie to you in order to speak more freely.”, Hyun Joo replied.

“Yaa... Do you realize what you've done? I want to go back.”, said Daehyun standing from his chair.

“Daehyun-oppa, I really sincerely like you and want to stay with you. You know, I could've chosen not to tell you my problem so you didn't know anything and it didn't exist. Our relationship will be fine. Butwhat? I keep telling you. Because what? Because I love you. I believe in you.”, Hyun Joo said while holding Daehyun's hand.

“And you act like that. I'm appalled. I'm rattled. I didn't think you'd respond beyond my expectations. I'm we you'll understand and understand.”, Hyun Joo said as he looked at Daehyun gently.

“I just want you to be completely honest with your actions before it gets bigger and destroys your career.”, Daehyun said staring at Hyun Joo.

“Do you not think that this will destroy my career? I only did it once. Only once. And that woman is my friend too. He also did not report to anyone. As long as Min Hyuk Jae wants to submit the video, then everything will be fine.”, said Hyun Joo.

“Huh, then, will the man just shut up? He came to threaten you with the video. I think however still the solution I give is the best.”, said Daehyun still trying to calm down.

“I can't control people out there. Once that's out, I'll be gone from this entertainment world forever. I built it from scratch and you want me to destroy it?”, Hyun Joo said.

“You just have to apologize. If it is a small matter as you say and the victim does not report you, then others will also accept it.”

“Daehyun-oppa, I only did it once. Only once for one person. It wasn't as bad as it looks in the.” video Hyun Joo said.

“Are you sure you only do it once and only on one person?”, someone arrives - suddenly appears from the door.

“Min Hyuk Jae?”, said Hyun Joo surprised. Same with Daehyun.

‘Shouldn't he be at After Party? I have confirmed to his manager and he will be attending the event.’, Hyun Joo said in his heart.

“Why? You surprised? You think I was on After Party? Huh, Hyun Joo - yes.. After our relationship all this time, you still do not know about me?”, said Min Hyuk Jae.

His expression and the way he spoke were much different from when he met Daehyun the other day. Daehyun looked at Min Hyuk Jae, trying to analyze what happened and what the man really wanted. A connection? What relation? What relationship he has with Hyun Joo.

“Daehyun-shi. You think you're dating a kind daughter who's loved all over the country? You are 100% wrong. Hyun Joo.. Better, while there is time, you can leave him.”, Hyuk Jae told Daehyun.

He spoke formally but his tone was as if superior compared to Daehyun.

“Hyuk Jae, shut up.”, Hyun Joo said immediately warning Min Hyuk Jae.

“Ah.. earlier she told you she only did it once. Hm... What do five people count as one? He bullied 5 people during his time in high school. One person did not dare to go to school, 3 people moved, and hm.. Hyun Joo-ah how are you with one more person?”, Min Hyuk Jae said staring at Hyun Joo with a sly smile.

“Daehyun-oppa, don't trust him. Five guys? You think they're stupid enough to keep quiet if I really bullied them?” Hyun Joo replied.

“Ah. of course not. They complain to the school but it is not your agency that shuts their mouths. By then you were a trainee and things like that weren't good for your reputation. They are not unwilling, but your agency is better suppressing their weaknesses. But you know Ahn So Hee. She's with you, right? Are you still bullying her?”, asked Min Hyuk Jae to bring himself closer to Hyun Joo.

Daehyun did not want to hear more about this nonsense anymore. The man stood up and was about to leave the room. However, Hyun Joo tried to hold him back.

“Daehyun-oppa, you don't believe his words just like that right?” Hyun Joo said while holding Daehyun.

Min Hyuk Jae then immediately opened one of the files containing Hyun Joo's bullying video.

“Yaaa... You can't install it properly? You want me to dip it in the toilet again? Oh? Quickly do. Be careful if something is not neat.”

“Daehyun-shi.. Daehyun-oppa..”, Hyun Joo called Daehyun who directly came out of the room.

“You bastard Min Hyuk Jae.”, Hyun Joo said staring intently at Hyuk Jae.

“Yaaaa.. Hence, we should get along with our fellow man. Why should you approach Kang Daehyun. ⁇ (Jaemi-eobseo).”, Hyuk Jae concluded with a smile.

Daehyun came out of the club with an unsettled heart. Pissed, yes. She realized she was dating Jang Hyun Joo not because she was interested in Hyun Joo. The woman expressed her affection for Daehyun. There was no reason for Daehyun not to accept his declaration of love. It was possible that as time went on, he would be interested in Hyun Joo.

At that time Daehyun thought, maybe all this is only about timing. Hyun Joo may have liked him first and the woman acted much faster. It was possible that if the woman did not express her joy, it was gradually Daehyun who built up that feeling and acted first.

Daehyun admitted that during the relationship that was still a lifetime of corn, she put a sense of care and interest in Hyun Joo. It may not yet be called love but the sense of attraction exists.

Now after hearing Hyun Joo's confession to her the other day, Daehyun was honestly a little disappointed. However, after a long thought he tried to understand Hyun Joo's mistake. Yes, maybe he made a mistake and he can still improve by confessing and apologizing.

But, hearing Hyuk Jae's confession earlier, Daehyun was shocked. He could no longer believe whether the woman he was with was Hyun Joo.

“Ah **,”, complained Daehyun.

Because of his emotions, he accidentally left his phone on the VIP room table that Hyun Joo had rented earlier. Inevitably, Daehyun had to go back and take it.

There, Hyun Joo realized Daehyun's phone was left on the table upside down. He glanced at Min Hyuk Jae for a moment and picked up as if the phone was his.

He had no idea what Min Hyuk Jae would do if he knew the phone belonged to Daehyun.

“Hyun Joo, do you want to reopen our old memory?”, said Min Hyuk Jae approaching Hyun Joo.

There's only two of them there now. Without even poking Hyuk Jae's words, Hyun Joo got up and was about to leave the room. He just wants to go home.

Suddenly Hyuk Jae held her back and pushed Hyun Joo onto the sofa.

“Hyuk Jae, what are you doing? How dare you.”, said Hyun Joo surprised and angry with the treatment of Hyuk Jae just now.

Although they knew each other long before this, but Hyun Joo was an actress. She did not expect Hyuk Jae to dare to treat her like that.

“I told you. Let's recall our memories first. Do you remember what we did in the gym?”, Hyuk Jae smiled at Hyun Joo.

“Fuck.”, reply Hyun Joo.

“Huh, if only Ahn So Hee hadn't caught us. Maybe you are all mine.”, Hyuk Jae said, continuing to bring himself closer to Hyun Joo.

“How dare you approach once more, I will report you to the police for abuse.”, Hyun Joo threatened.

“Try. I was also curious how your bullying case could mask your report.”, Hyuk Jae said.

Hyun Joo's face turned furious.

“Hyuk Jae, I warn you.. Don't be brave - be brave.. Yaaa..”, Hyun Joo tried to get away from Hyuk Jae who was going to kiss him.

Bukkkkkkkkp..

Someone suddenly came and pulled Hyuk Jae's body and beat him up.

“Hah shhh... Yes. Hyun Joo.follow me.”, said Daehyun going to pull Hyun Joo out of there.

Hyun Joo was surprised, embarrassed, and also grateful that Daehyun was coming soon. He did not know what would happen if the man did not arrive on time. Hyun Joo followed Daehyun's hand at least until they made it out of the club.

“Let me go. I can go home by myself.”, said Hyun Joo releasing his hand from Daehyun's grip.

“You want something like that to happen again? What do you want to go home with? Yura noona called me asking if I was with you. I've asked him to pick you up here immediately, so wait in my car for a while until he comes.”, Daehyun said.

“Thank you. But I better wait for him at the nearest cafe.”, said Hyun Joo.

“You almost experienced something bad like that and still haven't learned? Sign in. There is something I have to talk to you.”, said Daehyun again pulled Hyun Joo to immediately get into his car that has been delivered by his agency team.

“Daehyun-appa. I'm really embarrassed to face you. So let me wait at the nearest cafe.”, Hyun Joo said pleading.

“You want everyone to recognize you in these circumstances? Login.”, Daehyun said again.

Hyun Joo was forced to get in the car. Honestly, he was embarrassed to have to deal with Daehyun now after everything that Hyuk Jae said earlier inside.

“If you still think of me as someone valuable, then answer my question honestly.”, Daehyun said.

“What is true of everything that Hyuk Jae says?”, Daehyun asked brightly - brightly.

Hyun Joo refused to answer or turned to Daehyun and chose to look out the window. Though, Daehyun looked at Hyun Joo and waited for the woman to answer him.

“Hyun Joo-ah. “, asked Daehyun.

“Yura-eonni-da's chat.. Gomawo.. “, Hyun Joo said briefly and then got out and closed his car door.

Daehyun hit the steering wheel of his car in frustration.
