Chapter 170: Seojun, Seojin, did you two ever get modeling lessons?

"You know, for a moment there, I thought you would cry, Hyung." Seojin said as they walked towards a bridge.

’Well, I did.’ Dongwoo thought. ’I just cleaned it up before you realized it. But it wasn’t as much as my heart let out.’

Seojin hooked his pinky finger in Dongwoo’s and Seojun did the same. They couldn’t walk while holding hands so they could at least do that.

"Did you know," Dongwoo suddenly spoke up. "It almost felt like you two were proposing."

"Really?" They both chorused.

"It must’ve been the moment, and I was being delusional, but I asked myself. If they did propose, how would I react?" He stopped walking and so did they. "Stupid, right?"

"Not stupid, Hyung. It’s actually quite relieving to hear." Seojin said.

"How so?" Dongwoo asked, unsure what part of what he said was relieving.

"Well, it goes to show that you have thoughts of spending the rest of your life with us." He said and brought Dongwoo’s hand to his lips.

"Well, I said I don’t know how I would react. I didn’t say I would say yes." He said but they shook their heads, smiling at him.

"That’s more than enough. You already considered the future with us for you to think of a proposal. Whether you say yes or no depends on the future and of course, when that time comes, we will not give you a chance to refuse."

The glow in his eyes was filled with determination.

’Well, until then, right?’ Dongwoo thought. "Let’s just take things slow."

They walked towards the bridge and discovered it was a locking bridge.

There were padlocks locked on the bridge and the keys were probably thrown in the water.

"Isn’t it just futile?" Dongwoo asked.

"I heard it works." Seojin said. "Let’s try it."

Though Dongwoo didn’t really see the sense to it and just thought it was a romantic endeavor by lovers who wanted, more than anything, for their relationship to last till the end.

The twins bought the padlocks and engraved all three initials on it.

Then, they gave the key to Dongwoo.

"Lock it, Hyung. This relationship will only work if your heart stays steadfast on us so you have the most important role." Seojin explained and Dongwoo nodded.

He took the key, opened the padlock, and locked it on the bridge. It was one of many others.

"The ritual is complete and now your heart is locked with ours. Muhahaha!" Seojun gave a villain character speech with an eerie laugh at the end that Seojin had to elbow him to bring him back to his senses.

"Cut it out. You’ll scare Hyung." He said but instead of getting scared, Dongwoo laughed instead.

Who knew Seojun had that side of him? It was so childish and humane.

On their way back, they stopped at a restaurant to eat, and there, Dongwoo finally asked the question that had been sitting in the corner of his heart,

"Seojun, Seojin, did you two ever get modeling lessons?" He asked and right away, they answered,

"Yes."

"Ah!"

It was no wonder they were so good at it. They were practically professionals at that point. He didn’t even have to ask before they moved their bodies, exposing more charisma and more of their well-built frames, and also shaking off the product they were displaying.

"When? And from who? Does this have to do with why the company favors you so much?" His questions came in a bit rushed that the twins had to say,

"Slow down, Hyung. We’ll answer each and every one of your questions." Seojin said. "Now from the start, ask again."

"When did you start getting modeling lessons?" Dongwoo asked.

"About six years ago." Seojin answered and Dongwoo blinked, surprised. "But don’t get it wrong," he further explained. "...we didn’t sign up with any agency or do any part-time modeling gigs."

"Then, why were you taking lessons, and from who? I don’t think there’s anyone who would spare that much time when they wouldn’t get anything in return." Dongwoo pointed out and they nodded.

"Yeah, it wasn’t free." Seojun said. "But it was a pretty cheap price, compared to what we did for them."

Dongwoo was tempted to ask what they paid in return and the identity of ’them’. But he wanted to be patient and hear them out completely.

Who knows? They may end up revealing it before he even asks.

"As for why we took modeling lessons," Seojun continued. "We didn’t aspire to become models because of a dream or shit like that. We just... Wanted our face to be everywhere so that it would be easy for Hyung to find us." He raised his gaze, looking softly at Dongwoo. "They said that if we became models and our faces appeared everywhere, Hyung would be able to find us no matter where he was and that was what we strived for."

Dongwoo was a bit lost. What did they mean they wanted to be models just so they could find him?

"After we were taken away, a few years later, we found our way back with their help. We wanted to see you but when we went to your address, you weren’t there. We heard from the neighbors that your grandma died, so you moved out after graduation." He stared at the cup in his hand. "They didn’t know where you went. No one did. It was like all traces of you had disappeared from the entire town. It was painful."

"But we knew you were in a lot more pain having gone through all that and lost your grandmother as well. And though we were close by, closer than we had been in the past few years, we could not do anything to help as we could not find you anywhere."

Their narration was rather hurtful to hear. Their voices were low and heavy with sadness.

To think they came back to find him. He didn’t know.

"So, we decided that since we could not find you, we would make it so you could find us." Seojin said, lifting his head to smile at him. "And though it didn’t go according to plan since you found your way to us before we could even go live, it still worked out perfectly. We were able to be together again."

Dongwoo’s heartbeat was loud and fast. To think they would go that far.

They were that obsessed with him.

"As for who we refer to as ’them’ you’ve already met him." Seojun said and Dongwoo raised his head. "Geum Haejoo." He said and Dongwoo’s eyes widened. "He’s the one who’s been putting us through all these years in return for our ’help’."

"We originally planned to come to Korea after meeting you back then but then he contacted us that our picture was used to enter the contest. That was how it all came about, Hyung."

"Our endurance and wish to see Hyung again rounded us to this point, with you."

They concluded and asked the dumbfounded Dongwoo,

"Are you mad that we didn’t tell you any of this?"

Dongwoo blinked and then shook his head.

"Well, no. Not at all." He said. "If anything, I’m just amazed that you would go so far for me. It makes me question how many good deeds I did in my past life to come across such fateful and devoted obsession."

"Obsession." Seojun muttered a bit sadly. "I guess you can put it that way."

"Hyung, please know we hold your best interest at heart and everything we do is because we love you." Seojin concluded.

"I’m not mad." Dongwoo said. "If anything, I’m elated but for some reason, I don’t know how to express my feelings. What do I do?"

"It’s okay, Hyung." Seojin said, reaching out to hold his hand. "You can take your time to process it all."

Dongwoo nodded.

"Thank you."

Honestly, it was just so much that he wondered how deep their obsession ran. It was this obsession that made them what they currently were.

And it was the obsession that helped push him out of the despair and darkness he had been wallowing in.

So what if they were obsessed with him? They were his and he was theirs. He didn’t care as long as they stuck with him no matter what.

He smiled.

"So, I’m guessing the CEO also taught you how to walk the runway."

They nodded and smiled. Well, this was good. Dongwoo wouldn’t need to worry about them anymore. Rather, he was proud they came this far because of him.

(Mrs_TNT always grateful for the comments and yes, my sense of humor is off the roof. lol

And Taiha, spoiler, already knows their in a relationship but he’s keeping it to himself.If you remember clearly, there was a yellow sign in front of the restroom area to avoid people from going there. He’s the one who put it there, hehe

Anyway, he’s one big angel)
