Chapter 46 - Acting Weird
"I will wait, no matter how long it takes" the words suddenly came out of Song Ji Hun's mouth
"What? You will wait? For what exactly?" Kiaraa was surprised at his choice of words.
"I mean if I would have been Romeo I will wait" Song Ji Hun himself was not sure why he said those words and what he was saying now.
Kiaraa chuckled hearing his words, "You are indeed as weird as I thought you to be"
Song Ji Hun just smiled back at her.
The next moment Juliet too kills herself.
"Ahhh, what a dumb story" Kiaraa frustratedly muttered.
The next moment Romeo and Juliet's feuding family finally reconcile over their children's deaths.
"If they were about to reconcile like this then Romeo and Juliet should have just faked their deaths and after the family's reconciliation they can just appear shouting 'busted'" Kiaraa shared an alternate ending, the one she would have preferred.
Song Ji Hun smiled hearing her version of the story, "Seems like you would have done a better job than Shakespeare if you wrote Romeo and Juliet"
"I know, right?" Kiaraa didn't disagree.
Song Ji Hun smiled, helplessly shaking his head, looking at this narcissistic woman, who indeed believed she could have done a better job than the greatest writer in this world.
The play was done and the whole cast and crew bowed to the audience concluding the play.
They received a standing ovation from the audience.
Song Ji Hun and Kiaraa too stood up in appreciation as it was indeed a good play.
Keeping aside their toxic opinion, they enjoyed it a lot.
Song Ji Hwan came back to join Kiaraa as the play was over but was shocked seeing his brother standing next to her.
"Hyung" Ji Hwan called his brother, "You are attending a play? Seriously?" He didn't hide how surprised he was to see his brother there.
Song Ji Hun was planning to leave before his parents or brother could notice him but alas, he was caught.
"Why? Can't I attend a play?" Song Ji Hun coldly asked his brother surprising Kiaraa as until a minute ago he sounded so gentle and in the very next moment he sounded scary.
Song Ji Hwan was used to this tone, so he didn't find anything weird rather if he would have heard how gently his brother talked to Kiaraa a moment ago, he would have gone crazy by now.
"Well, you can but you usually don't prefer to. That's why you even rejected to star in this play."
"Acting in a play and watching it are different experiences, can't be compared."
"But I am sure your watching experience must have been ruined" Song Ji Hwan commented and looked at Kiaraa, "You must have annoyed my sweet brother." he concluded.
"Nonsense, rather we had a lot of fun watching this play, he is a better partner than you are" Kiaraa rolled her eyes before walking away from there to meet Ian, back-stage.
"What?" Song Ji Hwan kept looking at Kiaraa's retreating back before looking back at his elder brother, who too left from there and headed towards the exit.
Song Ji Hwan looked around and after spotting his brother in the crowd, he chased him.
"Hyung, wait" he shouted and caught his brother's arm, stopping him.
"What?" Ji Hun coldly asked him trying to hide his nervousness.
Song Ji Hwan is the only man who can match Song Ji Hun's smartness, so much that he is the only one who can beat Song Ji Hun at things he is good at.
Therefore, Song Ji Hun is careful around his brother as he is the only person, who can see through him.
"Why did Kiaraa say you guys had a lot of fun?" Song Ji Hwan caught on the important information he came across and directly asked his elder brother.
"You should ask her" Song Ji Hun wished to walk away but his brother didn't let him.
"My sweet Hyung, why are you nervous?" Song Ji Hwan's question startled Ji Hun.
"Nervous? Are you crazy?"
Song Ji Hwan held the arm of his brother and lifted it a bit higher and wrapped his fingers around Ji Hun's wrist, "Your pulse rate says something else" he pointed it out.
"Ji Hwan, don't waste my time"
"Since, when have you been interested in plays and girls?" Song Ji Hwan's sudden direct question made Song Ji Hun uncomfortable.
"Hwan, don't cross the line"
"There is no line between us" He countered.
Song Ji Hun deeply sighed, "I was bored so I decided to watch a play, coincidentally I ended up sitting next to her. We had similar opinion on the play, which we discussed"
A huge grin was spread across Song Ji Hwan's lips, "Hyung, since when have you started explaining yourself and that too to me?"
Song Ji Hun frowned.
"You are acting different than you usually do." Song Ji Hwan again pointed out.
"Stop interrogating me as if I am some criminal" Song Ji Hun warned him and Ji Hwan decided to let his elder brother off.
"Fine, I'll go and meet Ian. He did a great job today; you want to tag along?"
"No and he was not that great, I would have done a better job" Song Ji Hun couldn't control himself from saying so.
Song Ji Hwan was again surprised as it was unlike his elder brother to compare himself to anyone especially a person like Ian, who doesn't exist for Ji Hun.
"You are acting weird" Song Ji Hwan exclaimed.
"I am hungry" Song Ji Hun made up an excuse and was about to leave when Song Ji Hwan said, "I don't know what opinions you and Kiaraa shared but I am sure they must be shitty"
"That's your opinion" Song Ji Hun left from there leaving Song Ji Hwan smiling as he could clearly see the change in his elder brother.
Song Ji Hwan then headed back stage to congratulate Ian on his mind-blowing performance.
