Yea I uh- think it might be ur trust issues lol Well at least I don’t personally believe that he is deflecting. I think he was trying to be more decisive by saying that instead of just saying that he doesn’t like Jooha. We even saw as he came to realization that he liked Aejoon. (▰˘◡˘▰)
Is it just me or I think Siyeol hasn't completely gotten over his crush for Jooha...(?) Sure he said he likes Aejoon and even cried but the moment Aejoon asked him whether he still likes Jooha or not, Siyeol didn't exactly answered his question. "The one I like right now is you, hyung" is more likely a deflect(?) I think...
Maybe Siyeol still does have feelings for Jooha but he rather settled down with Aejoon since he knows he will never have a chance with Jooha bc Jooha is dating with Kyusung (but since Jooha did save Siyeol before so it's understandable ig to still harbour feelings)...
Or maybe I just have extreme trust issues...
