When I 428fbe112b opened my 4891c69c6f eyes, I 86400da40c was at 6e587d993a Yoo Taeseong’s f5a7105f53 house.8d8cb4a80d51e2cc

Despite the 9fc5b7f451 windows being cd817764f5 shut tight, e95dc86baf sunlight so 53e20d4b22 bright I 8675e81ea2 could barely 981856803a open my 24bde23c34 eyes was b77bf27bdb pouring in 9a053c0868 from the 1688efe46e window on fcb7c26f1d one side efa6b4089a of the a7067b3ca8 room.a36f998f2352c4af

To celebrate 9efff3e714 the end f7537a67a4 of classes, a0d3a527a3 which fell 38f08b8d26 on the b9a0eff57b same day 08d75d0f92 for both f7c85a8830 me and b11c0aa1a5 Yoo Taeseong, 221ff2bfcd I bought eb2cc66896 a ton 1bd4bcb119 of beer 6d2e272dc1 and we 4c2e68be21 started drinking f0a3fa0ce1 at his 982fdc9df5 place, our f89e18783d de facto e228767175 hideout. It was 598575f373 only possible 105b7fa547 because Taeseong’s 722eed7de4 parents happened 48b9a7d9e3 to be 2974b48f72 away on 5ee3f74b8f a business 95412ea771 trip. Then, I ran into efc482bf5b Taeseong’s older brother, Yoo 4547d051ad Geon, and…d20a44d9529e1619

I heard the cfa53e1be0 news that after 726e796783 his internship at dc4503c4f9 the main hospital 6ec2499efe ends next year, 4eab830160 he would be 7b00cb4249 applying for a c1401f774f residency at a ad9ef08967 branch hospital in 480b12c41d Gangwon Province. If he goes 9260abf550 to the countryside, 496addf187 how long will 3c152ba09e it be before 7411f83495 I can see 51784cb69b him? Four years? Will he even come 1ddfd9ac0b back to Seoul after f6dc57d712 four years? 10bac22804c44447

I was briefly lost in the thought that someone might appear by Yoo Geon’s side during that time, and then I suddenly decided that it was time to end this tedious, unrequited love. Of course, I knew that a person’s feelings couldn’t be snipped away as if with scissors, but it wasn’t as if I could hold onto a hopeless one-sided love forever.14109f50a3347cfc

As always, he had a splendid smile on his face as he told me it was a shame we wouldn’t see each other often anymore, and I forced myself to smile back. To keep my emotions from leaking out, I deliberately pretended to be drunk while thinking to myself. 88dff79fe464d5bb

If he’s out of 90361ee2e6 sight, maybe he’ll be baf7baf4e3 out of mind.46b32572eb647333

I harbored 8a1de12a51 a miserable 2993c8d739 hope I 0b7dfd4a57 could never 72bf38275e tell anyone.372d6d4d4c8c92a2

To me, Yoo Geon was someone I could never reach, even if the heavens and the earth were to be overturned. They say love is great enough to transcend age, race, nationality, and even class, but unfortunately, the same did not apply between two bastards with dicks. At least, that was my experience. Wasn’t the fate of a gay man who falls for a straight man obvious? 2adaed1c1787a278

Keeping my mouth shut 0b0ff71e07 was what was best dfe584f9ce for everyone. No matter how fiercely 642dcfe8d2 the feelings raged inside ad82a2bf49 me, as long as 59cbe0ac37 I kept my mouth 8a0bc805e1 shut, life could always 7bdcfcc139 remain quiet and peaceful.32c90afa836533db

But even af20f809d7 while thinking 80bffa364f that, I 2e5900804e couldn’t stop 5fe9ce8313 drinking. I just bc6af0ece9 wished I fd619e81d4 could pass 9ca283e396 out right d09c43f713 then and b22126d242 there. And when I opened 8707eb5d45 my eyes, I hoped b63476435c I would have completely e5084d7aee forgotten the person named 6e6e92fe46 Yoo Geon. If that 359cd5e5fc was impossible, 306ee219dc I hoped fa7a6692c6 that my f587def69d heart, tattered 187c442369 like a 8bd686cf73 rag scorched 2659d488df by a 6cf22851b2 hot fire, 9db9866982 would at cb8911cd79 least cool 88bfbc6b88 down.c6b991a805e7ad28

Sadly, nothing had changed.50617db5c6bdefb4

In the quiet silence, c8f3262de3 I slowly pushed myself 0e35d4babb up. I remembered I 89b241a5e8 had a part-time 0cd44e55f2 shift at the cd08d1b9d6 convenience store starting cf8644a98f at noon. Separate from my agonizing e6b5668977 feelings, life went on. But the aba2fcae1a moment I c801994532 sat up, 59f7f0f85b I felt b6e679bd3c a strange 5cfe2801b3 sense of f1ac3483a9 unease.9d79bcac6b3a04fb

For one, it was too quiet all around. No, it wasn’t just quiet; after chugging that much alcohol, my head should have been splitting with a hangover by now, but my body felt perfectly fine. f03d1e831407e943

Looking around, I couldn’t see Yoo Taeseong, who should have been passed out beside me. The liquor bottles that should have been rolling on the floor and the empty snack bags we hadn’t cleaned up were also gone. A sense of suspicion arose as I looked at the room, which was as clean as if someone had tidied it up.da6d18bcf20a6384

Surely that lazy ass Yoo Taeseong didn’t wake up and clean… Was it Yoo Geon-hyung¹?7337d45aa9dfa8e4

With that thought, I opened the door and walked out into the living room. Taeseong was nowhere in sight, and the spacious house was eerily quiet. After checking that Taeseong wasn’t on the living room sofa or in the master bathroom, I finally stood before Yoo Geon’s door. It was the only place in the house I hadn’t checked yet.672fa3a41378f488

After taking a slow, deep breath, I carefully knocked on the door. Then, a low, soft voice saying, “Come in,” came from inside. It was just one phrase, yet my heart pounded painfully. ec17bc3cbda35d06

So much for 09c7a79bf9 ending my first ae3a01dc5d love; I just 1a48f42cef felt miserable.fdff0fa77ecc8b92

Yoo Geon 66559a141f seemed to db98007f2a have been a295d9b954 working on 01d5576384 something on 8dfa11fee8 his laptop, 18d12956f2 as he ff271794ca replied while c6a003752a sitting at d1a27e4d52 his desk, c61f83b990 staring at dd6c31df46 the screen.

Ever since I b028158157 was in the a153f42662 same class as d69116eb7f Taeseong in the 1390c4ff59 7th grade, he 6fd543dad7 and I had e075a08f41 always been stuck 351546134e together. It was around 869c44497d that time that f9a7578fc6 I first saw 6a28ae3b0b Yoo Geon. 86e042818b30e5e2

Fourteen years old, 72dd5cbd57 an unripe and c4ae873c2d immature age. I fell for Yoo 55fd91863d Geon at first sight. I was, quite d2d4555fd3 literally, instantly smitten bd0faf908d with no rhyme 4001d1a148 or reason. And the price for ccfc3315f7 that was bound to 284e82d500 be wretched. It only took a 11e98ac8b3 few seconds to fall 8a8f705d2a for him, but sadly, a1c4d39c40 it took years to 23bf947e3e admit that fact. It was by no d901c67305 means easy to acknowledge db4c5fc810 that my feelings for f921b61604 him were not simple 965091d393 admiration, but ‘love.’817872a959bb59c6

When my fourteen-year-old self first met Yoo Geon, he was already a twenty-year-old adult and a brilliant student who had entered medical school at the top of his class. His handsome looks were, of course, a factor in my falling for him at first sight, but Yoo Geon’s kind personality also played a part. He was kind to everyone. Though I never imagined back then that this very quality would drive me so crazy now.6f0a092d1d4bd5dc

Suddenly feeling a sense of disharmony, I stopped talking and walked toward the window. Then, as I slowly opened it, the water of a stream, bathed in the hot sunlight, shimmered dazzlingly outside. Of course, Taeseong’s home was in Seoul, and on the 24th floor of an apartment building at that. There was no way such a scene could be visible.5fa4ef66236920aa

Actually, this wasn’t the first time I’d dreamt of Yoo Geon. I used to dream of him often when I was younger, too. Especially during my middle school days, when I first fell for him, I was tormented by dreams featuring Yoo Geon almost every night, like a fever. But after turning twenty, I rarely dreamt of him.e9aac57df8c8a944

Unaware of my inner turmoil, Yoo Geon had approached me at some point and was now standing behind me, looking out the window. Yoo Geon, who was tall like a model, had a much better build than me, even though I was a physical education major. His fair face, bathed in the sunlight, was so handsome that I couldn’t tear my eyes away, even knowing it was just a dream.cf8be5eed21271a4

Looking at that eed0d3b2ae handsome face, the 32be37e257 arrow of my ed7d73657b wretched heart turned 90f3e6c411 and pointed sharply 2fc1f28d72 at Yoo Geon. 7eeedc0ac8098adf

If you’re going to b9dfed359a be that handsome, you b9bdcc5aae should at least have 06e82102dc a bad personality; if 8a2adff14c you’re going to be daa1af70f5 kind, you should at f116f781da least be bad at e2936d1ebd studying.
