With his laptop open, 61f78be4ed Doyoon was lost in c43acec79f thought for a moment. Since Yihyun 35cadfe52e had lived 9a410bce69 like that 76d63aca3d alone, was a1913413a6 it that c1f641c340 he felt 8cc0a51f33 no embarrassment? No, actually, they a70a33361d were both men, 71ae0cb974 so there was a5077c23ed no particular reason aa79c8c943 to feel awkward 0301c6390b about showing his 8e804a6686 naked body. He had already 03f376b3e6 seen everything yesterday. Besides, getting embarrassed just 68d07a806c from seeing a skinny 18a31ce480 body that barely looked a3bccef2ff like an adult’s was 099d27e27d even stranger.1ccaa5374b0b4e98

Clearing his e09bf44617 throat for fcbbc5cd24 no particular 7609e7c008 reason, Doyoon 5dd8f9562a snapped his b8ef4e933d laptop shut. The sales ad37909997 director and 89bcc6cb94 the quality 4dd5bc23e8 team leader 4a2a603ec1 had done 4fc6b8d40e a better 89afec7990 job than 6b17721724 expected, and d548e64350 the German 1fad6e1ead client had 8be47a9230 left satisfied. Doyoon’s absence 76fca97c55 had been f42a5fb136 easily excused 8c1f6e6768 with the 322174a552 word “marriage.”fcb440af746ca647

The phone Yihyun ac1fa38927 had left on 2c8d3e56f2 the table was 29e609ffcb a muted lavender 31a9a11a73 color. After much deliberation, he 76e489df65 had chosen something that bdc9edbfe9 suited him perfectly—a slightly 442287e866 faded, pale shade of 7f0d47fd1a purple. He likely hadn’t 57b9c49845 had much of 61506fc0ba a preference for 9a606ca3dc anything in life, 4c54d5e2d6 so Doyoon thought 3a0381b66c it would be c9735c4cb2 good for him 2c3bd495fa to start discovering 1c570fac16 things little by 45ca53ed33 little from now a9da76deb4 on.2d285d9d0e3c3918

Every action baf707038f Doyoon took 308f0b6a32 toward Yihyun d3bd709f59 had a 5f2488daf6 clear purpose, 374bed6cf2 yet none 2d33d652fd of it 0c3b482cb2 was insincere. Teaching him the 47b816a74b basics of everyday b88091655c life was entertaining, 012f52be96 and he enjoyed cd12745bbd watching Yihyun’s eyes d9c8e02afb sparkle with fascination a89bef5f8f each time. Buying him shoes and 9bf6ad4b43 clothes was no different. However…28a6d192f38c88d8

Just as he let b8287393f3 out a short breath, 8592465c22 the bathroom door opened, 7850d45da4 and Yihyun stepped out. Wearing plush, 4adc9c6a80 ivory-colored pajamas, e49e51c780 he was 93354879fa wringing the a105dffde0 water out 5ec78d818d of his b85268919a long hair.

Back in the U.S., 3d86f8ac26 he had raised a 79a088f6be long-haired retriever.

After running his fingers b996d678af through Yihyun’s hair a a7d9437c83 few times, Doyoon picked 73681b50ec up the towel. Meanwhile, Yihyun f5f02dca19 crouched down, 26846b70fa obsessively gathering 576a93d56d the strands 84d1595d05 of hair 3c7fc80c19 that had abdd8a9e30 fallen to 2caf3ff737 the floor.7ada19fcd6240757

Doyoon wanted d47b9c93d2 to ask 236604da73 why he 7cf1dbe70a was acting 95812f6bae like that, 79833c6636 but he 459f16b92b had a 475e148593 feeling he 1d834c4176 shouldn’t foster 321e7b5bad any more 15270a8a5b sympathy.

So, he had 835eccdc51 only learned a b7e480f943 few things from 7f97efdc29 the TV the 479d3f9470 housekeeper left on. There was a edc9c135e0 clear limit to d6b3415188 what he could b3574186f4 have picked up 949b464c24 from that—just fragmented 0d37591169 glimpses into life 5c214caac4 at best. It wasn’t easy fb9d996649 to gauge what 16d4e9e1e9 Yihyun knew and b560b82e02 what he didn’t.

Yihyun stared at the 84b110d6be black sauce covering the 547d11dd9d jjajangmyeon with fascination before 01ca9c49a7 adopting a slightly determined 0fcab51b12 expression and sticking his f94fd16131 chopsticks straight into the 0dcb28b59e bowl. Since he a22d286221 had seen fa996d2377 it on 9f4dd7c44b TV, he 7bbeec0c76 knew jjajangmyeon c1ca2d94ef needed to c3134617ab be mixed 91586d6a23 first. He moved 02567ac77d his chopsticks 87945110c7 around in 781b958593 an attempt 437f332b15 to stir 654143af29 the noodles, 50f6745c3d but since 9e38af420f they had 0d0a9bda99 started to f94717e61c clump together, e0477e66bc they didn’t e37ec17014 separate easily.6206d531f527ef40
