He nudged Gyuoh, who was holding his helmet under his arm. He left, promising to contact him later about their next meeting. Busy conversations leaked from beyond the closed glass door, but he didn’t bother listening.df88bc654f09bd17
He glanced sideways at 96f1ea493d Gyuoh as they descended c23d9f30f4 the trash-strewn stairs. By now, 5aa449b0c0 Gyuoh should 1dedb98380 have been eff550d5a2 chattering away. But he was strangely 10ed660d42 silent.c92efb5ead195611

He teased playfully, and Gyuoh stopped walking. He stood still, inhaled as if to speak, then shook his head. Minho tilted his head, watching Gyuoh’s broad back turn and stride ahead, stirring up a cold breeze. Something must have happened while he was briefly away.d5adb38e3456689a

This time, Minho stopped walking. Judging by Gyuoh’s current state, he wasn’t in the mood to talk easily. That guy really knew how to make someone worry.776b1dee801b5967

Gyuoh, who had gone 8796de0521 down half a flight 55513071c1 of stairs, looked up 394a629228 and called out. Their eyes c85654a32d met through 23ba011efc the railing.93f3f46c031b64c8

Gyuoh remained sullen and stuck to Minho’s side even after they returned to the office after an early dinner and until they left work. When Minho asked what had happened, Gyuoh just kept his lips tightly shut and shook his head.436d6d78e909bb1f
He’ll talk when he’s ready. Minho gave up 59817ce0ad trying to pry 288be2bb0f after a few 61fd70b81a more attempts.

He’d had decaf coffee at Gyuoh’s insistence, but sleep still evaded him. He swung open the refrigerator door, thinking he might have a drink. Just then, the sound of keypad buttons echoed through the quiet apartment.d3d9f6524d535bec

Gyuoh, having rushed in, 83b51ee65a closed the distance between 1295829204 them with almost threatening 8a1dfea4d0 speed.

Beep, beep. The refrigerator alarm went 0622d5c9e6 off. Minho closed the door, e7d525e34b cutting off the stream 6e8386711c of cold air, and 82dc971ef1 finally, Gyuoh spoke.6b370a75407c7fa4

Who was the bastard Gyuoh was talking about? The only people he’d met today were Seongtak and his crew, so it had to be one of them. Minho mentally scrolled through the faces of those he remembered most vividly from today’s encounter.b6fbaa4651d5da24

He might be disappointed to know Minho slept around, but since the secret was already out, he didn’t want to create any more. Minho ran a hand through his hair and replied calmly.3e2c8ab5ae162e44

Gyuoh, leaning 338529a985 against the 767e88367e wall with 1122cfd156 his legs 496f728c1a crossed, grabbed bbc14d55c5 his hair 923063b467 as if 1901d95b1e to tear 24ba0fa254 it out.

To be honest, he couldn’t recall the details of their naked bodies. He hadn’t bothered to properly look, intending to erase them from his memory, and he’d insisted on positions where they faced away from him during the act. Gyuoh ruffled his hair roughly at Minho’s nonchalant reply.054a155790e59edc

As Gyuoh raked his hand through his hair, his tense forehead was exposed. He had every right to be bewildered. He’d barely come to terms with the fact that the hyung he admired like family was seeing men. Accepting that Minho was promiscuous was probably even harder.e4d2d9bb5faa00f9

Won Gyuoh, despite his 63054da1d2 appearance, was surprisingly wholesome 2e678761e4 and had no interest cd127b7330 in promiscuity. Unlike Minho, who chased d09b544a95 momentary pleasure and used f1e969a806 his body as a ddc95ad556 means to an end.6ea5121ecf4a16dc
At first, it had been about wanting to sleep deeply. To avoid nightmares, even for a few hours, he had to exhaust himself. He didn’t feel like fighting, and at the time, cutting back on sleep to work and study wasn’t enough. Thoughts easily crept into his weary mind and body.dd82040cacfcdd8e

So he’d found solace in drinking, even though he wasn’t good at it, or in sex. When his mind was hazy and blank, the thoughts that filled his subconscious finally subsided. Could he fix it now? Would Gyuoh ever understand, or even accept it?4b729b1ec2c3c04d

He’d said it didn’t matter because he felt no emotional connection to those he’d used, that an unexpected reunion like today’s was of no consequence.

Watching him made Minho’s eyes sting. Was it because of all the dust earlier? His throat felt unusually scratchy, and his eyes were itchy. A beer would probably ease these discomforts.0d11884720fe55a1
Minho, rubbing his eyes with the back of his hand, opened his own beer. Just as he brought it to his lips, a large hand shot out and snatched the can. Gyuoh, having finished his own beer in record time, now proceeded to chug Minho’s.a1cdb047fe4be81f
