END/ 삼십일

That night, as Kyungsoo worked throughout the night at the office, Chanyeol read the book and cried. When he read the author's note in the beginning, he didn't understand why Baekhyun had chosen to write it until he read the story. By the time Chanyeol had read every word and had closed the book, tears streamed down his face as he realized that the book was their story, but with the ending that both he and Baekhyun had secretly yearned for in their hearts.

"A certain giant would always tell me that it's pointless to cry at the end of movies that don't end the way we want because it wouldn't change anything, and I would always ask him what was so wrong with wishing for a different outcome."

Unable to take any of it anymore, Chanyeol tossed the book on his bed as he took his jacket and left the apartment. And beyond his knowledge, when the book landed, it opened to one of the last pages where Baekhyun had typed his final message.

-THE END-

~ I checked and this translates to : Thank you for loving me even if it was just for a week and thank you for making me feel as if you loved me again. You took me back to a time when you loved me and that's all I could ever ask for in this short lifetime. I love you, giant. Thank you for everything..."

You can cry all over again now.
