It was quite a good Monday for one Choi Yeonjun.

He somehow woke up early, went to work and managed to not get too irritated at the rude customers that came by once every other hour, and when work was done he went on Twitter, screamed about Choi Soobin, and played video games, you know, like a functioning member of society would.

That was until his parents came.

He liked his parents and was glad that they came by, don't get him wrong, but they usually only came by to do one of three things: 1. tell him that something was going very very wrong, 2. tell him that something was going very very right and 3. tell him to do something that would upend his entire way of life.

So of course the universe said: "Hello, is there a Mr. Choi Yeonjun here? I have a delivery of "The Universe's Hate" fresh from the factory. Just please sign here and here and you'll get your life's worth of shit."

Guess which option Yeonjun got.

Of course he got the the third one, when he'd happily accept the second and would be able to tolerate the first.

His parents were trying to ease the topic into the conversation, but it wasn't working at all, as it only made Yeonjun more scared and unsettled at what the hell his parents were making him do this time.

So, he told them to cut to the chase.

And they did.

Oh, how they did.

They told Yeonjun straight up that he'd have to get married.

And also to someone he doesn't know yet.

And also he needed to get to know them and get married to them within a single month.

But hey, at least they respected Yeonjun's sexuality and agreed that he'd get married to a man.

As if that made it better.

Yeonjun wanted to throw himself out of the window and into traffic right then and there.

But of course, he didn't — he just sat there like a good little son and said "Yes" and "Mhhmm" and "Got it" to everything that needed those responses.

But he was seething inside.

Oh he was seething inside.

And in internal anger, he formulated a plan to get out of it.

After he finally got his parents out of his apartment, Yeonjun immediately went to tell the news (and his plan) to his one and only best friend, Choi Beomgyu.
