give my heart a chance

"Your mom called me this evening." Stopped for a while then the voice continued to speak. "I told her you're going to be a dad."

"No, you not?"

"She was really happy." A wide cute smile appeared on the pretty lips. "Congratulations. I hope your child will be a boy. He will get your nice look."

"No, don't tell me you're going to say-"

"Our love is like this ring..." The brown crystal eyes looked down on the left hand, where there was a ring bringing the cold feeling of metal to the ring finger, and let out a slight smile. Then the right hand reached the left one, took the ring out and put it on the table between the two sitting guys, and spun it. "...swirling over and over. We have no idea when it will stop."

"Unless," After looking at the ring for a moment, the right hand suddenly seized the spinning ring as the words continued, "one of us stop it like this."

"What do you mean...?"

"The ring has stopped, now it's our love's turn."

"No, Junkyu. Please, no..."

That morning, the sky seemed clearer than usual. There was a brown-haired boy walked out of a coffee shop with a relieved smile on his face.

-

"Back to Earth, Kim Junkyu!" The impatient voice pulled Junkyu's mind back from wandering somewhere. "Don't tell me you still think about that guy?"

The question flabbergasted Junkyu for a second. He then let out a smile at the moment he realized who his friend mentioned.

"Yes and no. Instead of saying that I'm thinking about him, it would be better to say I'm worried for his wife more."

"Why do you mean?"

"I mean, he cheated on me to be with her. He totally can go back to his old way. This time, the one who would get hurt is his wife."

"So what? Why do you have to worry for her? She made your happiness collapse. Don't you remember?"

Junkyu did not answer the question right away. He turned his face toward the big glass window and closed his eyes. Junkyu let the honey-colored sunlight dance on his face while enjoying the light breeze blowing made his eyelashes quiver slightly.

"How could I forget about it? But Jihoon ah, I know how much it hurts when the one we love betrays us. I was once mad at her, but now I just feel sorry for her. It's not real happiness she's having. Anything that was stolen from others will never bring us happiness."

Jihoon, who was surprised at the answer he got, somehow felt relief in his heart. He was concerned the hurt from the last break-up would be too much for his best friend to handle. But at that moment, when he looked at his face, the calm and peacefulness in his eyes and smile told him not to worry anymore. He knew, his friend finally completely let it go.

"That's what she deserves."

"You're so savage."

"It's the way I always am. Now let's talk about you."

"What about me do you mean?"

"That guy in the studio you're working in."

Jihoon asked with his eyes glued to Junkyu's face. He wanted to see how his friend would react when he suddenly brought up "that person" in their conversation. And his goal was archived. A soft smile started to appear on his face. Unlike the previous smile of relief and peace, he could feel the shyness and tenderness in this smile now. The calm look in his eyes changed into a sparkled and full of love one.

To be honest, Jihoon felt jealous. It took him almost two years to make his best friend feel better, but that person just needed a few months and could get Junkyu to genuinely smile when he just heard his name.

"We're friends. He's really good to me."

"Friends?" Jihoon raised his brow at Junkyu's words.

"Yeah. What's with your attitude? Ah, we're going to watch a movie tonight. Do you wanna join? Bring your boyfriend too."

"He's still traumatized by the last time we watched a horror movie at the cinema. Have a nice date."

Junkyu did not notice the last word in Jihoon's statement since he was focusing on his phone to reply to a message. And of course, he had no idea about what Jihoon whispered after that.

"I don't think you're friends anymore, my dummy Kyu."

-

"Hi, sorry for making you wait. How long have you been here? Has the movie started yet?"

"No, it's not. Calm down or else you will get dyspnea." Seeing Junkyu had to say in between short breaths, the guy who was sitting at a table in the waiting area helped him to sit down and put his hand on Junkyu's back to tap on it.

"How can you know I like sprite?" While getting back to the normal speed of breath, Junkyu noticed two big cups of sprite on the table. He actually prepared himself to receive a cup of cola as everyone would choose it instead of a sprite. So the appearance of the sprite cups surprised him.

"Oh, I've bought us drinks and popcorn. I don't know why but I got the feeling of sprite rather than cola so I bought it. Hope you like it." After making sure Junkyu was fine, the guy sat back in his seat opposite Junkyu's and passed one of the drinks to Junkyu.

That was the first time Junkyu felt comfortable at the cinema. Everything was too good to be true. He never liked to go outside of his house, even with his ex-boyfriend. That guy did not for once ask what Junkyu liked, just did everything on his own decision.

The first person who knew that he preferred sprite rather than cola was his best friend Jihoon, the second was this guy he just had a so-called movie date with.

The first person who knew he could easily get cold was his mom, the second was this guy who always checked on him during the movie and even wanted to give him his hoodie and just wear a t-shirt. But Junkyu was not a selfish person, how could he feel comfortable and warm when his date-partner was cold?

The thing that happened next was what he never could expect. After he refused to take his t-shirt, he suddenly felt his hand get warmer. He tried to understand what was happening, he realized the guy had taken his hand and put it inside his hoodie pocket.

Junkyu thought he could explode right at that moment. That was the first time ever had a chance to experience that thing. He found it so romantic and loving and caring, but his ex never did it for him. He said it was cheesy and weird.

Junkyu had to admit that he had already fallen for this guy. But the hurt from being betrayed in the last relationship made him scared to open up his heart again to receive love from anyone.

But seeing how good this guy was, how he cared for him in every little thing, and how he always put him on the first priority, all of that made Junkyu come up with a final decision: he wanted to be with this guy. He wanted to give his heart a second chance to feel happy.

"How was the movie? Did you enjoy it? Are you cold? Do you need warm bags?"

"I'm good." Junkyu smiled to reassure him that he was fine. Looking at how this guy worried for him was like warm milk overflowing in his heart.

"Can I hold your hand?" Junkyu asked him.

"My hand? Yes, of course. Why? Do you feel cold?" The guy immediately took Junkyu's hand and tightly held it trying to make it warm.

"Look. The moon is beautiful, isn't it?" Junkyu also tightened their hands as he used his other hand to point up to the sky and said.

"It is." The guy followed Junkyu's finger and slightly nodded.

"Jeongwoo ya, do you know what it means?"

Junkyu turned around to look at the guy and was surprised that he was also looking at him.

"I love you."

"Can you be mine?"

"My wish."
