Hyunjin knows he's really sensitive. It had been the main topic to bully him about. He could just be watching a mildly sad film and he would be crying rivers.
He even considered that there could be an entire waterwork system behind his eyes.
If that is true, then the waterworks broke loose and he's shedding enough tears to rival the Pacific Ocean.
Whatever Hyunjin was able to decipher from Seungmin's grammatical errors and handwriting, hit him hard.
It hit home.
Hyunjin has been through it.
The same urge to impress people just to get tangled in dreams that aren't even his. Letting people live through you just so you wouldn't disappoint them, Hyunjin knew how it felt. Or at least the numerous pillow covers and the depressing ceiling of his room knew how Hyunjin felt.
And apparently Seungmin has too. Just that, in his case, he had no other choice than to bend to the rules and give in to his responsibilities. While Hyunjin had a choice, he chose to work harder to make everyone around him understand that he wasn't entirely worthless.
But at the end of the day, they both were just exhausted boys trying to cope with the fast running world.
Hyunjin felt calm. He felt at ease.
He still didn't know who or what Kim Seungmin was. A phantom? A guardian-angel?
They both seemed like plausible options but Hyunjin went with Seungmin words– soulmate.
He could almost visibly see the weight being lifted off of him. He was never the fault of Seungmin's disappearance. This library, Hyunjin thought, was the place he first saw Seungmin and this must be the place he was supposed to see him at last.
Hyunjin, for a while, selfishly thought that he could have spent a lifetime with Seungmin if he hadn't stepped into the library.
But Seungmin had fulfilled whatever he was supposed to do. He made most of Hyunjin's happiness, something that Hyunjin thought he wouldn't be able to feel.
Hyunjin still had many questions, but some questions were better left unanswered.
He didn't need to worry much though.
Seungmin was a man of principles and he'd never break his promise.
He never did.
He was here, always.
