"Hong Jisoo." Joshua stumbled his way to the front of the line. What is he even doing here, at the immigration office?
He was applying for a visa, to leave Korea forever. All because of one boy. His name? Yoon Jeonghan. The love of his life was getting married to another person. That person was his Noona, Hong Ji-Eun. After getting his documents back with the approval (a/n Irdk how immigration for immigrants work), he went outside. His phone rang, notifying him of a call from Ji-Eun.
"Hi, Noona!" Joshua tried to make his voice sound happy.
"Joshua, you've been acting weird since I announced I was getting married." Ji-Eun said in concern. "Everything okay?"
"Noona, listen." Joshua began. "I'm moving to Germany tomorrow."
"WHAT? WHY?" Ji-Eun shouted.
"Because..." The younger hesitated. "Promise you won't hate me?"
"Promise."
"I'm in love with Jeonghan. I'm moving away to move on from him." Joshua said. He hoped against hope he wouldn't start crying now. "I loved him since we were fifteen. But when you and him announced you were dating, my heart was crushed, and so we're my hopes of ever having him love me back. Noona, promise me you'll take care of him for me?"
"I promise." Ji-Eun sounded like she was crying.
"Do you hate me?" Joshua asked in a timid voice.
"N-no!" Ji-Eun took Joshua by surprise. "No, Josh, I don't hate you."
"I have to go now, Noona." Joshua said, taking out his keys to the apartment.
"Bye, Jisoo-ah."
"Bye Noona."

"Hi, are you new to Germany?" Joshua was surprised to see a Korean boy standing in front of him, speaking Korean.
"Y-yes." Joshua stuttered. This boy was insanely beautiful. Almost as beautiful as Jeonghan. Joshua thought.
"Hey, are you alright?" The boy waves his hand in front of his face. "I'm Y/N, by the way."
"Joshua." Joshua smiled, shaking the boys outstretched hand. "I came here to study, and to get away from my insanely miserable love life."
"I-if you don't mind me asking, what happened?" Y/N asked cautiously. "I-I'm sorry! I shouldn't have asked!"
"It's okay." Joshua said. "Long story short, I fell for my best friend, he's marrying my sister text week."
"Ouch." Y/N mumbled. "Well, hope to see you again!"
"Can I-" Joshua hesitated. "May I have your number?"
"Oh yeah, sure." Y/N typed his number into Joshua's phone and departed with a wave and a smile, Joshua reciprocating the actions.

"My thoughts were right, then." Y/N chuckled, having finished helping Joshua with his boxes. "I'm happy you have someone you know here, though. I mean me."
"Me too." Joshua grinned. "Anyway, thanks for helping."
Was this the start of a new friendship, or something more?
That's for another story.
