-Alright, explain it to me again, Felix sat down in the library, leaning his back on a shelf.

-I have it from my aunt who had it from her husband who had it from his brother who had it from his grandpa and so on. It's been in the family since forever. Basically the one that dies passes on his curse to a loved one. I received it when I was 2 months old. Since then 400 years had passed, Jisung explained.

-What about grand grandma?

-I met Araeum long time ago. I loved her, but she didn't love me. She was happy with her husband. After her passing, I remained friends with him for a while. He found himself a new wife and I argued for disrespecting Araeum. I hated him for that.

-So you spent 400 years without any love shown towards you. Until Minho hyung appeared.

-That's right.

-Well, that-

Felix suddenly stopped when he heard a book hitting the floor.

-Who's there? he got up and looked around the corner.

He found Jeongin trying to pick up the book.

-Hello, hyung! he smiled awkwardly.

-Jeongin, you scared me, Felix let out a breath. What are you doing here?

-I was doing some research for uni. I'm taking some classes online in my free time.

-That's good.

-Hey, have you seen Seungmin? I'm afraid he got upset with me and I want to talk to him.

-I thought... I thought he was with you. He came yesterday, but I was busy with Changbin hyung. He didn't call me.

-I'm worried, Jeongin said with puppy eyes.

-I'll call his mom, Felix assured him. The moment I find him, I call you.

-Thank you, hyung! Jeongin bowed and exited the room, not before making a brief eye contact with Jisung.

-Sorry about that, Felix took a seat on the floor again.

-He heard us, Jisung said dead serious.

-What? Felix looked up at Jisung's distressed expression.

-He heard our conversation, he clenched his fist.

-I'm sure he thought we were talking nonsense. Or about a book.

-I don't trust him. This is the secret I held for years. I can't let any other person find out about me.

-Not even hyung? If you... If you happen to fail, will the curse go to hyung? Felix swallowed his fear.

-It's possible.

-Another reason to break it.




Hyunjin's apartment

-Hyung, you're here! Hyunjin dragged the older in his apartment and covered his eyes with his hands.

-Are you kidnapping me? the older joked.

-No, silly... I have a surprise for you. I'm so excited, I can't stay still!

-Are you sure it's not from the caffeine?

Chan kept on with the jokes just to make himself forget Hyunjin was so close to him. He felt his face burning under the touch of the taller's fingertips.

-Okay, you can look!

He unlocked his tangled fingers and let the light blind Chan for a bit before the older adjusted to the neon lights in the room. In front of him there were 3 paintings: different styles, different stories, but one common dominator: a man that looked like him.
