"How is it going between you and Hannie?" Seokmin asked.

"Well, it's good and by the way, it's Jisung for you."

"I'm asking if any development is there in your relationship, you jealous ass!!"

"Well, he trust me now and is more vocal about his needs and opinions than we first met. So, yeah! Developments definitely are there."

"And did you confess?"

"Confess what?"

"Minho!!" Seokmin sternly said.

"I didn't get a perfect time, okay? It's not very simple. He doesn't even love himself. How will I prove it to him that I love him? We were talking about something a month back and he said that he has nothing to offer for somebody to love him. Min, I need to make him love himself before I confess. He should know that he deserves everything."

"And what are you doing for that?"

"I don't know, honestly. I've started being more vocal about his positive attributes. I'm sure someone has dumped those shitty thoughts in his head so I'm trying to counter them with positive thoughts. I'm trying to tell him at every moment given that the things he is insecure about are the things that I love the most about him."

"Look, Minho. While I admire what you're doing but here's a suggestion. From what I understood, he thinks that he is unlovable. Let him know that you love him WITH those insecurities. Rather than trying to make him forget his insecurities, show him things you're insecure about because our imperfections are what makes us human."

"Min, my man has a walnut sized brain in his head. If I tell him that I love him, he'll think that I'm saying that as an obligation just because we're married."

"Minho, you liked him from way before your marriage. You saw him like 2 years  ago for the first time and still fell for him!!

"Min, before Hannie, I need to confess to you." Minho said awkwardly after hearing the last sentence from him friend.

"Excuse me??? I have a wife, you bastard."

"Dafuq?? I didn't - are you crazy? I didn't mean that kind of confession. What the hell?"

"Then what?"

"Actually it's 8."

"What?"

"It has been 8 years since I first saw him."

"WHATTT???" Seokmin literally stood up from his chair violently making the chair fall.

"Sit down, you idiot. People are looking." Minho covered his face with his left hand and whispered.

"Why do I not know this?"

"Because what would I tell? I had no clue about his name or whereabouts. The first time I saw him was probably when I went to collect my certificates and other documents after completion of high school. He was a new comer probably. I briefly saw him sitting alone in the ground on the bench scribbling something on his notepad. His focused face has not changed ever since by the way. He still sticks out his tongue slightly when focused."

"Then? Judging by how you said "the first time", you saw him more than twice in last 8 years."

"I am not gonna go in the details but yes, I saw him for about 5 times before marriage, including the last time I saw him on the train and everytime I saw him was whenever I was down or hopeless. His charming face or adorable expressions would always lighten me up. "

"5 times and still you can't prove it to him that you don't love him out of obligation. Are you stupid or are you stupid?? Minho, just say you're scared."
