The room is cozy, with posters of constellations on the walls. Beomgyu and Huening Kai sat cross-legged on the floor, a colorful deck of UNO cards spread out between them.

Just as Beomgyu was about to triumphantly declare 'blue', his phone buzzed.

He glanced at the screen- It was a message from Yeonjun.

"Hyung, your turn"

"Oh? Yeah right, yellow..." Beomgyu spoke, distracted.

Sometimes he wished life came with instructions like UNO...

Beomgyu waves back at Huening Kai's retreating figure, closes the door, plops down on the couch and finally looks at his phone.

Right. The message.

Yeonjun

Hey?

I hope this message finds you well.
I've spent several hours replaying our encounter in that restaurant.
And I've come to realize that my actions were thoughtless and hurtful.

Bomgyu, you deserve better. You deserve someone who doesn't stumble over their own emotions. I am deeply sorry for all the pain I caused you.

But, I value you a lot. You aren't someone who wants me just for popularity. You're someone who wants me for me.

Can you find it in your heart to forgive me?

                                    5:24

Beomgyu

                                    5:26

Yeonjun

....I tried ok?

Can you find it in your heart to forgive me? <<<
...

Beomgyu

I'll try to..

However, trust is a different matter

Yeonjun

I know trust takes time, and I'm willing to wait

And I promise to be more mindful

Everyone deserves a second chance right?

                                        5:34

Beomgyu

Bye yeonjun

Yeonjun
