MIN-JOON'S FOOTSTEPS echoed softly against the pavement as he wandered aimlessly through the city streets. Thoughts swirled in his mind like a tempest, each memory of Suoh a turbulent wave crashing against the shores of his consciousness.
He couldn't pinpoint the exact moment when his feelings for Suoh had shifted, evolving from friendship into something deeper, something more profound. It felt like an eternity since he had viewed Suoh as anything other than a cherished companion, a constant presence in his life.
But as he replayed the events of the past few hours in his mind, Min-Joon couldn't ignore the truth staring back at him. He was in love with Suoh, had been for longer than he cared to admit. Yet, he had buried those feelings deep within himself, afraid of the consequences they would bring.
His conflicted emotions swirled within him like a raging storm, tearing at the fragile facade of his composure. On one hand, he cherished their friendship and the bond they shared. On the other, he longed for something more, something that lay just beyond his reach.
The revelation of Suoh's plan to orchestrate Mei-Li's infidelity had struck a chord within Min-Joon, stirring a mixture of admiration and concern. He couldn't deny the allure of Suoh's yearning, the depth of emotion that lay beneath his seemingly carefree facade.
But he also understood the dangers of their codependency, the potential for harm that lurked beneath the surface. As Suoh grew and changed, Min-Joon couldn't help but fear the inevitable shift in their dynamic, the distance that would inevitably grow between them.
And yet, despite his apprehensions, Min-Joon couldn't shake the feeling of longing that tugged at his heartstrings. He knew that he had to confront his feelings, to lay bare the truth that had long been hidden beneath layers of denial and self-deception.
Min-Joon didn't like it. So he vowed to never tell Suoh about his feelings and when Mei-Li asked him to help her gain Zane's attention he couldn't help but agree.
That's right, Mei-Li never liked Min-Joon, she just wanted Zane to notice her and it worked thanks to Suoh and his feelings for Min-Joon which Mei-Li seemed to notice before Min-Joon did.
Min-Joon groaned, running a hand through his hair as he watched his reflection through the glass from the window. His eyes scanned the area, then he ventured inside.
"Min-Joon." a deep voice called his name. Min-Joon nodded at the person before him. "Xiang." He said. "What brings you here? You haven't been here since Jayce left for Japan." Xiang Li said, tilting his head.
Min-joon turned his head, "Can we...talk? It's about Suoh."
Xiang Li blinked, the older male sighed nodding at the empty table. "Sit there, I'll be out in a minute."
Min-Joon nodded, sitting down at the empty table and leaning back on the chair, his arms crossed as his eyes ventured around the inside of the cafe. "So, wanna tell me what happened?" Xiang asked, grabbing the chair and sitting down.
