Beomgyu had always believed that love could conquer all. His relationship with Yeonjun was a testament to that belief, a beacon of hope amidst the chaos of life. They were dating, and for Beomgyu, Yeonjun was his world. However, the love he cherished came at a cost that he had never anticipated.

From the beginning, Beomgyu's friends had warned him about the dangers of getting involved with someone still haunted by the ghosts of a past lover. Yeonjun, though sweet and caring, was stuck in the memories of his previous relationship. The one he had lost, the one who had left a permanent scar on his heart. Beomgyu ignored the warnings, convinced that his love would be enough to heal Yeonjun's wounds.

But as the months passed, Beomgyu found himself drowning in a sea of pain and heartache. Yeonjun's affection was often overshadowed by moments of drunken despair, where he would call out for his past lover, inadvertently shattering Beomgyu's heart each time. One fateful night, Yeonjun came home drunk, uttering words that cut Beomgyu deeper than any knife. He spoke of his old love, confessing that no one could ever compare, that the past was where his heart truly belonged.

Beomgyu's world crumbled that night. Yet, despite the unbearable pain, he chose to stay. His friends questioned his decision, unable to understand why he would endure such suffering. They asked him how he could stay so long, how he could bear the ache in his heart. Beomgyu's answer was always the same: "Because I love him. I'll stay as long as he doesn't tell me to leave. I will bear the pain because my heart can't take the thought of leaving him."

Days turned into months, and the weight of his unrequited love grew heavier. Beomgyu continued to suffer in silence, his heart breaking a little more each day. He held on to the hope that one day, Yeonjun would let go of his past and see the love standing right in front of him. But as time went on, the question loomed larger in his mind: how long could he endure this agony? Until he was completely shattered?
