"Why are you taking so long?"

"No! I don't want that show! Change it!"

"What the– WHY ARE YOU TAKING MY PHONE?! FUCKING GIVE ME THAT!"

"UGHH!!! FUCK YOU!"

"Angel, I'm watching. Don't fucking disturb my ass off."

"Will you just stop? I'm trying to sleep here."

"LEAVE ME ALONE!"

Those and many hundreds more phrases were the ones Yongbok has to endure while taking very best care of his boyfriend for two or three weeks now. It was stressful but he couldn't let it show in his face that he's being affected, as the doctor says. They said don't let whatever words that come out of Hyunjin get in him because they didn't mean them.

And that was Yongbok trying to hold on to keep his chin up, gripping with all his might.

Because if he doesn't hold onto it... then...

But yeah, anyway.

Apparently, Yongbok was doing his best — like the usual days — to not get pissed by his lover's nuisances and kept his calm facade together as he can while persuading Hyunjin to drink a shake the doctor suggested for him to take while on the strict diet.

"Hun please. You need to take this shake."

"FUCK NO! Why don't you drink it yourself? It taste like all shitty vegetables thrown together to torture a victim." Hyunjin grumbled in extreme annoyance. Note you all, it's just 6 in the fucking morning and Hyunjin is already in a bad mood to bad mouth.

"Stop overreacting, please. You need to drink this already. I'm gonna be late for work."

Hyunjin faced him. "Wait, you're not watching me over today?"

"It's wednesday, hun."

"So?"

"What do you mean? Wednesday is not part of the day I compensated with Chef Jin for work leave."

"Tsk." Hyunjin's face darkened more.

"I still have work, hun. I can't just snitch my work to...."

"To what? Take care of me? Are you tired of taking care of your boyfriend now?" Hyunjin's tone is rising again.

"No, hun. That's... You know that's not what–"

"Fine, whatever. Who's stopping you? Go." Hyunjin turned his head to the front, his jaw clenched and his eyebrow was lifted.

"But your shak–"

"I SAID GO! I'll fucking drink that later."

Yongbok should've gotten used to Hyunjin's yelling now by the amount of times Hyunjin has done the same thing to him for weeks. But he still hasn't. He still flinches and gets teary. Deep inside, he just chanted mantras of "He didn't mean it. He didn't mean it. He didn't mean it" just to make up for his feelings.
"O-Okay. Bye hun. I love you." He leaned down to Hyunjin and kissed him on the cheek.

But as usual, he never gets close to the lips again.

"Hm." Hyunjin simply hummed his reply, not even bothering to say I love you back to his boyfriend.

Wow. Early in the morning and this is the treatment Yongbok already got.

A deep but shaky exhale was the last thing he did before taking his leave from the hospital. He drove to Wangjok, with his eyes watery and cloudy. Good thing he didn't get into an accident despite the danger he just have done. He still reached his workplace safely... but not happily.
