~3 YEARS LATER~

Hyunjin and Yongbok honestly they couldn't believe just how fast the earth spun and the clock ticks because the last thing they remember, they're still dealing with Hyunjin's needs to heal his surgery and to finish the remaining cycles for his excruciating therapies.

And now, he's two years done from that.

It wasn't an easy journey but Hyunjin successfully managed to get through it so bravely, fighting the best he could to stay healthy and live long for Yongbok. 

This morning, the couple decided to do their daily morning jogs around the block. The exercise helped Hyunjin a lot to strengthen his weakened lungs and to bring him back to a healthy lifestyle. Some days, they would do cardio exercises as a bonding.

Ever since he settled himself to this kind of lifestyle, Hyunjin felt the huge difference from before.
Now, he is more active. He is healthier. He is happier and livelier. Finally being free from his medications and therapies got him to promise on living a healthy life afterwards.

Yongbok couldn't be any prouder for his boyfriend seeing his huge improvement.

The confidence Hyunjin has now is a huge jump from three years ago. Now that he grew his hair back, that got his chin up high for everyone to admire. His body also grew a few muscles from here and there, just enough to be perfectly aligned with his body proportions.

There would be times Yongbok just found himself drooling over Hyunjin's sexiness. The aura that lingers around him is just too powerful and beautiful. And he was glad to be able to see the progress of Hyunjin's immaculate breakthrough.

Other than this good news, Hyunjin has achieved some wishes from his bucket list like attending the pride parade, going to club and have fun (because the last time he went to a club, it was not a sight-full to see), travel to beaches and do skinny dipping with Yongbok, having a tattoo of an Angel's halo and wings with letters H×Y on his wrist, try piercings, and try feminine clothings to explore his inner androgyny.

And with all those wishes, Yongbok has been fully supportive of him.

The older also had freelance jobs now. He'd sometimes take commission for painting or being a photographer for commercial photoshoots. He feels better now that he doesn't have to be a burden and doesn't entirely rely on Yongbok's money. He could also serve something on the table and he's proud of himself for that.

To summarize it all, Hyunjin has finally learned to live his life to the fullest and make the most of it, eventually finding the spark of his life.

However, not everything has turned positive. Even after three years, Hyunjin still hasn't heard Samuel, Yin or Yang coming back to his head. It has been three years since his head has completely been quiet. Hyunjin was already losing hope they'll come back.

But going back to their current situation, Hyunjin and Yongbok took a halt from their jogging and good thing, there was a bench nearby to have a seat on. They rested their asses and catch for their breaths, especially Hyunjin who is two times spent than Yongbok. Although he is out of the therapy, it's still a risk to push boundaries of what's Hyunjin's lungs are just capable of. Nonetheless, the strength of his lungs are becoming better everyday together with his stamina.

"Do you want water?" Yongbok asked the older.

"Yes please."

Yongbok bolted to the nearest convenient store he saw and bought water bottles and energy drinks for them. After purchasing, he runs back to their bench to quench their thirst.

Yet to his surprise, there was already a strange man beside Hyunjin and conversing with his boyfriend, occupying his spot. And what's weird is Hyunjin was actually having fun talking to the guy, not shooing him or cursing him away like how he usually does when somebody tries to come his way.
