The sun is beginning to set, casting a golden hue over the neatly kept cemetery.
Seungcheol and Jeonghanwalk side by side down a gravel path, a bouquet of white lilies in Seungcheol's hand, a picnic basket in Jeonghan's.
They approach two gravestones, side by side, marked with the names of Seungcheol's parents.
"This is where they're buried." Seungcheol said softly.
Jeonghan ooks at the gravestone, which is simple but elegant. It reads: "In Loving Memory of Choi Sanghee and Choi Whonsik"
"They look like they were wonderful people." Jeonghan whispered.
Seungcheol kneels down, placing the flowers carefully in front of the gravestones. He runs his fingers over the engraved names, as he takes a deep breath.
"Mom, Dad... I've brought someone special with me today. This is Jeonghan." He said quietly.
"It's an honor to meet you both." Jeonghan said as he kneeled next to Seungcheol.
"Mom said whenever I met the one, she wanted to have a family picnic with them." Seungcheol said as Jeonghan helped him lay out the blanket infront of the graves.
"Looks like you are getting your wish mom." Seungcheol smiled as he looked at his mother's grave.
A moment of silence passed before Seungcheol spoke up again. "I haven't been here in a while. It's... hard. But I wanted you to meet them, Jeonghan. They were everything to me." He said to his boyfriend.
"I'm glad you brought me." Jeonghan smiled.
"After mom died in that car crash. My dad... he couldn't handle losing her. He passed away not long after." Seungcheol said as Jeonghan placed a hand over Seungcheol's.
"You don't have to talk about it if you don't want too." Jeonghan said as Seungcheol sighed and shook his head.
"No, it's okay. I want to. They were the reason I ended up in this life after all. After they passed away, I felt lost. I got pulled into the world of crime, thinking it was the only way to survive and protect what was left of my family." Seungcheol said.
"And that's how we met." Jeonghan said as Seungcheol nodded.
"Yeah." Seungcheol said. "Out of all that darkness, something good came. Meeting you... it gave me a reason to keep going, to find some light in all this." He added.
"You've done so much, Seungcheol. And you're still doing it. And as messed up as it sounds considering our line of work, your parents would be proud." Jeonghan said.
"I hope so. I wish they could have met you, Jeonghan. They would have loved you." Seungcheol smiled sadly.
"And I would have loved them, just like I love you." Jeonghan said, turning to look at the gravestones.
"I promise to love him with everything I have Mrs and Mr. Choi." Jeonghan whispered as he squeezed Seungcheol's hand.
