...
Yuta was lying on the rug and watching the ceiling while Taeyong was chewing some crisps.
"Has your mother called?" asked Taeyong.
"Yes," muttered Yuta.
"Have you picked up?" Taeyong put the bowl aside.
"No," Yuta was lying still.
"Maybe you should it's been four years of silence," muttered Taeyong. "She would be happy to hear your voice."
"No, I don't want to hear how upset she is," Yuta sat up. "She hates me."
"No she only hates the choice you've made," said Taeyong.
"It's my life not hers," Yuta's cheeks became red.
"I know, if parents would accept all our dreams, or us..." Taeyong sighed.
"Would be an ideal world," Yuta had irony in his voice.
"And what about her?" Taeyong changed the subejct.
"Lauren?" Yuta pressed the name out like something very painful. "I don't know, I just pass her in corridors from time to time," he said.
"Do you miss her?" asked Taeyong.
"Nah, she's a slut," Yuta laid down again and took a deep breath. "The room is so empty without her," he muttered.
"I guess she would come back if you asked I heard she's still single."
"Yes told the whole school how great in bed this loser is, never said that about me," muttered Yuta.
"Oh she was with you for two years, I guess she enjoyed it," Taeyong tried to cheer him up and Jae shivered.
"Maybe I don't want her back," said Yuta.
"Why?" Taeyong turned to him.
"Maybe I'd like to have them both," Yuta sighed again.
"What?" Taeyong laughed.
"Sicheng is so beautiful, he looks like my favorite actress, and there is something that was missing between me and Lauren. I feel safe beside him, I can't explain it. I could hurt her it never mattered that much but I can't imagine hurting him. Maybe it's because he's a boy too," Yuta was so sad and Taeyong watched him seriously.
"You see I had it better, a girlfriend who wanted me, and it was nice to forget reality in her body but now she's gone too, and the funny thing is it's because of him," Yuta continued. He bit his lower lip for a moment like if he was processing something very painful. "You don't know, no one knows that when kindergarten started he made fun of my eyes shape, because they were different. I just moved over barely knew the language, maybe Sicheng reminds me of myself a little," Yuta spoke quietly and Jae felt cold sweat, was he really talking about the person he thought he was talking about.
"And I really liked him, I wanted to be his friend because he was very smart, even back then, but because of him the rest of the kids laughed about my eyes too," Taeyong made a strange move like if a shiver went through him while Yuta kept talking. "I tried to become his friend and once asked him to come to my house to play, and he did and I guessed it will be good but the next day a new boy came to kindergarten, to me he was so ugly, fat with a swollen face and so clumsy, awful, in a horrible horizontal stripped shirt that made him look even fatter."
Yuta continued and Jae clenched his fists, yes he was fat in kindergarten and his mum made him wear stripped shirts a lot, but that description was way not on point.
Taeyong chuckled under his nose.
"I've seen his photos from this time, he was actually cute," he muttered.
Yuta raised his brows and his face said 'Are you kidding me?'
"I know you love him hopelessly and he's kind of... ok looking for you," Yuta shivered on these words. "Anyway, he came and immediately became friends whit Taeil. Like by an awful magical trick, and this rabbit like redhead joined them and they walked everywhere together, played only between the three of them. I remember like today when I wanted to join a mini car racing game and he told me to go and laughed about my eyes again and I left and played with myself. And then these idiots Johnny and Hasnol came and asked me to sit with them so I did. And now my girlfriend left me for him. Do you get this irony?" Yuta sat up again with his head low. "I never will be as good as him, he's super smart, got the scholarship, got a record deal without any problems, he has this magical voice, anyone who had heard him once knows he's a born singer, and now my girlfriend thinks he's better in bed than me," Taeyong coughed but left the comment for himself. "And I know I'm better at football than music and I left a safe career for a dream that might never become real, and my parents will never forgive me," Yuta finished and started to play with the edge of his sleeve, a little similar to the way Taeil did it when he was sad, and Jae trembled.
He moved back unable to listen anymore.
He reached the bedroom and sat on the bed inhaling sharply. Did Taeil remember that in kindergarten he rejected Yuta's friendship for him and Doyoung, no Taeil probably never realized what was the reason for the years of bulling they had suffered.
