Chul Kyung had a rough past, with everything that happened in his life, in his family, the way he acts isn't surprising.

always hoping for a sign of light or happiness in his life but never finding any, always hoping too see a headlight in the dark path that he's been walking alone for so long, the darkness caused by the trauma he's been though.

but he'd never show it, and weirdly pushing away anyone shows any sign of wanting to know him more. a habit that he knows that he need to change but for now, he'll wait for someone who is willing to break down his wall, no matter how many times he built it back up, someone who will prove worthy and someone who proves that they'll stay.

and he's still wishing and waiting and little does he know, someone is waiting for him, in the darkness and all he needs to do, is keep walking forward, continue pushing on.

after he has met you, he knew that you were different, always doing one more step, going the distance for him. the little things you did ment the world to him.

checking up on him every now and then, making sure he's eating correctly, getting enough rest and simply living well.

"hey Chul Kyung, you feeling okay?" you asked and you say down beside him and let your legs dangle off the roof of Bartlet University.

"I'm good." he said, keeping his eyes on the distance. "You?"

You smiled as you nodded silently. the question seems like an easy one, but to you, it was progress, one step closer to getting Chul Kyung to open up to you.

the scene was rather calm, after clearing out the area, waiting for the helicopter to come. till then, you'll stay beside him in the comfortable silence.

"Do you know, how's it like to be lonely all your life?" he asked and he turned to face you, despite his mask on, you could see the slight pain and sadness in his eyes.

how would you reply to that, were you suppose to comfort him? or tell him you know how it feels?

"I made alot of mistakes, some that I deeply regret. and I don't want to make any more. but I don't know how to.." he said, looking into the distance once more.
"it's okay, at that time, you made the best option possible, and I'll be here, any doubts just let me know, I'll try my best to help."

taking the opportunity, you placed your hands on his shoulder and smiled at him, hoping to comfort him.

Chul Kyung looked at you, and slowly reached out to the back of his head and released his mask, letting it fall to his lap.
for once in your life, you saw his face, as you expected he was handsome, a few scars here and there but that didn't take away any beauty from him.

you slowly reached out to him, placing your hands on his cheeks as his gaze was still fixed on you. slowly using your thumb to rub his cheeks, over a scar that was there, he leaned into your touch, eyes closing.

"thank you." he said with his eyes still closed, "for staying and sticking with me, and accepting me. I appreciate it alot."

you removed your hands from his face and moved it to his shoulder and moved closer to him.

Chul Kyung looked back at you and leaned his forehead to yours. the both you had your eyes locked into each other.

"with you, I've become more accepting of my past, you helped me move on without leaving anything behind. and make me a better person, thank you so much." he said as he slowly wrapped his arms around you, pulling you closer.

at this point, the both of you are already hugging, sharing each other's warmth in this chilly weather.

"I'll be here, always." you spoke quietly.
