i just love crying while listening to miracles in december
speaking of exo , love shot is the offspring of growl and the eve whereas lotto is the parent of the music video
and before i forget , this is in the point of view of youngjin a.k.a the reader

' if a boy ever says, you remind me of someone — don't fall in love with him. you will never be anything more than second best . '

if only i had heeded that warning , i wouldn't be where i am at the moment , stuck in front of the house that belongs to the boy that once owned my heart .

it was only a month ago that he gave it back to me , only difference was that mine was in two pieces .

" i no longer know what i can tell you . " that's what he told me so i spoke on behalf of what remained of us .

" it's okay. i know what we are — and what we aren't . " with those words , we parted on our own ways with nothing but the memories that continued to linger .

if i had forseen the ending of our story , i would never taken most of my time to prepare a present for him .

it would be a waste to throw it out so i gathered up the courage to give him this last piece of me .

not only for my sake but for the both of us .

' just knock on the door and leave it on the steps . ' my inner conflict only grew with each minute that ticked by .

' but it's more polite to give it to him personally and so he'll know who it is from . ' before the fight could take a higher point , the door suddenly opened with no warning .

standing right in front of me was jaemin , the boy who left a bruise from which i have yet to recover .

his face overflowed with confusion at the sight of me, " you're not the mailman. . . "

his comment made something bubble up inside of me , as if i wanted to release a snide reply but i held my tongue .

" i got a delivery here for a na jaemin, if he still lives here . " it took him a few seconds to process my words before it sunk in .

" you already know it's me so why do you act like we're strangers ? " letting out a small dry laugh , i let my heart take control over my words .

" because we no longer are anything to each other , we're just people who don't know each other . " for a second , i swore that i could see hurt swirl in his eyes but i paid no mind to it .

after all , the only reason i was here was to deliver the gift which i fulfilled so there was nothing left to do or say .

as i began my journey back to my dorm , i heard him call my name once more .

it was my turn to ask the questions, " what do you need na jaemin ? to break my heart once more for your pride ? "

" i wanted to know if we could start all over again . " my brow raised at his request with my heart and mind clashing against each other.

" tell me why should i even listen to you . " he took a few steps forward whereas i went backwards in order to mantain the distance between us .

" because you would have walked away from me , even after i called your name yet here you are , standing right in front of me . " he had a point , i could have just walked away but i decided to stay .

all because my stupid heart still left part of it open for him .

" so what do you say ? can we go back to the beginning ? " letting my underlying feelings get the better of me , i accepted his offer since i knew the truth .

i knew that no matter what , he was the only one who could colour my world that was once black and white .

" hello there !! my name is na jaemin and you remind me of someone . " hearing those words once more opened up the wound that had yet to heal .

i frowned and tried to walk away but he grabbed my arm and turned my body towards him , leaving me to stare into his deep brown eyes .

" you look like my present and future
. " for the first time in what seemed like years , a smile appeared on my face from the cheesiness and sincerity of his words .

" well it seems like a pure coincidence that has fallen from the sky . " his smile broadened with the twinkle in his eyes shining brighter than the stars .

" you might call it a coincidence but i call it a miracle . " my brow furrowed at his words as i tried to grasp the meaning .

" and why would you call it that ? " all he did was stare in my eyes before answering ,

" because you brought the spring to my winter . "
