My Sacrifice

"I can't live without her," Hyunjin said while balling his eyes out crying. "I know it's hard to accept but you have to move on," Changbin said while consoling his distraught best friend. "Actually, there is a way to revive her," Changbin's boyfriend Felix suddenly said. He was apparently busy with his phone searching the net for whatever when he suddenly remembered what his friend Jisung told him about shaman's being able to revive the dead.

"Are you serious?" Hyunjin exclaimed. "Well, you see Jisung's boyfriend Minho died and he hired some shaman to revive him," Felix started. "I was with him when the ritual was performed and saw Minho revived with my own two eyes." he continued. "Let's say that it's possible baby, where do you propose us to find a shaman at this modern age?" Changbin questioned. "I think I have an address here somewhere," Felix said rummaging inside his wallet. "Oh! Found it, here," he said handling a piece of paper over to Hyunjin.

I know this address...

"Aren't you going to the wake? She's your best friend's girlfriend, right?" Seungmin said as he sat beside a lying Jeongin on his bed. "First, you are my best friend; second, I know your single and you don't like girls at all," Jeongin retorted. "It's been like what, two years? Haven't you moved on from him yet?" Seungmin said with a sigh. "I know I'm being pathetic, but he was my person, he was my everything," Jeongin replied.

"Innie, everything will be easier if you just find someone who loves you the way that you should be loved," Seungmin said. "I know, thank you for putting up with me," Jeongin said as he reached for Seungmin's hand lightly squeezing, and then placing a soft kiss on it. "I'll wait for you until you're ready," Seungmin said placing a kiss on Jeongin's forehead.

It was mid-day when they received some unexpected guest. Seungmin opened the door and was greeted by a smiling stupidly freckled boy. "Do I know you?" Seungmin asked confused. "No, but I'm looking for a certain shaman," Felix answered. Seungmin squinted his eyes when he noticed the person a.k.a Hyunjin standing behind the freckled boy. "We don't know any shaman, you got the wrong house," he said with as much venom as he could muster. He was about to slam the door on their faces when Hyunjin stopped it, "Please, I really need help," he said.

"Minnie baby what's taking you too long," Jeongin said approaching the said boy giving him a back hug. "Who are you talking to?" he added but froze on the spot when he laid his eyes on Hyunjin. "No one important," Seungmin answered finally slamming the door shut.

He immediately faced Jeongin afterwards and checked if he's okay. "I'm fine; I just didn't expect to see him after 2 years"

I was February 04, 2016; Jeongin can still remember clearly how he suddenly had the courage to tell Hyunjin that he likes him via text.

Innie

I need to tell you something.

Jinnie

What's it about?

Innie

I think I like like you. I know you're straight and all and I'm not expecting anything.

I just felt the need to get this out of my chest.

I'll accept it if you don't want to be friends with me anymore.

I'll avoid you if that is what you want.

The next day Jeongin deliberately avoided Hyunjin and the latter did the same, until...
