-a book based off the game 'gone home'.
"jinnie-hyung.. i'm so sorry i can't be here to welcome you home from your trip- but please. don't go digging around, to figure out where i am. i don't want anyone to know. we'll see eachother again. someday...
seokjin felt frantic now, quickly making his way up the staircase, swallowing as he turned on the hallways light. looking around, he could tell which was his room, by the contamination warning sign on his door. a light creeped from hnder the door. he knocked on the door, expecting some sort of indication that he was on there.
silence. silence.
he slowly opened the door, blinking at the test pattern being shown on the television- showing that something had been disconnected from it. he frowned, turning the light on to see that there was a lot missing. he couldn't look around much, as the only place he could was in the big locker on the wall between the bed and a closet. turning towards the dresser, which sat an almost giant stereo. he opened the first drawer; clothes, clothes, cassette tape. pushing it into the cassette compartment of the stereo and closing it, he pressed play before continuing his search.
(cool schmool by bratmobile.)
"we're so cool- yeah, yeah. fuck you! cool schmool!"
seokjin rose a brow at how obviously much jeongguk had grown since he'd been gone. most surprising that he listened to riot girl bands- someone had to have introduced him to it. looking down at the pile of pillows on the floor, there was a sheet of paper stuck under one. he pulled it straight from under.
hi joonie.
i wrote this in first period and left it in your locker on the way to second. it's what all the COOL KIDS are doing, i've decided. write me back. also here's an idea for something to draw : two cats on a motorcycle.
Hey this is a good idea. What all the cool kids are actually doing is sending eachother pages on their beepers. But, we're cooler than them because they can't put THIS on a beeper.

seokjin flipped the paper on the back, lips pursed in utmost concentration.
your drawing of cats was SO GOOD that i added a background to make it even better. maybe i should just stick to writing though.
Ha ha. I like it. How did you know they were about to be abducted by aliens? I'm looking at Mr. Min right now. I feel like he would probably have lots of cats. Also like, his secret shame is that he watches 90210 religiously. I'll ask him after class.
He said he doesn't have cats and aslo that he's never watched 90210, but I could see in his eyes that he was lying.

oh my god. you are SO lucky you finished highschool before we moved into this house. so, it's the first day of school and i'm introducing myself to the class, and i say that moved into the house on arbour hill. and EVERYONE just turns and stares at me like i grew another head! i just stood there, wishing so hard for a rewind button. cause now, maybe nobody knows my name, but they all know how i am. 'the psycho house boy'. great.
