Might not. Probably won't. Maybe never. Unlikely. Doubtful. Despite being everything he could have been, Elize constantly settled in the dark, lurking with the impossibles and uncertainties. He believed that he would grow up and take the path of life in a single route with one straight line; no turns, no shortcuts. Perhaps it was because his one and only flesh and blood prompted him to think that if he didn't act like how he was made and how he was supposed to be, he would never reach the light at the end of the tunnel, or never reach his dreams, never be accepted, never be treated seriously...never be loved. The word "Always" was never in Elize's vocabulary-an exception with always doubting, always trying, always...just dreaming. But never the good kind of "Always". Then he tasted it, the bittersweet sensation in his tongue when his mother left him to work abroad. Elize then started to thrive, meet new friends, socialize, be a human...fall in love. For the first time, Elize felt free, felt genuine, felt...guilty? Guilty...was it because he felt glad his mother left, or because he met someone that made him start to feel the Always' in his Nevers? Regardless, he dedicated his whole life in chasing that assurance in his world of doubts, and he simply could not back out now. But when good things come to an end, the choice is yours if you want to let it go, or fight for it. If you choose the latter, make sure to draw blood and fight until you're dead. Just like Elize did.

Jin has been in love with his best friend for ten years and spent five of those years in a relationship with him. But one day, he was forced to face the painful truth-those five years were nothing but a lie. Heartbroken and lonely, he throws himself into writing his new novel, determined to move on. However, his peace is constantly shattered by his next-door neighbor-a notorious player who brings different people over every night, filling the air with moans and humping sounds. Unable to focus and deprived of sleep, Jin reaches his breaking point. Frustrated and drunk, he storms over to confront his noisy neighbor, only to wake up the next morning in the man's bed. His head is pounding, his memories are hazy, and his body feels... different. Just what the hell happened last night? *** This story is a work of fiction.

But what if it had been built on deception from the very start?
