This Time, It Will Be Me

-Fantasy, Ancient/Past and Present, BL Story-

"So it really is romance! Make it a romantic comedy, portray it as your life! Though you haven't experience romance in your life, you do experience comedy."
"You are the comedian in my life! Do you want me to tell you or not?"
"Sorry! Please do tell!"

"It's from a dream of mine. An old dream. It's a dream about denial, about pretense, about gradually accepting, about still choosing that person, about sacrifice, about regret. It's a dream about longing, about not giving up but eventually letting go, about love. In other words, it's a bad ending or ambiguous if you wanted to see it that way too... You are suddenly quiet. Ah, you don't really like ambiguous ending, do you?" Kyu Hyeon asked with a grin on his face. The person on the other line inhaled deeply confusing him for a second, then he scoffed. "Ryeowoon, don't exaggerate your reaction. What do you think?"
"I think...it will be alright. The both of you will meet again."
"No, wait, you- you are affected?!" Kyu Hyeon laughed loudly at Ryeowoon's soft voice, completely forgetting that he is not alone in the elevator. One of the people standing behind him cleared their throat, it was his neighbor next door. He just remembered what he told Ryeowoon-that means his neighbor and his friend also heard him. Thankfully, they are now at the ground floor, just in time for him to be able to escape and maybe not see the said neighbor for a week. How about camping at work?

Kyu Hyeon bid them goodbye before hastily walking away, still embarrassed about what he was talking about. "Yu Ryeowoon! Look at what you made me do!" He hisses on his phone to the innocent Ryeowoon.

As Kyu Hyeon hastily walked away after getting out of the elevator, his neighbor's eyes followed him. If he saw those eyes, he would wonder why his neighbor had that look on his face, had that pain in his eyes, and why his voice is full of longing when he murmured, "You are finally here, Kyu Woon."
