Another Winter
another Winter 08's

One month just passed.

Today John and MinHo have a job that takes them to Seoul. I don't want John to leave.

"Have you managed to get your wife pregnant with John? " ask MinHo suddenly, pulling John's attention away.

"What are you talking about?" sahut John with a flat tone.

"Hey, that's a natural question, huh?! "

"Sounds it hasn't worked? "john replied still flat, not wanting to take a headache and prolong the ambiguous conversation MinHo made.

"So you touched her? You said no taste! "

"Hey, that was it! Don't talk like that, you can cause misunderstanding! "

"okay! Pardon me! "

They still spread the brochure to the pedestrians. Unlike Minho who spreads charm to girls, John instead covers his identity hoping no one recognizes in the next hour.

However, it seems like good luck has not been on his side. Someone knows John. Jiun.

"John's? Is that you?! "

John turned his face away from JiEun who was trying to find her features behind the mask and hat she was wearing.

"Just go, you're wrong! "

JiEun approached John and sniffed, inhaling the scent that came from behind the black jacket that John was wearing.

"I'm not wrong! You still use the same scent! John-"

Annoyed, John stared at JiEun's guts with his perfectly rounded bead. The girl smiled. Pretty, still the same as when John made the girl his first.

"Then what do you want? I have to work Ji! Please don't get me fired for trivial things! " said John as he walked around the place, handing out one by one piles of paper with pictures of household appliances on his arms to pedestrians. JiEun was still following, trailing behind.

"Then meet me if you get fired! I will help you get accepted into my papa company unconditionally! "

"Ji—"

"Call me Eun, like old times! " sahut JiEun fast. Makes John forced to link the bead with annoyance.

"Sorry, but that was it! So please, don't build up the feel of the past for now! It's all different Ji, I already have a wife and I love her so much! "

"You lied! "

John frowned, annoyed not playing. JiEun still did not give up when she said the fact that she was married and happy.

"You... still choose a woman who has a physique like me, right?"

"Your wife, I saw it when you took her shopping that day! Short hair, small body, isn't that what you liked about me?" jieun's voice trembled with a slightly watery bead.

"You're wrong Ji! "

"Then what? John, please don't lie to me about your feelings! "

Stagnan, John's lips tightly clenched behind a black mask that still hides the face. John's head bowed disappointed because in fact he still could not forget the figure of JiEun completely. Suddenly John wanted MinHo to come and destroy the atmosphere that really made him unable to move his legs, even his lips to just talk.

"You want me to tell you one thing that could make you hate me even more, Ji? "

JiEun bowed this time, though,

"I'm trying to bring a child into our family! I did it because I really love my wife! Not yourself! "

Sontak JiEun raised her gaze, brazing the view with her two beautiful beads that were watering, dripping more and more. His heart was sliced with grief, his lips quivering with a hint of a bitter smile.

"A~h so you did it? Of course, you guys are married and it's only natural to do that! " he answered while wiping the tears that fell down his cheeks.

Seeing that, John was eager to grab JiEun's shoulder and give her peace of mind because it had made JiEun cry like that. But he had another, more compelling reason not to. And that reason was Song Hyuji.

"So, stop wanting me back in the past! " John paused for a moment, cursing to defend his heart and feelings. "Other than want me for you! It's all in the past, where you've destroyed it!"

John could not bear to see JiEun who was increasingly touched.

"Sorry like this to you, but I'm not what Ji used to be! Our paths are different! And I hope you'll take it!" bright John while looking at his agitated hand.

"If it is like that, let me receive a hug that can calm me down! From you, like before! "

***

Hyuji prepared all the sales materials he would bring to the store. Suddenly his phone on the dining table shook. He thought John might miss him so much that he called when the sun was still shining.

Hyuji rubbed the palm on the apron and pressed the message balloon.

Like being hit by a mace that destroys every encel and inch of his body. Hyuji let his phone hit the table hard, leading himself to step away a few steps away from his smart square with both palms covering his mouth open in shock. The two beads were heating up spontaneously, the nausea assaulting his stomach violently.

"...??"

Hyuji ran to the bathroom to get out all the food in his stomach, all of it, unceremoniously.

Limp, his body slumped on the floor of the bathroom with tears that could not be held. Stupefied in silence, the body trembled, his face paled.

"You... lied to me John?" his murmur was interrupted by sobs that never subsided.

"Brengs*k! "[]
