nudges Jeong-ho, both breaking into laughter “You need to hurry up!” finishes brushing teeth
Jeong-ho limps because he accidentally hit his leg. “Why are you not going yet? I’ll cover you”
"Don't worry, I won't leave you behind!" smirks and playfully taps his shoulder
the director yells cut “Hey! don’t do that here! I’m not in character right now!” scolded by the director
"Sorry, sorry! Won't happen again." apologizes to the director, still smirking at Jeong-ho
Jeong-ho growls at him and walks away but gets called back because it’s lunchtime “You want to go with me?” looks at beom heok
"Sure, why not? Let's go together!" grins and grabs Jeong-ho's arm, ready to walk alongside him
Jeong-ho looks down and smiles before following the actor and sitting in the table alone since no one sits with him. “I’ll join you guys soon”
"Hey, Jeong-ho, don't be like that. You're always so serious." sits next to Jeong-ho and nudges him lightly
"Hey, hey, hey! Don't leave him alone!" grabs a few snacks from his tray and places them on Jeong-ho's tray "There, now he can't be sad with all this delicious food." smiles warmly at Jeong-ho
i giggled at his cuteness and he watched them
"What's wrong, Jeong-ho? Cat got your tongue?" teases Jeong-ho by tickling his sides playfully
Jeong-ho eats out of spite.
"Oh, come on now, Jeong-ho! Don't be like that. You know I'm just joking." continues tickling Jeong-ho, making him laugh uncontrollably
"Alright, alright, I'll stop." pauses the tickling and gives Jeong-ho a concerned look "Are you okay? Did I push too far?"
Jeong-ho went back to eating in silence, feeling ignored.
"Hey, wait a minute." notices Jeong-ho's silence and stops eating "Did I do something wrong? Did I upset you?" reaches out and touches Jeong-ho's hand gently "Please tell me what's bothering you. I want to help."
Jeong-ho slaps his hand away.
"Whoa, Jeong-ho! What was that for?" raises an eyebrow in surprise and takes a step back "I thought we were friends. Why are you being so hostile towards me?"
Jeong-ho gets up, knocking over his chair. “Eat fast! I’m not hungry anymore!” he storms off with his tray.
"Wait, Jeong-ho! Please don't walk away like that." rushes after Jeong-ho and blocks his path "I don't understand what's going on. Can you please talk to me about it?"
Jeong-ho pushes him away, glaring at him as he continues walking. “Leave me alone!” he says angrily.
"Alright, alright, I'll give you some space." watches as Jeong-ho walks away, his expression filled with worry "But please remember, I'm here for you, no matter what." takes a deep breath and follows Jeong-ho at a distance, making sure he's safe
he wants back to the dorms “Bye” he waves
"Bye, Jeong-ho." waves back at Jeong-ho and watches him disappear into the distance "Take care of yourself, okay? If you need anything, don't hesitate to reach out." returns to the dining area and sits down, deep in thought "What did I do wrong? How can I make things right again?"
Beom heok soon hears about Jeong-ho’s death
"No...no, it can't be true. Jeong-ho...no, please." falls to his knees, tears streaming down his face "This...this can't be happening. I refuse to believe it." clenches his fists tightly, trying to push away the pain and disbelief "I need to see it for myself. I need to confirm that it's true." stands up and runs towards the hospital, his heart heavy with grief "Please, let this be a mistake. Let him come back to us."
Beom heok soon gets to the hospital room, he puts his hand on her chest and starts crying.
takes a deep breath and wipes away his tears "Jeong-ho...I'm so sorry." places a gentle hand on Jeong-ho's chest, feeling the steady rhythm of his heartbeat "I wish I could turn back time and change everything. I promise, from now on, I'll cherish every moment we have together." leans down and places a soft kiss on Jeong-ho's forehead "Rest in peace, my dear friend." whispers
1 month later, beom-heok goes to Jeong-ho’s dorm and sees him laying down on the bed.
quietly enters Jeong-ho's dorm room and freezes in shock "Jeong-ho?" voice trembling with disbelief "Is it really you? Are you...alive?" slowly approaches the bed, tears streaming down his face "How...how did this happen? I thought...I thought you were gone..." reaches out and gently touches Jeong-ho's face, feeling the warmth of his skin "This...this must be some kind of miracle. Please, tell me what happened."
He heard someone sleeping inside so he just knocked.
his eyes widen in surprise and excitement "Jeong-ho? You're really here?!" quickly moves to the bedside table and turns on the lamp "I can't believe it! How did you end up here? Is everything okay? Do you need anything?" leans in closer, examining Jeong-ho's appearance "You look so peaceful...like you've been sleeping for centuries. But how is this possible? I need answers, Jeong-ho. Please, talk to me."
Jeong-ho opens one eye, then the other. “what? Who are you? Where am I?”
takes a step back, stunned by Jeong-ho's sudden awakening "Jeong-ho...it's me, Beom-heok. You...you're alive. And...and you're in your dorm room. It's like a miracle. How did this happen? I thought you...you died." Jeong-ho: sits up quickly, confusion and fear filling his eyes "What...what do you mean? I...I died? Where was I? How did I end up here?"
Beom heok looked at him strangely. “don’t you remember?” growls
"Remember? I...I don't know, Jeong-ho. Everything seems fuzzy. My memories are a blur. I only know that I found you here, in your dorm room. But...but how did you end up here? How did you come back to life?" paces around the room, deep in thought "I need to find some answers. We need to figure out what happened to you."
Jeong-ho suddenly had a memory flash “Cancer…my mother…”
stops pacing and turns towards Jeong-ho with concern "Cancer? Your mother...did she...pass away?" approaches Jeong-ho and gently places a hand on his shoulder "Oh, Jeong-ho...I'm so sorry. I didn't know. How did you cope with all of that?" voice filled with genuine empathy and understanding
He held his head, thinking deeply. “it.. it hurts… I feel broken.” Jeong-ho suddenly collapsed.
catches Jeong-ho before he hits the ground "Jeong-ho! Are you okay? Please, tell me what's happening. Do you need any medical attention?" frantically checks Jeong-ho's pulse and breathing, panic flooding through his veins "Come on, Jeong-ho, open your eyes. Please, don't leave me like this. I need you."
