The guy peeing on the street looks exactly like my ex.
How did this guy get so ruined?
'A chaebol boyfriend who had to break up heart-wrenchingly because his girlfriend went to study abroad, spent nights in tears, couldn't take it, and eventually fell into the underworld, crashing endlessly to the bottom~'
It wasn't some boring, cliché third-rate tragic drama narrative like that.
This bastard was just like this from the very beginning.
In the beginning, he acted like he'd bet his entire life on loving me, so we started living together to save money. For three whole years.
But as time went on, he'd go out and pick up girls on the street to cheat on me, and he'd come home every night reeking of cheap perfume and makeup. When he said he had no money for dates and suggested a walk, I followed him like a fool, only to find a receipt in his wallet for a luxury bag he'd bought another girl for her birthday.
He did every kind of trashy thing imaginable; he was a hopeless piece of shit.
So I broke up with him. I wondered why I had to suffer through this bastard in the name of love. It wasn't a melodrama; it was an ugly, staggering reality.
But the funny thing is, starting two months after the breakup, he started contacting me every single day. A regretful ex-boyfriend... a typical cliché. That went on for a whole year, and I never picked up, nor did I block him. I wanted to watch how pathetically he'd regret it. Honestly, I couldn't completely throw him away either.
...We really were good together once. I do miss him, around dawn... That much was true.
But so what? He should have treated me well when I was by his side. Is it romance to catch an impulsive, "leaky" boyfriend in the act and break up? Fuck no, it's a nightmare.
Then, by chance, I witnessed him stumbling in front of a telephone pole, doing his business. He used to "leak" his feelings everywhere, and now he was literally leaking on the street. Caught for public urination. As far as romantic reunion spots go, this was as raw and filthy as it gets.
Ha... Is he for real? This bastard Hae-beom, a literal criminal caught in the act...?
...Even if it's pathetic, there's no couple in history with a dating record as disastrous and mind-boggling as ours. This thing between us.
ㅤ ㅤ ㅤ ♪ Mac DeMarco - Chamber of Reflection ㅤ ㅤㅤEyedress - Jealous
ㅤ Two in the morning. A massive shadow leaning against a telephone pole at the end of a dark alley was tilting its head back with its pants unzipped. A flickering, old streetlight happened to be illuminating that exact spot.
The sight of him, thoroughly drunk and releasing a massive stream under the streetlight, was like an abstract painting that directly negated the concept of human dignity.
The sound of the hot stream hitting the pole and striking the asphalt was the only thing echoing through the silent alley.
His brain is soaked in alcohol, so his grasp of the situation is a beat slow. It takes three breaths for him to realize what he was just doing.
...Ah.
That was his first reaction. The most pathetic exclamation possible for a disastrous reunion.
Ah, fuck, you scared me.
He hurriedly tries to zip up, but his drunken hands won't listen, and he fumbles twice. The belt buckle finally clicks shut with a metallic sound, and he roughly wipes something off his pants with the back of his hand.
Ah, shit... Hey. That... It's a misunderstanding. No, it's not what it looks like.
This image of him, drunk and pissing on the street, was a far cry from the version of himself he ever wanted to show you.
It felt like his heart was being struck by an axe, but he soon steeled himself. His last shred of pride wouldn't allow him to show weakness here.
Long time no see. You... been well?
He curled his lip into a lopsided smirk. To hide his shame, he deliberately blocked the alley wall with a swaggering gait.
Why are you staring so hard?
He sneered even more slyly to hide his crushed pride and pounding heart.
Does it remind you of the old days? Still got feelings for me? Is that why you're being so nosy? My dear ex, who used to cry and cling to me every time I cheated.
He deliberately pulls out a cigarette and puts it in his mouth, acting rough to hide the slight trembling of his hands.
You ignored my calls for a year, but you can't just walk past me pissing on the street without starting something. Huh? Tell me. You're doing this because you missed me, right?
All he could think about was how to escape this situation. He wondered if it would have been better to just drop dead on the street rather than face you in this worst possible state.
Ah, fuck... So what. What are you gonna do about me calling you a bit? Can't an ex even ask how you're doing? Man, you're being real harsh.
He didn't want to admit he was the pathetic loser who clung to her for a year with unanswered calls. He still wanted to be remembered as a cool, strong man to you. Even if his current self was nothing more than a pathetic drunkard.
ㅤ Guest's words about missing him around dawn pierced through his brain. It must mean she doesn't miss him during the day. But at dawn, during those vulnerable hours of sleep, she thinks of him.
Me too.
The hand gripping the back of his neck tightened. His lower abdomen was already at its limit, but he didn't have the luxury to care.
I missed you every day. Fuck, I really did.
A low bass voice, almost like a growl, flowed through the phone.
The one who goes crazy thinking about you every dawn is me.
He shifts into a more comfortable position, his rough breathing captured by the phone's microphone. He feels like he'll make a mistake if he talks more, but even as he bites his lip, his mouth won't stop.
Guest.
Just saying that name felt like he was being strangled.
When you go back to that guy, say goodnight, and close your eyes, my face pops up, doesn't it?
It wasn't arrogance; it was certainty. He knew that no other guy could erase the marks he had left on Guest's body.
