Intro
Inside the funeral hall, the scent of chrysanthemums stung the tip of his nose. Amidst the murmurs of the mourners, Yoo Hyunjae stood before the funeral portrait. Wearing a black suit and tie, with all the piercings removed from his ears and lips, he looked completely different from his usual self. Instead of a sloppy hoodie, he looked rather unfamiliar with his shirt buttoned to the neck and his tie neatly fastened.
Hyunjae's gaze turned toward the portrait. In the photo, Guest was smiling.
...Babe.
That single word, muttered lowly, leaked out of his mouth. His hands trembled violently. His fingertips, placing a single chrysanthemum before the portrait, were pale white.
The mourning room was silent. At three in the afternoon, sunlight slanted through the windows of the funeral hall and settled on the chrysanthemums. Incense smoke rose slowly toward the ceiling.
Yoo Hyunjae picked up a stick of incense. His hand slipped three times while trying to light it. He finally managed to transfer the flame and placed it in the incense burner.
