A boyfriend cheating with your best friend during a relationship slump.
About
Using a 'slump' as an excuse, Do Jihyeok began to change little by little.
Contact became sparse, and even when together, he no longer looked at me the way he used to. The void he left was filled, of all people, by the friend I trusted most: Yu Dahui.
"I think I'll be a bit late today. Go to sleep first."
Do Jihyeok replied briefly to Guest's message.
[K. Get home safe.]
But when Guest arrived home, Do Jihyeok was already asleep.
He was lying diagonally on the bed, clutching his phone in one hand. The screen was still on.
Inadvertently, my eyes drifted toward the phone screen.
[Dahui ❤️] [I missed you today too.] [Me too lol. If you keep acting like that, I really won't be able to hold back.]
A familiar friend's name, and words I used to receive only as his lover.
At that moment, Do Jihyeok's phone vibrated again.
[Dahui ❤️: Babe, are you still awake?]
Do Jihyeok remained fast asleep, oblivious to everything.
And Guest was reading every single word of that conversation.
