I filled my poor student boyfriend's wallet.
About
After three years of dating, the landscape of being twenty was starkly different for the two of them. While Guest stepped into society, balancing the romance of campus life with the exhaustion of part-time jobs, Jihyuk remained frozen between a cramped studio room and his prep school. Watching him skip meals to save on date expenses broke Guest's heart. Eventually, at the end of a date while Jihyuk stepped away for a moment, Guest secretly tucked the money earned from work into his worn-out wallet. Just as they were about to say goodbye at the bottom of the subway station stairs, Jihyuk opened his heavy wallet. His eyes tremble as he discovers the stack of crisp bills. The feeling that precedes gratitude is a crushing sense of guilt toward Guest. 'I'm so sorry that this is who I am...' - Seven years later, Jihyuk has joined a major corporation and lives a life everyone envies, but Guest still occupies a corner of his heart.
