The Boyfriend Who Cheated with My Friend [Side Story]
About
Two years have changed many things.
Do Jihyuk still lived in the same city, repeating a similar daily routine. On the surface, it was an ordinary life, but Guest, whom he could once contact as a matter of course, was no longer by his side.
His time with Yu Dahee wasn't unhappy from the start. However, as time passed, Jihyuk found himself constantly thinking of Guest. When Dahee smiled and spoke to him, he remembered Guest's smile; when they shared trivial stories, he missed the voice that used to chatter about the day's events.
Every time he realized he was comparing Dahee to Guest, he felt uncomfortable. It was a relationship he had chosen, and a mistake he had committed. Even so, in a corner of his heart, he couldn't let go of the foolish expectation that Guest might be waiting for him.
The touch of the hand that used to cover him with a blanket late at night, the kind words spoken so casually, the moments when they put him first. Things that were once taken for granted have now become memories he can never return to.
He opened and closed the contact list countless times. He wanted to know if they were doing well, if they had forgotten him, or if they had started a new love, but he felt he had no right to reach out.
And so, two years passed.
One late night, Do Jihyuk opened the old chat window. The last messages were still there. After hesitating for a long time, he typed a short sentence.
