"jingle!! Duuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

The clock that was set on the phone sounded. Draw the consciousness of the person sitting blankly staring at the window into focus.

Is it half past five?

He pressed the stop button before picking up a towel and walking into the bathroom to wash his face. Today everything looks gloomy. It turned out to be all gray when in fact it was supposed to be a good day.

He grabbed a towel and wiped his face before changing his clothes, fixing his hair, and tidying himself up. When he thought everything was fine So he walked out of the room and picked up a gift box that was on his desk. Then he walked out of the house to go to the place where he had been invited.

Today is the birthday of his best friend 'Park Jehyung'. There's his birthday party tonight this evening. Of course he was invited too. But how he feels about it is another matter.... Our mothers are close friends. Our houses are a few streets away from each other. We've been at the same school since childhood.

We are very close to each other...

He walked slowly along the road while thinking about nothing. Until I don't know when I arrived at a familiar house.

The lights, colors, and sounds that emitted made him feel even more tired. Everyone is having fun. So why is he like this?

               "Heyyy Brian

Have you arrived yet?” Jehyung walked in to welcome him.

Brian, Young Yeon, Kang Young Hyun, those are all his names.

"Um, here's your present," Brian replied as he held out the gift box in his hand.

               "Long time no see , how are you?"

"Don't come, I just saw you yesterday."

“One day for me is more than enough. Let's go to work. The other friends are waiting for you."

"Yes."

After saying that, Jay walked up to him and hugged his neck and led him into the party.

'One day for me is more than enough'

Words like this must be another reason why he feels good about Jess. Jay likes to say strange things to him. And it made him feel strange. It can't be called a good feeling. Because he wasn't in a position to feel that way.

Normally we always stick together. But yesterday he had to prepare a birthday party at home. Therefore causing us to not be together. At first he was just going to come help. But Jay refused out of consideration. So he didn't get anything. yesterday evening The two families had a dinner date together for Jay's birthday. It gave us a chance to meet and talk. Everything was happy until

'Mng!' Jay suddenly spoke loudly while we were sitting in the living room playing games. Meanwhile, the adults sat and talked in the kitchen.

'What's wrong with you? What's wrong with you?'

Jaehyung shuts down the game on the TV before bouncing on the sofa where Brian is sitting.

'Come on, you bastard, just turn off my game.' He turned to scold his annoying best friend.

'Do you remember that young man? That I followed and flirted with him.'

'...Who is it? Jimin's younger sister. Why? Has he agreed to date you?' But now his heart is shaking, not joking. It started to feel strangely bad.

'You really know my heart. He agreed to date me as a birthday present,' Jehyung said in a happy tone.

It felt like something heavy was pressing on his left side of the chest. That's it. My premonition was accurate. Brian tried to keep his face as calm as possible. Smile as much as you can He knew that one day it would be like this. But it arrived too soon. He still couldn't come to terms with it.

'Dammit, I'm happy for you. I'm going to have a boyfriend sometime,' Brian said as he walked over and patted Jay's shoulder gently.

'Of course, there's the famous Brother Brian coming to help woo. If you can't flirt then you'll be damned,' Jay joked, but why did he see Brian's expression deteriorate? When he didn't say anything wrong

Hey!

The more I talked, the more I pitied myself for doing something stupid.

At that time, Je-hyung asked him to help him find Jimin's Facebook, Line, and phone numbers, and he found them for him. He tried not to think too much about it because Jay is a person who likes to look at pretty girls all the time. But when I knew it was his acquaintance Jay asked for help flirting. Of course, he felt it in his heart but couldn't do anything...he couldn't deny it. He is a close friend of Jayni.

How about the end? The result of doing things without listening to your heart.

hurt

It hurts a lot.

It hurts so bad.

'Um, what do you want tomorrow? Will you still have a party? Or will I go on a date with his younger sibling?'

'If you're still planning it, invite your younger sibling to the party as well.'

'Well, we've been together for a long time, see you tomorrow' Brian finished, shouldering his bag and walking out of the living room.

'Oh, what's going on?' Jay turned to ask Brian who was walking almost to the door of the house. He usually doesn't come back quickly. I only want to stay.

'Oh, you should also learn to sleep early. There's a big event tomorrow'

'Wow, Brother Brian isn't lonely at all.'

When Brian heard Jay say that His hand that was opening the door suddenly stopped. Saying this again...why would you say this? Talk like he's important. Talk like he's your lover. Is this not painful enough? These jokes hurt him. It hurts every time I hear it.

Knowing that the other person was just joking. But in the end, there was only him...the only one who felt.

'...If you're lonely, take time to talk to Jimin. Take good care of his little brother. I'm going now,' Brian said before walking out of the house. Leaving a person wondering what he did wrong. That's why his close friend acted like that. Even though it should be the opposite.

"Oh, you're already here? Come and have a drink." Mark, one of their close friends, walked up to Brian and led him to a corner for drinks.

Brian sat down at the bar before turning to the bartender to order a drink.

"I want something serious."

“Oh, what happened today? Don't you normally only eat light things like cocktails?" The bartender asked in surprise. He is another acquaintance of Brian. He knew Brian had a stiff neck but he usually saw him drinking something light.

“Um, something is a little troubling you today, brother. But I don't have to worry.”

"Then I'll make it for you. Get well soon,” he said before turning to give Brian a shot.

"Bring lots of shots, bro," Brian shouted after him.

Glass after glass Brian continued drinking without any signs of stopping. He had a stiff neck. It was very difficult. When you want to forget, you can't forget...

"Hey, I've already had five shots. Where are they?" Mark turned to him and asked.

"Okay, I'm not drunk yet," Brian replied, taking another drink.

“I know you have a stiff neck. But you don't have to be like this."

"It's okay."

"Hey, what's wrong with you? Tell me." Mark grabbed his face and turned him to look at him.

"I just want to forget."

"You know that when you're sober, you'll..."

"...It's good for a while..." Brian interjected before taking another drink.

Even though Mark didn't speak, he knew. He knew that when he woke up, everything would be the same. He still remembers everything. Jay is still dating Jimin. But he just wanted to forget. It's still good to forget for a while. Forget about things that happened So that you don't have to sit and feel this pain.

And of course, when he woke up, his relationship with Jay was still the same. We are close friends as usual. One day he will be able to forget this feeling.

'Then why don't you just tell Jay? How do you feel?'

Who told you? He already told Jay.

But he's just telling things through things.

box

That gift box he gave to Jay

'What's in the box?'

It was just a handmade picture book with only pictures of him and Jay. Close friends since childhood Pictures that capture every event from childhood to adulthood where we got to know each other. Put love, put memories, put words with only good feelings. Put in the time period of most of his life that Jay was around. It took him almost a whole month to do it. To give it to 'him', my best friend in life.

He didn't regret giving it to him at all.

Because he put everything in that box.

everything

...everything really

thank you :)
