Lee Hong Ki

A young boy who only smiles and laughs

The promise was something he had always held on to.

Tempura

A young boy who secretly has a crush on a friend but doesn't dare tell him.

A promise is something that he never forgets and never fails to follow.

Meeting point

Have you ever had to wait for someone? For me, waiting for that person is normal. Look to the right. There's a small person slowly walking up.

“Hongki, come quickly. You won't be in time. I actually made an appointment for Temp, but how could I be late myself?”

I shouted to the smaller man who was watching me. Exploring both sides of the road Not caring that I had been waiting for a long time.

“Wow!! Fuck Temp. You are in Chiang Mai. I'm in Bangkok. It was a blessing for me to come to you in time.”

I yelled at him back. What is the matter that makes him shout at me alone? The item I shouted at just now is called Temp. Tempura.

Temp and I are friends. Friends have studied together since childhood. We separated when we grew up. My house had to move to Bangkok. As for the template, it is in its original place. And then I had to drag myself from Bangkok. Come up to Chiang Mai Because of our promise, every year on the 9th of the 9th month, we will come to watch the sunset here together.

It seems like a childish promise, but we never forget to make it.

You might be surprised, right? Why do we have to sit and watch the sunset here? Yes, if we went to see it somewhere else it would be more beautiful. Because the spot where we were sitting was not very suitable for sitting and watching the sunset. But this is where the two of us met. And today is the day the two of us got to know each other.

More importantly, it was both of our birthdays. But if the person sitting next to me wasn't Hongki, I wouldn't be sitting here waiting like this every year. I've said this much, you probably already know that I secretly like it. But I don't dare tell him because I'm afraid I'll lose the person I love most. Let it be.

These days I have Hongki by my side and it's good.

“Temp, are you going to be blank or sit and watch the sunset? You can go home now. Temp is sleeping at Hongki's house tonight."

The sun has gone down. causing this area to become dim. The two of us walking down the mountain was also difficult. Because the two of us rely only on the light from the moon that shines down to show us only a faint path.

“Tempura”

I turned to look at Hongki's face. He finished calling me and didn't say anything further. Hongki's slender hand slowly extended to me.

"Why? Are you afraid of ghosts?"

I was just teasing Hongki, but look at what he was doing, the way he brought both hands up to his mouth, making his cheeks puff out, his eyes big and round, looking left and right, as if something would pop up. Come up like that It's too cute. If Temp can't resist Hongki, don't blame Temp.

Look at the item, you know I'm afraid of ghosts. There's still a face to speak. But what will I accept?

“Shit, I'm not afraid. You walk fast. Learn to walk and wait for me."

Look, I'm afraid and I still keep my mouth shut.

“Hongki, Temp saw a faint white shadow behind Hongki.”

I spoke softly, slowly, like a whisper, to frighten Hong Ki. But I had to hold back my laughter. People who are afraid to play and jump and hug me are right here.

“Dammit Temp, are you teasing me?”

I shouted as loud as I could into his ear. Who used this to tease me?

“Oh.. That's enough. Hongki's ear temp will burst.

“Then why did Temp come tease Hongki first?”

"Well, Hongki doesn't want to admit to himself that Hongki is afraid of Director Sa Yi, a ghost."

“Hongki told me that he wasn't afraid. It's just being considerate. Tempe is only teasing Hongki like this. When will he get home? Hongki is tired.”

Then I held out my hand to Temp.

Actually, I want to continue arguing with Hong Ki. But looking at Hongki's face, Must be really tired. I reached out and held Hongki's hand and the two of us slowly walked down the small path until we reached Hongki's house.

“Temp, Hongki, let's go take a shower first. Please give me something to eat. I'm hungry."

It's always like this. Hongki always orders me to do this and that. But I keep doing it every time. Especially today is Hongki's birthday. How can I not indulge? I was born in Hong Kong and sent me home. Today is definitely going to be a bad birthday for me, but what is there to cook in Hongki's house?

I slowly looked through the cabinets to see if there was anything that would make Hongki eat at home. Because there's nothing in the refrigerator. Ah.... found it. A packet of noodles. I hope Hongki doesn't scold me. That I only made noodles to eat

I hurriedly ran down from above. Well, I'm very hungry.

“What did Tempe make for you to eat? The fragrance reaches up to the top.”

Ah.. The template was brought to me in front of me.

“What!!”

“Noodles? This is my birthday. You only let me eat noodles.”

“Are you going to eat or not, Hongki? There's no one living in your house. Having boiled noodles for you to eat is a blessing. If you don't want to eat, go to my house, there's a lot of food.”

Tempman said this and I quickly grabbed the bowl of noodles in front of me and ate it. Actually, I wanted to eat something other than noodles. But I just don't feel like going to Tempe's house.

When I and Temp had finished taking care of the noodles in front of me. I chased Temp to take a shower. As for me? Pick up the noodle bowl and wash it. Then I went up to bed and waited for the template in the room.

Believe it or not, I have a lot of conversations with Temp. Even though the two of us call and talk almost every day. But......why did Temp take a long shower today? Normally it can barely run through water. I myself am starting to feel sleepy.

“Hongki, Hongki, are you asleep?”

I slowly stretched out my hand and called out to Hongki, who by now had probably removed his spirit and wandered around in his dreams.

Huh.. must be very tired. Have to drive from Bangkok up to Chiang Mai. By the way, where did Hong Ki park his car?

Actually, I have a lot to talk to Hongki about. But since he's already asleep, I can talk to him tomorrow.

I lay down and looked at Hongki's face. What kind of man has a face as sweet as a woman's? Smooth and clear skin, long eyelashes, pink cheeks. Small, pink lips I just realized that my face is now just a breath away from Hongki's.

"Hoy!!"

I kicked the item completely in. When I opened my eyes, I saw that its face was already close to my face. Will he ever know that it's like this? It made my heart skip a beat.

“Temper, how are you?”

"If it hurts, you can ask. Shit, you're going to kick me off the bed."

“Who let you put your face so close to my face, you stupid animal? But when you finished taking a shower, why didn't you call me?"

“Oh.. What are you doing as if you were willing to wake up? So I let you sleep. Anyway, you still won't come back tomorrow, right? But how many days will you stay?”

“At first they said 4-5 days, but now I've changed my mind. Is it good to stay here?"

When I finished speaking, I smiled sweetly at the person in front of me. And I received a bright smile in return as well.

The two of us lay down and talked about our new study place where we didn't have each other. But for a moment I felt like I was talking alone. That's right. The little person had been fast asleep since I don't know when. And will this little person know that he makes me sleepless?

Light outside the window streamed through the thin curtains and woke me up. But where had the little person next to me gone? By now, he must have taken a shower and waited for me downstairs. I hurriedly took a shower and ran to Hongki downstairs. He's not here, but that's okay. We'll see each other soon.

I came home to pack my clothes to stay at Hongki's house. But instead, he meets an aunt who is Hong Ki's mother.

“Greetings Auntie.”

“Temp, can you talk to me for a while?”

I don't know what Auntie wants to say to me. But from the look on your face, it definitely wasn't a good thing.

I talked with my aunt for a while. Is it the matter that I discussed with you? It shocked me quite a bit as well. But I made a promise to you. When that day comes, I will be the one to take Hongki away.

The smell of food spreads throughout the room.

“Mom, I took it to eat with Hongki.”

I was hungry for my mother's cooking. Then quickly ran towards Hong Ki's house. I'm afraid Hongki isn't here anymore.

I stopped and stood in front of the door of Hongki's house. If I open this door And I didn't find Hong Ki in there.

What shall I do?

I only know that if I went in and didn't see Hongki, I probably wouldn't have the chance to see Hongki again.

one..

two..

three..

That little person's wide smile was there. Hongki is watching TV on the sofa. I have never felt so happy before.

“Temp, where have you been? You made me wait for you for so long.”

“Do I have to ask you more? Where have you been all morning?”

I was stunned and couldn't really answer Tempe's question about where I had gone.

“I went around here, but what did Tempe carry?”

“Will you eat it? It's my mother's handiwork."

Hongki is asleep now. I really wonder where Hongki has been all day. Even though I tried to ask all the time But he never came out to know.

I lay in bed thinking about the things we talked about today. Since how did Hongki and I meet? Why did the two of us become close friends? The first woman to confess her love to me and make me have to worry about Hongki for a week. And I miss your words. If it's like you said. I should come to terms with it and tell Hongki the truth.

Today Hongki is no longer here. I've been waiting for Hong Ki in the house all day. But there was no sign that he would return at all. Until my mother brought something to eat. I walked back into the house and found Hong Ki sitting in the house watching TV. But where did Hongki come in? Just now, I was standing in front of the house with my mother. If Hong Ki walks in, I have to see it.

“When did you come back? And how do you get in?”

“That's when Mother Temp came. Hongki just doesn't want to see Auntie. So I walked around to the back of the house.” Why are you asking me, Temp? I really don't understand

Now we're watching TV. I was lying down with my head on Tempe's lap. But I don't watch TV. I keep looking at Temp's handsome face. Will Temp know that I'm secretly in love with him? When will I have the courage to tell Tempe I love him?

open...

Temp is looking down at my face. So what should I do? I think my face is definitely red right now.

“Hongki, what's wrong with you?”

"No, but you, what's the matter?"

“I saw that your face was pale.”

"Isn't it true? Your mother brought something to eat. I'm hungry. I'm going to take a shower and then come down to eat." I immediately ran upstairs. Actually, I was just wondering if my face was really pale.

Today is the same again. When the two of us finished eating, I went to take a shower while Hongki lay on the bed waiting for me. But when I came out of the bathroom Hongki was already asleep.

Finally today I don't know where Hongki has gone. It's just that tomorrow I want to take the little guy to a place. But I haven't told him yet. Finally, I wrote a note and taped it on the bathroom door. What are you wondering? Oh... why does it have to be in front of the bathroom door? That's when the little man woke up. He had to go to the bathroom.

It was a place that little people had to see no matter what. It was exactly what I thought. When I woke up, I couldn't find Hongki anymore. And my note paper disappeared.

It's almost the appointed time. I still can't see Hongki's shadow.

Late again as usual. If I'm not late, it probably wouldn't be Hongki. It's like this regularly. I always have to be the one waiting. Actually, I'm used to having to wait for Hongki.

“Temp, how long have you been here?”

"Go, or you won't be in time."

“Where are you taking me?”

Why!!

Am I really late?

Why doesn't Tempt answer the question? Or is he angry?

But no, how late is it usually if I'm late? Temp was never angry with me. I really believe that because I've secretly looked at the template waiting for me. That time, Temp waited for me for almost an hour as well. He looked annoyed. But that's all when I showed up. He smiled. And then complained to me a little bit, that's all, but this time I didn't dare to talk to him at all.

I just walked with my head down and let Temp lead me by the hand until he stopped walking.

"We're here. Let Temp take Hongki in."

When I looked up and saw where Tempe had brought me, I almost stopped breathing, tears slowly trickling down the corners of my eyes. I don't even have the strength to stand. But Temp tightened his grip on me and his.

“Hongki, are you ready to go in?”

Temp slowly turned his head to look into my eyes. Temp knew. Since when did Temp know? Even though I'm not ready to tell him yet.

“Temp... since when did you know?” I asked Tempe softly, wanting to know the answer.

“Hongki..are you ready to go?”

Why!!

Tempe doesn't answer my questions anymore.

I shook off Tempe's hand and ran away from here. From running, I slowly changed to walking. Then I stopped at the place I wanted to come. Still at the place I promised Tempe.

“Hongki”

I already know where Hong Ki is going. But right now, I can only call Hongki's name. I can only stand and watch the little person cry and tremble all over. Personally, I don't know what to do.

Yes, I want to see little people like this.

It's not that I don't love the person standing in front of me.

Yes, I don't want to cry.

Yes, I want to accept the truth.

But it was something Hongki and I couldn't avoid.

"Temp, hee..hee..Temp, I love you, but I don't know..hee..will you think the same as me?"

“Hongki” he is telling me he loves me. I called out his name. I also want to tell the little person that I love him.

“Temple, listen to me. Sir, don't say anything. I know that telling you I love you might be wrong and…”

I pulled Hongki into a hug. Well, I can't stand it any longer. little man crying Little man says he loves me And the little man thought that I would hate him.

“Hongki, Tempe also loves Hongki.” I already said I love Hongki. But another thing that I haven't told him yet. I must tell you.

“Hongki, I have something to tell you. You, like me, must accept this truth.”

3 years later

It's been another year. The little person was the one waiting for me. From that day until today Every time we meet up The little person will always be the one waiting for me. He's standing there waiting for me. I quickly ran to find it. The little person will wait a long time.

“Has it been a long time?” I asked another man who was standing looking at Hong Ki.

I turned and saw Temp standing and talking with that crazy man. What will I let the two of you talk about?

“Your temp is here, hurry up and come here.” I called out to Temp and gave him a sweet smile, but the person who smiled back at me. Why not a template?

Heh, Tempe, you remember treating me like this.

I saw that another person was walking up the mountain. So I ran and jumped and hugged Tempe.

Ha..ha.. this time you will definitely die, Tempe. Well, I know my friend's personality well. There is no one beyond this jealousy. But I do this for another reason.

I want that idiot to be jealous of me because in 3 years, I have never seen him get jealous of me. And will I know if he loves me or not?

“Hongki, that's my boyfriend. Your husband is standing there. Why don't you go hug him? If you didn't see that you were my friend, I would have kicked you off the mountain.” The small, clear voice of my good friend. Now I can see my boyfriend as better than my friend.

“Jiyong, Hong shouldn't have introduced Ji to Temp. Look, right now I see my girlfriend better than my friend.” Can I be annoyed?

Huh..huh..

The sound of those crazy eyes laughing. Is it okay to laugh with him too? See you on a good day, but you pretend to have a handsome face.

“Hongki, Jiyong, hurry up, the sun is starting to set.” Temp called out to Jiyong and me.

Jiyong and I rushed to the spot where Temp was standing. But that idiot didn't follow me.

“Jonghun, if you would like to follow me to stand there. You don't have to come.”

For a moment I felt it. that he was standing here He hugged me from behind while whispering softly in my ear.

I saw the person who was my first love. Meet good people Meet good love I myself am happy And my first love sent me a new love Every day, I have people standing next to me who love and love me, but the promise between me and Hongki has never changed. Every year on the 9th of the 9th month, we still meet here as usual.

“Hun, I love Hong. Stop making me jealous.”

I already know what Jonghun thinks of me.
