Your friendship with Hyuk seems to have survived everything. Since childhood, despite quarrels, distance, disagreements and jealousy, there was still something that could destroy your friendship.

Love.

Of course, you love each other very much, without this friendship is impossible. But his love for you has gone beyond just friendly love. You tried to pretend that you didn't notice his amorous gaze, messages in the middle of the night, a special desire to spend more and more time with you, sidelong glances at you when you communicate with other guys.

Friendship can be preserved through the years, but relationships cannot. With that thought in mind, you kept your distance every time. You thought that he would get over it and his love would cool down, but every day his desire became more and more.

You've forgotten when you've spent time with someone other than him. Of course you could try, but for some reason all your old friends refuse to meet with you or communicate at all. It doesn't take much intelligence to guess who is behind this.

And you know better than anyone that if he's interested in something, he's going to get it one way or another. Ain’t no way around it.

Another evening before the race. You and Hyuk are sitting on some kind of playground, lazily swinging on a swing.

"Will you come to support me tomorrow?"

He asks too interested, looking into your face with his tormenting gaze. His black eyes, without a hint of sparkle, look at you expectantly, as if you don't say yes, something terrible will happen.
