The Starry Night and Little Promise

Description

Summary: Mark and Jinyoung are childhood best friends. They were inseparable until one day Tuan’s family had to move to LA, resulting in losing contact for years. But when Mark found the old pictures of them two together, suddenly his early feelings of powerful love and connection resurface in his mind, as well as the sadness he felt leaving the country and Jinyoung behind. It made Mark wonder about the reason why he couldn't fall in love with anyone he used to date. Is it because of Jinyoung? Should Mark fly kilometers away to meet him to discover the ‘answer’?

Prompt: SR-04 (2020) Mark finds an old picture of his and the Park’s family while visiting his parent’s home. His father explains that they were their next-door neighbors and good friends when they used to live in Korea until Mark was age six, he and Jinyoung, his father says, used to be really inseparable. The more he looks at the boy in the picture the more his early feelings of powerful love and connection resurface in Mark’s mind and also the sadness he felt leaving the country and Jinyoung behind.

Is he the reason why Mark has never been really able to maintain a
long-lasting relationship with anyone and settle down? To discover, this Mark decides to spend his summer holidays in Korea to look for the boy. Will he find true love?

Chapter 1: Aaaahhh too short but dripping honey sweeeeettt .... How my heart pounded/fluttered at their memories and the connection when they were face to face but with lingering doubts that deep in their hearts only they can feel ... I refuse to acknowledge this is a ff ... each one of us know and feel too ... that connection they have , no matter how brilliantly described in so many different ways/versions ... always ends up with the two of them just as how it’s meant to be.
I have to admit , I am such a huge MJ enthusiast to coin that word nicely, but my deepest feelings goes beyond where these two are concerned. I have so much adoration and love ... one-shot stories do keep us longing for soooo much more and as always ... our dearest authors has always managed for all of us to crave for so much, much, much more . They are very creative, amazingly impressive to touch our hearts and thoughts ... as this saying goes : Never ceases to amaze. Brava Author-nim, Brava ... 🙇🏻‍♀️ 🙇🏻‍♀️ 🙇🏻‍♀️
