Minho pulls out a well-kept-designed-box and stops as soon as the box is in full eyes-view and glances at Key b with happiness.
Then Minho eyes focus back on the box and lift both of his hands to gently open the box and at the same time, he says…
“I am pretty sure; you will like what you’ll see…”
“So confident, ha…? Minho…?”
“Yap…
(smirking) yap… yap… Hold on…
(opens the box) Here we go…”
Key’s eyes literally lit up when he sees the first item and immediately looks at Minho to ask but on a brighter tone this time…
“Wow…this painting is yours…?”
“Yeah… I did not paint it though. It was only given
to me as a memoir…
(gulps) for our second meeting I guess…”
Key: It is beautiful…
So innocent and pure…
Minho: (sighs) Yeah…
Key: (nudges Minho) Oooii…
Why that sudden sad face…?
Minho: (shaking his head) Oh…
Am just being nostalgic about it…
After a moment, Key voluntarily inspects the insides of the box overwhelming Minho to a smile and gaining confidence on trying to win Key.
Key: (looks at Minho with such cute smile)
You have cute and lovely memorabilia here…
Are these all from you or given by friends…
Minho: These several items inside the box
are coming from one person only…
Of course, I have friends remember them…
They are also our classmates…
Key: (looks perplexed) Ha…? Really…?
Minho: (sighs) Yes… But it is fine…
I do not expect you to know me and my friends personally…
I have their gifts kept at the attic…
Perhaps one time, I can show you that place but not now…
Key: (nods) Okay…
(points at the items) But really, am impressed that all of
these came from one person only...
Is it a he or a she…?
Minho: (gasps) Oh sorry… a he of course…
And I have loved him since then…
Key: (more perplexed) What do you mean love…
You…love…
You… bi…?
Minho: (sighs) Oh man…
You do have such a short span of memory…
Is there something wrong with the archiving part of your brain…
Key: (smiles) Oh…Sorry about that...
I don’t know but all I remember is my life in New York…
My early childhood days...hhmm…
It is weird actually that I could not remember any…
But there was a time, I dreamed of a place…
(thinking) It is like a forest or something…
And I was with a boy…not Park…
Of course you know Park…right…?
Minho: (throat dries) Yaees…
Park…Your boyfriend…
Key: (nods) Oh yeah… before Park…
You mean you’re heart beats not limited to the opposite …
Minho: (sighs) So long explanation…
I will cut it short…
I am in love with the same …period…
(saying to himself, "I just confessed to you")
Key: (smiles) Oh…
I am happy that you shared it to me but if it is alright…
Do Uncle and your friends know…?
Minho: (nods) Yes…
I opened up to them few months back…
They still respect and consider me as their close friends
and I am so happy about it…
Key: (shrugs) You have good friends…
(gets up to sit on the bed) Can I…?
Minho: (follows and lies down) Sure…
You may lie down like me…
Key: (follows Minho) Thanks…
By the way, let’s be friends…
(offers his hand) Here… a handshake first…
Minho: (smiles and shakes hand)
