The Next Day
Noon Time
“Minho…
Good morning…
(looks for Minho)…
Where are you…?
I will cook something…”
Key gets up from his bed and looks for Minho.
“Where could he be…?
(calling…)
Minho…Minnie…
Hey…Where are you…?”
He goes out of his room and searches in wonder.
Many times of open and none but still Minho - nowhere to be found.
Thinking…
“Oh…The bathroom…”
Shaking his head, goes back to his room and heads straight to his bathroom, gently grabs the door knob but hesitates.
Instead, he moves closely then presses his ear at the door.
He gently exhales upon hearing slow to medium drips speed of running water…
“Hhhmm…
So, he is inside…
(speaks louder)...
Minho…
I will prepare our brunch meal...
Just go head to the kitchen after taking your bath…
Good morning…!”
Forty five minutes has passed.
Key finished preparing everything for the brunch meal and for a bit of a wait, he now wonders why Minho has not shown up.
Puckering his lips…
“What’s going on with Minho…
He would not be…
like doing something wrong, would he?
Hhhmmm…
Need to check on him…”
Standing by the bathroom door, Key calls on Minho.
“Minho…
What’s going on…?”
No answer…calls on again…
“Minho…
Hey…!”
After some loud knocks and calls, Key gives up; goes out of his room then heads towards a room where keys masterpieces are kept.
“Okay…
Here’s for my bathroom…
Geez…Minho…
What is wrong with you…?”
Quickly he opens his bathroom.
Opens the shower area thinking Minho must have slept in the bathtub.
“Aaahh…
He is not here…
and the tub is almost filled up…
Hhhmmm…
Probably the changing area…”
So he goes, opens the door and still no Minho.
Key starts to feel frustrated and terrible.
He sits on the couch and rests his anxious self – head lying on the headrest with his eyes closed.
Stays in that condition for a little while.
When collected and calm, he opens his eyes and moves his head forward then moves up and walks towards his wardrobe area saying…
“Am sorry Minho…
I was so unfair from the very beginning…
But, thank you for not allowing me to feel so guilty about it.
You have been wonderful and generous…
I wonder if you can wait…
But…
(sees his mirror with post it notes)
Wwhoa…(moves closer)…”
Written on the first post it note: ***Sorry for making you worry***
And on the second note: ***please check the drawer***
Key does as written, opens the drawer and eyes widens sighting his name on an envelope, he mutters…
“Key…
To My One and Only Love…
Aaasshhh…
Cheesy Minho…Silly…”
Even so, Minho’s declaration helps Key calms the stirring sadness and anxieties engulfing his mind, body and soul.
Opens the letter…
Key…
Thank you…
Do not be guilty – I treasure every minute or second being with you.
Being with you is like…
A realized love story that started being written.
Before, my mind was always filled up with question like…
What if…
Always a question unanswered...
Until…
I do not have to state it, right…?
Am just so happy…
But…you see…
Reality checks on you…
And I am fine with that…
Please do not worry of me…
I will be fine…
Onew hyung will take care of me…
Best wishes…
Minho…
p.s.
‘Til we meet again…
I will always love you…
Tears fall…
“Uuuhh…
The letter is gonna get wet...”
Key quickly wipes the soaked part of the letter then takes a deep breath feeling happy and relieved.
Utters…
“Again, thank you Minho for not making it hard for me to decide…
You are also very generous and a very loving person…
I love you too…”
