Ok Minho.   You can do this.   ‘Hey how’s it going?’  No. Too obvious.   ‘Listen. I need to talk to you.’  No way, he’ll think someone’s died if you sound that serious. And then he’ll freak out before you can even start to explain. You know what he’s like.   ‘A’yo wassup?’ What, are you a gangster now?    ‘Hi Kibum. Can I talk to you for a sec?’ Finally. Stick with that one. It’s the best you’re going to get. Good, now where are you going to go from there?   ‘I just have something to say.’ Oh well done. Stating the obvious. Always a good start. You think he won’t reply all snarky if you start with that? Good luck.   ‘I’ve done a lot of thinking recently.’ I’m surprised your one brain cell can cope with it <-- That. Is the reply you’ll get if you go with that one.   ‘How are things with Jonghyun going?’ Oh, an icebreaker. What, to relax him? You ing idiot. Do you want to have an emotional breakdown during your little speech? Because if you say that you are literally asking for it.   ‘I need to get something off my chest. It’s been eating at me for a while and I just need to get it out. Please don’t interrupt me because I don’t think I’ll be able to carry on.’ Alright. Serious, but not someone-dying-serious. I like it. Let’s go with that one.   ‘I know we didn’t get on much when we first met,’ Understatement of the year.   ‘but since then I’ve come to regard you as one of my closest friends. I feel like I can just be myself around you. You make me happy when you‘re around, you look after me even though I’m only a tiny bit younger than you. I just feel…nice when you‘re here.’   Okay, reign it in. Get to the point.   ‘The thing is, I- over the years I’ve grown to like you a lot. More than I should.’   He’ll probably try and interrupt at this point. Asking what the hell you’re on about. Think of something to cut him off.   ‘I know that your happy with Jonghyun. You both love each other, I get that. I’m not saying this to try and break you up or ruin your relationship. I want you to be happy and if that’s with Jonghyun then I can live with it.’   What a massive ing lie. You’re not fine with it at all. It breaks your heart every time you see them together. But you don’t want Kibum to feel sorry for you or even worse: guilty. The sacrifices you make for love.   ‘Please don’t think of me any differently after this, I don’t want to loose our friendship. But I can’t do this anymore. I can’t keep it in. It feels like a monster-’  No not a  monster, you
