With Love

Description

People live and love, and get scarred from both.

Foreword

A/N: This is a request from a very good friend of mine that's long due. I kind of crammed this so that it wouldn't be another fic that I end up abandoning halfway, so the quality may not be that great. It's not precisely what you requested either. I still hope it's alright and that you'd enjoy it. And I'm sorry! I hope you prepare enough tissues. Just so you know it pained me writing this as well. Partly inspired by Letters From Iwo Jima.

Chapter 1: I couldn't stop crying after reading the story. I rarely found stories with different/unique plot. Usually the characters were students and the plot s are almost the same. However this story was placed during a war and the main character died in the end. The friendship was on point. Even though they loved the same person, they were good friends. Thank you for the story author-nim. Keep writing.

Chapter 1: I'm so stupid, I forgot to subscribe the last time -__-"

Aaah I can't leave a long comment like thepencilskirts, but I want you to know that the story touches my heart (and the other readers' too, it seems) and I'm crying reading this. In the middle I picked up that Kyungsoo is Bomi's bf and I wondered until the end is one of them going to die, or they'll come back together, hell, even when Baekhyun was shot I still hoped he'd make it.

When I imagine Bomi through Baek's perspective, I think that's what break my heart.

Thank you for the story :)

Chapter 1: "After this war ends, if you don’t mind, would you like to come with me and eat the fish bread there together?"

sadly, they never did </3

so i reached home & instantly i sat quietly to read this. it took me a second read to digest everything and when it finally hit me, i could feel my eyes b with tears.

typical baekhyun would have been someone with such strong personality & one who knows exactly what he wants. but i love how vulnerable & sensitive he is in this story. like how he writes letters & tells her all those stories but never actually find the courage to ever send one. he tolerates kyungsoo - it could've been easier for him to hate kyungsoo & distance himself from kyungsoo but instead, they build such a pure friendship out of the cruel fate. there's a silver lining indeed. he might have lost the love of his life but gain a friend, a brother - one that is perhaps a greater gift than the latter.

i love how you use the moon as a metaphor of how bomi is in baekhyun's eyes. like how she's always been there, always bright & lovely that he could've probably reached if he took a step forward but sadly he never did. it's a sad thing, isn't it? to admire someone from afar but to never find the courage to do something with it.

the saddest part about it is the fact baekhyun has always been the first. the first to meet bomi, the first to witness her transition, the first to taste her mom's rice & soup, the first to fall in love... but second too late to reach out for her feelings. i have a soft spot for one-sided love & one-sided love would always win me over.

i could never understand the purpose of a war but to have any of your loved ones fighting for your country, you couldn't help but to always worry about them no matter how many times they'd tell you that things would be okay </3

thank you shida. you've always been the meanest kindest person to exist but you never failed to grant our wishes, silently that is. i love you ida bye.
