Minseok gaped, body trembled, eyes widen in disbelief as the doctor walked out of the room. River of tears momentarily broke from his eyes. It felt like his strength were all up in an instant that his knees weaken resulted for him to prop against the hospital bed.

“Please stop crying. I still have few days remaining.” Joonmyun weakly said as he tightly held his hands.

The doctor gave them the lowdown about his current condition. There’s nothing they can do to cure him and medicine won’t work anymore too. It’s painful for the both of them that Joonmyun only had a week or less to live.

That everything will go back to normal as soon as we woke up.’ Joonmyun thought to himself as he brushed his hand through the other’s hair.

Minseok awakened when he felt some ache on his back because of his position. As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw the younger staring at him then smiled. He can see how much Joonmyun lose weight. His usual white skin turned paler and his cheeks turned sharper with his now noticeable cheekbones. But one thing he’s certain that never lost. It’s Joonmyun's uncon
