Chap12
Half Moon (Before Cross road)
"Minjun hyung"
Wooyoung said when he found the spirit of his hyung at the entrance of the flower shop the next morning.
"I want to know a few things."
Minjun asked in a hard tone and Wooyoung nodded.
They entered the flower shop and moved to the store to talk quietly.
"I am alive?"
Minjun asked first and Wooyoung nodded
"I don't remember what happened at our first meeting, I don't remember what you told me so I only remember you and there's no point in talking about it."
Minjun didn't want to be like this but was afraid to leave taecyeon.
"Hyung you have to go back ... please"
Wooyoung said softly with cheeks swollen on purpose not to cry
"Boy, I ..."
"Please hyung .... if you don't return, your body will die and if that happens..."
"I'm sorry I can't do it"
He looked down, clenching his fists in her lap.
"Minjun hyung, I need you to be happy. You probably don't remember it, but you were my salvation. Since I met you I have a place to return with a family waiting for me, I don't feel alone anymore."
The sound of a chair crawling made Minjun look up just to see Wooyoung kneeling in front of him.
"I beg you, hyung"
Wooyoung sobbed
"We need you"

"Welcome"
Minjun said in a slightly muffled voice as Taecyeon returned home.
"Sorry, I came later than other days, didn't I? I have had some problems with one of the authors of my team, apparently has been sick for half a year and I am under a lot of pressure"
Taecyeon was still smiling as he spoke, he felt no pressure now that he was home
"That's good ... you have to go to bathe so you can sleep better"
Minjun said trying to smile even though his eyes filled with tears, for the first time he was grateful that Taecyeon couldn't see him now. Very pathetic
"I'm so tired that I wanted to sleep
Taecyeon made his puppy eyes take off his neck tie and Minjun cocked his head to the side looking at his ROOMMATE. How much would this person lack? At least he was not going to remember it, was he? That might be a bit selfish, but it reassured him.
"You'll forget me, too."
He said quietly and Taecyeon turned.
"Did you say something?"
He asked with his hands on the buttons of his shirt
"Yes, I said stop complaining and go take a shower."
Minjun used the voice a little more ironic now, as when they had just met
"Okay, Mom."
Taecyeon used a smile and entered the bathroom while Minjun used his powers to move his clothes.
When Taecyeon left, he wore his sweatpants in his pajamas with a sleeveless T-shirt in the heat of the night.
"Where are you?"
Taecyeon asked suddenly, something unusual for both of them.
"Hey? I'm here before you"
Taecyeon looked down a little, hoping to fulfill the idea of looking at Minjun
"Thank you for coming to my lonely life."
He said suddenly and something exploded in Minjun causing him to fall to his knees on the ground. An intense pain in his chest that began to grow constantly and then stopped like an earthquake inside.
"It's true, I'm dying"
He thought to himself by looking at his hand that became more transparent as his fear grew more solid.
"Let's go to sleep now"
Minjun got up and walked to the bed sitting on the edge with weakness
"Yes"
Taecyeon took a couple of leaps before falling back on the bed and opening his embrace so that Minjun could get into it
"Why are you so quiet today?"
Taecyeon asked, and Minjun laughed.
"I'm sorry, I thought it would be better this way since you wanted to sleep"
Taecyeon smiled and hummed.
"It's okay if it's your voice."
He said in a deep voice that meant he was beginning to fall asleep and could see Minjun
"Can I sing for you?"
Minjun's voice seemed to have returned to normal and Taecyeon felt more relaxed, but that was just what he wanted because he didn't know how to tell the truth and didn't want Taecyeon to see him like that.
"It's a song that I listen to today so that it doesn't go well"
He said with nostalgia
"All right, your voice is incredible"
Looking up at the cherry trees
Talking about a dream of a time in the future
From that time, how much longer do we have
i wonder about the time that has passed
The view of your back leaving me
I still remember it even right now
Since that day, i have been wondering a little
Whether i have matured into an adult
The spring breeze
If only some things can come true
i will express this thought to you
The two of us running trough the season
Don't forget i say goodbye again
When he finished singing he looked at his side where Taecyeon was completely asleep and smiled with tearful eyes and the pain in his chest intensifying. He got up carefully and sat down on the couch with his back to Taecyeon as he calmed his thoughts.
"Why are you awake?"
Taecyeon asked suddenly and Minjun jumped slightly
"You can't sleep?"
Asked again and Minjun bit his lip
"Taec...there's something I must tell you"
He whispered and Taecyeon sat down
"Ghosts don't sleep"
Minjun said tightening the sheet under his fingers
"Why, then, did you want to "sleep" here?"
Taecyeon asked completely unaware of the situation
"I wanted to annoy you ... that was fun."
Minjun laughed at the memory and Taecyeon did too.
"Now that you know my secret ... you must sleep, okay?"
Minjun looked at Taecyeon and hugged him in spite of all the pain he was going through, he was still smiling
"Okay ... but then just stay here by my side"
Minjun nodded, returning Taecyeon to the bed as he hummed to sleep. He did not realize that tears were beginning to escape his eyes.
----------------------------------------
"Are you ready hyung?"
Wooyoung asked Minjun slightly and he nodded.
"Hyung will come in a moment ... you just have to cross his path, okay?"
Minjun nodded once more and Wooyoung looked at him sadly.
"I promise I'll tell you everything you want to know."
Minjun smiled a little and nodded.
"Seulong hyung Can you come here for a moment?"
Wooyoung screamed and a few footsteps were heard through the wooden hallway when the tall man appeared through the door and walked towards the young man without knowing that Minjun was there. An explosion of light flashed across the room just for the view of Wooyoung and thousands of light bubbles filled the room floating around before disappearing and returning the room to the dark
"What's wrong, Woo?"
Asked Seulong uneasy
"Ah?...ah! I've forgotten...I'm sorry hyung"
Wooyoung wanted to cry but he couldn't do it now so he just smiled as if nothing and Seulong nodded his head
"Little"
He muttered shaking the boy's hair.
