The first time Kuanlin saw Jihoon was on a Tuesday. 


Jihoon was hard to miss when he's wearing babypink from head to toe. He passed by Kuanlin in a hurry and it was the same case for the following days. His outfit was screaming attention.


But the first time Kuanlin was able to talk to him was three days later. On a Friday.

Kuanlin was sitting behind the counter, waiting for the hour to pass so he could call it a day and finally close the shop. He has been in the records store his whole life and he was getting tired of the monotonous routine: school plus this part-time job and that equals to life. He walked to a stack of boxes piled atop one another that was keeping the glass door of the entrance open. The topmost box was overflowing with the latest albums of pop artists Kuanlin couldn't even recognize. It was always cleanly organized when the store opens in the morning but at the end of the day it can't be helped after avid fans finish rummaging through the box. He methodically arranged the albums to fit back into the box when he noticed a brightly-clad young man stop right in front of the door. Kuanlin stopped at once to observe the visitor. The stranger was wearing a yellow beanie this time that matches the shirt he’s wearing inside a purple cardigan. It was a weird combination but Kuanlin thought that it somehow fits the boy wearing it.

The boy was shorter than Kuanlin and has big, bright, twinkling eyes which were so focused on reading the sign of the shop that Kuanlin had to clear his throat to get the stranger's attention. 

"May I help you?", offered Kuanlin.

"Uhm, hello. I’m actually new here. Uhm, how do you read that character?" The boy asked randomly and pointed at the signage just above Kuanlin’s head.

Chapter 19: I don't know what to feel. I am so sad this story has been marked complete, but wow that Panwink epilogue is an absolute blessing so THANK YOU ;-; now that I understand what really happened, I really applaud you for thinking of such a plot. It's so complex but at the same time makes sense. And even though I'm sad that old Kuanlin was a 'fallen tree' and had to die for his friends, I'm happy new Kuanlin is there to be with them. It's a bittersweet ending in my opinion, but I love it. I hope you'll write more stories! This one was amazing <3
