It was like a movie....the sad thing is movies always end.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

In the party things were going as usual, music as loud as it could get, everyone dancing and bumping into each other from how tight the space between each person was, some guys looking at us and others throwing themselves in the first chance they got. Hani had her routine, she rejected any meddling guy that got close to her at the beginning, she danced with us, provoked with her eyes and if someone got her attention, she would go for him. Sunmi did something like that as well, except they would take turns to take care of little Hyukjae.

 

They didn't do that this time. By the time midnight had passed both where already in different tables with attractive guys while I watched from the bar. For a moment I felt out of place, for a moment I thought I didn't fit in all of this, but I had been in this situation for 2 months...why? Was it because I wanted? Or was it because Sunmi and Hani liked these type of stuff. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

"Could I offer you a to drink?" A voice distracted me.

 

 

 

"No thank yo- Donghae?" I was surprised to see him here, he never went out to parties. "What are you doing here?" 

 

 

 

"We were craving a party before the exam," he sat next to me and pointed towards Chanyeol who was dancing with a girl on the dance floor. I barely recognized him, only did cause of his curly hair. 

 

 

 

"Wow, that's a surprise." I took a sip from my water bottle. 

 

 

 

"You don't drink?"

 

 

 

"I'm still underage," I continued drinking. 

 

 

 

"Right, I forget," he smiled and looked up at the roof. For the first time it seemed as if Donghae the great didn't know what to say. 

 

 

 

"Are you here with someone other than Chanyeol ?" I was nervous.

 

 

 

"Who else was I going to come with?" 

 

 

 

"I don't know, another guy," I whispered. We spoke close to each other since the music was too loud. It made me feel weird. 

 

 

 

"No not at all, unless you think of Chanyeol as closeted gay or something," he joked,"What about you? Did you come with a guy?" 

 

 

 

"No, just Sunmi and Hani." 

 

 

 

How can you hear the silence in a club where the music was at the highest volume? I did....being with Donghae after the conversation between the girls and me made me feel nervous and scared.. 'If he kissed you out of the blue...would you get mad?' I couldn't stop thinking about Hani's words and I couldn't stop imagining it either, why do I feel like this?

 

 

 

 

 

We did everything as if we could feel the silence, I drank my water while he took sips from his beer. Three guys had walked over to him in 5 minutes (yes I counted them) and he rejected them all in an unknown way to me, he only whispered something to them on their ear and they would leave immediately. What was wrong with Donghae? Why did he attract so much attention?

 

His messy hair which complimented him well and a profile which looked like a Greek statue. He wore a black leather jacket, black jeans and a checkered red and black shirt....why was I paying so much attention to him? 

 

 

 

We locked eyes three times in two minutes ( yes I counted them and it got to a point where it was almost synchronized) we would smile and look away, it was impossible for me not to get closer, it was such a natural attraction, I guess those guys felt the same way when they talked to him so easily, it

Chapter 22: Thank you so much for translating and all your hard work! This story spoke to my heart. I believe I've found this story for a reason. now I'm leaving with a slightly different perspective on life itself. So beautiful, well written, insightful and poetic in it's own way. This story is a masterpiece.

Chapter 22: Chapter 22: The story is inspiring.
I think this is one of the best fics I've ever enjoyed. All of them have been through some many hurt and sorrow, those pasts changed their lives and made them a sober person than others under the drunken appearance. They all have their wises. This fact somehow gives hopes. There's no baddie, only story. (Just like how Donghae explained Siwon's act, everyone has their own life trajectory)
Good story, I appreciate much.

Haven't read this yet, but as a bit of advice maybe you can post the dialogue (screen-shot it or any other ways) giving you the permission to translate the story. I saw other translators did so to prevent authorized problems.
