love too, will ruin us

Description

Sometimes, Byul thinks, it would be easier if she loved Yong less. But that’s the thought that hurts the most, more than any of the others, because Byul doesn’t want to go back to how she and Yong used to be before they professed their feelings. Not because she thinks they would be any less closer, or because she thinks they would go back to fighting at least once a month again— but because of the simplest reasons. It makes her happy to love Yong. To know that Yong loves her.

It is a joy to love. The pain she feels, she realizes, is because she has to hide exactly how much.

Foreword

title, opening, and closing line are from the poem "Scheherazade" by Richard Siken, from his compilation "Crush"

basically wrote this fic while inspired by the themes and emotions from Moonbyul's masterpiece of a mini-album, 6equence.

Chapter 1: This all felt so real. I really understood Byul's side, but I wish she had redeemed herself more. Yong only had good and pure intentions, and she was still in the dark about her girlfriend's feelings... Yeah I really wish I had seen Moonbyul more regretful, but, woah! Amazing 🌹❤️‍🩹

Chapter 1: It broke my heart and put it back again better than before. If you have a partner, communication is really the key to a better relationship. I'm so glad they resolve their problem and that they're better than ever, that they're better with each other on and off the cameras.
