Prologue
18 years of loving you, and the one year it mattered.Suho sighed as he looked out the train window it had been eighteen years he'd watched his friends grow with him, grow with eachother, fall in love. He was twenty five now; a successful business man slowly working his way up the food chain, twenty five and still no one to come home to. He lived in an apartment in the midst of Seoul music banners everywhere SM promoted everywhere the stuff teenages listen to these days Suho pondered as the latest Super Junior song blared through the bullet train. The train stopped Suho hopped out nothing out of the ordinary, he had tones of paperwork to do, he remembered when his days were carefree when he smiled a lot, when he could still hold Lay close to his heart, then she came along, she stole him took his heart away he fell so hard for her, and even then Suho didn't stop loving him
i'm such an idiot he thought as he stepped into the elevator he clicked the eighteenth story, he picked the eighteenth story because that's how many years he'd met Lay, the two were still close just Suho had to distance himself, the pain was still there what made it worse is that Lay had a child. He hated the child, he hated Lay's wife but what he hated most was that he couldn't hate them Lay loved them and they were perfect together, and here was himself all alone and bitter. The elevator opened he dragged himself to his apartment door and fumbled with his keys the door was open that's odd Suho contemplated before opening the door.
"Hey" Lay smiled there was sadness in his eyes something that made Suho's heart break.
"Yixing?" Suho questioned more to himself than To anyone else
"that's me"
"What are you even doing here? Where's Victoria? Where's Luna?"
Lay cleared his throat while Suho looked at him expectantly with care in his eyes
"Joonmyun, I filed for a divorce"
Suho's eyes widened looking shocked he didn't know whether to laugh or cry he still had a chance, but then he wondered how sad Yixing must feel right now and composed himself.
"I'm so sorry Yixing, how? I mean why? You two were fine when I came round last month" Suho looked worried he really did fear for Yixing's well being
"it's a long story" Lay laughed bitterly as he leaned against the leather sofa, arms crossed
Suho just looked at him
"you have some explaining to do"
