Q for Quarrel

26 letters of unrequitedness

# Q for Quarrel:

They were not known as “Tom and Jerry” for no reasons. It was not the first time they had almost quarreled over something childish. Almost, because whenever Jungshin felt things could get intense, he would always step back with a big grin and call Jonghyun name, thus making everything settled.

However, Jungshin did not know why he was being so stubborn this time. Now and then he wished Jonghyun could be more caring and less distant; in fact it bothered him too much that when Jungshin was scattered in thought during their concert in Hong Kong, he actually lost his balance and fell off stage. His wrist hurt, but his heart was even weighted down with disappointment and grief when he saw Jonghyun’s cold-heartedness.

Yet the following day on waking up the bassist was greeted with a warm bowl of porridge on the table. Jonghyun was already in their dorm kitchen, fingers bungled cutting a carrot.

“Just rest, I’ll be in charge of cooking until you heal”, he stuttered.

And that was the only thing Jungshin could hear before choking on the salty porridge.
