Summary
“Uh,” it comes out as little more than a croak, so he clears his throat. “But why?”
“No particular reason,” Shotaro shrugs. His hands move away, but not before giving him a small squeeze. Only then does Wonbin realize with slight disappointment that they’ve arrived at his table. “Because you’re interesting. And you take amazing pictures.” He pauses, contemplative, then shoots Wonbin a cheeky smile. “And maybe because night shifts are boring, and having a pretty face around makes it better.”
It takes a second to register. But when it does, Wonbin’s face flames.
Shotaro turns around laughing.
Wonbin has always travelled the world in search of the next. The next city, the next view, the next photo, the next opportunity. But then he meets Shotaro: barista, 22, with all the subtlety of a tropical cyclone — and he thinks maybe, just maybe– he’s found a reason to stay.

Summary
But just as he lies flat on his back and stares into the sun, prepared to dissolve the iron grip he has on his battered body, Shotaro squats down next to him and holds the shards of his being up to the light. He purses his lips and scrunches his brows, then pieces Wonbin together – slowly, carefully, like a puzzle he wouldn’t mind spending the rest of his life learning and learning to love – bone to bone, muscle to muscle, until he’s whole again.
Or, Wonbin splinters under the weight of everything that he's not.

Summary
Thing is, though, Wonbin isn’t sure what drives him to do this either — why he watches as Shotaro leans in just enough to whisper into some man’s ear, or as Shotaro looks up through his lashes and thanks another softly for a new gift, or as Shotaro’s shift ends for the night and it’s a new Bentley taking him down a different street.
He doesn’t know why Shotaro can be so indifferent about... everything, from their past to their present to being an escort and to Wonbin, just as he doesn’t know why the memory of Shotaro’s warmth haunts his too-big bed despite him being the one who’d walked away first.
In summary: Three years after Wonbin leaves Ulsan without looking back, he runs into Shotaro. Shotaro, who's long-haired and pretty and flirting with strangers for a living.
