Bookmark Notes:
The second Seunghyun speaks, stating his ID number before his food is shoved at him, whispers spread across the eating station like wildfire. VLF, they say. Abbreviations count as half-words but Jiyong wants to save all of his for Seunghyun. He wolfs down his soup and shoves the bread into the pocket of his coveralls, sneaking from table to table to plop down beside him.
Seunghyun is chained to the bench. The shackle rattles against his leg when he turns.
“You look like shit,” Jiyong murmurs, shoving the bread into his mouth.
Seunghyun’s eyebrows shoot up; he swallows and ducks his head to pull the bread out by one handcuffed arm. “I love you too,” he says.
When Jiyong just stares, Seunghyun shrugs, a corner of his mouth turning up. “Just thought you’d want to know.”
For a second they’re back in that bar, trading snipes over bottles with the labels peeled off. He watches Seunghyun’s eyes rove over his features and his face goes soft, just for a second.
