Summary
Euijoo is here, just as Nicholas left him, and in the cloud-covered light of early summer, he looks more bronzed than he does golden. There’s no way to tell if he was ever golden at all, or if it was a trick of the light. Something Nicholas unfairly projected onto him.
Nicholas wants to know more. He’s weak to impulse and powerless against obsession. Euijoo sits snugly at the intersection of both.
(OR: Seven years after he ran away, Nicholas is forced to return to his hometown. Despite everything that's changed, he still finds himself inexplicably drawn to Byun Euijoo.)

Summary
Before he could do it, Euijoo speaks up. “Have we met before?”
He retracts his hand that’s reaching to grab the white napkin by the plate to look at Euijoo. Nicholas is sure Euijoo has a face he won’t ever be able to forget if he’s seen it in passing or somewhere else. Beautiful smile, upturned lips, tanned skin that makes him look like he’ll probably make Nicholas sweat under the blanket if they’re pressed up against each other because he just seems to exude warmth.
“No.” Nicholas says, he’s never been more certain about anything in his life. “I don’t think so.”
“You look—” Euijoo trails off, “very familiar.”
“If this is a pickup line about how I’m the man of your dreams, I’m going to walk out of this restaurant right now, Euijoo.”
