Summary
"You look... more free."
Sanghyeok says as he watches the man he loves sleeping before him. "Are you happier now?"
Jeong Jihoon, he watches how the man's chest rises and falls as he sleeps.
It's funny. He should know the answer—he knows the answer, he knows that Jihoon would be happy if he learns that Sanghyeok is dead. Still, he can't help but ask; his soul and heart still long for another answer, after all.
But even if he does everything to ask him that one question, he can't. Sanghyeok is dead, and Jihoon has no idea. He's now just a phantom, a specter, a spirit that still lingers.
Sanghyeok wonders, does he still have an unfulfilled wish?
He does.
Maybe this is his punishment for every sin he has committed against Jihoon.
Jihoon certainly didn’t care that he’s now dead, he has Hyeonjoon now, doesn’t he? Hyeonjoon who was Jihoon’s wish, Hyeonjoon who was Jihoon’s world—even when Sanghyeok and Jihoon lived under the same roof. And now, Sanghyeok is nothing but a spirit that lingers because he doesn’t know how to let go.
