      GBAS 67 Cover
      by mimi At a loss for words, Jooin's lips parted and closed. As the silence continued, Jooin, having finally come to his senses, lowered his head deeply and said. "...Let's just eat." Muttering like a sigh, Jooin speared a well-cooked carrot with his fork. As only the clattering sound of silverware filled the space between the two, Hyunwoo, remembering something, tapped the floor to get Jooin's attention. "Hyung, by the way. I've been curious for a while, but you know that yellow person who comes every…

      by mimi After that, Jooin went from one member's house to another, relying on their hospitality. The last stop was Namyoung's house. After hearing Jooin's story, Namyoung's mother, who had shed a flood of tears, offered him a rooftop apartment near the band's practice room, and just like that, he gained another refuge. She insisted that since things had come to this, she absolutely had to pack him a lunch, so he was even dragged against his will to the CSAT testing site. In his hands was the same lunchbox as…

      GBAS 65 Cover
      by mimi The misfortune probably began from there. Unlike Jooin’s mother, who was born into a brilliant, elite family where it was hard to find someone who wasn’t a professional, Jooin’s father was a dragon born once in a century from a small fishing village that could barely even be called a humble stream. The couple had the same profession. It was said that the two, who met during their internship at a university hospital, recognized each other from their very first meeting. Even though both families…

      GBAS 64 Cover
      by mimi As he stepped inside the shop, a cool breeze from the air conditioner brushed against the nape of his neck. Jooin, who had just thrown on a shirt, properly fastened the collar in the chilly air and spoke to the director's back. "Why did you call me in?" At that, the director, who had been leaning against the office door and looking outside, turned around. He seemed to hesitate for a moment, then let out a small sigh and opened his mouth. "I felt I should tell you." "What is it?" At Jooin's…

      TWELVE 56 Cover
      by mimi “Hey, Gi Seoin.” I withdrew my hand that had been caught and instead pulled on the guy’s wrist. At the same time, I bent my waist and tilted my head up to see his face, which was buried in the shadows. “Are you... crying?” He said he was sorry, and since he was going this far, I had no reason to be angry anymore. To be precise, all my energy to be angry had drained away. “I’m not crying...” Gi Seoin, speaking feebly, lifted his face slightly to look at me. He wasn't actually…

      TWELVE 55 Cover
      by mimi I entered an unused room and locked the door. I tried and tried to empty my head while staying completely alone, but my racing emotions did not settle easily. The same thought kept coming to me. What did I do so wrong that I had to be treated that way by Gi Seoin and suffer this much? The thing that pained me most was that I simply could not understand the reason Gi Seoin was angry. He was always like this. He explodes in rage without explanation and backs a person into a corner. He expects me to…

      TWELVE 54 Cover
      by mimi “That, I... .” I had to refuse, but I didn't have a clue what to say. I was afraid he would think the reason for my refusal was because he was a man. It wasn't that, but because there was someone waiting for me. “I... .” “I’m sorry if I made you uncomfortable.” Oh boy. While hesitating, I missed the timing to speak. Kim Hyunwoo showed a smile, but I couldn't believe it was sincere. I hurriedly waved my palms and said. “No, I wasn't uncomfortable at all. Just, I...…

      TWELVE 53 Cover
      by mimi “Whoa! Look who it is!” “It’s Seungkyung!” “Wow, he returned alive!” The Benwood people welcomed me as if I were a hero returning from a battlefield. It was hard to play it cool because I felt so embarrassed and apologetic. “I should have come sooner, I’m sorry.” “Aiyee! Sorry? What are you talking about?” “It made sense. How does a homeless person even get into a house? It’s seriously chilling.” “Are you okay now?” “Yes, thanks to your concern. I…

      TWELVE 52 Cover
      by mimi It was the noise made by Gi Seoin as he roughly set down his knife. I looked at Gi Seoin. Not a single trace of a smile remained on his face. “By what standard do you decide who suits whom?” It was Gi Seoin’s question, and Jeon Juseok brightened up, perhaps thinking the guy was identifying with him. “Isn’t this a capitalist society? It’s this, this.” Jeon Juseok made a circle by touching the tips of his thumb and index finger together and flicked it. Seeing that, Gi Seoin…

      TWELVE 51 Cover
      by mimi Before going to meet Jeon Juseok, I exceptionally picked out Gi Seoin’s clothes for him. There was only one criterion: do not look rich. Jeon Juseok is a snob who values appearances and a nearsighted man who can only see that much, so if Gi Seoin's attire was worse than expected, there was a high chance he would lose interest. The problem was that all of Gi Seoin’s clothes were luxury brands and sleek. Regardless, I searched for the least impressive clothes among them. Of course, I only told…
