    Bookmarker's Notes

    He thought about it the entire walk home. Pondered who would miss him, who could convince him to come a second time, who he would miss the most. Every answer was a repeat, an obvious answer to his ears but not his brain. Jungwon. Jungwon would miss him, Jungwon could convince him to come back here, even though Riki knew he would never do that. And Riki would miss Jungwon the most.

     

    They say you'll remember your first love. No one tells you what to do when it ends.

    Summary

    Later, as they walk back with their bounty of produce, the sun dipping low over the hills, Jungwon says quietly, “Thanks…for being here.”

    Riki turns to look at him. “Where else would I be?”

    Jungwon doesn’t answer right away. Then, “I don’t know. Somewhere bigger. Louder. You don’t seem like the kind of person who stays long in a town like this.”

    “I didn’t think I was,” Riki admits.

    The stars are out, lazily scattered across the navy sky, the moon slung low above the fields like it’s watching them. Cicadas hum, somewhere far but near enough to stitch the silence between stories.

     

    Between the hostile roosters and endless peach trees, Riki's quarter-life-crisis getaway turns from a week, into two, then three, maybe four would be just enough. It'll never be enough. Riki is falling—for the town, for the quiet, and for the boy who makes everything feel like home.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    Riki is exhausted.

    Not “take a long nap and journal about it” exhausted—he’s burnt out. Nine years as an idol, two contracts in, and he can’t remember the last time he danced for joy.

    So he does what any twenty-four-year-old in a quarter-life crisis would do: he vanishes. No glamorous Eurotrip or a silent yoga retreat in Bali. Just a one-way ticket to the quietest town he can find—Hanuel-ri, population: probably less than his debut fancon.

    At the tiny airport, he’s the only passenger under sixty. On a bulletin board, a flyer reads:
    FARMHAND NEEDED. ACCOMMODATION INCLUDED.

    It’s either a scam or a sign. Either way, he takes it.

    There, between hostile roosters and endless peach trees, Riki meets Jungwon—a beautiful, overworked young doctor with illegal dimples and a past just as unexpected as his own.

    One lunch delivery turns into a many. Weeks stretch into something more. And somehow, Riki starts falling—for the town, for the quiet, and for the boy who makes everything feel like home.

    "Do you ever feel like..." Jungwon trailed off.

    "Probably," Riki responded.

    Jungwon chuckled, hearing it made Riki chuckle too.

    "Do you ever feel like you're the only person who still feels it, like the other kids don't?"

    Riki let out a long breath. "Like I'm lying?"

    They both said "yeah" at the same time.

    "I feel like I'm not supposed to still be scared. I should be able to go to school, come out of my room and stuff, you know?"

    Riki nodded deeply, because he knew. Really knew.

    Summary

    “You’re such a liar, you know that?!” He shouts.

    Jay nearly stumbles backward at the sudden outburst, Jungwon is furious.

    “You said you didn’t care! You said it wasn’t your concern, so why the hell did you look at me like that?! Like I just—like I just ripped your heart out?” The brunette spits, venom coloring his voice.

    Jay blinks rapidly, not even hiding how taken off guard he was but that doesn’t stop the defensiveness from creeping in, “Because maybe you did, Jungwon!”

     

    (or: Park Jay learns that being in love with his best friend of seventeen years isn’t the hard part—saying it to him is. Because, as much as he hates to admit it, Park Jay is a coward, and words are futile devices.)
