- Glimpse of Past -

Squeezing a decent amount of water from the drenched cold towel, Yuta spread the wet cloth on Jaehyun's warm forehead. The boy looked pale as he kept breathing softly and painfully. Yuta's heart broke. Seeing his best friend in this kind of state has always been heartbreaking for him as the blond-haired boy struggled with such kinds of nightmares on a daily basis. They were too lucid for the poor boy to handle which led him to have slight insomnia. He could sleep only for fifteen to eighteen hours a week which is obviously, very unhealthy.

"It's again that dream, isn't it?" Yuta asked as Jaehyun forced his eyes open. The laying brunette sighed heavily, closing his eyes again while covering his face with his cold hands. Yuta could tell the boy had finally got some sleep after a dreadful few days but it got ruined because of that fucking cursed nightmare.

"His face is blurry again but something was different," Jaehyun whispered which caused his best friend to crease his eyebrows. "I saw Taeyong in my dreams. He looked so angelic but he was fading away into dust while telling me I'm precious. Nakamoto, I'm scared. What if something fucks up when I go to meet him?" Jaehyun lowly asked as the frown on his beautiful face was on the array.

"You got me. I won't let anything happen. I will certainly kill the motherfucker when I get him in my grasp." Yuta gritted his teeth but in his grimace, Jaehyun looked hurt and scared. "Bro, cheer up. Taeyong told me that you two will be meeting this Saturday. Have you planned where you will meet?" Yuta tried changing the topic and taking withering Jaehyun to look at the better brighter side. Jaehyun sat up and sighed heavily with a faint smile, understanding that his best friend is trying to distract him.

Yuta was in somewhat prospect that Taeyong will Jaehyun happier and help him heal from the inside. He always wishes the best for his best friend. It hurts him to see his pal struggling from PTSD. Knowing his past love life scarred him very badly, he still can't help the boy.

Jaehyun has always been nervous, scared and very secretive about his sexuality as his so-called parents turned out to be homophobic. It was since he found out about it in his high school days. It was indeed reasonably frightening for the young man.

He could never tell his parents about his secret until some bastard ass teacher at his high school revealed to his parents about him being a part of the LGBTQ community after being caught trying to kiss another boy he liked. He felt ashamed of himself and ran away. Fleeing from his home, Jaehyun came to Seoul. He remembered his aunt as an acquaintance in this big city, he went there and told her everything leaving the part of him being homo.

He stayed there for a while and got himself a job and a small apartment to live in without being a burden on his aunt as his aunt had an abusive relationship with her husband. He always wished if he could help the said woman but for his unfortunate, he couldn't.

At his work, he met this man who he got tempted to. Handsome, young, buff and beautiful. He was so lovely in behaviour no one could ever imagine him being a ruthless, rude person.

But little did young Jaehyun know...

He got to see his real face after they started to date. Called names, abused, starved and probably the worst, raped. Being the abusive and horrible boyfriend that man was, tortured Jaehyun for even the slightest thing which was very traumatic for the boy. One night after getting beaten up mercilessly and wearing torn up clothes, Jaehyun ran away from his yandere boyfriend but ran into this Japanese man who was going home after a long day at work.

Since then, these two became inseparable. Jaehyun was scared to work outside, thinking that man might find him again and take him back to him which he certainly doesn't want. So, he started to look for work online on Instagram and Twitter, finally engaging in kinky stuff.

He found a way to distract him from his traumatic occurrence but was still too scared to fall in love until he met an angel in person.

Lee Taeyong.

Yuta hopes that Jaehyun can get what he strives for. Maybe...

Just maybe...

Taeyong can help him heal and give him the love he has been craving all his life.
