Kim Seungmin ⁻ ⁽³⁰⁾

You looked up and there he was, the cutest boy your eyes had ever seen: Kim Seungmin.

---

For many years, they lived two houses apart. The Kims were your neighbors, and you had a close friendship with Seungmin since childhood. You would get together in the afternoons to play games or just to talk.

You grew up with him until you were twelve. One sad winter, the Kim family moved away; you never heard from Seungmin again.

Until that day. Six years later.

You were walking your puppy in the park on a hot, sunny day. You momentarily lost sight of Toby, your pet, and he ran off into a boy's arms. Your eyes met his, and you recognized him immediately. It was Seungmin.

After so many years, they resumed their friendship, but this time, Seungmin came with a burden on his shoulders: he was an addict.

However, they slowly went from friendship to flirting, and after that, to a formal relationship.

Seungmin was the ideal man for you, but he had a big problem. It was becoming increasingly difficult for him to climb out of that bottomless pit of illicit substances. And over time, that began to affect you too.

You asked him many times to get away from that addiction, but even though he tried, he just couldn't.

Last-minute canceled dates, out-of-control parties, words spoken impulsively. He was breaking your heart, and the worst part was, you always forgave him, believing his empty promises to change.

---

They had a date tonight. You waited for him for several hours, but Seungmin never showed up. You received a notification from one of his friends; it was a picture of Seungmin drinking at a party. He did it again.

You cried yourself to sleep in your bed, but in the middle of the night, someone woke you up by ringing the doorbell insistently. Toby got alarmed and started barking.

-"Love..."

It was Seungmin's unmistakable voice, slurring his words. You opened the door to confront him, and found him sitting in front of your door, reeking of grass.
