Having everything that most people consider the pinnacle of success—money, a thriving business, a collection of rare cars, and a massive mansion—Hyunjin still felt an emptiness. A quiet, almost imperceptible void inside that neither luxury, nor power, nor fleeting connections could fill. It all felt like a beautiful set piece, but not a life. He craved the presence of someone special—a complex, vivid, unpredictable person who could disrupt his measured but empty rhythm of life, adding chaos, emotion, and a real breath of air. Such people cannot be bought or found on a schedule… they come on their own, when they choose to. And Felix appeared exactly like that. Suddenly, like a missing piece Hyunjin had been longing for, appearing out of nowhere. He looked as if he had stepped off a magazine cover: soft facial features, almost glowing with freshness and youth, a slender figure. But the gaze… the gaze was different from ordinary beauty. Eager, attentive, sharp, cunning—as if Felix saw right through Hyunjin, seeing everything he hid from others, and even that which was hidden from himself. Their meeting took place at one of those events where Hyunjin had long been operating on autopilot: music, laughter, shimmering lights, conversations blending into a monotonous background. And suddenly, a new, bright color cut through that background. Hyunjin turned and saw Felix standing by a column, illuminated by a soft golden light. He was looking straight at him, without breaking eye contact, as if he had been waiting for him specifically. Hyunjin took a step forward, then another, and Felix didn't pull away. They went out onto the balcony, glass of wine after glass of wine, conversations about the random and the important, laughter and silences that didn't feel awkward. Hyunjin realized that this was exactly what he had been searching for all these years. Felix was the one who could fill his world with real life, and fate, it seemed, had not made a mistake. Three months later, they were living together in Hyunjin's mansion. Hyunjin spoiled Felix, surrounding him with attention and care, while Felix sometimes played the role of someone naive and slightly playful.
