[SEVENTEEN/ Wonshua] I Love My Cat Unilaterally
Memoir 10: Wonwoo's one sided-love
"About 4-5 billion years ago, a planet after a string of wandering days crashed into the earth, ending the status of an hermit thousands of miles away but nowhere to be able to rely on. After that unexpected encounter, the debris and dust gathered, gathered into a silent celestial body, patiently orbiting the Earth ever since.
That is the Moon.
But even if that celestial body is only facing the Earth all its life, the nature of the Earth still has to revolve around the Sun. Ironically, does the Moon ever complain or turn off that light? Being halcyon with all love, the Moon has been and would be around for a lifetime of a celestial body, for Earth alone."
When reading these lines from the novel with a bitter aftertaste, Wonwoo couldn't help but feel confused. If you already know that what you do is meaningless, why do you insist on pursuing that one and only person? The Earth now has more than 7 billion people and there are certainly people among them who are even more deserving of love. So, he was surprised that a completely sane person like the main character in the novel - a person who once declared that he would never believe in love, ended up only knowing fall in this ridiculous thing called "blind one-sided love".
But no one in the world can predict anything, not even Wonwoo, of course. No one expected that, now he himself would fall into that situation.
That night, even though Joshua tried his best to convince him that he would maintain the form of a cat until the "right time", Wonwoo still insisted on dragging him shopping. "I can't let a guest like you wear nothing but my uniform sweater! And I can't let you wear my clothes either!" He said that while pressing Joshua's hand a blue hoodie, with a face that couldn't be more determined, then pushed him back into the changing room, before pulling back the curtain.
- Wonwoo hyung, he just needs that hoodie. It's imported from Japan with high quality, so thick and warm, buy more coats and he'll get too hot - Hansol poked his head out from the counter as soon as he saw his hyung crouching in the line of coats, later quickly returned to the female customers with a handsome smile full of business, making them feel their heart beat and their feet tremble, swearing to death that they would come back here to buy things again. High and straight nose bridge, soft brown hair, porcelain white skin... if a half-blood like Hansol weren't so beautiful, this shop probably wouldn't even exist till today, especially when it's founded by a young one.
- Are you doing well these days?
- Look at the clothes in your hand, if you buy half of them, I'll be rich enough. - Hansol raised his eyebrows, rolled his eyes and ponted at the jackets and shoes on his hyung's hands. - But hey, I didn't know you were such a person. Just met yesterday, went on a date today.
The two words "dating" that Hansol deliberately emphasized were like the fire alarm in the house, causing Wonwoo's mind to suddenly become chaotic and he frantically dropped some jackets. The frightened face slowly turned red. Yet, he stubbornly fooled himself into thinking that his face still looked the same as usual, he still put on a very serious expression over that intense red:
- Dating what? Just going to buy clothes.
Hansol couldn't help but burst out laughing. His embarrassed yet serious face makes people want to take pictures to use as a meme. Wonwoo looks at Hansol who died laughing with a face flushed, clearly showing his displeasure, however he doesn't even bother to accept it, continuing to focus on choosing Joshua's shoes.
A few minutes later, Joshua walked out of the dressing room, and sine then was unable to took his eyes off reflection in the large-sized mirror as soon as he stepped outside. The warm long-sleeve hoodie with jeans and mallard converse shoes really suit both his face and slim figure, giving him a lively yet childish look. He twirled around a few times in front of the mirror, his hands constantly stroking the warm cotton of his cap. Wonwooo saw him so amused, swiftly can't help but smiled softly and said:
- Do you like it?
In response, his eyes widened, glittering brightly and cheerfuly nods, the smile on his lips just now was brighter than the morning sun. Wonwoo looks at him with satisfaction, his heart racing in the chest.
- It suits you very well. - Wonwoo let out a velvety voice that melts the listener, expression satisfied. Wringing the clothes he had picked up onto his elbows, he began to manually adjust Joshua's hood so that his cat ears wouldn't show. - Can you look up? I'll fix your hat, it'll be hard if you keep your head down like that.
As soon as his hand touched, Joshua subconsciously grasped the hem of his shirt, his neck pulled back a bit as if he were avoiding it, but his eyes were filled with enjoyment. Wonwoo could feel it, he's always discreetly paying attention to his every little movement, and even though he scolds himself saying it's like a pervert, he still can't control his thoughts always around Joshua. He unconsciously let out a sigh at his helplessness, politely not asking what he was afraid of. However, Wonwoo still showed concern as he raised his hand to Joshua's head and patted him a few times as if to comfort.
Perhaps because of this loving coaxing, he relaxed his body, and timidly raised his head. Under the soft strands of hair that drooped over his eyes and under the stacked array of bright lights from the electric lights, his rosy face opposite Wonwoo was now truly stunning. He was motionless for a few seconds, then realizing what he was doing to an older one, he quickly withdrew his hand.
- I... I'm sorry! I've lost my mind. Are you done yet? Let's go dinner together.
Joshua accorded, then lowered his head again, hiding his face behind the hood of his shirt, his soft lips pursed, his fingers gripping the cuffs of his shirt, gently following the figure in front of him. He dropped his face in disappointment
It's really not good to turn into human form like this...
- Wonwoo, are you okay? Ever since then, you have been staring at me. Do you need me to return to my cat form?
Wonwoo waked up from his thoughts, only to realize that Joshua is frantically waving his arms in front of him. Progressively, His bewildered face gradually turning from white to pink, then to a fiery red. He immediately covered it up:
- It's okay, I'm just thinking nonsense, just eat.
- Um... but this dish is too spicy, I really can't eat it... - Said Joshua wryly looking at the red chopsticks full of chili powder - It's also too hot to eat, if it's not hot, it's not good, so...
- No problem. Try this dish, it's not spicy, but it's also very delicious if eaten cold.
Because of politeness and also because of that small desire, he really wanted to take him to a restaurant. But also because he liked him, really, really liked him, couldn't bear to see him confused and scared in a crowded place with only the two of them, so in the end he still decided to buy food to take home. After asking Wen Junhui for a while, he finally found a Vietnamese restaurant selling delicious food near his house, so he immediately bought it for him to eat, without hesitation even though the food was a bit expensive.
Joshua immediately held out his bowl to pick up the food, then had difficulty picking up the bamboo chopsticks, but in the end he still could handle this perfectly, also he knew how to eat in moderation. Add to this and from talking to him, Wonwoo vaguely realizes, he seems to have been a human being, or was once a human-trained cat.
- Joshua-nim - Wonwoo put down his chopsticks, elbows rested on the glass of the dining table, tilted his head to look at the person opposite who was eating for the "fried spring rolls". Hearing his name called, he instantly raised his head, blinked at him, asking what was wrong. Wonwoo stared at him for a moment, unconsciously biting his lip, showing hesitation. Then he sighed again, he whispered: - What kind of person is that person you like?
Joshua seemed surprised by this question. He stopped chewing, his cheeks gradually turning red. "This..." He cleared his throat, his eyelids drooped, his face and voice both lost in thoughts.
"How should I say it?... a cold hand warm heart person? He was my life-savior helped me when I felt the most difficult, most desperate. Even though his face always looked difficult to approach, not to mention his sharpened eyes, but in fact, he is very warm and gentle, and has a cute side that is often numb." Speaking of which, he covered his mouth and giggled. "Also, this person is very knowledgeable about everything in this world, took good care of me, treated me very well, and often read to me. . How should I say this?... It was this that made my heart melt."
It's clear that he's been asking himself this question all day, then hesitating until he decided to ask him directly, telling himself that if that person is worthy of Joshua, he will completely put aside all his feelings to help him and cherish his happiness as afriend. But as soon as he heard the answer, something in his throat seemed to rise up, choking, as if he was stuck in his lungs with a drug he never liked. It was obvious that Wonwoo was eating a famous delicacy, yet his mouth felt like he was chewing on a bunch of dried leaves. Crude, dry and tasteless.
- You really love that person, don't you? - After a moment of silence, Wonwoo forced himself into a pitifully distorted smile. Joshua's eyes curved up like a crescent moon because of a bright smile on his lips, an extremely happy face. In the bottom of his eyes, he saw the hope twinkling, which Wonwoo certainly would never have the heart to make it disappear.
- I really love that person!
That is the Moon.
But even if that celestial body is only facing the Earth all its life, the nature of the Earth still has to revolve around the Sun. Ironically, does the Moon ever complain or turn off that light? Being halcyon with all love, the Moon has been and would be around for a lifetime of a celestial body, for Earth alone."
