"Riki, the nurse will take me to the OR now."

"Hyung, please... I don't want to let go of your hand..."

"Look at me, Riki. You said you trust me right? I'll be back."

"Hyung..."

"I won't... break your trust."

He slowly let Sunoo's hand slip through his fingers. He stared at the older one's eyes. "I know, hyung. Come back, okay? I'll wait for you."

"Wait, can you... kiss me before I go?"

He closed his eyes as he felt Riki's lips on him, planting a soft kiss. A single tear fell from Sunoo's eye.

"I'll see you soon, neighbor."
