Chang-sun turned red from embarrassment, he tried to explain but was stuttering alot.

"W-W-Well.....U-Uhmmm...Uhh...Its its 'cause....You....Uhhh....Me....Ehm...."

"What are you trying to say?" Dal raised an eyebrow, he raised his chin up to appear more superior.

Chang-sun started sweating, his whole body hunched while he fiddles with his fingers shyly.

"...Y-You don't wanna know!!"

"But I do though" Dal tilted his head, he pushes his glasses up and squinted his eyes. "Come on, don't be shy"

Chang-sun looked down on the floor. He was pretty determined to not tell Dal.

But Dal was so curious about what Pin has called himself, he was getting impatient. He went closer to Chang-sun, and this startled the big guy, so the big guy backed away.

Dal doesn't know why Chang-sun doesn't want to tell him. Is it really that embarrassing? But Dal became even more curious seeing how Chang-sun acting all shy.

Like a teenage high school girl who was found out by her crush putting inside a love letter in his locker.

Dal squeezed Chang-sun's cheek and made him look at his face.

"?!" Chang-sun was surprised by this.

"Don't worry, I won't laugh"

"........." Chang-sun blushed when their faces were so close, a little more and they might kiss...

Chang-sun stared too much at Dal's handsome face that was covered by both his bangs and glasses. Chang-sun placed both his hands on his face.. "Ahhhhhh......My heart....I think its gonna explode...."

"........" Dal waited patiently this time. Actually, Dal already found out. But he still insists on Chang-sun telling it himself. Dal didn't know why, but he just wanted to hear Chang-sun's answer.

"....I....." Chang-sun opened his mouth. He was trying to get the courage to say it..

Dal's heart started to beat. He stared at Chang-sun.

"....It meant that...."

"...That I like....You...."

Dal became excited. He didn't know why, he was confused. But when he heard Chang-sun say it, he was happy. Super duper happy.

He doesn't even know Chang-sun for that long! And he also hasn't spoken with him that much! So why.....

Why is he so happy when Chang-sun confessed??

Dal's face turned into a shade of pink. He doesn't dislike it though...

"You like me?"

Chang-sun whose face was still covered slowly nodded.

"....Why? Why do you like me?"

"...D-Do I also have to explain this....."

Dal replied with a serious "Yes."

Chang-sun turned around to face the wall so that Dal won't see his very red face. But Chang-sun didn't realize his ears and neck were also red.

".....I-I guess you could say it was....Uhh what was that term...?"

[Love at first sight.]

"L-Love at first sight!"

Dal wasn't so convinced. He stared at Chang-sun's back. "Love at first sight isn't real"

"It is!!"

"Hmph, another reason."

"....Uhhhh.....Well.....Your, your eyes....Its very pretty...."

"....??" Dal looked at Chang-sun with confusion. 'My eyes?'

"And your smile as well...." Chang-sun's voice became soft, its like he was thinking of something. Or reminiscing a memory.

"......." Dal quietly went close to Chang-sun. He then placed his chin on Chang-sun's shoulder. This made Chang-sun flinch in surprise.

"!!!"

"Is there more?" Dal's voice tingled in Chang-sun's ear. He turned even redder if that was possible. His whole body was on fire.

"...U-U-Uh....U-Uhmm...Ehh...Y-You....Your....Your..." Chang-sun bit his lips. 'WHY AM I LIKE THIS?!'

'I never realized Kwan Chan-yeol can act all shy like this. He's really cute for a big guy....' Dal thought. 'Huh? Cute?? This guy? What am I thinking?' Dal was embarrassed by his own thoughts.

He stared at Chang-sun's red neck, then he moved to his ears and then the blushing side face of Chang-sun.

"..........." Dal's heart began to beat.

'No way....Do I also like him? This guy?? Well he's pretty cute and I actually don't mind dating him- What? Me?...I don't mind??'

Dal's mind became messy. '...........' Dal wanted to try and experiment something...

'I don't like him. We're both guys, I am just being affected by the flow, thats why I am thinking like this...'

Suddenly his heart began to hurt. Dal touched his chest with a frown. Its like his heart was disagreeing on what he was thinking.

When he imagined himself without Chang-sun, his heart hurt even more.

".........."

Dal looked at Chang-sun who was staring hard at the wall.

'....I guess I really do like him.....Since when? But I guess I won't question it anymore. My heart keeps saying that I really do like him'

Dal placed both his hands on Chang-sun's shoulder and turned him around so that they'll be face to face.

"???" Chang-sun's face screamed confusion.

Dal lowered his eyelids. 'Will it be weird if I suddenly say I like you too? It wasn't even that long since we've known each other...'

Chang-sun averted his eyes. 'Dal must be weirded out by me now! Uggghhhh, my mouth!!! I should have kept silent! But I couldn't lie in front of him! Wuwuwuwu.....Pin....Now I'm gonna be rejected, and he won't like me anymore.....He won't be friends with me after he knew I like him....Our relationship will be awkward and we wont ever see each other again!!! Wuwuwuwuwu....'

[Calm down Host. If he rejects you, then that means he isn't Weng Jian. From what I have observed in the previous world, Weng Jian would never reject you. Even if both of you reincarnated and became strangers, I am sure his heart will recognize you]

Dal hummed at this. '....So thats how it is.'

'My cousin always read romance fantasy novels. So I am very familiar with these types of things.'

'Is it that....Both of us were lovers in our previous life? Is that it? And.....'

"Who is Weng Jian." Dal stared down at Chang-sun even though Chang-sun is taller.

"Eek!!!" Chang-sun flinched and sticked his back to the wall.

"I'm asking you....Who's Weng Jian...." Dal slammed both his palms beside Chang-sun's head, trapping him with no escape.

[It seems he never changes even in another world.]

Chang-sun sweatdrops and exclaimed the answer to the question. "You! You!!"

"........."

"Me?" Dal frowned. "I'm Weng Jian? Is that my name in my previous life?"

'Eh? Ah? Ahh....Previous life..'

"I guess you could put it that way...Yeah..."

"I am your lover?"

"No...."

"No?"

"I mean yes! We are! In our previous life we have mutual feelings, you confessed to me first but I still didn't know my feelings for you back then....But when we started going on dates, and me thinking so much about our relationship...I....Finally realized I like you..." Chang-sun blushed shyly.

"Though I never got to confess it because.......Because....Huh? Why can't I remember after that?" Chang-sun scratches his head and frowned. "...I was making some presents for you because I wanted to confess my feelings.....Then after that I called for a taxi so that I could get you.."

[!!!]

[Host! You don't have to think so hard. Aren't you gonna make some snacks for Wangbo Dal? He's getting hungry]

"What do you mean hungry? I'm not hungry"

"No Pin...This is so weird....Why can't I remember anything? I can't remember the last things that happened in the previous world..."

[Host, its not worth remembering. Now go and bake Wangbo Dal some cookies.]

"What do you mean not worth it?! What do you mean by that Pin?!" Chang-sun became agitated at what Pin said.

"Are you saying my happy memories with Jianjian isn't worth remembering?!"

Dal glared at the system.

[...No....Thats not what I...Not what I meant...]

Chang-sun teared up. "I need to remember! I don't want to forget those precious memories with JianJian!"

[Host! Don't do it!....I...Its...] How can Pin explain this....He didn't want Chang-sun to remember the bad memories of the accident....He also doesn't want to be reminded of the mistake he did that caused all that to happen....Pin was guilty...

"I don't know why you don't want Kwan Chan-yeol to remember. But isn't it too much to say it wasn't worth remembering the memories that is very precious to him?"

[No...You do not understand....There was an accident!]

"What the hell do you mean by that..." Dal frowned. 'Why is the voice so desperate to make sure Kwan Chan-yeol doesn't remember...And what does he mean by accident...?' Dal looked at Chang-sun who was trying his hardest to remember things step by step.

"...I wanted to get Jianjian from school, but my car's tire was busted...So thats why I had to take a taxi...When I arrived me and Jianjian took another Taxi....And then...."

Unwanted memories began to crash into Chang-sun's brain. Chang-sun became startled and screamed at the splitting headache.

"Chan-yeol?!" Dal shouted in distress.

[Host!]

Chang-sun couldn't take the splitting headache and he collapsed on the floor with tears rolling down his cheeks.

Chang-sun hugs Weng Jian and became his shield. All he could think about was Weng Jian's safety. His thoughts were all filled with.

Is Jianjian hurt?

Is he okay?

Have I shielded him from the flying glass?

It hurts...Everything hurts....But is Jianjian okay?

Jianjian please be okay

I don't want you to get hurt...

"...I-Illia ge......" Weng Jian called out to Chang-sun with tears rolling down his bloody face.

Ah....Jianjian is hurt...

My heart hurts to see him like this...

I should have protected him properly...

"Jianjian....." Chang-sun tried to smile even though it stings.

"...I love you...."

I'm sorry I was late...

I was late on realizing my feelings for you...

But...I'm happy I was able to confess

Jianjian.....

Jianjian.......

"...Illia ge...Please......Don't....Don't go...."

Jianjian.....I'm sorry...

So sorry....
