It was freezing. Even with his coat wrapped tightly around him, he could feel the tip of his nose and his lips beginning to numb from the harsh frigid weather of winter in Seoul. Now that Gayo Daejun was over, anyone who was a someone was headed to their respective after parties. The parking garage was filled with socialites of all kinds, idols, actors, actresses, hosts, and the people who managed them. Suho sniffled a little as his nose began to drip from the cold and shoved his hands tighter into his pockets. Thatâs when he saw him. Standing near a wide white pillar, a face that heâd never fail to recognize, Seo In Guk.Â
Heâd always wanted to say a few words to the man. He was someone he admired and respected, an actor of a kind he wished for himself to be. So he went over with a slow stride, wanting to seem cool, and offered a smile to the other. âHow did you like the show sunbaenim?â
Covered by the overly large coat that his noonas had just brought him diligently, he was greeting the colleagues who like him were leaving the place, occasionally stopping to talk with people with whom he had more confidence or congratulating others for the excellent performances that he had appreciated until the end of the event. Inguk was dying of cold despite the pleasant warmth given by the coat, but that night he saw a lot of familiar faces and people who could not meet due to his schedules, so it seemed rude to him to disappear in the car and leave for the party. He almost felt like a child in the midst of all those familiar faces, he did nothing but bow his head and smile for the whole time, thing that could make him forget how infernal was the temperature.
Inguk raised the collar of his coat and covered his sensitive and red ears, interrupting his own motion when a male, deep voice made his way throught his thoughts, forcing him to turn around to see from who it was coming from and most of all, if he was talking with him. The boy looked at him smiling, Inguk made no effort to reciprocate the kindness, nodding slowly to his question. "It was so far one of the most enjoying events of the year, right? Did you had fun?" he asked in return, narrowing a bit his eyes when he realized he had never found the opportunity to introduce himself. "This is the first time that we talk, am I right? I am Seo Inguk" offering his hand, he watched him with a friendly smile, waiting for him to shake it.
