One day Joshua didn't see Jeonghan in lunch class.He left his lunch and searched for Jeonghan in the classroom, gym, and he asked Jeonghan's teacher, as well.

But he thought and realized he didn't check the restrooms.He went from one, to another one,until the last one.Joshua secretly but quickly looked throughout the stalls.Joshua found Jeonghan in a restroom stall with two other boys.The two boys had cartons of milk on their hands.

Joshua then remembered that when he went to Jeonghan's classroom, he saw a desk where it said "Trying to be the nice guy" , "Gay" , "You're a girl" , "Bitch" , "You don't belong here" ,and so on in red sharpie marker.

As Joshua remembered and processed the situation , the two boys poured the milk over Jeonghan's head and laughed.Joshua then punched one boy in the face and the other boy got scared he peed his pants. Joshua didn't care about the boy's accident and proceeded with the punching.

The teacher's then got informed about the chaos because of a passerby.They got sent to the school's counselor and calmly explained the situation.They fortunately didn't cause too much of a chaos ,that had to bring the principal into it.

The two boy's parents couldn't believe what they heard and wanted evidence and compensation for their child getting hurt.So they got what they wanted but they didn't give compensation.

It ended up bad when their parents came to the school but felt relieved that Jeonghan won't go through such measures any more ,and they didn't get in much trouble, just two days out of school suspension.

What worried Joshua and Jeonghan's parents is if it will happen again and if Jeonghan is able to speak up.Jeonghan tried and tried, until he finally reassured his parents and Joshua.

Joshua's parents weren't usually home so he had more time with Jeonghan.

Joshua once asked Jeonghan, "Will you forget me?Will you leave me?". Jeonghan replied with "No.Unless you leave me."

They played each day as if it was a normal day, but the day came where Joshua's parents decided to divorce and his mom stayed with him, throughout the hardships.

Episode 2 - Growing Up

Since the divorce, Joshua didn't trust anybody and only stayed with Jeonghan.They went to junior high ,Joshua and Jeonghan felt as if there was something they didn't know, as if everything was fake.They both didn't have any classes together and they could only take to each other when they both go back home, in bus.Other people thought that Joshua was an introvert but he laughed and talked when Jeonghan was around, they could only think he was a different person.Nobody knew how Joshua talked or how he sounded. He only had a poker and a smile on his face. Jeonghan on the other hand had many friends ,he was more or less like a popular kid .Many secretly had a crush on Joshua and Jeonghan, I mean who wouldn't. Stress and tests came up. The school decided to have a field trip. The teachers wanted the field trip to be educational and fun, but decided to go to an aquarium. The teacher's let them pick their pair, but if it got out of hand they would pick them themselves. Joshua and Jeonghan got together, they both had lunch prepared. When they got inside the aquarium, everybody thought it was a big place. They toured around and saw all the big animals, that lays down in the water. It was time for lunch and Jeonghan decided to go get a cold coke, so when they drank it their tiredness would go away. As Jeonghan went back to the table ,that Joshua used to be at, he noticed Joshua wasn't anywhere to be seen. Jeonghan hurried and told the teacher's. Nobody had his phone number and Jeonghan either ,because they were always together. They canceled the field trip and everyone, except Joshua, went back to school. Police officers searched everywhere but couldn't find him, so they called in more policemen to look around. Joshua finally was found in a dark room with no lights and no sound. They found him with ripped clothes and found out he was almost raped. The culprit was captured ,because of CCTV footage, he didn't rape him because he heard an announcement that everybody should leave the building. Joshua's mom went to the doctor with him because he didn't want to go out. She found out he got traumatized by the accident that happened the other day. Joshua didn't trust anybody and couldn't see people in their faces, even if he did he could only see a dark round face. Joshua only recognized and talked to the people before he had the accident. He still went to school but tried to stay away from people the farthest way possible. Eventually he overcame his fear but didn't recognize anyone, still the same dark face but he knew they were different people because of the tone of voice. One day a boy talked to him, the other boy didn't seem to have any friends, so he talked more to Joshua and eventually became friends.The boy had many classes with Joshua. Joshua now had a new face he could see but the other's people's faces were the same as always.

They quickly turn 15 and stay the same.Jeonghan was very popular and many admired him.Joshua stayed the same and had about three friends, but they didn't talk much. Joshua wasn't really much noticed so when they go outside they , sometimes, leave him out there.

Joshua once went to the doctor and he knew he wanted to kill himself because he didn't see a point in living. He wanted to die but thought about Jeonghan when the thought crossed his mind. He went to a psychiatrist because Joshua wanted to fix this problem. Joshua didn't tell anybody but his mother. His mother got sad at times but knew he wouldn't go out and kill himself.

Jeonghan told Joshua he wanted to ask someone out. Joshua wanted to speak up and say he didn't want him to do it, but wanted him to be happy. He thought he had no right to intervene with his relationships so Joshua said "Yes go and ask her out". Weeks passed and Jeonghan brought up his courage and asked her out. Everybody knew he didn't date anyone before so it quickly became the word of the day. Girls around Jeonghan became jealous and angry. Jeonghan didn't know it himself, that there was a club for fans who idolized Jeonghan. The fans started to take action and bullied Jeonghan's girlfriend. They started to pour water on her, hide her belongings, put her in the spot,made people hate her and brought problems towards her. Jeonghan's girlfriend could not take it anymore and told him her story. When she finished explaining she broke up with him. Jeonghan became angry at the fans and made them dismiss the club. The club vanished without a trace. Joshua on the other hand was happy but didn't dare to show it.The word of the day was the break up and the dismissed club. Jeonghan did not want others to be put in danger or made the person the laughing stock, because of him , so he didn't date anyone since then. Joshua was at his side at all times and comforted him whenever he needed a reaching hand.
