"I'm coming!!" Joshua rushed into the room with a big bowl full of popcorn.
"Is it salted popcorn?" Jeonghan asked.
"Yeah. This is all I have" Joshua replied.
"It's okay. I like it."
The film began, and it told the story of a boy who secretly had a crush on a popular guy from his university. The popular guy was straight and had always dated girls, which broke the other boy's heart. Until one day...
"I'm sorry for the boy who likes the popular guy! He deserves better" Jeonghan commented.
Joshua remained silent but had some wild thoughts. He wondered if Jeonghan had chosen this movie because he secretly had a crush on Joshua, but he didn't have the chance to be with him due to Joshua's popularity. He found himself admiring Jeonghan's cleverness.
As the movie progressed, the popular guy in the film approached the boy and began discussing sexuality. It was a bit unusual, but then the popular guy kissed the boy.
"Wow! That was unexpected!" Jeonghan exclaimed.
The kiss in the movie grew more intense, and Jeonghan secretly wished he would someday find someone to kiss like that. Meanwhile, Joshua's mind was heading in a different direction, growing more and more explicit...
The boys in the movie eventually ended up in a bedroom, still kissing passionately, and then they started undressing each other.
"Oh my God!" Jeonghan shouted. "I didn't know this movie had these types of scenes... I'm so sorry, I will skip it—"
"No, it's okay. Don't skip it." Joshua said, his voice almost husky.
"Okay..." Jeonghan's voice trailed off, feeling incredibly embarrassed.
Just when things in the movie were getting more intense, a sudden interruption occurred.
"Joshua! I'm home!" Joshua's mom shouted.
Jumpscare! Joshua swiftly turned off the TV. Hadn't she said she'd be home in 2 hours? It had only been 1 hour. Anyway...
"Jeonghan, she's my mom. Let me introduce you to her!" Joshua explained. "We're coming!" he shouted.
The boys entered the kitchen, where Joshua's mom was.
"Are you Jeonghan? You beautiful boy! You look so cute and adorable!" Joshua's mom fangirled over Jeonghan.
"Thanks!" Jeonghan replied, keeping his response simple. He couldn't help but admire Joshua's beautiful mom, who appeared to be in her 40s but still looked lovely.
"Yeah..." Joshua added, sounding a bit panicked. He hadn't closed the movie, he'd merely turned off the TV. If someone turned it on again...
Jeonghan felt even more embarrassed. Why did Joshua say he wanted to watch those kinds of scenes? Did he have some strange preferences?
"You guys should sleep. It's bedtime!" Joshua's mom suggested.
Then Joshua's dad joined them in the kitchen.
"Ooh!!! Jeonghan! You are Jeonghan, right? Wow... I'm so happy my boy Joshua has a new friend! He hasn't had one since high school!" Joshua's dad said with a proud dad tone.
"Dad, don't tell him things about my private life!" Joshua exclaimed, his panic evident.
"Why are you attacking me now? Calm down!"Joshua's dad responded.
"I'm sorry. I didn't want to sound like this. I will wash the dishes for tonight because of my behavior"Joshua said with a lowered tone.
Jeonghan was surprised to see Joshua acting this way after upsetting someone. He found it cute.
"No, it's okay, my boy! You don't need to be this kind!" Joshua's dad reassured him, patting his shoulder.
"We should sleep" Jeonghan suggested.
"Sure, good night, mom and dad! Have sweet dreams!" Joshua said, blowing an air kiss.
Jeonghan's smile faded. Joshua's parents were so perfect. Why couldn't his own mom be like this too? Life felt unfair.
In their bedroom, Jeonghan immediately brought up the unfinished movie. "Joshua, what about the movie? You left it on! And the movie also wasn't finished!"
"I don't think my parents will open the t—"
But before Joshua could finish, someone shouted very loudly from outside the bedroom.
"WHO IS WATCHING GAY PORN ON MY TV?!"
