"love."
-

The computer screen keeps showing the same error message.

Soonyoung
"No. I'm not letting him die."

Wonwoo only looks on.
He watches his best friend continue to try and select Jihoon.
However, the same message keeps popping up.

Soonyoung
"Let me pick Jihoon, goddammit!"

Soonyoung
"How the fuck does this stupid game
know that I'm in love with him?"

Soonyoung
"You can't..."

Soonyoung breaks down into tears, choked sobs leaving him.

Wonwoo
"Soonyoung. You can't save Jihoon."

Wonwoo
"It just.. won't let you for some reason."

Wonwoo
"Maybe he won't die if we pick someone else."

Soonyoung glares at Wonwoo, malice and anger in his eyes.

Soonyoung
"You're telling me to give up..."

Soonyoung
"on my baby?"

Soonyoung
"Hundreds of people have died, Wonwoo."

Soonyoung
"This game is merciless."

Soonyoung
"You'd be reacting the same way if it told you to pick someone to save."

Soonyoung
"If Mingyu was on this list.. you'd pick him."

Soonyoung
"You'd pick him and disregard everyone else."

Soonyoung
"I'm not risking Jihoon's death."

Soonyoung
"I'm going to sit here and continue until it lets me save him."

Wonwoo
"..."

Wonwoo
"If that's what you want, Soonyoung."

But suddenly, Soonyoung's computer shuts off.
It turns back on to a hauntingly familiar male.
He's sitting in a chair, and he's restrained by ropes.

???
"S...a...ve......me......"

Soonyoung
"Jihoon?"

Soonyoung
"Jihoon!!"

Soonyoung tackles the screen, trying to punch the monitor.
He screams, tears beginning to run down his cheeks.

Soonyoung
"LET HIM GO!!"

Jihoon
"Save....me, Soon...you....ng."

Soonyoung
"PLEASE!"

Soonyoung watches as Jihoon begins to cry blood tears.
The smaller is clearly in pain.
He doesn't fail to notice the knife stuck in his eye.

Wonwoo
"Soonyoung! Calm down!"

Wonwoo
"We're going to save him!"

Soon, a gun is pointed at Jihoon.
Soonyoung and Wonwoo can't see the shooters face.
Jihoon begins to cry and plead desperately,
as if he were screaming for the devil to come rescue him.

Jihoon
"SOONYOUNG! WHERE ARE YOU?"

Jihoon
"YOU LET ME DOWN SOONYOUNG!"

Jihoon
"YOU SAID YOU'D ALWAYS BE AT MY SIDE!!"

Jihoon
"WHERE ARE YOU?"

Soonyoung
"I'm so sorry.."

Soonyoung lifts a forlorn hand to the screen.

Soonyoung
"I'm so sorry... I'm sorry.."

Soonyoung
"I couldn't protect you.."

Soonyoung
"My angel.."

Soonyoung
"My precious angel.."

Soonyoung looks away from the monitor as he hears the person load the gun aimed at Jihoon, who's still crying.

Jihoon
"Look at me.."

Jihoon
"Look at me, Soonyoung.."

Jihoon
"Look.. please..."

Soonyoung looks up for only one second

to see a bullet enter Jihoon's head.

Jihoon's body falls to the ground, like a doll,
a pool of blood surrounding his now dead body. The tears are still running.

The screen shuts off. Soonyoung could only stare at the darkness.

Soonyoung practically throws himself into Wonwoo's arms, the said male was crying as well. Soonyoung doesn't even speak, he just sobs.

The screen flickers back on to blood red letters.

Soonyoung cries even more after looking up at the message. Wonwoo could only stroke his best friends hair.
