Yongguk sat up, sure that he could hear the sound of someone's tears in the other room. He stood to his feet, gripping the jeans and as he dropped the towel around his hips, he pulled his jeans on, one leg at a time. Not bothering with either his shirt or jumper, he threw the towel off the ground and onto the mattress, as soon as he did so, leaving the room. "Hy- Hyeri?" He questioned, opening the door and stepping out. The sight before him was heart breaking, there sitting on the couch, was Lee Hyeri, tears in her eyes and her hand clutching her jeans. Without knowing why, Yongguk stepped forwards, heading towards her. It was as if he had seen her tears a million times before, it was as if he knew just what to do each time they fell, like he had been soothed her aching heart a million times in the past.

His legs led him towards the couch, where he sat down beside Hyeri, scared to touch her, scared to say anything, scared to pull her into his chest like he felt as though he needed to do. "D- don't cry." He spoke in an unconfident tone, his hand shaking as he fought it to stay in his lap. He couldn't help but feel like this was his fault, like he was the reason for her tears, although there was so much he didn't know, so much he wouldn't figure out. "Please." He begged, his voice almost taking on a sad tone, from the confused, unconfident one it was stuck in before.

Why was she crying, what was she so upset about, was there something in that very room that upset her? Yongguk couldn't work it out, and without a second thought, the tears clearly not stopping any time soon, his hand reached around her body. "Hyeri, please stop crying." He begged once more, his hand trying it's hardest to comfort her.

"M-Mum, Dad?  Dad, send him a sign please, anything.” She stopped, knowing how stupid she sounded. Hyeri sat up, slowly wiping away her tears, sniffling. She looked around the shack, before looking up towards the ceiling, as if she was looking up and beyond, past the roof, into the skies. “Y-Yongnam?" She whispered, never uttering Yongguk’s brother’s name before. "Yongnam. H-Help me out, send your little brother a sign." She dropped her head, gripping the leg of her jeans - trying to cry out everything she was holding back in. Maybe it be best if she never told him about their past together, maybe it be best to stay friends and to move on. Maybe Hyeri would become Mrs. Kim Seungjae, and have his children, become a house wife.  Maybe it was time to give up. Maybe she didn’t deserve this third, and final chance.  It just didn’t feel right to try and brainwash him into remembering their past.

Yongguk dancing to Secret “I Do I Do”

[yongguk-tlou-blog]

His body froze, what was she talking about, getting something in return? He gulped, his body becoming even more hot and flustered than it already was. "I- ugh.." He stuttered. His eyebrows narrowed as the nickname left her lips, there was something about the name Gukkie, something that made his stomach tight and the back of his head ache, both things that had been happening the entire day since he had met Hyeri. "N- no peeking." His voice sounded low, almost upset, even to himself. His hands disappeared from holding the door and to the towel that was thrown carelessly onto the bathroom's bench top, wrapping it around his hips once again. Turning to stand before the door once more, he took in a deep breath, opening it slowly, to make sure her eyes were still in fact closed.

Trying his hardest to make no noise, his feet pitter and pattered against the hardwood floor, and after almost dropping his towel once or twice, he was finally in the bedroom. Shutting the door behind him slightly, as it wasn't yet hinged correctly, making it so it didn't close the entire way anyway. His hand rubbed against his forehead as he sat at the end of the bed, before resting his head in his hand. He couldn't figure any of the emotions he was feeling out, he was confused, that was for sure; but also somewhat angry to the point where he wanted to punch one of the growing sturdy walls that surrounded him, to the point of tears. "Gukkie...." He repeated to himself, the name was weird, strange, but he couldn't help but feel somewhat happy about Hyeri calling him it, and another feeling too, a feeling that Yongguk had never felt before.

His hand ran through his slowly drying, dark hair before he stood up, trying to distract himself from all the events that had taken place that day. Stepping forwards, his arms reached out for the pair of clean jeans, a white v-neck and a simple grey hoodie. He couldn't be bothered getting dressed, throwing the clothes back on the bed, along with himself. The towel still wrapped around his hips, his wet hair getting the white sheets and blankets wet, although he didn't care. For a second, he closed his eyes. 

Immediately, unexpectedly, his mind went straight to Hyeri. Her pale skin, her hair, although it seemed to be a different colour in his mind, an almost light brown. She appeared in the what looked to be the very shack that Yongguk had moved into, although it looked different. The thoughts were fun at first, almost like memories that didn't exist, but then... they turned for the worse. Yongguk's mind began showing him what appeared to almost, impure. Her hands wrapped around his neck, busy and messy hands that ran all over each other's bodies, marking each other's skin, a slight moan leaving her lips. 

Yongguk forced his eyes open.

It was strange though, this entire day - how she had ran into Yongguk, today of all days - presuming he was dead for a year. She just asked herself repeatedly of how she would break all of this to him, that they were in love - that what they had was real. And as she thought about it, her side began to burn. She scrunched up her nose. “Come on out, Gukkie.” Oh no.

[yongguk-tlou-blog]

Yongguk's arms grew tired as he used all his strength to push his soothing, cleansed body out from the shower. His mind had been corrupted with Hyeri's face, no matter where he tried to take his mind too, it seemed to always go back to her, it was like he was meant to be thinking about her, meant to be feeling crazy and whatever else he was feeling, and all for her. He sighed for the nth time in what was growing to be that evening, his hands reached for the two taps that he had traded one of his, unknowingly, past memories for. The water stopped falling against his back as his hand ran through his hair, pushing the now damp strands out of his face. 

Gripping the closest towel he could reach, he stepped out of the shower's warmth, wrapping the fluffy towel around his hips tightly as he did so. His hair still dripping wet onto his shoulders, he quickly dried his body with the towel. The clothes that he was wearing before, were far to drenched from the rain, making them unwearable. His mind shifted from getting himself dry, to what he was going to do for clothing, realizing that all of his clean clothes were now in the unfinished bedroom. "Shit." He mumbled to himself, there was no way that he'd be able to walk out of the bathroom in what he was was currently not wearing. "Ugh, Hyeri..." Yongguk called out, opening the door slightly and allowing just his head to become visible to the girl who was currently seated on his couch. "This is embarrassing but.. well.." He wondered if he'd be able to ask her to close her eyes. "I'm gonna need you to close your eyes for a moment." His cheeks went a bright shade of pink, showing the girl his embarrassment.

Yongguk used to be the sort of man not to care whether or not his body was seen by someone else's eyes, in fact, he used to hate the feeling of fabric against his skin. And even though, unknowingly to Yongguk, Hyeri had seen it all before, this time around he felt so awkward, embarrassed and like a teenage boy.

She watched him leave and she sighed, running her hands over her bare, scared arms, noticing the small green, grey and blue bruises. She lent back against the cool leather and sighed, closing her eyes. Oh how she longed to be with Yongguk again, to hold him close. She longed to touch his face, and run her hands through his hair once more. For him to rest his head over her heart and to fall asleep as she sung or spoke to him. She longed to join him behind those closed doors, to remind one another of how much they loved eachother. She’d been hearing those words everyday for the past six months and yet none of them meant anything to her.  But Yongguk doesn’t know who Hyeri is. He doesn’t remember their love, their fights, their friendship or their connection. She’s just another, confused, hopeless, lost and lonely girl.  But she’s just that.

[yongguk-tlou-blog]

[yongguk-tlou-blog]

Yongguk had never been so interested in listening, the man she spoke about sounded like such a great man, apart from the tears he caused her and the shouting. He couldn't help but feel a sense of pride as she told him about her ex, as she spoke about how happy he had made her. "He really did all of that?" Yongguk questioned, looking over at her slightly, droplets of rain falling down his arms as he did so. "It bet he made you really happy." He forced a smile, he had no idea why, but his mood had suddenly dropped to almost sadness, and while hers was up-lifting.

"I'd love to have something like that with someone." He spoke softly. "A girl in my life that would wait around for me, put up with whatever mood I was in that day, someone I could protect and hold on those cold nights." His eyes fell from Hyeri and down towards the ground. "But I guess love isn't for everyone." He sighed, it almost felt familiar to be walking along the path that led up to his shack with Hyeri, it almost felt like deja vu, like he had been in this exact position before, but that was impossible. This was the first time they had ever met each other. 

By the time they reached the front porch, Yongguk's shirt had decided to stick to his body, outlining all the muscular tones of his torso,his boots were covered in mud his jeans damp. "You'll have to excuse the mess inside, I'm fixing it all up. It was nothing but a disaster before." He laughed, thinking back to the day he had, un knowingly, come back across the shack, all the belongings inside fit him or suited him well, making it the place he would once, again, live. Unlacing his boots, he kicked them off his feet, throwing them near the end of the veranda's fence. Tigger shook her entire body, earning a few droplets of rain to land against both Yongguk and Hyeri. "Tigger." He scolded, although in return all he got was an almost smile from the still untrained puppy. "Sorry about that." He smiled once again, standing up right before Hyeri again. "Luckily it was just the jacket." He sighed, opening the door and stepping inside.

Yongguk remembered when he first found the shack, the falling apart mattress that sat in the middle of the room, the piles of clothes that sat in the corner and the shattered mirror that barely had any reflective surface against it. Now, the room looked like a room you'd want to walk into. In the corner where the clothes used to sit, was now a, yes broken, black leather couch, a stereo that Yongguk wasn't sure still worked and fifteen-plus toys that Tigger had scattered. "Make yourself at home." He smiled. "There's not much to eat, but there's at least something if you're hungry." He turned away from Hyeri, walking towards the now clean bathroom. "I'm just going to jump into a shower, you're welcome to have one after me if you'd like?" He smiled, shutting the door slowly and immediately undressing himself.

He sighed, he couldn't pin point what the feeling sweeping over his body was, was it sadness, was it confusion, was it anger, was it a mix of all sorts? He had no idea, standing there in just his jeans now, he sighed, leaning in and turning the shower's hot water on. In the back of his head, it felt like there was a war taking place, it was like someone was screaming at him to remember the very woman outside, and the other was telling him to forget her and continue living his life the way he has been. There was something about Hyeri, something that made him upset. 

A few moments passed, and he was in the shower, allowing the warm water to fall down his back and to the back of thighs. Leaning against the damp wall of the newly renovated shower, he couldn't hear any noise coming through the room beside the bathroom. Unsure on how to feel, what to think.

They suddenly stopped and Hyeri watched as Yongguk had taken off his coat, placing it over her body. She smiled, and took in a deep breathe, the collar tickling her cheeks. This was the best feeling yet. “Thanks, Yongguk.” She smiled, looking up towards the sky, the wind blowing her hair about. “I really love the rain, you know?” Hyeri took in a deep breath and sighed “He never liked the rain.” Yongguk was the moon, and Hyeri was the sun, and he was fire and she was ice. He wore black and she wore white, and despite being polar opposites - no two could of been so alike.

[yongguk-tlou-blog]

Yongguk sighed, almost glad to be away from the mess that all of that caused. His steps stopped, letting Tigger down from his hold, he knelt down for the nth time that day, placing his hand on the top of her head. "Why were you acting so crazy huh?" He spoke as though he was talking to a child, his very own daughter. Brushing it off as Tigger over-reacting, he stood back to his own feet, heading back towards his home, listening as the chatter of the people still searching through the market began to get quieter with each few steps. "We'll come back tomorrow to get your toys okay?" He spoke to Tigger once more, before feeling himself being slowed down, tugged back by a grip on his jacket.

His body froze as he saw none other than who he now knew as Hyeri, Lee Hyeri. He listened to her apologize, although, truly there was no need for her to do so. "There's nothing to apologize about, I mean sure I'm a little confused, but I get it." He lied, he didn't get it, he had no idea what had just happened, what was going on or who either of them were. He stuttered once again. "I- I am?" He questioned, cocking his eyebrow as he thought for a moment, and then it hit him. How and why was she confident in knowing where he lived?

The sky was only getting darker, and he could feel that it was going rain. "But I- I..." Before he could disagree by her assumption of him disliking the rain, he was pulled forwards once again and forced to walk by her side. Questions? He had questions, the thing was where to start... He had so much he wanted to ask, wanted to know.

They began walking, her hand still gripping onto Yongguk's jacket, and beside Hyeri, walked Yongguk's own dog, Tigger. The first few moments were silent as he tried to figure out what to say, how to say it, what he wanted to know most. "Can I ask something?" He said quietly, the voices in the background completely faded out now as they started walking together into the Outskirts. "Did your ex boyfriend really treat you badly?" He had no idea why that was the first place he went, but it felt right asking.

As they got deeper into the mist of trees, Yongguk's face picked up on a certain feeling, one that he found soothing and relaxing, one that he loved. A droplet of rain fell down his nose, landing against his lip and disappearing. He smiled as he looked up at the sky, just in time for it to get heavier. "Wait." He replied, stopping in his tracks and unbuttoning the jacket that he wore so warmly. He successfully pulled it off his body, unsure why, he placed it over Hyeri's.

"I said to my boyfriend that I was going to just tell you where the directions to our hideout are, but you’re dyslexic - so I can take you there myself, i-if you want to go — I mean, you don’t have to go — really." She stuttered slightly and ran a hand down her face shaking her head. A sudden rumble in the sky allowed her to sigh all of a sudden. "I-It’s going to start raining, and I know you hate the rain. So walk and talk." She grabbed his coat and tugged him towards her, mumbling come on under her breath. “Do-Do you have anything to ask me, because you look confused and I don’t want you to feel that way.”

kisses from yongguk

[yongguk-tlou-blog]

Yongguk felt at ease once the man spoke, although the grip on his snarly pet was still strong, he stood before her vision, making it so she was unable to see the man. His eyes still avoided the girls, and stayed on the man's before him. Yongguk smiled as the man pulled who he was sure was now the man's girlfriend to his own side, perhaps, a little too roughly. Yongguk felt a feeling of sadness sweep over him as the man explained about the woman's sudden actions, his lips pursed together in a thin line, his smile dropped. 

Something felt wrong, something was wrong. Yongguk had no idea on how he had lost his memory, except that he had been in some trouble, and that's all he knew, everything after that was a blur. He sighed, wetting his suddenly dry lips with his moist tongue, standing up right as much as he possibly could. The man was so much older than the both of them, perhaps around late twenties or early thirties, he looked far too old to be with such a girl clearly as young and as beautiful as the one who stood beside him, although Yongguk had no right to judge their relationship, as he, well didn't even have one of his own. 

There was something about what had happened to the girl's ex boyfriend, something that felt all to similar and familiar to Yongguk. A sharp pain ran through his shoulder, and then the back of his head. His eyes closed, trying to cope with the pain, this was new to him. It was as if he could feel someone else's agony, like something had hit him in those exact areas, something blunt and somewhat like his very own bat. He was thankful though, as it only lasted a maximum of three seconds, perhaps less, he was unsure. Yongguk's eyes opened once again as he heard her voice stop the man from talking, begging him to stop telling the story of what happened, of the way her ex boyfriend treated her. 

It made him slightly mad, and for no apparent reason. He felt as though the man before him had no right to say anything about her ex, had it all wrong, or was assuming things he had no right too, and for no apparent reason either. "Oh, I uh-" His words paused, he had never been invited to dinner before, nor was his dog. He wasn't sure what to say, although, this may be an opportunity to make at least one friend. "I guess I can." He felt nerves in his stomach. "I- It's nice to meet you." Yongguk smiled up as he knelt down, once again raising his dog within his arms, hoping that it would calm her down, even just slightly. For the first time in minutes, Yongguk looked at the woman as she corrected the man beside her, addressing herself as Lee Hyeri. Yongguk felt so confused, he was sure that he had heard that name before, but he brushed it off as simply one of those names. He felt a sudden disappointment as the man introduced her as his one day wife, and once again, he had no right to feel that way.

"M- me?" Yongguk questioned. He felt something stopping him from speaking his name, he blinked his eyes several times, calling himself an idiot several times before speaking once again. "Yongguk, Bang Yongguk." He bowed as best he could. 

"Great, say you come to our house at eight?" Seungjae replied. Yongguk nodded, almost awkwardly turning away, Tigger in his arms and a confused, yet almost happy look upon his face.

"Lee Hyeri. Just Lee Hyeri. I’m a nurse, not a doctor." She smiled and bowed her head. She was figuring it all out. Slowly, but beginning a foundation. She wasn’t dreaming, and he wasn’t a ghost. Bang Yongguk was very much alive, and this was very much him. She could tell by his eyes, his smile, even the way he wore his clothes. It was times like these where Hyeri was glad she had medical knowledge. "Lee Hyeri, the woman I will one day marry." Seungjae nodded and looked back towards Yongguk. "And you are, son?" 

[yongguk-tlou-blog]

As her arms swept around him, Yongguk felt confused. His breath stopped for a second, as did his heart. He wasn't sure why, but it felt so right holding her in his arms, having her close to him, this strange woman. But that's just what she was, a stranger, someone he was sure he had never met before, although he still couldn't let go. He wanted to hold her so close to him, save her from whatever troubles came her way, he wondered if he knew her before this encounter, who she was, and why she was acting almost delirious. Her face felt warm against his own, as her tears began to fall. 

His lip began to shake, maybe she thinks I'm someone else, he thought to himself as he sighed, tightening his grip around her. Maybe she just needed someone to hold her for a while, and Yongguk surely wasn't going to deny someone as beautiful as her something as simple as a shoulder to cry on. That was until she began muttering things that he didn't understand, she couldn't have missed someone she had never met before. He gulped softly, narrowing his eyebrows together once more as she continued to speak, looking everywhere but at her. His grip loosened around her, although he still held onto her close. 

His eyes shifted from side to side, how couldn't figure out how her body felt so right being in his arms, why the heartbeat he felt against his own made him feel protective, like he wanted nothing to ever stop it. It all didn't make sense, although, barely anything did these days. He was so sure he had never met this girl before, and yet he felt like she belonged with him, in his arms, and even the tears were falling from her eyes, he felt as though it was all right to be happening with him. 

In love? What in her right mind was she on about now, the things she was making up before, Yongguk could deal with, but love, that felt almost too far. He removed his hands from around her body, slowly, but only to make sure she was able to stand on her own two feet without his support, but her arms didn't let go. "I- what..." Yongguk stuttered, freezing in what felt like time. For an unknown reason, the words wanted to spill from his very own lips too, but he forced them back down.

His mind began to throb against his skull, but only slightly. His body wanted step back slightly; but his feet couldn't move., his eyes still avoiding her, looking down at the now dusty cement.  Another voice caught his attention, although he couldn't look up to see who was speaking to him, instead, the sound of Tigger's deep growl bought him back to reality. His eyes looked slightly over to his right, her teeth were being shown as another person stepped near them, Yongguk looked up and saw another man. 

Her hands gripped harder onto his jacket, she appeared to be hiding from the man that was coming towards them. He wanted to speak, ask what was going on, if not with her own words, why she was hiding from the man who called her name, but each time he opened his mouth, he felt physically sick. Tigger stood to her own two feet, walking towards the side of both Yongguk and the emotional girl, her hackles began to stand up as a deep, violent bark echoed through the market. Yongguk pushed himself from the girl, as much as he hated to come across as rude, he just wanted to protect the only being that he knew. 

Yongguk's hand gripped around the oddly viscous dog. "Stop it." He whispered, although Tigger refused to calm down as the man got closer. Yongguk sighed, searching for something to take his dog away with, and leave. His mind began bouncing from side to side, worrying. He knew how meaningless pets were, even without much memory stored within his mind, although he couldn't find anything. Her sharp, white teeth began showing beneath her jowls, and all Yongguk could think to do, as much as he hated the idea of it, was to grip the roll of puppy fat she had on her neck. "Sorry, I'll be going." He politely bowed to the other man who began slipping his arm between the girls.

"Wait a minute..." The man ordered, clearly this girl's boyfriend, and if not that, husband. Yongguk obeyed, his eyes stuck to the ground still as he blocked the view of the man from Tigger. "Why is she crying?" The man's voice was stern, looking over at the girl and then back to Yongguk.

"I don't know, I really don't. My dog ran up to her and I came to get her back and take her with me but then she started crying and hugged me and I'm so sorry for hugging her back. You see..." Yongguk continued to ramble on, making up excuses as to why he was hugging this man's woman. "I don't even know who she is."

"I-I miss you, you know?" She closed her eyes. She was so incredibly lost. "I watch the stars and wish that I see a falling star. I pray that you will come back to me, every single night … for the past year." She sniffled, her thoughts running wild, her heart thumping in her chest, her breathe hitching in her throat. "I’ve slept with my gun under my pillow for the past year - dreaming, hoping I’d one day have a reason to use it." She bit her lip, fluttering the tear drops off her eyelashes. "I dream about you, and I think about you every single day — and even after all this time, I am still in love with you.”  "What in god’s name is going on here!?" A loud voice suddenly shouted, and Hyeri jumped, and she clutched his coat. Please don’t let me fall, don’t let him take me from you. Take me with you. We can be together again, but then again - did we ever leave one another? 

[yongguk-tlou-blog]

He laughed, looking at the happy face staring behind him. Watching as the girl pulled her hand onto Tigger's coat. "Yeah, she likes to get out and explore." He began explaining, he had no idea whether or not the girl before him even cared what he had to say, but he couldn't stop talking. "But she doesn't have to worry, she knows I'll always save her." He smiled, fixing the grip he held on her. He narrowed his eyebrows, wondering how a dog could remind someone of a human being, unless of course, this woman was talking about a pet that she had lost.

He studied her face, her skin was soft and lighter than his own, her eyes were dark and somewhat familiar to him, although he couldn't pin point where he knew them from. Her eyes moved from Tigger's and to Yongguk's, and her expression dropped. She took her hand from Tigger, and stepped back, almost looking as though she was having some sort of meltdown. Yongguk stood there, shifting his eyes from side to side, trying to figure out what was wrong. "N- no?" He questioned, cocking his eyebrow as he stared at her almost off color face.

Immediately, out of what felt like habit, he set Tigger down before he watched the girl fall to the floor, his hands quickly reached for her and to his luck, his hands caught her body before it hit the ground. His eyes picked up on her own, the water forming within them, how her cheeks began turn to an almost flustered colour. "A- are you okay?" He questioned, his face only a few inches away from her own. He could feel eyes on the two of them. "Do you need me to take you to the hospital?" His voice was calm, but inside he was in a panic. He may not have been able to remember much, but he knew that the hospital was her best shot of feeling better.

Yongguk's body was lanky, slim and tiny, but he was sure if he was able to hold an almost full grown animal in his arms, he'd be able help this girl stand to her clearly wobbly feet. He stood up right once more, helping the girl as he did so. His hands wouldn't leave from her body, no matter how hard he tried to pull them away. Something inside of him was telling him to let go, but there seemed to be a louder voice in his head telling him to remember something, something important.

She stumbled back a little, only to fall over her own feet. Her eyes watered, her cheeks reddened only from embarassment. She held back everything she wanted to say to him, and especially her actions. She wanted to hold him, and his cute dog in her arms ; but she couldn’t because this wasn’t real. She was dream. Hyeri clenched her teeth, her bottle lip trembling.  "I-I-" She couldn’t go on, she hadn’t any idea what to say. What did you say when the man you loved and cherished and wanted back, who was actually dead was before you? I am dreaming, this is a dream.  Bang Yongguk is dead and this is all apart of my silly, stupid, childish imagination.

[yongguk-tlou-blog]

[yongguk-tlou-blog]

The cold air stuck to Yongguk's dark skin, making his nose hurt from the cold, but he felt relieved it wasn't scorching hot from the sun now. He walked along the street, his boots crunching against wreckage every so often. His hand was nudged by a wet, black nose, one that made him smile uncontrolably. His eyes fell, looking down at his friend that sat at his hip, her slim physique somewhat suiting Yongguk's own figure. "We're nearly there, you just have to wait." He whispered, kneeling down and looking into her dark eyes, they sparkled with love, nothing unusual when she looked at the man who had taken her in, given her a home on that hot summers night, given her food and water, and love. He knew there was no food around the Shack anymore, nothing that either of them were able to eat anyway, which is why he had left the shack, and bought along his best friend.

He stood back to his feet after allowing Tigger's nose to push against his own. Walking forwards, hearing both of their steps along the cold cement, he began wondering if he had ever come here before, before losing all the memories he had made, also nothing unusual. He could hear the chatter of people ahead of him, making his heart warm, knowing that he was close to the market now. He sighed before his feet began to travel up the set of steps, walking up about five or six, he entered the market. "Now, you know what to do." Yongguk smiled, looking down and lightly slapping his palm against the side of Tigger's face, pushing the side of her face into his leg. "Don't go where you're not supposed too, and meet back here in fifteen minutes okay." He didn't care how crazy he may have appeared for talking to not a human, but a dog. Tigger was all he had, she was his life, best friend and girl.

He watched as she began to trot away, laughing to himself before walking in the opposite direction. He was searching for scraps of hunted, wild animals, things that would be useful and didn't need things that were to vulnerable for trade, although he didn't really have anything all that useful to anyone, he hoped that what he carried in his pockets would do. Coming to the market once a week, for the past three months, he had learned who to go to for the correct things he needed, and who to be served by. His still thin, lanky legs led him towards his first destination, the place he was able to collect scraps of wild animals, metals and anything that he was able to use for Tigger, also including home-made toys that the nice elderly woman had began stitching together simply for Yongguk's dog.

Before he was able to pick up what he needed, trade his own belongings for things that would make his dog happy, he heard a woman's scream, saying something like "get that mutt out of here." Dammit Tigger, he thought to himself before running towards where the scream had surfaced from. It didn't take long for him to reach the middle of the market, it was rather crowded, and there seemed to be no sign of his dog. A loud crash filled the air, making him worry even more, he couldn't afford to lose her, his stomach grew tighter as he continued to search for his menace of a daughter-like animal. 

His legs stopped as he saw the bony behind of his pet, her tail wagging and staring at someone. He rolled his eyes, stepping towards her as quickly as he could. "What happened, you're not hurt are you?" Yongguk panicked once again as he stood behind Tigger, scanning her body to check for any wounds, safe. "You had me worried sick, I thought you were being chased by maniacs and I'd have to save you, like last time." After a few moments, he realized the hand that Tigger was sniffing, his body froze as he realized that he had just spoken to a dog, in public, in front of another human being.

"I'm so sorry about her." He spoke as he looked up, seeing a set of eyes that looked back at him, smiling, he raised the large dog in his arms, standing up right and holding her close to his chest. Her paws wrapped around his neck, acting as though she was some sort of child.

She looked down, and noticed this huge dog, a Doberman, that had began licking her hand. She jumped and turned around, and by no means was the dog going to attack. It wagged it’s tail and Hyeri grinned, kneeling to get a better look at the dog. Big eyes, a wet nose, it was healthy for sure. What a sweetheart. Hyeri’s smile widened and she began to pet the dog, mumbling things about how cute and friendly it seemed, and yet she’d only just began to think to herself about how much it reminded her of someone.  Yongguk.

❣: Describe a way that will earn affection (whether platonic or romantic) from them.

Now days, Yongguk is a gentle man, so perhaps he may even just be affectionate to someone he feels he can be. But before, he was very physical, meaning that there were only certain ways to get him to be affectionate. isnt that right hyeri woops

☆ , ☁ , ☢ , ✗ , ♡

☆ : Would they ever wish upon a falling star? If so, what would they wish?

Yongguk would wish for his memory to come back to him, for everything to be like it used to be, whether or not it bought him pain, he just wants to know who he really is and what his life was about.

☁ : Describe how they would spend a stormy, overcast/rainy day.

Before, he would have spent them inside, probably saying some vulgar words to himself about how much he hated the rain, how much pain and suffering it bought upon him. But now, he loves it, he’d want to go outside and may even wish it rained everyday. 

☢ : Describe a thought or dream that would cause them to have a mental meltdown.

A dream that would bring him a lot of pain, would be one about Hyeri. Just seeing her face but not knowing who she is, how much she means to him, anything about her would drive him crazy, especially if the dream was somewhat of a flashback of one of their memories they shared, that or a dream of Yongnam. 

✗ : Explain how they portray feelings of hostility or dislike.

Before, he’d use his expression within his voice to show someone he disliked them, if it was a woman that is, otherwise, it’s hit first and talk later. But now, he’d walk away from the situation, avoid whoever he disliked and continue living his life.

✏ : What are their creative outlets?

Yongguk isn't exactly the most creative person.

✉ : Do they tend to rely on words or actions more?

Well before losing his memory, Yongguk was very physical and preferred using his body to either get things done, or show someone how he felt wink hyeri wink. But these days, he's the complete opposite, knows how to word things and is quite a sweet man. 

♡ : Is there a certain scent that brings about nostalgia? If so, describe a memory this scent brings back.

For the old Yongguk, it would have been the girly perfume that Hyeri wore. It would have bought back all the nights he spent with her, everything they did together and just her pretty face in general. But now, nothing.
