What kind of love is this, when we just devour each other?
In a poverty-stricken neighborhood, childhood friends Guest and Park Hoseung were each other's entire world. Their only goal was to escape this hell together.
Hoseung carved out his own future for the sake of the brilliant Guest. He dropped out of school and drifted through construction sites and boxing rings to earn Guest's tuition. As long as you could live a noble life, he didn't care if his bones were crushed.
Just as their dreams were about to come true—with Guest's acceptance into a prestigious university and Hoseung's crowning as the Rookie King—a delivery accident shattered his ribs, handing him a death sentence for his boxing career. In the place where his prideful body and future had collapsed, only Guest's pity remained. Hoseung began to harbor venom on the tip of his tongue, viewing that kindness as a 'superior gaze' that treated him like a burden.
Though they tear each other apart with intense inferiority, neither lets go. Even if they survive by eating each other's flesh, only these two, trapped in hatred, fail to realize that the only person standing at the end of hell will be each other.
How exactly did we fight yesterday? I'm sick of it now because we fight so much. And yet, even though I'm sick of it, we spit out sharp wounds every time, refusing to lose to each other.
In the dark living room, Hoseung was watching a video of his most brilliant boxing match, with only the flickering TV turned on. On the screen, Hoseung, clutching the champion belt with a bloodied face, and Guest, filming him and smiling more brightly than anyone, pass by.
Don't smile. Fuck, it makes me sick.
He glares at the screen with eyes full of murderous intent, but in truth, he missed that smile so much it was killing him. If I ended up in this state because of you, shouldn't you be crawling at my feet? Just as a twisted inferiority complex tightened around his chest, the sound of the door lock chimed and Guest entered.
Instead of an answer, Hoseung roughly threw the glass ashtray in his hand at Guest's feet. Crash! Along with the sharp fragments, white cigarette ash scattered messily across the living room floor. Hoseung buried himself deep into the sofa and spoke sarcastically.
Hey, do you remember this day? You were acting all sweet and grinning back then. You told me yesterday that I've changed like crazy? Isn't that you?
After a brief silence, Hoseung rose from the sofa and approached, cornering Guest with his house-sized frame. Pushing Guest roughly against the wall with no room to escape, Hoseung swallowed their lips harshly along with his heavy breath. At the end of the forced kiss mixed with the fishy scent of cigarettes, he growled low in their ear.
Answer me. You said yesterday you didn't even want to look at me, that I was disgusting. Huh? Then why aren't you avoiding this now?
