They arrived to the theater. Hyungwon bought them tickets and popcorn. There weren't many people and they would get good seats without other people distracting them.
They sat in one couch that was next to the place where the movie would be shown as they waited that they could get in.
"I haven't been in movies for so long", Hyungwon said, eating some of the popcorn already.
"Me neither", Hoseok lied. He had been just last week with some young girl. "We should make this a habit. Let's go to movies together often."
"Sure."
"Have you seen the previous Star Treks?" he asked, only earning an excited nod from Hyungwon. "They are my favorite movies. I like all the actors in them."
"I think the Russian guy is cute", Hyungwon said.
"Me too. I cried a little when I found out that the actor died", Hoseok took a few popcorn himself.
"He died?"
"Oh my god. You didn't know", he gasped and looked at Hyungwon whose whole face had dropped even more than usually. "I'm sorry, I should've kept quiet."
"It's okay", Hyungwon assured although he felt a bit sad that he hadn't know about the death of that actor.
"The best die young", Hoseok sighed.
It got quiet for a while before his phone rang. He took it quickly from his pocket. Hyungwon saw that it was unknown number before Hoseok answered it.
"Yes - of course - I'm so sorry Mr. Lee - I have an explanation - yes - I'll be there", Hoseok spoke to his phone. Hyungwon couldn't hear what the other person said so he had to guess. He got sad because he knew his guess was right.
"You have to go, don't you", he said when the call had ended.
"I'm sorry Hyungwon", Hoseok looked apologetic. "I forgot I had work today."
"It's okay. We can go watch this some other day", Hyungwon threw the popcorn cone to trash.
"I truly am sorry. See you later", Hoseok said before running out of the theater.
Hyungwon sat there for a while before leaving home. He felt awful because he had totally forgotten that Hoseok - unlike him - had a life. He felt somewhat jealous that Hoseok went with other friends, even if they were fake. He wondered if unlike everything Hoseok had said, he was still just a job to Hoseok. Did Hoseok still want Hyungwon to pay him?
He walked home alone, feeling completely miserable. He hated himself for letting Hoseok too close and forgetting that no one - especially not Hoseok - could be with him always.
He sat on his bed, staring at his phone, waiting for a phone call the whole day. He wondered if Hoseok even had his number saved. He didn't have that client's from today so why he would have Hyungwon's then?
He waited for a doorbell to ring but no one came. Not Hoseok, not Aunt Park.
"See you later", had been the last thing Hoseok said to him and Hyungwon tried to held onto that. He would see Hoseok soon. It was already pretty late now.
Meanwhile Hyungwon was home, overthinking and punishing himself for everything, Hoseok was home too.
He sat under a small light, counting money from the box with all his savings and looking through his this month's bills, ripping his hair out because he didn't have enough.
After today's customer, he had gotten fired. He had screwed up the whole thing when he had left to that guy's home with him after the lunch date. He thought he had gotten much money from it but now when we counted, the sum was disappointing and Hoseok must've been tripping because he had seen it to be much bigger when he promised to do that with the guy.
On top of all that, the guy sold him out. It had been a trap.
"I have been tolerating your bullshit for too long but now you crossed the line by having sex with that customer", his boss had practically yelled at him as he had been fired.
Hoseok was helpless. After everything he had done he still didn't have money to pay rent and other bills.
He called to his telephone company and cancelled his subscription.
Now when he was still able to use his phone for a while, he called all the places he knew that were hiring part time workers.
He was so busy trying to get his life together that he totally forgot about Hyungwon who couldn't even sleep because he was waiting for Hoseok to call.
Hoseok went to sleep at three in the morning after digging every corner of his house to find more money. He had to wake up at six for his new part time job as a cleaner in some fast food place.
