i went to the store today, and saw an old friend. she's pregnant now, already in her sixth month. i could hardly believe it, and she looked so radiant and glowing that i even felt happy for her. her belly is a giant ball just popping out of her body, so delicately, you want to tug at it to see if it's real. but she let me touch her belly, which is nice of her, kind of her even. i think she's finally warming up to me. i think the baby will be beautiful. if only you could hear its heart beating like i did. when i pressed my ear against her belly really close, people thought i was the dad. but i can't be the dad. i only love one person in my life. do you remember her name? i forgot it, it's been a decade since we've been in high school together. i didn't like her back then, but since she's pregnant and happy, very much happy with her husband, i'm glad. i'm really glad. i think i'm a nice person. do you know i'm a nice person? you should, we've been best friends for longer than i've known her, and we'll keep being best friends. you're not smiling. but at least i know what you're really thinking, i know your heart like the back of my hand. what's wrong? you're really not going to smile? she's happy. she really is. she even said she wants to tell you the news personally, but i don't think that's a good idea. you're not well. why are you always looking at me like that? stop it. we're like this now because of you. you had to ruin it with her. she's better off now, and you should be happy. it's not like she really liked you, since she moved on and had a baby with someone else. it's not my fault! you knew i hated her! why did you go out with her! she was a slut whore face! why couldn't you understand that? i told you so many times. it's come down to this. it's the only way i know you'll stop. you know, even when you stopped listening to me, you still trusted me didn't you? i know you, even better than you know yourself. that's why you needed me, and now you'll need me forever. oh, sorry, you want more ice? the bathtub isn't the best place, but you'll rot if i don't preserve you. why are you crying? myungsoo, you can tell me. we're alone.

holy shit, that is not what I was expecting. wow. you don't see the insanity creeping up until the end, and you really don't even see the change happening until it's too late.

This is amazing. I was confused at the sudden switch when Sungjong mentioned that he only loved one person (but I figured out who he meant later) and had to reread this a lot because I'm pretty of out of it at the moment, but every time I did, I could just imagine all sorts of things because I've just realized that this is all just dialogue. And for some reason in my brain the format of the text and that it's all in lower case makes me feel like it ties in with the theme that you're writing but it works really well because even though there weren't any breaks, I just kept going through it like the one-sided conversation it is. *-* Sorry if I don't make any sense lol
