@↓ Chueolyong That night, after what it seemed like a couple of minutes but took longer than that, Hansol arrived to his house and closed the main door. The smile and voice sound of his ex boyfriend couldn't not be forgotten and kept him walking like a zombie. When yong left to model around the world, Hansol thought he knew everything about him already and wished him happiness even if it meant they had to be apart. He had been convincing himself he could live without him but this new events caught his attention strongly, he's always been curious and attracted to unknown and somehow he felt like there was a while side to Yong that he did not know at all. Sleeping that night was way harder than he expected

@↑ Hansol Churolyong was was feeling content, especially after the kiss was placed on his foread by the taller male. Giving a soft hum he's feeling more confident for the future as he closes the door once Hansol is past the gated entrance.

@↓ Chueolyong Hansol watched yong moving around the kitchen, his smile was soft but still evident, his heart was feeling warmer than he had ever felt for the last years and he knew the reason. A goodnight kiss was not expected, even more his name being called like that, years without someone calling him sollie, Yong was indeed breaking his walls in just a blink and somehow, it was scaring him. "goodnight yong" se signed and mouth, smiling at the peck and leaning closer to leave one on the older's forehead, knowing he was taller. Hansol pilled away after a couple of seconds and offer one last smile before leaving through the door with slow steps, he had to go even if he didn't want to

@↑ Hansol The two continued to converse as they made their way through the house, stopping at the kitchen where Chueolyong dropped off the glasses and tossed the bottle before he follow Hansol to the door. He stood there, trying so hard not to rock on the hells of feet as he tries to delay saying good night to the other. But even he can't delay the inevitable. "G-goodnight Sollie" he says, leaning forward to place a peck on Hansol's cheek. If there was one word that Chueolyong was going to make sure he says perfectly, it was going to be Hansol's name.

@↓ Chueolyong The smile and laugh, the sound of it was so unreal. Hansol was used to the silence between them and grown up to love it whenever it came to Yong, but this new experience was driving him insane, so beautiful, just like him. It was evident yong was teasing him but he didn't care, Hansol was still mesmerized by the sound of it, "well i practiced a lot, it has to be cool" he signed again, following the model like a puppy as soon as they crossed the door frame, forgetting time and space and just waiting to hear more of it

@↑ Hansol Even with the years, it still seem that the younger is still as expressively transparent as ever, and Chueolyong is thankful for that. Seeing that the other is proud of him, his smile grows, but his choice of wording has him laughing. Never before has he heard a voice described as cool. "I'm p-proud of y-your s-signing. I-Its cool t-too." he says, using the same word for the younger wanting to a bit. Cheuolyong stands up as well, pocketing his phone as he grabs the empty glasses and bottle, following the younger through the door, just wanting to have even a couple more minutes with him.

@↓ Chueolyong The surprise made him not only speechless, Hansol couldn't move at all when he heard the other speaking like that. He knew Yong talked a little before but he had never expect such a long sentence and with that skill. Even when his words where now a bit colder and calculate than he was when 23, his face expression would fail him reveal how transparent his heart was abd how fast was beating just cause of those words. "Your speaking is amazing, in proud" he signed out with a wider smile, his big eyes bright like the lights around, he felt like a little boy excited to go to the amusement park, tho he didn't want to go anywhere right now "you're voice sounds.. cool" he signed out again and laugh a bit embarrassed for his sudden excitement

@↑ Hansol Chueolyong always had to makes things clear from the start, simply because of the way he communicates he can't leave much of anything to simple assumptions. Seeing the confirmation his eyes lit up as he nods in agreement. What caught him off guard was the signs he received. They weren't slow nor hesitant, and Chueolyong feels his heart swelling that the other decided to continue learning. "My r-room is s-still the same. Y-you're welcome t-to come over a-any time." he speaks out, he still has a bit of a stutter that comes with certain letters and pronunciations. While his speech is not perfect it is better and much more confident than it was the years before.

@↓ Chueolyong Hansol simply nodded, he knew his career came along with good and bad sides, just as being a famous model could be. The next part tho really called his attention, Yong has always been this clear. It was something Hansol has missed a lot from the people around too, seems like he has missed more things about the older than he thought. 'well, we are then.' he typed and hand it bag, Hansol took his last long sip and left the glass on the table before standing up. "It's time for me to leave" he signed to the other's eyes, he finished his lessons and now could fluently use it. Sadly he had no one around to talk with it now

@↑ Hansol Chueolyong hums, 'you're only doing your job. People sometimes just don't see that.' He types, the shy smile returning 'can never be to sure, I would like us to be on the same page instead of assuming that we are' He says noticing how bright the screen is. Looking around the sun was so longer out, being replaced with the oncoming night and stars making their appearance known. 'It's pretty out

@↓ Chueolyong 'cunning is a gentle way to describe it. But people usually find us annoying after a while. I'm still Hansol tho' he typed his reply and took one more sip before continuing 'i thought we were already on our way to find it out' he handed the device back, truly willing to find it out. The sun was no longer around and the lights were now shining like a couple of starts in the sky. It would soon be time for him to leave the house but at the same time, he wanted to stay for a little longer tonight

@↑ Hansol Chueolyong has to nod in agreement with the words he's reading, but maybe it's because he knows the Hansol of the past and not the present so seeing him being mean is a concept for foreign it sounds silly. It still makes him giggle. 'Mean or cunning? I've thought lawyers had to be cunning.' He types out, the smile remaining on his face, 'do you want to find out?' He asks handed the device over. Finishing the wine in his glass, he pours another for himself and Hansol once his class is empty.

@↓ Chueolyong Hansol took the device back in his hand, a soft smile remain on his lips as he read, silently trying to figure out if his previous joke was actually a fact. He took a small sip of wine before typing his reply 'but now things are different and you can't tell if being around me for longer then an hour feels the same. I'm a lawyer, i can be a little unfriendly' he decided to let things be and be honest with the way he was taking the situation 'maybe we are, we still don't know that yet.' he handed the device back

@↑ Hansol Chueolyong could tell the other was joking just by his expression, and slowly the comfort he felt within the silence was starting to return. 'Not true, you were doing it when I was only a small time model doing local mall ads.' He refutes. His smiles grows at the last sentence. 'So, we are meant to be?' He asks, handing the device back to Hansol.

@↓ Chueolyong The chuckle sound drove Hansol back to those years when he was curious for how yong's laughing would sound, how desperate he was to listen it and making him realize how badly he has missed it. He read the screen, making him laugh this time and typed his answer 'what a cold way to say we're meant to be' he was joking but he agreed, eventually they had to meet again 'you missed ordinary people? Only celebrities have that kind of feeling. But i get your point, it's good to see you again' he handed the device back, being honest at the last part
