You see, my life was what people would call 'uneventful'

Not that I had any problem with it.

It was boring, it was quiet, and there was nothing fun I ever looked forward to but I liked it.

Do you know what a casual day for me went like?

Wake up, breakfast, two hour bus ride, serve customers, running to catch another bus and serving other people, rushing back home and sleeping.

Boring you might say but the peace was what I liked.

I mean, I was twenty seven, male and I had a roof over my head that wasn't done by dubious means so of course that's a good thing!

Unless of course, the times I got so horny and realized I had no girlfriend.

Don't get me wrong, I'm pretty hot (he's definitely not) so girls always want me (lie) but I always have work so I'm preoccupied.

(Major lie right there)

Though it sucks, watching hentai every single day and jacking off to screens that were possibly having a way better moment that I was even though they weren't real.

But hey!

I love my life!

(Greatest L)

Still, when I had free time, I always went visiting Hal abeoji, my grandpa that was sick and my last surviving family member.

The rest of my family had died in a crash while I stayed over with my grandparents and grandma had passed on some couple of months after them so it was just me and Hal abeoji.

Except of course, being sick seemed to have worsen his stubborn attitude.

"Hello" I say to the nurse behind the counter "I'm looking for Park Jin Woo please"

"And you are?"

"His grandson, Park Hoseon Woo"

"Ah, I see, he's been expecting you a while. You know where he is of course"

I did, but i just wanted to spend a little of my time staring at those jugs of hers.

Don't get me wrong, I'm no pervert but if she had worn something so revealing she must have obviously, most definitely, wanted to grab some attention.

"Park Hoseon Woo?"

I look up at her face, my cheeks coloring as i say "Yes, sorry. I'd be on my way now"

I knew the way down the corridor like they were engraved behind my head because I'd been coming here ever since I left highschool.

I would have gone to college too, but then I wasn't really bright, plus, I needed to foot Hal abeoji bills, and running back and forth all that distance would kill me before my job did so I never eventually did (Hal abeoji of course resents this)

As I reach his ward door, I hear his orderly telling him something, reprimanding perhaps as he grumbles, light chuckles leaving my mouth as I open the door and say "Hal abeoji!"

As he faces me, joy lights his face but he quickly frowns and says "Finally had time you horrible grandson?"

I give an embarrassed chuckle and scratch my head "You know it's not like that. Sorry"

He scoffs as the orderly says "I would give you both time, and Park Hoseon. Don't let him pull off his IV anymore"

I nod, even though I know that i have limited authority over him before she smiles and leaves the room.

Immediately she does so, Hal abeoji who had been lying all though suddenly sits up, scoffing and ripping it off his hand again "Who does she think she is? Trying to tell me how to die and how not to"

"Hal abeoji, I think you should..."

"And you!"

The pillow hits my face before I can dodge as he says "Didn't come to see me in two weeks! Useless! At least tell me you did that and finally became a non virgin"

"Hal abeoji!"

He sighs, shaking his head "Still useless. You know, at your age, no, before your age, I already had a body count of 50 and was a gang leader"

Here we go.

"And so did your Father. I would say you're really not my grandson but your Omma was a good woman so I will not divert into that"

Thank you.

"Ya"

I turn to him as he says "Are you gay?"

I splitter, choke and gag as I say "Hal abeoji!"

"There's nothing wrong, at least you wouldn't be a virgin anymore so I'd be glad"

I sigh, scratching my head "I'm not. That's gross and you know I can't do have time for sex yet. I still have you..."

"I must have failed you"

The sudden sadness in his voice has me sitting up as he says "All this time, I should have been the one taking care of you, but you spent all your years making sure I was okay. Missed college too. Never bright though, but it'd have been good for you"

I laugh nervously again as I say "It doesn't matter you know. You're family so I'm supposed to..."

"Park Hoseon Woo"

"Yes?"

"Come here"

I do so, sitting on the bed next to him as he lays back down and holds my hand, a smile.on his face "After I die, promise me. You'd live life to the fullest"

"Hal abeoji...."

His grip on me tightened as he said "Promise me!"

"Yes! I promise" I say, hoping he'd stop as he suddenly sighs and let's his hands rest next to him.

I stare at the quiet sleeping figure, my heart beat racing as I say "Hal abeoji? Hal abeoji?!..."

The slap on my head and shove sends pain to my brain and my butt as he yells "I'm trying to fucking sleep! Fucktard!"

Sigh, meanie.

Still....

He died the next day, happy, and after that, I really wasn't sure what to do anymore.

I cremated him, and poured his ashes in a lake, alone because he didn't have so many friends and I had none.

Working had lost its flavour because he used to be my reason for being at my best behavior and trying not to get fired.

A week after his death, I lost my jobs.

Because of that, I spent the coming weeks in my house, eating, sleeping or jerking off to hentai and repeating my sad life over again.

Within that time.

I never left the house.

Yes, I wished to die, but I was never brave enough to actually go through with it so that was why the day I finally left and got hit by a truck.

I wasn't angry.

I was grateful.

Finally, peace.

But you see, Fate was a bitch and it hated me a lot.

*

Wait....

Why... Why am I hearing voices?

And....

And why in the lord's name am I breathing?!

"The poison had a slight effect but it's been washed off his system so he's fine"

Poison?

No, no, I was bit by a truck. I removed the blood, and the sound, and that pain, and the voices...

I bloody DIED.

Was this some sort of sick joke by God?

"Good news is that the baby is okay"

"Baby!"

This time, I'm the one sitting up, staring at two people I've never met in my life.

Both wearing clothes I've never...

Hold on.

I look around the place, the building structure is different.... Different than what it should be, if it was a hospital...

"Hyung!"

One of the figures jumps on me and I find myself shoving him off as he groans, staring at me with puppy eyes "That hurt"

That face....

Why.... Why is he so hot?

"I see you're awake. The prince will be pleased"

I look up at the second man that I assume is the doctor because of the white cloak he's wearing and say "Where am I?"

"In the palace of course"

Palace?

"You're joking" I say, letting out a small chuckle "There's no way... Is this a TV show?"

The other one I'd pushed off is now on all fours, his eyes curiously lit up and if he had a tail, it would be wagging as he says "What's a TV?"

What's a....

Ah, I see.

I probably hit my head too hard and I'm having a concussion, or even better, I'm in a coma.

Makes sense.

"Hyung"

The cute guy is suddenly all up in my face and trying to wrap his arms around me as he says "I was really worried that you were hurt though"

"Lord Tae Hyun! If the Prince finds you..."

The male moves back now, giggling as he says "He wouldn't do anything. He knows Kim Min Ho and I are best friends. Aren't we? Min ho?"

Best friends?

Just play along, it'd help you, save you, exactly.

Who knows? You might be getting surgery right now and would soon wake up from this bizarre dream.

"Why yes" I say.

His face lights up as he says "Yes! You admit it! Ha! To Chan Yeol"s face!" Then he gets sad again as he says "Still though... You didn't tell me you were pregnant. That really hurt"

My mind does a double take as I say "Pregnant?"

He nods "Yes, yes, Choi Yuri was so happy. The bastard"

"But... But I'm a man...."

I am right?

God please, let me still be a man, I haven't fucked yet so at least save THAT for me.

"So?" He says "It's rare though, but it happens. Stop acting surprised" Then he leans in so close again his green eyes seem to draw me in his mind "Or did the poison mess with your head too?"

I try to speak, but he's so close...

He's so...

Suddenly, he's being ripped off me and thrown somewhere across the room and I feel it.

The presence in front of me.

Its overwhelming, powerful even....

And as I look up...

"You're finally awake. Kim Min Ho"

That voice...

My stomach seems to turn into knots as I see his face.

Standing in front of me is a male with long black hair and pale skin, wearing a white hanbok and trousers, red eyes that screamed power looking at me.

I try to talk but nothing comes out from my mouth and I watch his lips pull into a smirk as he bends down, now holding my chin as he says quietly "Well, this silence is uncomfortable. What? You don't know how to welcome your Prince and Betrothed anymore?"

....

What in actual fuck?
