Woo-Bin released the kiss and Hae-won dropped his head. It was a bit straining to kiss in that position but he was just glad Woo-Bin was okay.
Then, he felt Woo-Bin drop his head on his shoulder. This action was just so that he could hide the flush on his face and how overwhelmed he was.
"I'm sorry." He apologised. "I shouldn't have done that."
"Woo-Bin, don't apologise." Hae-won said. "It's normal to do these things."
Woo-Bin was silent.
"Sun-bae, I didn't know I had romantic feelings for you. I always thought I liked your character and your personality. And you made it clear that you didn't want to date anyone so I thought that being friends was enough and never cultivated those feelings that were creeping in my heart."
Hae-won listened silently. He had no idea these were the thoughts that filled Woo-Bin's mind even while they were friends.
