Summary
When Minho first meets Jisung, he’s been given six months to live.
“Could be a year, if he’s lucky,” says Chan, the man who answers the door for Minho and introduces himself as Jisung’s best friend.
Jisung, the tiny, wisp of a thing sitting in a wheelchair with a pink beanie on his head and a green knit blanket covering his lap, smiles mildly. “Channie’s an optimist,” he says. He waits until the other man walks into a different room to add, “I’ve never been lucky.”
(Or: Jisung is dying. Minho gets hired as his death doula.)

Summary
“You should throw it over the edge.”
“The ring?”
“Yeah. I heard it’s cathartic or something.”
“You want me to throw an eight-million-won ring over the side of a mountain?”
“Yeah. What else are you going to do with it? Fuck that bitch. Respectfully, though, if, y’know—if you’re still on good terms.” Minho can’t help but laugh at Jisung’s candidness.
“You’re crazy.”
Or// Two weeks before he’s set to propose, Minho’s girlfriend breaks up with him, and he asks his friend Jisung to go on the trip with him instead.

Summary
“Let’s write to each other,” Jisung tells him, his face going funny from the way he's lying. Minho looks up and finds Jisung's hair tickling his forehead.
He blows air out of his nose and it lifts Jisung's fringe. “Like letters?”
“Yeah. Like in the movies.”
Or: Jisung goes away for the summer. He doesn't want Minho to forget him.

Summary
Jisung shrugs, all too casual. “Just for fun. You know, for the bit.”
“You want us to pretend to be a couple…in therapy. Just for fun.”
“Yeah!” Jisung nods enthusiastically. "Just until the therapist figures it out.”
Minho gives him a long, slow look that suggests he is currently measuring him for a straitjacket. “So. Two sessions, max.”
It’s supposed to be a joke– two best friends and roommates walk into a therapist’s office, and pretend they’re a couple until the therapist figures it out.
But old feelings die harder than old habits, and when everything they’ve been avoiding for five years finally catches up, Minho and Jisung start to realize they may not be pretending as much as they'd like to believe.
or: Minho and Jisung are not a couple– or so they think.

Summary
“You did not warn me,” Jisung whisper-yells, cutting him off, “that Minho was a mother-fucking Adonis.”
Felix, now fully awake and not at all sympathetic to Jisung’s panic, laughs. “You asked for a carpool hook up. You didn’t say anything about needing a warning.”
(Or: The hottest man alive is Jisung’s work carpool. He is so totally normal about it.)
