( i want my brother back, she thinks. i want the last year and change to be some kind of bad dream. i want to be a dancer in the korean national ballet, and have people from all over the world come to watch me perform. i want someone to always be watching me, whether i'm dancing or not. i want to feel protected. i want to never, ever be lonely again. )
[ it's never been about permission in the end, was it? all these lines drawn, and the rules that came along with them — they're the only two people in the world who even understands where the pretense begins and ends. they want things for themselves, because they're the same things they want for one another.
then i want you to work with me, to help you. we'll make a deal.
( what deal? she's working on it — it was comparatively easy to figure out a deal with hyunsu, who's easy enough to please with a little attention. eunhyuk? she'll have to think about it. what is it he really wants?
eunyu, she thinks, which is lucky, because it's all she has. )
i know. i'll be there. it's better than making him sit outside my door. which is what he was offering, like some dog.
