Countdown -- epilogue: 0.5

Jul 11, 2011 22:56

Measure it out in inches (0.5); Jinki/Minho; PG-13
note: Short. The end of chapter twelve is the real conclusion. This is just...kind of a post-finale wrap-up? (You know, after a show, you have the clear the stage and stuff...) It ties back to Jinki's self-intro in chapter two and the life-changing(?) movie in chapter six. ;)

Epilogue -- Zero point five

In this world, there are many ordinary people who sometimes wander out of their boxes and become a little bit extraordinary.

Case in point: me.

My real name was Lee Jinki.
My pet name was Tofu.
My alias was Lighter.

The cigarette lighting kind, mind you, not the barbeque ones.

In terms of appearances, I was about average. In terms of build, I was a little bit skinny. In terms of height, I was tall enough.

I was almost twenty-five.
And I shall forever be almost twenty-five.

I went through life being single.
Relationship experience? Zero......point five.

Once upon a time, I was loved by a very bizarre person named Choi Minho who somehow figured out my name even though I'd never told him. But we weren't lovers by any means. We didn't even get the chance to go on a single proper date.

When it was my turn to leave the world, I left with a smile on my face.

Minho was there.

And I was content.

Happy, even.
Quite happy.

Countdown ---- FIN

......

____a/n: and this concludes «Countdown». I know I was all "life is uglier than fiction", but let's just say jinki isn't a fully reliable narrator, he skipped a lot of stuff, and...well, stuff. hope it turned out okay. anyway, thank you for reading!

and idk if I should say this, but go read « Anosmia».
if you liked this universe.

f: shinee, p: jinki/minho, c: jinki, c: minho
