“I learned today that when someone likes someone, it looks beautiful.”​

giphy-20

Reading taboo romances is an exhilarating and also formidable challenge. For innately, you know it's innately wrong - a forbidden thirst. But if the author's powerful storytelling convinces you otherwise​ - proving how right it is for these two broken, beating hearts to belong together - then that ​is certainly an admirable feat.​ 🥺

And this is not me justifying or even attempting to excuse it. But it leaves such a strange, surreal feeling of understanding that it compels you to believe what they share together is so very real, so very true, and meant to be.​ 😢 Circumstances certainly play a part, perhaps even slightly manipulating emotions​ - painful and agonizing. But how deeply repentant 22yo Joonwon was for craving his 18yo brother Joonyoung for so many years, even to the point of self-harm to prevent those lustful thoughts, definitely played a part.​ 💔

​​“Then my heart drops, and I lose my words.”
“Hyung…”
“I can’t help but love you.​”


Or it could be Joonyoung's own jealousy at the mere thought that his beloved brother could be spending time with someone else - ​his anger at not being able to understand why he felt so strongly against it - till​ he yields to Joonwon's forcefully filthy, unspeakable actions. It is, but with the promise that for a month if he could experience this Madly, Beautiful longing he has for him - then maybe it would be enough to ​heal his fractured mental state as a victim and an accomplice. 😟

The translation was well done: smooth, heart-wrenching, and visceral. 🤌🏻​ Joonyoung's palpable frustration, his agitation, his vexation at seeing Joonwon's self-imposed injuries,​ ​the dark regret and fear of doing something forbidden, the terrifying realization of its irreversibility, but not bearing to see him hurt anymore - because of ​his unattainable longing for him. That even under the pretense of study sessions for college preparations, the moment when it is no longer unrequited love is visible and tangible.​ ❤️‍🩹

​​“The permission to live was in that breath.
It was okay to live. It was okay to love.​”


From chasing after him for his attention and adoration after their mother's death when they were both very young, to now wanting to touch and crave him with a heady, intoxicated, indecent desire​ far beyond the norm of brotherly affection. 🥹​ It was an inevitable trajectory that heightened and deepened when he realized why he felt such resentment towards two of his fellow classmates ​- Juho and Kyungmin (P.S - author-nim, any chance for their full-length story?) - in a relationship; was how he longed to share that same connection with someone he loved, who just happened to be his brother. 😞

And how the author tackled those emotions - Joonwon's heartbreaking distress and pain for hurting him further for his ​abnormal... dark and depraved sinful thoughts​ - it was a choice that only with Joonyoung's acceptance and forgiveness could they find an attainable happines​s. 🤍 'Every one of these is proof you love me.' A love stronger because it was blood - two hearts estranged, only to be reunited when want of kinship outweighs all else.​ 🌅
