Summary
My name is Byun Euijoo, everyone usually calls me Juju, it’s a nickname Nicholas gave me—
He feels his chest tightening again and he pushes his chair back. When the space is enough for him to stand up, he stands, stretching his arms over his head and trying to understand why a nickname that Nicholas made for him should be included in a speech at his wedding.
Euijoo tears the page out, crumples it in his fist and throws it inside the bin. It joins the rest of its friends—mostly empty papers with good evening everyone in Mandarin written on it—inside the metal bin beside his desk, a growing graveyard of half-truths and incriminating sentences. Phrases that should never be spoken out loud.-
nicholas is getting married, he wants euijoo to give a speech.

Summary
It was especially difficult to get out of bed today. The cold, and the memories. I guess I can be sentimental, too, and say that I miss the excuse of your dead weight on top of me when I wanted to sleep in, when the sun was already high in its arc in the sky, when my sister would bang on my locked door to tell us that breakfast was ready. That was the year our dads were away and you stayed over almost every night. A lot of things changed that year. To borrow your phrasing: surely you remember that too.
It's the late 1950s. Euijoo and Yixiang find each other in stolen moments, and then in letters.

Summary
Nicholas forces himself to look down at his lap. Vertigo hits him quick and hard. His hands are—not his hands. They’re thin, tapered, a couple shades darker. He blinks a few times. His brain tells them to move and then they do. No delay. He looks at them, clenching and relaxing: bone, muscle, sinew, tendon, skin. All under his control.
These are Euijoo’s hands. They shake a little. He has to swallow a scream.
On the first day of summer, Nicholas wakes up inside Euijoo's body.
