[It's a relief to know Ryan's okay with that. He's not unaware they've always been closer than most friends, but it's always been easy to pretend that's because of how long they've known each other. How many other best friends have known each other their entire lives? Of course they're comfortable around each other.
Now it feels different. Like they've both been making excuses to pretend they don't feel the way they do while still always being around each other.]
It's hard to talk about. I've spent so long hiding the way I feel it's strange to actually say it.
[The way he feels about men. About Ryan. How bad he feels every time his parents try to talk to him about girls.
Especially to someone who doesn't understand it. Ryan's sympathetic, but he doesn't get it. He can't.

He turns to look at him again.]
What if I show you?
[This might be the one time Ryan can ever really experience his feelings the way Min does. There's nothing left to hide now, so why not?]
