He began to bombard her with questions,"Why do you want to know so much about me? Why are you repeatedly asking about my likes and dislikes? Has someone sent you to spy on me or do you have some other motive?" , ....."what.. motive.... No.. why will I..??" She is stunned with his questions.
"Shut up, you are silently investigating me, right? That's why you was secretly taking a photo of me that day and just now when you were trying to get my phone number from Uncle Gu, I saw you from the window." He is totally frustrated and old memories of his past are roaming in his mind. He moves away from her, she takes a deep breath.., "Listen to me... Wait.. ".
Him, seems so much anxious, "No.. please..get out.. I don't want to listen.." She moves forward to him, "No, I am not going... I want to stay..." , she says, wanting to explain him.
His past is totally haunting him. Him suddenly being aggresive, "But why...? Why do you want to know where I come from? My age? My preferences? Why are you trying to find out so much about me?, What is your purpose in reaching to me??... Tell me.. what's your purpose?... Tell me.."
"Because I like you.." she says loudly with shining and passionate eyes..
He gets stunned with her sudden confession.. He feels like his mind is now clear.. Her confression is the only thing.. he is thinking about..
(In a nearby restaurant, a song is playing with a low sound.. which can easily be heard cause of silence..
It's name SOME-BOL4
🎶🎶
IN KOREAN (English translation)
Is it my fault if I'm not good at expressing?
I'm a warm girl in a cold city
Can't I just tell you I like you?
I just want to be honest....)
🎶🎶
He is looking so shocked...(Meanwhile her thinking, "omg.. what do I...did I confess just now? .... Yes... I finally did it.. ...Oh.. my .. why is he so shocked?... Is he thinking I am not suitable for him?") . Then, she fixes her hair a bit and sees in his eyes. He just staring at him ... Suddenly his past again controls his mind,
"you.. should not... Please stay away from me...Go from here.."
She determined to her feelings, says, "You can't push my feelings away like this... You don't know but it is my first time saying that kind of thing to a boy... We should know each other first... It's already evening.. lets go to spring festival tomorrow... There will be many street stalls. I will show you around.." he thinks that (I yelled at her so much but she still... )..
"Okay, lets go tomorrow as friends to spring festival..." She saying with shining eyes is so adorable that he just can't deny her, " Okay... But .. as friends only.." , she said in a joyful tone, "you've accepted my friendship just, now we're friends.."
"Wait.. when did I accept...?"he says in a low voice. She joyfully, "Just now... You can't back out now...okay ...we are now friends.. and we are going tomorrow to festival together.." , he just nodes his head to yes and she takes her bag as it is getting dark already...
"Meet you tomorrow, dear Jun..I mean..Dear friend. .. Bye bye".
Saying this, she leaves his shop ... With smiling face... Meanwhile him, he is still thinking about her confession.. . She in her way to home, ("will he go tomorrow or not? Or will he reject going with me again? By the way.. what happened to him? it seems he lives alone so he worries too much?.. if I were his place... I too look with suspicion at the person who is trying to reach me...it means he is a good person... Yes.. I believe my heart... My love would not be a bad person..")...
She reaches home, and call her bestie, Ji Su, "hello... Ji Su.. you know today....(Told her about her confession..) ..." .. Ji Su," what.. you.. who always said to me before that you don't know about love... Now, you already have confessed to a boy... And you are telling me now... Why didn't you tell me before? You don't think of me as your best friend?..." Ji Su is not stop questioning as she is feeling so betrayed and surprised... Hyu Ru cuts her talk, "I was going to tell you, but I too was not sure about my feelings... But today I know I like him from my true heart... I know you are my best friend ... You don't understand me then who will?....(Does some emotional attack ) ... I am tomorrow going to spring festival with him..." Suddenly Ji Su, her best friend mode activates, "What you are going with him.?.. every year you always use to go with me.... Huh.. leave all that... Since you are going.. do you need me to help you get ready??"... Hyu Ru, with joy, "I knew you can't stay angry with me .. for long time.. okay... I will come to your home tomorrow first, to get ready... Bye bye... Love you.. ummah.."..
She is so excited but she is still thinking if he deny to go tomorrow too....
(Next morning)
She goes to Ji Su, first and wear new dress which Ji Su designed, as she is a fashion designer... It is a simple black dress with knee length which bottom was skirt type..and new black boot... Ji Su had done her hair for one hour... Her hairs are more shining than before.. she is looking like a beauty in black... She haven't done much makeup as she believes in simplicity... She is already so beautiful... Ji Su gives her some tips.. and then she hugs Ji Su and leaves her house and walks forward to his shop...
