Chapter 1
Lost Love
“I’m sorry. I know it was selfish and wrong of me to use your feelings to get what I wanted. I am really sorry. Its not you. Please. You’ve been more than perfect to me. But I just don’t feel the same way. The only reason I said yes was because of Soojung. She wasn’t giving me the time of day..so I thought…”
“I understand. Don’t worry about it. You and Krystal make a beautiful couple.”
“Areum, I’m sorry…”
“There is nothing to be sorry about Jongin,” she smiled. “Hey, can I get one last request though?”
“What is it?”
“We’ve never been on a date. For the 6 months we’ve been together we never been on even a single date. I know it’s silly of me and it’s a ridiculous request…..but I was just wondering. For old time sake? One date? Please? I promise just one day. One day and I’ll leave you two alone. I promise, just one day.”
Kai looked at the girl. The girl that have been more than perfect. More than he can ever want a girlfriend to be, Areum. The girl he hurt. The girl he used because he loved her best friend when he knew she loved him. The face that always had a smile on and eyes that sparkled like stars. The eyes now that are clouded by tears she’s so bravely holding in requesting this one thing from him.
“Ok. How does Saturday sound?”
“Perfect,” Areum said with a smile. My first and last date with you. My first love.
Saturday
Areum put on her outfit for the day. A shirt and shorts on. Her phone beeped notifying a text has arrived.
-I’m outside-
Areum smiled. You can do it Park Areum. One day. Make this day count because this will be your first and last time with him.
“Fighting!”
Walking outside she never thought she has ever seen a man so perfect before. He was just wearing normal black jeans and a shirt but he looked so perfect. How can someone look so perfect? She asked herself. Because he is love. And love will always be him. Her love. She walks to him as he opens the car door for her.
Kai smiled. “Hey did you think a boyfriend will not open the car door for his girlfriend?” This is the least I can do for you Areum. Give you the best first and last date as a couple.
Areum smiled. “Why thank you Mr. Boyfriend.” Kai chuckled and closed the door and headed to the driver’s side of his car.
“So where to?”
“The amusement park! I always wanted to have those cliché movie moments”
“Your wish is my command” Kai smiled. Areum smiled and looked at him as he drove. That’s right Park Areum. Be selfish. Just one day. One day. That’s all I ask for. They soon arrived at the amusement park. Kai parked his car and opened the door for Areum.
“So where to first?”
“RIDES!!”
Kai chuckled “Ok”. They went to almost all the rides at the park and now they headed to the carnival that was filled with games.
“Do you want that bear?” Kai asked as he see Areum lose for the 5th time in the water gun game.
“Yes but I keep losing. Agh why do I ?!” Kai laughed. “I’ll win it for you”
“What?”
“Well isn’t that what boyfriends do? Win prizes at carnival games for their girlfriend. Even though that bear looks bigger than you” he teased.
“Hahahaha young man I hope you win for your girlfriend then.” The game owner chuckled. “Or she’s going to give you hell for teasing her like that and coming back empty handed.”
“I’ll try my best. But I’m sure that even if I lose she won’t stay mad me at me for too long.” Kai looked at her and smiled. Areum blushed.
“Good luck then. OK PLAYERS GET READY! AIM FOR THE TARGET AND IF YOU ARE THE FASTEST TO GET THE ALARM TO RING THEN YOU GET TO CHOOSE ANY PRIZE. GET READY SET GO!”
“GO JONGIN GO GO GO!!!” Areum cheered.
“DING DING DING DING!!” “WE HAVE A WINNER!!”
“Ah I was hoping it was you young man. Now go get your girlfriend that bear. I can see that she’s already more than happy”
“THANK YOU!!!!” Areum yelled as Kai handed her the bear.
“No problem. Now where to next?”
“FOOD!” Kai chuckled. “Ok”
As the day started getting later more people started to crowd into the carnival. All of a sudden Areum yelped when she felt someone grab her hand.
“Its just me. I just didn’t want you to get lost in the crowd. Plus its only normal that we should hold hands. What kind of couple don’t?”
“Jongin….” Whispered Areum, she smiled. Just for today she reminded herself.
Kai soon released her hand when he saw Areum run to different stalls and food carts to try out food. Kai never s
