School time is a fun time, you can do anything. Going crazy with friends, changing partners, and lying to parents. Among all that, there is our dream.

But not all of them are fun. 

We will recognize pain, loneliness, and despair. Doing reckless things to satisfy curiosity. Do not want to think about how the future will end. What we have is our time now.

And love will always be among them.
First love, unrequited love, what else? 
But love is never stupid. 
We are the fools ...

2008

Today in the city of Seoul.

It's snowing.

"How did you meet your first love?"

The sound on the radio came faintly from her bed. 

She turned up the volume a little and took the necklace from the top of the radio.

"People say first love is like a coffee. It can be bitter and also sweet. So what was your first love like?"

She smiled staring at the necklace in her hand.

"It's bitter..so why you smile?"

The sound of the door sliding made her turn. Her mother said that it was time for an examination for her right hand.

She nodded and the nurse came to pick her up in a wheelchair. 

She stared bruised at the forehead and the corner of her lips at the reflection in the elevator door.

After an X-ray examination, the doctor explains all the possibilities that occur. 

"This broken bone makes your bone shape imperfect. This makes your bones limited movement when moving, stiff and pain .. " said the doctor.

"But take it easy, that doesn't mean you can't do anything. It's just that strenuous activities carried out by your hands will make your muscles ache. So it's better to avoid it .. " continued the doctor.

She paused for a moment.

"How about drawing? I plan to apply to college majoring in architecture.." she asked.

The doctor gave her a smile, "It's up to you, it's just that maybe your stiff hands will make it difficult for you. And... If your hand gets tired, it will cause pain. But you can still get a chance to back normal.."

She has given up on her love. Does she have to give up also for her dream?

Back in 2006.

Today in the city of Seoul.
