Kris and Jungah entered the clearing in the forest. A smooth dirt path between the tall, colorful trees led them down into a world without troubles, fear, or anxiety. Peace seemed to envelop them into an unrealistic world. Time ceased to exist. Other people and other problems drifted out of their minds.

In this magnificent forest, it was just the two of them.

Jungah walked down the path as she admired the trees. The nature was serene and quiet. It gave her an opportunity to rest her thoughts and relax without the anxious thoughts of Zico and her impending future.

She didn’t know what she would do after high school next. She couldn’t rely on Zico forever.

If it was up to her, she would start working now.

But Zico would be mad at her, and she didn’t want to do anything to upset him.

Kris vigilantly watched Jungah’s every move. Everything she did made his heart skip a beat. She looked like a fallen angel with her long, dark hair, and pale, milky skin. There was no annoyance on her face, and for once, she wasn’t scowling. He admired her from afar. *She’s the most beautiful girl I have ever met.*

“So,” He attempted to make easy conversation, “What did you learn in school? Is there something I missed?”

“Pardon me, but you’ve obviously mistaken me as someone that gives a about school. Since when do you see me paying attention?” Jungah snorted.

*Good point.* Kris thought.

Jungah stopped and stared at the cherry blossom over her. She reached out and touched the petal very softly. Her eyes grew warm and bright. She had never seen such a beautiful thing up close. Kris glanced down and saw that she was balancing on her tippy-toes. He easily reached up and lowered the branch to her height. Jungah stood back flat on her feet and looked up at him. She raised an eyebrow accusingly, “Are you showing off that you’re taller than me?*

Kris rolled his eyes. *Do something nice for this girl, and she thinks you’re showing off.* He shook his head, “Can’t you just appreciate my kindness?”

“Kindness, my .” Jungah scoffed. Yet, she took a closer peek at the blossom.

“Did you notice that I was gone for the rest of the week?” Kris asked.

*Yes.* “Hell no. I was too busy with school stuff.” Jungah snapped.

His eyebrow rose up, “I thought you said you don’t pay attention in school.”

*Busted!* She thought. “Then I was too busy with my, er, damn ipod.” Her cheeks flamed up, and she hoped he wouldn’t notice.

However, Kris had keen eyes, and he could see through her. *I think you’re getting attached to me as well.* The thought pleased him. Kris plucked the blossom off the tree.

“Hey-“ Jungah protested, but stopped when he slipped the flower into her hair. She stared up at him in wonder.

“The flower compliments you well.” Kris lightly smirked.

Jungah stared at him. *Zico said a similar thing…except it was the opposite.* “You compliment the flower well.”

Jungah quickly looked away and reached up to take the flower out of her hair.

Kris quickly caught her hand. She gave him a curious look. He gazed at her with softness. “Just keep it on. It looks…nice.”

“The flower or me?” Jung
