Our lips parted as we both panted, trying to catch a breath. My mind went wild. Once again, everything that happened between me and Lee Gak played in my mind. Slowly, tears ran down from my eyes again. Each minutes brought back all the memories. But Taeyong was in front of me. He held my hands near his chest. And I know, he would be here, beside me, anytime I need him.

"Please don't say to me that you like another man." He said. His voice shaken and I could hear pain in his voice. My cry got heavier as I tried to hold back the tears. With a slight choke, I tried to answer him.

"No.. I.. He is.." I managed to say. His hands held mine tighter. "He was you." I continued and took a deep breath to calm myself.

"Was? He was... Me?" Taeyong asked, confused. Well, I didn't blame him. Nobody would ever believe what I'm saying anyway.

Ever after that incident when he was gone back to Joseon, everybody had forget them. No one remember them. But all the good memories stay still in my mind.

I nodded as he suddenly hugged me.

"You give me a heart attack, you know? Stop crying already."

He didn't understand. He didn't know a thing! But his hug was different from Lee Gak's. And no matter how I tried to deny it, I like Taeyong's hug more. It calmed me down.
I nodded as I hug him back. We stayed like that for a good minutes until I pulled out from the hug, but he didn't let me, so I end up jumping on his chest.

"Park Ha..." He trailed.

"Hm?"

"Be my girlfriend."

My body stiffened. My heart beat faster. This was Taeyong, the sweet man in my life. He was not Lee Gak. And why I had to ALWAYS mention Lee Gak in my mind whenever he was around? I couldn't. I couldn't let him suffer by always compare his action to a man who doesn't even exist in this century.
But as hard as I want to say no, I found myself nodded and hugged him even tighter. Deep inside, I just heard myself saying

'I don't want to lose you again anymore.'
