"She can never go, she's just testing my patience." Dongwoon thought as he put down the  bottle of beer he was drinking while looking out of the window. It was raining, just like the day when they both united and just like the day when she left. 

It has been almost a year since she left, leaving him in the storm, on his knees, imploring to her to never leave him but she still left, leaving him alone on the journey of life they had promised they would continue together. The jolts of lightning lighted up the dark night and he saw her, running away into the arms of someone else, he promised himself that time that if he found out who that person was he would confront him and ask him the truth one day. But he was transfixed with utter shock and could not remember anything other than the figure of her silhouette, caused by the lightning bolts that seemed to crack the sky just as her words had cracked his heart into so many pieces. 

FLASHBACK

"Hey, do you know what the weather is going to be like tomorrow?", she asked him when they were eating lunch at their favourite caf'e, the one near their college.
" I don't even know whaa I'm eatin' riee now, you expect me to know dee weder", his muffled sounds came as he was attempting to chow his sandwich and get more to eat as soon as he was done with it.

"I seriously couldn't have expected a better answer from you, you know. The pig loves to eat as much as he can and then whine about his stomach later" she retorted. Dongwoon looked up suddenly from his sandwich with a piece of lettuce hanging out of his mouth, he hardly gave attention to anything when he was eating so this was something of a big achievement somehow, to get Dongwoon to for once, look away from his food into her eyes which gleamed with curiosity at his unprecedented reaction. He was glaring at her now, trying to digest what she meant to say, and also what he had managed to hog down a while ago.
"What do you mean by that?" Dongwoon said keeping the sandwich down for a swig of coke instead. 

"You know, just talking about pigs and how they love their food so much that they can't look away from it". She replied with a slight smile that looked mischievious.

Everything was going well till that day and then the next day, the last shower of monsoon, she left, never to be seen again. Where to, he still wondered while looking out into the rain that reminded him of her, however imperfect she was, he loved her, a lot but even after a year he still wasn't ready to let her go. He still waited for her to call him during the night, singing lullabyes to him like a mother, giving her views like a critic on a movie she had recently seen and so on. He still waited for the day when she would come back and he could just embrace her and whisper in her ears, the words he had whispered many times before, "I love you."
