ChaeWon held YoungDo's hand, looked into his eyes and said, "I want to hear about everything. I want to know more about you. I won't judge, I promise. So, you don't have to hide anything from me."

YoungDo looked up and said, "There isn't any interesting story in my twisted life. Really nothing to tell."

ChaeWon sighed and said, "How can I get to know you if you don't tell me about yourself? Don't you want to know more about me? I'm not telling if you don't tell me about yours."

YoungDo was not ready to talk about his past and his parents yet. Yet, he was sure that some day he would tell ChaeWon everything, but not now.

YoungDo never replied and ChaeWon didn't push it further. She knew YoungDo would tell her when he was ready.

Before that time came, she realized that she should apologize to YoungDo.

She took a deep breath and said, "Choi Young Do, I'm sorry. I'm really sorry that I said I don't want to have anything to do with you. You know I don't mean it, right?"

YoungDo patted on her head and said, "I know. I am the one who should apologize. Not you. I screwed things up. It was never your fault."

ChaeWon shook her head, "It wasn't your fault either. I knew it but I panicked. All I could think of was to run away from you. I thought that was the only solution to our problems."

YoungDo smiled and said, "But it wasn't."

ChaeWon nodded.

YoungDo helped ChaeWon to button up her jacket since the wind was getting stronger.
