Chapter Eleven
Blooming Days of AutumnMaybe this is the start of something new for us.
For me and Hye. Over this heartful breakfast, we are innocently talking to each other. Slowly, I am getting to know her.
Slowly. I want myself to be with her. Slowly.
“Do you watch games?” She asked me. “Don’t tell you haven’t? Even you said that you don’t like it?”
I nearly laugh. “So, do you even remember that?”
She tapped my shoulder. “What do you think of me? A grandma? Of course, I remember.”
“I have not. Ever. My friend, Kang Minhyuk is the pro on watching those hoops thingy.”
She nodded. “Would you just invite your friend with you sometime? I think we can be friends.”
This lady is really playing tricks on me. “I remember you said that you are not sociable to others

“What the hell Minhyuk? Are you playing again?” That guy runs off to the bake shop. I sighed and just follow him inside.
The scene I witnessed is Hye is just staring at Minhyuk, looking blankly. Maybe she is pissed off. The bracelet is from her Mom and maybe she thinks I am playing with it. “Hye..” I whispered.
She looked at me. I grabbed the bracelet immediately. “Sorry, Minhyuk doesn’t mean to annoy you.”
“It’s not funny.” She said.
I glanced at Minhyuk. I know that he can read my eyes – he is dead later.
