　　Are you really not going to meet me before leaving?

　　
　　“Mingyu.” I kept shaking his body so he could wake up, “Mingyu, Tzuyu kept calling you.”
　　After hearing her name, he finally woke up; opening his eyes widely. “Really?”
　　I nodded, “And she texted, saying that are you really not going to meet her before leaving?”
　　
　　Just how close is their relationship? Is it okay if I feel jealous towards her? Because she seemed to

be by his side while we were separated? No, I shouldn’t. I also had Wonwoo by my side back then, I

shouldn’t be selfish.
　　
　　Seemed like he lost focus, and kept looking at my neck. He finally touched it; he finally touched my scar.
　　
　　“What’s this? It wasn’t there back then?” he asked.
　　“Ugly, isn’t it? I got into a car accident few years ago and it gave me this ugly scars.”
　　
　　***
　　

　　Four years ago.
　　

　　Today is my first day in the new school, and I tried to be friendly to them because I don’t want to

repeat my dark past and also get rid of my trauma. And why didn’t I do this earlier? Being friendly is

fun and stress-less, like I already got so many friends here? Wow, I really did a good job.
　　
　　But I still couldn’t forget the pain on my heart, when Mingyu left me without words. I knew that it’s

because our parents, but still, I really wanted to meet him once before he left. Just as simply as that.
　　
　　In my old school before I dated Wonwoo and met Mingyu, I was always being alone and even ate my

lunch alone. Honestly, being alone is not the problem; being lonely is.
　　
　　Now I have friends who would eat lunch with me and talked about anything. I really missed the

conversation with Wonwoo when I was still afraid of people around me, and also my conversation with

Mingyu about... Everything. I really missed Mingyu...
　　
　　He didn’t contact me and he shut down all of his social media, now I really have zero chance to contact

him first. Seems like he also blocked my email?
　　
　　I stopped crying because I thought that it wouldn’t help me at all, but sometimes when I really couldn’t

hold it anymore I just let the tears fell. Sometime it’s relaxing, but also painful.
　　
　　“But it’s raining and you don’t bring any umbrella?”
　　“It’s okay, the bus station is near anyway. I will just run there.” I said, to my friend.
　　
　　Rain is really pouring heavily today and I stupidly left the umbrella at home. It’s okay though since I really

love rain and its after effect. The way rain remembered me about Mingyu and all about him, really made me

love how the rain pours so much.
　　
　　Even though my heart’s back in pain whenever I thought about Mingyu, whenever he appeared on my

head, this heart seemed to be in a total pain. But what could I do? Nothing. Mingyu’s not coming back to me.
　　
　　Still looking at the rain to the point that I forgot about the rain that soaking me with my uniform on. I could

felt that my eyes started to be glassy, like it would burst the tears anytime.
　　
　　It stopped raining on my head but still pouring heavily in another area. Someone’s giving me umbrella and

when I looked up to the person,
　　
　　“Wonwoo?”
　　
　　He didn’t smile but our eyes were glued to each other.
　　
　　“What are you doing here, in Anyang?”
　　
　　And still, he didn’t say anything. He’s still in his uniform and now soaked because he just gave his umbrella to

me. As I remembered, just a moment ago, it was me who almost teared up but suddenly Wonwoo came in this

situation and he cried?
　　
　　I’m not sure if it’s the rain or his tears, but it’s really hard for me to look at him in this state. Just what

happened with him?
　　
　　Wonwoo hugged me under the rain and I could feel his body shaking from crying. “Ahri...”
　　“What happened, Wonwoo?”
　　“My family is in a mess, Ahri.”
　　
　　I brought him to my Grandmother’s house - the place where I live now - and let Wonwoo changed his

clothets with what my brother had left here. It reminded me to the past where Wonwoo were soaked in rain

and he changed to my brother’s clothes.
　　
　　When he was waiting for me just to get me back, and we were really in love in each other back then.
　　
　　“My Dad cheated on my Mom,” he said after drinking the tea that I made for him; then continued, “he

even has a son from his marriage. And sadly, my Mom knows nothing.”
　　I moved closer to pat his back, “What are you going to do now?”
　　“I don’t know. I don’t want Mom to be hurt, but I also don’t want my Dad to be forever lying at Mom.

And that little kid... He’s my brother after all.”
　　
　　My Grandmother told Wonwoo to just sleepover and come back to Seoul tomorrow. So we spent the

whole night by talking with each other, and I listened to the whole thing that happened in his family.
　　
　　How could this happened to Wonwoo? I just don’t understand how could all the heart breaking things

always happened to him?
　　
　　“I’m afraid that this would hurt my Mom, but that little kid doesn’t have Mom anymore. His Mom passed

away while giving birth to him - and before she and my Dad could explain everything to my Mom. All that

little kid got is just my Dad, but my Mom would be extremely surprised to hear that, right?”
　　
　　“I know, you wanted to protect your Mom but also don’t want to abandon your little brother.”
　　“Because that little kid has no sin, Ahri. He did nothing wrong to what happened to my family right now.

Nobody could blame him. That’s my Dad’s and his Mom’s fault.”
　　“I think you should tell your Mom slowly but sure. I mean, your Dad couldn’t hide him forever, right? That

kid needs his birth certificate, and he’s just few months old.”
　　“And he still have his Dad, he shouldn’t be placed in an orphanage. He should’ve live with us.” he sighed

deeply, “But, will my Mom even accepted him? Or forgive my Dad?”
　　“She will for sure. You got that kind heart genes from her.”
　　
　　Both of us couldn’t sleep that night so we decided to walk around the city to buys some snacks. Even though

we had to walk a little far to reach the mini market near the bus station.
　　
　　I’m glad that I found Wonwoo, and sometimes I really wanted to work things out again with him but I always

thought about Mingyu in the end and it really confused me. But I was really in love with Wonwoo that I thought

maybe I could feel that old feeling again if I tried?
　　
　　“Wonwoo, I left my wallet at the cashier.”
　　He also stopped with me, “Do you want me to get it?”
　　“No, I will just run there.”
　　
　　I didn’t do anything wrong, the light was red so it’s time for me to cross the road. But there was a drunk

driver who kept driving with its highest speed. I always got annoyed whenever I watched a drama; when the

actress was about to getting hit by a car but she just stood still on the read and screamed?
　　
　　And that happened to me, the light of the car really blinded me and my body felt like paralyzing so suddenly.

And for a moment, I thought that I’m going to die.
　　
　　But someone pulled me into a hug, trying to save me from the car. Seems like the other car tried to avoid

the drunk driver and hit Wonwoo and I instead. Luckily the car stopped before everything got even worse. Still,

Wonwoo’s face was the last thing I could remember at that time.
　　
　　On the next day, I’m already in the hospital with my Mom, Dad, and my Brother in the room. “Where’s

Wonwoo?” was the first thing I asked.
　　“He just went downstair to get a snack.”
　　“Is he okay?”
　　My Mom nodded, “He saved your from the worst, Ahri. You just passed out because you were really shocked

and got a wound on your neck, it might leave scars. Are you okay with it?”
　　“I’m okay, I was trying to recall the accident, and if Wonwoo didn’t pulled me, I would’ve been in something

worse that got a wound on my neck.”
　　
　　Wonwoo arrived in few minutes with a bread in his hand, as he smiled so wide when he saw me. He quickly

hugged me, and I’m sure that he’s crying on my back now. “Thank you for being safe, Ahri.”
　　“I will be nowhere without you, Wonwoo. Thank you so much.”
　　
　　He always came to visit me whenever he had a time - or I should say that he visited me almost everyday?

He really didn’t mind traveling back and fourth between Seoul and Anyang even after finishing his school. My

Dad always told him to just sleep in the hospital but he said that he had school in the next day.
　　
　　I know that he has a lot of problems right now to solve, but I couldn’t believe that I just added more problem

to his life? And he spent his little time to visit me?
　　
　　“Is your ankle getting better?”
　　“Yes, that’s nothing though. I was a taekwondo athlete before and I’ve been in ankle injury before.” said

Wonwoo, as we walked to the rooftop of the hospital. He knew that ankle injury is not a joke, but he kept

visiting me even in his busy days. We are in our final grade anyway, and we are in a different city.
　　“You really did much for me Wonwoo, I felt like I’m really a burden to you.”
　　“Don’t say that, Ahri. I care about you, and this is the only thing I could do for you.”
　　
　　We stopped and he seated on the bench, “You know, honestly, sometimes I feel like I had to work things

out with you to payback everything that I did to you back then.”
　　“Then what about doing it for real? Work things out? That sounds great. Fix your heart, and make you

smile again; that’s what I wanted to do for all this time. But I always scared of being rejected?” he laughed,

“Let’s repeat, be my girlfriend again?”
　　I nodded, “Let’s repeat.”
