Shuhua's morning had started normally, Mayleen was babbling on the baby monitor and she knew that soon her daughter would cry, Shuhua ran into the kitchen and prepared her daughter's milk, Mayleen was a calm child except when she was hungry, she entered her daughter's room when she started crying, she took the toddler on her lap and sat in the armchair by the window, Mayleen silently drinked while Shuhua looked at the cars on the street, she didn´t know why but she felt that something was going to happen in that day

Shuhua didn’t used to take her daughter to the restaurant with her but Mrs. Yeh couldn’t stay with her as usual, so she packed her a lunch box and she supervised the lunch preparation with Mayleen in her arms, her employees kept talking about how beautiful the little girl was with her chef's outfit, including a hat like her mother's. Shuhua had just changed her daughter's diaper when she felt someone looking at her, she looked towards the restaurant door and was startled

It had been 06 years since Shuhua last laid eyes on Soojin. She thought she moved on by now, she shouldn’t feel like this over a simple glance across a crowded room, but after all this time Soojin could still make Shuhua feel like that

The two of them caught in each other’s eyes, everything around them fading into nothing, as if it was just the two of them alone in the universe.

Soojin looks as gorgeous as Shuhua remembered with the casual clothes she loved to wear and dark glasses so as not to attract attention but Shuhua would recognize her anywhere

Shuhua waved to her sister and handed Mayleen over to her, she then headed over to Soojin

-Soojin, what are you doing here?

-I wanted to talk to you, can we?

That voice, as she missed that voice, Shuhua sighed

-Come to my office

Soojin followed Shuhua to the back of the restaurant into a room, it wasn't very big but it looked comfortable and full of pictures of Shuhua and Mayleen

-Sit down

-Thanks, I loved the restaurant

-Soojin, you didn't come here to talk about my restaurant, what are you doing here in Taiwan?

- I needed to see you, I needed to talk to you

-Why now? 06 years have passed since we break up Soojin

-I know, and there's not a day that I don't regret the decision I made

Shuhua just looked at her, serious and quiet

-I’m so sorry. For everything, for leaving you, for pushing you away, you’re the best thing that ever happened to me Shu and I really regret hurting you that way, I was just so scared, afraid of the media finding out, afraid of losing my parents' love

-Do you have any idea how hard it is to forget you? After all that we lived together, this great love that we lived, did you know that for years I could smell your perfume in the air? That after we break up I never listened our songs again because I cried every time I heard your voice?! Do you know how pathetic I felt when I found out that you had married him? And you know what hurts Soojin the most? How much I was in love with you. How much I still love you

Both now cried as they looked at each other, Soojin was shocked by Shuhua's revelation

- You still love me?

-Pathetic isn't it? All these years and you still make my heart race

-It's not pathetic, not when I still love you too

-What about Hui? Does he know that his wife is in Taiwan with her ex girlfriend?

-Ex wife, I divorced him a year ago

-Why?

-Because I got tired of living a lie Shu, I got tired of lying to myself and mainly, I couldn't take it anymore to be away from you, I can't see myself with anyone but you

- What about your mother?

-My mom and I had an argument, she didn't take the situation well, but it doesn't matter anymore, if she doesn't want to be part of my life anymore it's her problem, I got tired of giving in to her wishes and surprisingly my father supported me

Soojin grabbed her hand in hers and held onto it tightly

- I know that a lot has happened and that we are not the same people as before but if you give me a chance I promise I will make you happy

-What if I told you that I have someone?

As soon as Shuhua said that Soojin remembered the toddler who was with her

-Well, if you are happy I will be happy for you Shu

Soojin still held Shuhua's hand, which caressed hers

-I had relationships but none lasted long they were incredible women and I tried to fall in love with them, feel something, anything, but I never did

- The attendant said you have a daughter

Shuhua opened a huge smile and took a picture of the girl who was at her desk

-I am a volunteer for many years in an orphanage, I fell in love with all the children there and decided that I would adopt a child, it took years but it was worth it, the first time I held Mayleen in my arms was the best feeling I ever had

-She's beautiful Shu

-She's beautiful, smart, she just turned 01

- I always knew that you would be a great mother, speaking of that how are Haku and Mata doing?

-They don't have all that energy from before but they play a lot with Mayleen

-I miss them

-And they missed you too, you need to see their hapiness when Yuqi and Soyeon come to visit

-Did you keep in touch with them?

-Of course, they are Mayleen's godmothers, there was an ugly discussion because of that and Miyeon and Minnie only settled down when I promised they would be the godmothers of the next one

- Do you intend to have more children?

-At least one more, Mayleen needs company and there are many children in need of homes

Shuhua replied as she smiled at her daughter´s picture

-How I missed it

-What?

-Your smile

Shuhua turned red

-Seriously Shu, I missed you a lot and if you allow me I would like to court you

-And how would you do that? You live in Seoul and I live in Taipei, I'm too old for long dist
