Dandelion

Description

The floral meaning of the dandelion is that it is a gift to a loved one that will provide happiness and is a promise of total faithfulness. (Source: http://en.canadianflowerdelivery.com/flower-meaning/dandelion.aspx)

Foreword

I am the sun in sky of green
I am the golden summer queen.
I’m the friend to every child
Because I’m strong and bright and wild!

Grown-ups cut me when they mow—
forget they loved me long ago.
But when I’m gone, then don’t you sorrow.
I’ll be back again tomorrow!

- Quote from The Winds that Come From Far Away, by Else Holmelund Minarik

This is a poem about the Dandelion flower.

Chapter 1: Ooh~ How beautiful! I love it! The way you write about Gary makes me think: "Amazing! It's like she knows him". ^^ <3

Chapter 1: AK, you did it again :) Another beautiful short story - great writing. I don't have to know the history behind these actors, just by reading your story, I get the feel of the characters. When I saw the title, my immediate thoughts were delicate and medicinal...but 'love' and 'faithfulness' were indeed new insights...thanks! You must really love flowers?

Chapter 1: What a beautiful scene! I love how ethereal it was -- both the content and style was so light and kind of evoked this heavenly feel. And it seemed that these two existed in their own world, almost, as if this moment captured between them was only for them to understand, with the rest of the world kind of running around them. Does that make sense? Like, you seem to leave their names out perhaps to further this distance between "them" (Gary and Ji Hyo) and the "others" (rest of RM), which then unites KG and SJH in the scene as a pairing that connects on many levels. Maybe I'm just rambling here... I haven't had a cigarette all day (I know, I know... bad for me hehehe)... but I really enjoyed this and would definitely love to see if not an update of this then perhaps another one-shot :)

Chapter 1: A nice story. Loved the inclusion of a perceptive HaHa. I think it is very him. I oft times find he is a perceptive fellow and more sensitive to the feelings of the members.

I like how jihyo and Gary just sat there and each knew instinctively how the other felt. And how Gary is dealing with his real gf being jealous of the rapport and connection he has with jihyo sounds like a very real problem he could face.

I like the bit with the dandelion. Brought back a sense of nostalgia. We used to do the same by the Hangang. The memory invoked by your story gave me warm fuzzies tinged and very slightly coloured with melancholy.

I had written a similar scene in one of my stories but did not use it. Now it'd feel like a copy cat. Lol

Chapter 1: Short and sweet story. Can be interpreted in a few ways. :) You should consider compiling all your one shots. It will be a good collection. :)
