Chapter 23
60 SecondsSuho
I walked inside Flowers Heaven. Then I stopped in front of the counter. I glanced there and found no one. My eyebrows joined together. I looked around the shop.
"Where is everyone?"
I walked around the shop. Then I stopped in front of a store. The store is closed. But, I can hear voices. Curiously, I opened the door and found Lay and Seohyun were tidying the store. They were shocked looking at me. I bowed to them.
"Oh, what are you doing here?" asked Lay while walking towards me.
I smiled. Then I looked at Seohyun. She was not looking at me. I took a deep breath.
"Are both of you busy?"
"We are almost done," answered Lay.
"Oh, I see. Er, Lay-ah, if you don't mind, may I take Seohyun-ssi for lunch?" I asked, looking at Seohyun. She was shocked looking at me. "Perhaps, if you don't mind too, Seohyun-ssi."
Lay looked at me, startling. Then he looked at Seohyun who was shocked. I waited patiently.
"Er, I... d-don't mind," he said. "Seohyun-ah, what about you?"
"Oh? W-what about..."
"Never mind. You don't have to worry. I will finish them for you."
"But, Lay-ah. I..."
Seohyun stopped her words as Lay shook. I looked at them with a hope. A big hope. I have to know everything. Seriously, without any doubt.

"Seohyun-ssi, who are you actually?"
Seohyun looked at me. From the beginning, she does not touch her food. So am I. I looked at her deeply. Her face showed me that she was so sad.
"You seemed to know me. And I was confused by that. Can you tell me what exactly happened? Who am I to you? Tell me the whole thing."
"Joonmyeon-ah," she called gently.
I frowned. She kept calling me as Joonmyeon. She was like used to me. But, not a single thing of my memory with her.
"Why did you call me like that?"
"Why? I'm used to call you like that."
"Okay," I said. "But, I prefer people to call me Suho," I paused.
She lowered her head. Does she want to continue like this? It was so hard. It was so hard for me, indeed.
"Okay, Suho-ssi," she said, lifting up her head. "What do you exactly want to know? I will try my best to let you know," she said, looking into my eyes.
I widened my eyes. I was shocked. She gave me her cooperation. And if this is going to continue, I will get back my memory, I guess. I was certain that she knew my past life.
"Everything, Seohyun-ssi. Everything."
"Okay," she agreed. I nodded. "And if I take your time, I'm sorry. Really sorry."
I was confused. What was that? I know that she knew deeply all about my past life, indeed.
