Jung Su walked into the café. It is already autumn in Seoul now. He is wearing a white shirt, black skinny jeans, a black leather coat and a pair of white sneakers. The waiters in the café greeted him while he smiled back at them. He walked to the second floor and entered the office.

Five years ago, after his resignation, he came back to Seoul to look for So Ra. But she is gone. He didn’t know where she went. The mansion is empty. The chauffeur and the maids went to separate ways. He asked for Hee Chul and Young Woon’s help to search for So Ra but they could only track her to Hong Kong and then nothing. He lost her, completely.

However, he didn’t return to the States. He opened a café in Cheondamdong with the name ‘Angel’. She is his angel. But he lost his angel. For five years, he travelled back and forth between Hong Kong and Seoul just so he could find her, maybe he would meet her on the street someday. Hye Sung, Hee Chul, Han Geng and Young Woon would visit him in the café from time to time or ask him out for a lunch or dinner. But no one ever mentioned So Ra’s name in front of him because they knew how important she is to him.

Jung Su touched the necklace he is wearing. The pendant is the engagement ring So Ra put on his finger five years ago. He never throws it away. He wore it on his neck so the ring is close to his heart. His phone rang, stopping him from reminiscing the time he spent with So Ra five years ago.

“Park Jung Su,” He didn’t look at the caller’s name or number but just answered the call.

“So Ra is back in Seoul,” Young Woon said.

“When?” Jung Su stood up from the chair.

“She was seen at the airport yesterday night,” Young Woon replied. “But I don’t know where she stays at.”

“Call me once you have her address,” Jung Su couldn’t hide his excitement. Five years. Finally, she is back in Seoul. So Ra, his angel, this time he wouldn’t let her go anymore.

So Ra stretched her body as she sat up from the white sofa. She wore the knitted cardigan on the tea table and left the apartment. Five years ago, she came to Taiwan with Hyo Lyn’s help. She didn’t continue her study but created her own fashion brand with the money her father left for her in her personal bank account. That was the last thing she received from her father.

So Ra named her fashion brand ‘Reveramess’. It is welcomed by the young women in their twenties. Reveramess has an outlet in Taiwan and Seoul. However, she never takes part in the sales in Seoul. Hyo Lyn is the one in charge of Seoul’s business. No one knows So Ra is the designer of Reveramess, except her employees. They understood that she didn’t want to become famous and so they helped her to keep her identity as a secret.

“I’m getting married next month, you must come back,” Hyo Lyn told So Ra when they were on the phone.

“Chukahae,” So Ra congratulated Hyo Lyn. If that incident didn’t happen five years ago, she would be married already. A bitter smile appeared on So Ra’s face. Why is she thinking about that again? It’s over.

“Did you hear what I said?” Hyo Lyn asked her. “You must come back.”

“Araso, I’ll go back,” So Ra replied.

“You made your promise,” Hyo Lyn told her. “I have to go first. Take care of yourself.”

“I will,” So Ra chuckled and ended the call.

Five years. She hadn’t gone back to Seoul for five years. She is afraid. That city reminded her of that man, the man she is deeply in love with but in the end it turned out to be her one-sided love. So Ra shook her head so that she would stop thinking about the past. She should think about what present to prepare for Hyo Lyn. After a while, she took out her drawing tool and started sketching. This will be her present for Hyo Lyn’s wedding.

***********************************************************************************************

Jung Su looked at the address Young Woon sent to his phone. It isn’t an apartment or house’s address but a clothing shop located at Myeongdong. The name of the fashion shop is Reveramess. He knew that Young Woon couldn’t have made a mistake and so he decided to walk into the shop. When he is inside the shop, a familiar voice attracted his attention. In the corner, a familiar figure is talking on the phone while looking at the clothes being hanged there. She is wearing all black. She is slimmer compared to five years ago. Her hair is also longer. Jung Su slowly approached her without her acknowledgement.

“Yes, I’m at Reveramess now,” So Ra spoke to Hyo Lyn on the phone. She didn’t realise that she is being approached by the man she loved five years ago. “Are you coming? Or shall we just meet during lunch time?”

“So Ra,” Jung Su called her. He didn’t know why his voice is trembling. All he knew is that he finally found her. After five years of waiting, she is now standing in front of him.

So Ra didn’t expect that she would meet Jung Su under such circumstances. She isn’t ready to face him, even after all these years. She didn’t turn around to face him. She ended her call with Hyo Lyn and took a deep breath. When Jung Su almost placed his hand on her shoulder, she ducked away and ran out the shop.

Jung Su never expects that one day he would have to chase So Ra like he used to chase the criminals. He responded immediately when So Ra ran out the shop. He was able to grab her arm when ran passed a bookstore. He pulled her so that she would fall into his hug. They have to talk. But So Ra pushed him, trying her best to free her arm from Jung Su’s grab. She forgot that he was a FBI agent. She couldn’t defeat his strength.

“So Ra, let’s have a talk,” Jung Su said.

“I have nothing to say to you,” So Ra stared at him with anger. Talk? What does he want to talk about? All she wanted to do is to leave this place immediately.

“But I have things to tell you,” Jung Su didn’t realise his strength increased while grabbing So Ra’s arm.

“Let go of me! You’re hurting me!” So Ra yelled at him.

“I’m sorry,” Jung Su minimised his strength but still didn’t let go of So Ra. He waited for five years to see her again so he is not letting her go anymore, not anymore. “I just want to talk to you.”

“And I say this one last time! I have nothing to say to you,” So Ra repeated her sentence once again.

Jung Su’s car was parked not far away from where they are at. With his hand still grabbing So Ra’s arm, he dragged her to his car. So Ra used her free hand to hit him and ask him to let go of her but he ignored them all. So Ra was mad.

“Why?” So Ra’s question made Jung Su came to a stop and turned around to look at her. He saw her eyes turned watery. Tears are forming in her eyes. This made his heart broke. “Why must you force me to do things I didn’t want to? Five years ago, you walked into my heart without my permission. And now you want to talk to me when I didn’t want to. Park Jung Su, is this all that you can do?”

“So Ra,” Jung Su used his hand to wipe away the tears on her face. He waited for five years to meet her again but what had he done? He made her cried again. “I never want to force you to do things you didn’t want to. I just want to talk to you like we used to do five years ago.”

“Whatever happened between us five years ago ended. From the day you appeared at my father’s funeral as a police, our story ended,” So Ra said calmly. “Park Jung Su, five years ago, I loved you. But today, not anymore. This is the end between us. Let go of me and also free yourself. I don’t need your pity. I can do well without you. I don’t love you anymore. That’s it.”
