In the kitchen..

“It’s her.. the same smile.. the eyes..” whispered Hoya in his heart. “What are you doing?” asked Sungyeol. “Owh, nothing..” “There are things that worry you?” Sungyeol try to guess. “Nope”. Hoya took his warm milk and went to the balcony to take some fresh air. Sungyeol tipped his shoulder.  Hoya still can’t forget that smile. It’s the same! He still can’t forget that things. Things that always makes him felt guilty.

“Eo.. Howon-shi, come in. Minjeong-ah, Howon’s here.” Mrs. Lee called Minjeong. “Ye.. Omma..” replied Minjeong. Minjeong came down from stairs and enter the kitchen. “Omma, where are the pastries that I made?” asked Minjeong. “Look over there. On the table”. Minjeong came out with a full plate of pastries that she made. “Howon-ah.. Try this” Minjeong give the pastry that she made to Howon. “You made this?” “Why? Don’t you believe it? Ask my mum if you don’t.” Howon ate and his face suddenly wrinkled. “Waeyo? Taste different?” Minjeong start to fell not good. “No,it’s really delicious.. Wah.. How you make it?” comment Howon. “Ah.. you make me surprised! Well I just follow the recipe from my father. Delicious?” Howon just nodded. Then, Minjeong took out crystal ball. “Howon-ah, take a look at this. Pretty right?” asked Minjeong. “Wah! Yeppuda.. Where did you get this?” Howon asked curiously. “My father got it for my birthday. I love it so much!” Minjeong saw Howon choked. As fast as she could, she ran to the kitchen and took some water. When she came back, she saw that her lovely crystal ball had burst. She quickly passed the glass to Howon. “Minjeong-ah.. Jeongmal mianneyo..” Howon trying to persuade her. Minjeong just ran upstairs. “Minjeong-ah.. Minjeong-ah” Howon called her. But she didn’t listen. Since that day, Minjeong didn’t reply his message. Howon had to transfer to another school but he even can’t reached Minjeong.
