The silence wasn't awkward anymore. It was actually peaceful and easing. As she observed the beautiful scenery that was before her eyes, Miyoung wanted to capture the moment, to have a memory she could remember forever. So she took out her phone and started to take pictures of the shining forest, the glittering river, and the dreamy skyline.
Suho was watching her in silence. He could never get bored seeing her. He cherished her smile more than anything else in the world. He loved seeing the stars shining in her eyes. Suho loved Miyoung. That was why he was so bothered by the fact she was avoiding him. Suho saw the signals Miyoung sent him. He knew he had his chances with her. He wouldn't let that chance pass. He had waited for it for years. Suho loved Miyoung since middle-school. But she wasn't interested romantically in him. At the time, Miyoung liked Seojun. And Suho was well aware of that. It broke his heart but he never gave up on her. He wanted to wait for her to get over Seojun and maybe try to win her. But then everything went down. And she left. That was why he was so mad to see how Seojun was trying to take her away from him. He hated the fact that Seojun liked her too. He knew the Han boy did. Seojun told Suho himself. Suho was actually scared. Even though he had his chances with Miyoung, Seojun liked her too now. And Suho was scared that old feelings would resurface and that Miyoung would choose Seojun over him.
That was why he wanted to act. It was now or never.
Miyoung was about to change the camera for the selfie mode but then stopped. Suho was there and he hated pictures. She didn't want to make him uncomfortable. She actually felt like it was insensitive of her to take pictures while hated this. So she lowered her phone and was about to exit the app.
"Why did you stop?" Suho asked. Miyoung looked at him. She took a short time before answering.
"You are uncomfortable with pictures...," Miyoung carefully said.
"I don't mind," he just said. Miyoung stared a moment before softly smiling. She raised her phone in selfie mode. "Do you like taking photos?"
"I like it," Miyoung smiled. "There are so many memories I want to keep. Pictures help me recalling them. I like watching old pics and remembering the old days,"
"Do you like being on a boat?" he then asked.
"Yes, I do," Miyoung giggled.
"Then, do you like listening to music?" he asked again.
"Of course, I do," Miyoung then came to realize. He asked everything they did together. What would he ask now then?
"Would you like to take a photo with me?" Suho asked.
Miyoung just stared at him, stunned. Suho hated photos. Paparazzi had ruined his childhood just to have even the blurriest pic of his father. Yet he wanted to overcome this to take a photo with Miyoung. What did it mean?
