They walked down the coastline side by side while witnessing the beautiful scenery of sunset. Jihoon glanced at Yubin beside him.

*Yubin, why are you making me this crazy? I just can't stop thinking about you lately* he thought. *I love you, Yubin. But did you feel the same towards me too?*

His hand accidentally brushed against the back of her hand. The two were surprised but pretended nothing happened. Jihoon bit his lips and purposely knocked her hand again.

*What is he doing?* Yubin pretended nothing had happened. *Yubin* Jihoon slowly entwined their hand. Yubin looked at him but he looked at the sea. Slowly, he looked at her in her eyes. He smiled without a word. Yubin gazed down to their entwined hand and slowly looked at him in the eye. To his surprise, she replied his smile. They walked hand in hand.

*I guess I really did fall for him!*

Jihoon and Yubin settled down on the sandy beach facing the sunset and the red coloured sea. He placed his hand aside as he let out a sigh.

"I wish I can sail on a boat one day" he voiced. "Sail?" "Yes. Don't you want to?" "Well that sounds fun. Maybe we can do that together sometimes" she glanced at him. "As for me, I wish I can drive a train" As he heard it, Jihoon broke into laughter.

"Don't laugh at me like that" she punched on his shoulder lightly. "I know that sounds weird. But that's what I dream of"

"Okay okay. That's a unique dream" he chuckled. "I dreamt about it when I ride the train for the first time here"

Yubin played with the sand in front of her. "I wonder" she caught his attention. "Do you remember when we went to the beach with our family? I wonder how you can know about my blue bandana"

"You bring that bandana everywhere you go. Naturally people will notice it" "No I'm not. I only keep it in my locker if I ever bring it to school" her toe played with sand. *Wait* Yubin froze and her eyes that was watching the movement of her feet traced to his bare feet. A scar was seen on his ankle.

"Jihoon, you" Yubin was about to ask but Jihoon already spoke. "I don't know if you remember this but I fell into your room one night. And you helped me" he confessed. "I had a big wound across my ankle and you tied your blue bandana there. I'm in debt with you for your help that night"

As Jihoon unveiled the truth, Yubin remembered the incident where an unknown person fell into her room one night and she helped the person. Then the person left her clueless.

"So it was you. But why? I mean. How can you run on rooftop of houses in the middle of night?" "I know this is weird and I don't know if you still want to talk to me after you know about this" "It's okay. Just tell me" Jihoon heaved a sigh before continued. "I'm not a good person. I skip school, steal and I don't know what else had I done" he paused. "I pity my parents for having a brat like me. They helped me out from the prison for numerous times and I still yell at them. Now I realized I had done wrong"

"Prison?!" she faced him in shock. "Yes. Sounds ridiculous but it's real. I was a member of a street gang. So we usually steal and trash people. I helped them to collect their borrowed money. In the hard way but as the junior member, they didn't allow me to kill" "You wouldn't kill right?" "I will not. But then I requested to leave the gang but they didn't allow me. They threaten to hurt me if I ever leave the gang but I ignored them. I just left them but on that night they managed to find me. So I ran away" he explained.

"They wouldn't hurt you, will they?" she was concerned. "I don't know. I hope not. If they ever find me, I know how to protect myself, Yubin" he smiled.

She stared at the sea in silent. "So that was your past that I learnt today. I wish to learn more about you, day by day" "Me too" he gave her a smile.
