In which he has been in love with her for so long and she just fails to notice it.
"You have no idea... My heart has been yearning for you, waiting for you."

Hyemi is patiently waiting for Hongjoong to come back since he drives off to park his car. The sound of her sandal clashing against the marble floor of the mall's lobby gives off the feeling of excitement even though the gloomy sky says otherwise.
The boring shade of gray clouds spreads over the sky which may seem to reach the horizon, the mall is still effortlessly packed regardless. Because today is the first day of every weekend - Saturday.
"It's going to rain," Hyemi mumbles under her breath as her fingers run through her long hazel hair which is about to ride with a random gust of wind.
Her eyes squint while bringing up her other hand to her forehead like a salute gesture as she finally catches a glimpse of her red haired friend in the crowd.
"Joong, right here!" She calls out loud, waving to garner his attention. Seeing her, Hongjoong hurriedly strides up to the girl's spot.
. . .
The two friends are strolling around the stalls with variety of ingredients and tools displayed in the Baking Area which located at a humble corner of the mall.
Walking in the front, Hyemi holds a small jotter filled with notes in her grasp, gazing through every shelf they past carefully.
Hongjoong who is steadily pushing the trolley behind her, tries his best to fight the sleepy vibe as the soothing melody of 'Kiss the rain' from the mall's speaker that kicks in his brain.
I should have slept earlier last night. The specific thought pops up in his head as an unvoluntary yawn escapes his lips.
*°• ✧ *•°๑
Hongjoong's eyes wander around the lively moving surroundings before landing on Hyemi's figure. She just comes back to their spot in the queue and shoves a pack of lotus tea bags into their cart by his side.
The red haired boy asks as he points at the tea pack. "You drink it?"
"Nope, it's for you. For your sleep quality," The said girl states the blatant fact which she witnesses throughout the period of time they live together.
She concerns indeed. The lack of sleep happened because he has his work done at late night almost everyday or even at dawn sometimes. How comes she does not take care of him?
Like the way he always does for her.
She cares about me. The corner of his lips raises momentarily and his eyes turn into a couple of crescent moons which is barely seen underneath his sunglasses he's wearing.
He ruffles the shorter's hair, "You know what? Just say that you love me and I don't mind taking care of you at all." then plashes a smug grin at her face.
"Hah! In your dreams. Said the one who can't do it by himself." Hyemi spats the male's hand away, giving off a sarcastical glare. "I love me is more than enough."
