—--—--——--—--——--—--——--—--—--

The freezing snow had completely buried the city of Seoul under its cold and heavy wrath.

It was already December , people had opted to stay in their homes to spend time with their respective families and celebrate the holidays.

Gazing out the glass window of his room. Seokhoon observes the droplets of ice and listened in silence as his room echoed only with the sound of ice and water hitting the glass.

"You get cold so easily, telling me you were used to catching colds."

As winter approached for yet another year. Seokhoon couldn't help but think back to the few memories he had of the woman he hold so dear in his heart.

Taking out his phone, He gently scrolls through the gallery and smiles at a new picture Jenny had sent him.

Rona was smiling brightly as she posed for a picture in the beach.

She had matured a lot, it was 3 years after she went to the US and he had bid her a temporary goodbye.

Stroking his phone screen, Seokhoon thinks back to the times he had to wrap a blanket or coat around his tiny girlfriend. He remembers clearly how she hated being cold and would easily catch fevers.

"But I hope this Winter will be kind to you. You know, that's one of my wishes babe."

As he smiles and reminisces the bits of beautiful and happy memories he had of their young and sweet relationship.

Seokhoon couldn't help but wonder....

'How are you now? Are you still eating well? Are you still smiling like how you used to?.....'

Millions of thoughts and questions tend to fill his head, he missed her.... But he had made up his mind to let her go 3 years ago because he knew she had many other hopes and dreams to fulfill.

"Why do I miss you much more today? I hesitantly looked through memories of you and It's bearable, because in the pictures your face is smiling back at me."

Without him even realizing, A tear trickles down his face. Seokhoon turns and sits down on his humongous bed.

Taking the picture frame from his bedside, he smiles and adores the old picture of him and her.

It was one of those impromptu pictures, they wore their simple hoodies and youthful smiles. Hugging each other as they went for a late night date near the Han River one day.

Wiping the stray tear away from his face, he silently sniffles and sighs.

As he layed on his bed and stared at the window. His phone rings snapping him out of his deep thoughts.

It was a notification for a new Instagram post from Rona, attached was a new picture of her posing as she dined in a vintage café.

He swiftly pressed the heart as he comments a little smile and heart emoji.

'You look beautiful as always.....I guess things have been good for you in New York.'

Seokhoon could only voice these phrases in his head.

Throwing the phone elsewhere, he layed his head down on the pillow and shut his eyes.

"It looks like it could snow.... You can't be too late, So I don't accidentally miss you on the way."

It was like this each year, Seokhoon buried his head and thoughts on helping his mother on certain events and studied continuously to finish and graduate with flying colors.

He had tried and buried his head to the slight longing in his heart, each day reminding himself to endure and to work hard.... So that one day he could eventually face her with full confidence.

He remembers their last encounter vividly, it was in the hotel hallway where they had been staying.

She held her luggage behind and stopped as they stood there alone, hesistantly bidding each other a goodbye.

As she turned her back to walk towards the elevators, he held her wrist from behind and gazed at her hazel eyes for the first time since their seperation.

'If one day down the road..... Your willing to give us a chance again.... I hope you know I'm always here.'

Nodding and smiling at him, Rona gently grips his hands and turns away to enter the elevator.

And then she was gone.

Back to the present, A gentle 'ding' lights up on his abandoned phone just a few inches away from him.

Opening the sleek and black touch screen, his face changes from exhaustion to pure happiness.

The clear black and bold name filled his inbox.

BAE RONA

'I know it's night there..... But since you commented on my new post, I'm assuming you may still be awake. I heard of your successful performance from ajhumma.... I presume your doing great Seokhoon ah. I'm always rooting for you. Be happy always and stay safe. '

' xoxoxo, Rona'

Smiling at the numerous heart and smiley emojis she had sent, Seokhoon rolls onto his side and gazes at the picture of them.

'You too Rona yah, I'm always supporting you. Never stop smiling, you look beautiful whenever you smile.'

It was like a mantra almost every year, he would let his longing out in private and miraculously she'd message him at the right time, stitching back his longing and reminding himself to endure and be patient.

"Now all I do (all I do), All I do is wait."

And so each year passes, but instead of falling into sadness and hopelessness.

Seokhoon patiently continued his daily life and waited... Respecting and supporting her from across the world.

Because what else could he do?

Seokhoon could only wait, because that is true love and devotion.

Love is patience and devotion, it is wanting the other person to feel happiness with themselves first than to want them to stay by your side.
