He walked to the places where they would usually meet and hang out, reminiscing their moments together that are all now just memories. He passed by an arcade, remembering the time he took her there.

Their classes just ended, Gyeoul went to the music room as she saw Beomgyu waiting for her, playing songs on his guitar as he sang. A smile crept on her face as she went inside, closing the door and placed her bag in the corner of the room, beside his. "What took you so long?" He asked as the girl sat beside him. "Yeoreum-ie was convincing me to ditch practice and hang-out with her." She said, chuckling as she shook her head. "That would be fun but we need to practice." He said as he chuckled. "Yeah, the festival's a month away and we're also the one's who are gonna open the festival so we really have no choice." She said as she saw him nodding. "Speaking of that, I think we should start practicing."

Then they started recording their voices. He played the song's intro as she hummed along and sang. The boy's eyes were darted onto her as she sang, admiring her voice. They finished the song as Gyeoul stopped the recording and played it, both checking if they made mistakes and looking for some parts to change. After recording and singing over and over again for an hour, the two's practice was finally over.

"I think we should hang-out somewhere else aside from the music room and the café." Gyeoul said as they got their things and went outside the room. "I think I know where we should go." Beomgyu said, a smirk plastered on his face as he walked, Gyeoul following him. "Where are we going?" She asked.
"You'll see."

After the 3 minute walk they finally arrived to the place.

It was the arcade.

As they went inside, a smile crept on his face as he saw the girl's face lit up, eyeing the black odd-eyed cat plushie inside the claw machine. "I'm going get that plushie, for Yeongwon!" Gyeoul said excitedly, making the boy giggle as they went to the claw machines.
"Aish, I think this thing is rigged. I can't get mini Yeongwon." She said, pouting as he giggled. "It's not. This is where the plushies I give to Huening are mostly from."
"Then teach me your ways." Gyeoul jokingly said as she crossed her arms.
"Alright, watch and learn." Beomgyu said as he inserted a coin and the game started. The girl giggled on how focused he was as his eyes were darted onto the beagle plushie. The claw got the plushie as he pressed the button, slowly going up, carrying the plushie. "And that is how you get a plushie." He said as he got the beagle plushie from the machine. "It's your turn." He said as the girl started playing.

After trying a few times, Gyeoul finally got the plushie she wanted-with a little help from Beomgyu. "Finally! Look how cute it is, it looks just like my Yeongwon-ie!" The girl said, showing the plushie to him with a smile.

That was what he was after, her smile.

A smile crept on his face after recalling the memory. He noticed that everything he saw reminded him of her, making him chuckle.

You really won't leave my mind.

He passed by a store, a familiar song playing inside.

It was the song she sang when he first saw her.

"Best part." He said, a small smile on his face, humming along the song he heard as he walked.

I wish I could sing it with you again.

The boy thought as he crossed the street, heading to an ice cream parlor, which was by the café. He ordered two ice creams by accident when he got in, one strawberry flavored ice cream, and one bubblegum. He went outside and looked for a seat, mentally cursing at himself for only noticing he ordered two when he got out. He finally found an empty seat and sat down.
