Wendy Stories

Rose: WenSoo (2)

After Kyungsoo finishes writing his song "Rose" with Wendy in mind, he picks up a bouquet of roses from the flower shop. Next, he calls Wendy and asks if he can meet her.  

"I'm free right now, so we can meet up," Wendy tells him.

"Great! I'll go to your place." He hangs up on her and dashes for her house. Knocking on the door, Wendy opens it and is ambushed by the bouquet. 

"What's this for?" she questions.

Kyungsoo grins. "You'll see. Can I borrow your guitar?"

Wendy gasps, setting the bouquet on the table in the living room. "Did you finish a song?"

Kyungsoo nods his head. Wendy runs to her room to grab her guitar. He begins the song by strumming the guitar. Then, he sings:

"You're like a spring day—pretty."

"Thinking about what I can do to make you come to me."

"Even though I look shy and cheesy, I can't help it."

"You're the one that I think of when I wake up."

"Even though I see you every day, you're still pretty."

"Be my love, baby."

"I go to a local florist. No matter how hard I think about which flower I want to give to you, the only flower I know is a rose. With courage, carrying an arm full of flowers, I'm coming to you."

"You are prettier than a rose, actually. I can't really express my feelings in words."

"From today, we are lovers."

Wendy places her hands over her mouth in shock. "Kyungsoo, this song is beautiful. Did you write it about me?"

"Yeah, you're my muse."

Tears stream down her face. "I can't believe you confessed to me through a song! That's definitely your love language." After Kyungsoo wipes her tears away, Wendy gazes at him seriously as he awaits her answer. She sings back, "I will be your love, baby. From today, we are lovers." Kyungsoo brings her closer to him and hugs her while she strokes his back. 

Releasing herself from his embrace, she inquires, "What's this song called?"

"Rose."

"That's a pretty flower."

"You're a pretty flower." 

Wendy smiles at the ground. "You think I'm pretty, Kyungsoo? Pretty as a spring day? Prettier than a rose, even?"

"You're so unbelievably pretty, Wendy."

She covers her face, flustered. "From now on, you have to serenade me with every song you finish, okay? And when I'm sad, you have to sing me 'Rose.'"

Kyungsoo chuckles. "As you wish."

"You have to perform this song again for me. I need to get a recording!" 

Kyungsoo obeys her order and re-sings "Rose." 

Wendy bites her lip, seeing the video saved on her phone. "It's in my gallery permanently now." 

"Do you have any more requests?"

"Do you mind singing 'You're the one that I think of when I wake up ' so that I can set it as my alarm?"

He furrows his eyebrows in confusion but also amusement. "Sure." He sings that line as Wendy records it. 

"Anything else?"

"I want to set 'Even though I see you every day, you're still pretty ' as my ringtone."

He chortles, hiding his face behinds his hands. "Okay, Wendy." Wendy records him singing another one of her favorite lines. 

"Is there any other line you want me to sing?"

"No, but I have a final wish. Instead, can you teach me the chords, Kyungsoo?"

"Of course!"

She positions the guitar on herself and holds it in place. Kyungsoo guides her strumming while humming. The two sing the song together, an unexpected duet. After singing the last line,"From today, we are lovers," they share a kiss.
