" This brings back memories " He uttered, his right hand holding hers, while his left one rested on her waist.
" Minho ? " She called his name surprised. Minho smiled, holding her hand gently" How have you been ? " He asked calmly
" F-Fine. I'm doing fine " She answered, looking away from his eyes.
" That's good to hear. It has been so long since I last saw you" He uttered
" You've been busy with work ? Even the university, I don't see you there "
He said, and she quietly listened to him while her eyes met everything else but his eyes." I don't need to attend anymore."
" Why ? "
" Things happened, that led to this " Hyorine sighed then added
" Plus, what would seeing me do ? What's the difference ? It's not like my presence is important or something "
She replied indifferently. Minho silently gazed at her which made her stressed." Right ... "
He said and held her, closely leaning in. He gently placed his arm behind her back as there faces approached. It's not like it's there first dance together. They once shared those steps happily while laughing to their heart content. However, times change, and people change with it. Minho gazed at her, as she did the same.
" You're right. What's the difference ? " He mumbled
" Don't you know what's the difference, Hyorine ? I thought I've already said it back- "
" Please don't. I've made myself clear "
She said firmly. Minho lifted his arm helping Hyorine to do a full 360 degree turn. Once she turned, he pulled her closer again.
" So ? I don't get it... Why do you always do that ? you always keep a distance... I hate it " He answered
" I've been silent for so long. I won't anymore " He added
" You shouldn't be greedy, Minho. We all... shouldn't be " She replied
" It's not about saying it or not... believe me, it's not. Do you think you have the choice in this chained world ? " She continued, while Minho listened to her words. Hyorine smiled
" We live in the same world, but we still very different. Some of us look up for the future they see as perfect, while others are still fighting the past shadows. You don't want to stay silent ? but that won't change a thing. Not every flower is meant to bloom, and some things are better left untold " She said, smiling painfully. Although it wasn't noticeable, Minho felt the sadness in her words. Memories flashed in her mind one by one, making her smile, yet her smiled faded the moment she remembered something.
