Promises are meant to be broken. This is a story about Song Mirae, a third year high school student who's trying to move on from her first love. Along the way, she finds herself falling in love with a man with few words, Choi Seunghyun, although the...
I certainly do not like him around me. The stare he gives whenever he looks at me is so annoying. Can't he just stop it already? I quickly took the book and brought it to the cashier. Apparently, it's the only book left since school is going to open tomorrow and Ahjusshi won't restock it any time soon.
Well, I don't care, I saw it first. He's just going to deal with Mrs Jung's nag. I paid for the book and did not even look behind because I wanted to run away from him but as I crossed the pedestrian walk, I heard him calling my name a couple of times. I slowly turned around and saw him holding my red wallet.
Aish, why did I left that damn wallet?
He was walking on the road to get to where I was as I stood there, waiting for him. I just cluck my tongue out of annoyance. All of a sudden, a loud horn filled the peaceful neighborhood and when I looked up, Seunghyun was lying on the floor, grunting in pain. I panicked as they surrounded him. I whipped my phone out from my pocket and my hands were shaking as I dialed 119.

Upon arriving at the Busan National University Hospital, I realized that I have not inform JiNa about him and so I did. She came twenty minutes later with her mother and they bombarded me with a lot of questions.
"It was a hit and run case, the driver immediately left after hitting Seunghyun and I didn't manage to see the vehicle number. They suspected that he fractured his ribs," We waited for him outside the emergency room and after two hours, he was moved to a normal ward.
"Eomma, Seunghyun's mother insisted that he is to be treated in the grade A room until he fully recovers and they're going to arrive Busan tomorrow early in the morning," JiNa informed her mother and she only nodded.

"May I know who's the guardian of Choi Seunghyun?" The doctor appeared from the room he was in and we stood up to listen to his diagnosis.
"He fractured his rib on the left side and that is due to a direct blow to his chest, and a moderate concussion. He's quite lucky because if the impact is slightly stronger, the concussion might have been worst and he can fall into a coma. His friend did a really good job to take immediate actions," The doctor smiled at me.
We were allowed to enter his room one at a time and when the both of them came out, JiNa insisted for me to take a look at Seunghyun before leaving.
I closed the door behind me and stood awkwardly beside his bed. He's still infused with anesthetic so he won't hear what I'm gonna say anyway.
"Seunghyun-sshi, thanks for returning my wallet to me but you could have just leave it, you know.. I feel really bad seeing you in this condition when we just met for the first time today," I feel like I am talking to myself
"But anyway, I'm sorry. I don't even know why I am apologizing but yeah, get well soon. I'm going to take a leave but I promise that I'll come back to visit you soon," I looked at him one last time before closing the door.
