Criminal Love ✦ Yang Jungwon

Chapter 7: First Snow

It was Sunday morning. It was the beginning of the winter season. It was cold and freezing. But somehow everyone was excited for this, especially when it was Christmas.

As usual, Hana woke up at 7 a.m. and took the shower to clean herself. She needs to prepare the breakfast because she will only eat alone while her brother and her parents are gone to work. After showering, she went downstairs to prepare breakfast. She was wearing a black sweatshirt with black dress pants.

"Another day of coldness. When is this season going to end? It's getting colder." Hana will never love December because it will be the winter season. It's not like she hates Christmas; it's just that she hates the cold and freezing during these months.

After she had done with her breakfast, she went to her room to study before getting ready.

It's 9.10 in the morning. Hana was sitting at the last row of the bus while reading her book. Her brother told her that she is supposed to call him if she wants to go anywhere. But obviously she won't listen. She don't want to disturb her brother while he's at work. She can take care of herself. Things that happened in the past was not his fault at all.

Finally the bus stopped at the next station. Hana got out of the bus and started to walk to the cafe. This cafe is a place where she used to hang out with Jungwon and Yunji when they were middle schooler. Is also a place where they used to study together. The last time they went here together was two weeks ago before the accident happen. After that, she never went here again since she wanted to avoid Jungwon or any memories from the past.

But now she is here to meet her childhood friend, Jungwon while another one is missing.

❁❁❁

Hana enter the cafe. The bell on the door is ringing make her feel slightly annoyed by the sound. It's way too loud.

It's been so long" She look around the cafe. This place hasn't changed that much and it's still look so cozy. The silent and the coffee sent is perfect. If you are an introvert, This kind of place is a perfect place to hang out.

After searching for awhile. She saw Jungwon who was sitting at the corner of the cafe. He's really good at choosing a spot to study.

Hana took a glance at him. Admiring him from afar. The best part is that he was wearing sunglasses today. After awhile, she walk towards him. When she arrived, Jungwon looked up to her and a smile started forming on his lips alongside with his dimple on both side of his cheeks. He's so cute and handsome at the same time. Indeed, he is the most good looking person. Hana sat across him.

"Hey, Jungwon. Sorry for keeping you waiting" Hana apologised.

Jungwon close his book and shook his head.
"No, it's fine. It's not a big deal. I can wait forever for you"

Hana was taken aback by his words. Perhaps speechless. She just nodded her head in response.

It's been 2 hours they stayed in the same place and same spot. They get along pretty well without any awkwardness. They studied, sometimes they laughed and sometimes they talked or debate about some random topic. Everything went well without any circumstances.

Jungwon glance at his phone and noticed they have been study for 2 hours straight. He turn his glance at Han.
 "Maybe we should take a break for awhile" He removed his sunglasses and set them aside on the table. 

Hana looks at her watch. "Yeah, we should"
She started to tidy up the table which was full of paperwork. Jungwon helped her. After they finished tidying up the table, Hana checked her phone to see if anyone has sent her a text. While she was busy on her phone, Jungwon just stared at her silently. He stared and admire her beauty. Her eyes, lips, cheeks, nose and her hair. Everything about her is amazing and beautiful.

Jungwon took out his phone and lower the volume. He secretly snapped a picture of her. He knew she wouldn't notice it as she was busy on her phone. 
"She's so beautiful" Jungwon whispered under his breath.

He missed her a lot. Her voice, her smile, her touch, her presence. Everything. Through out the 4 years of distance was a torture to him. If he had a chance to see her, he would've ran to her. Somehow the situations wouldn't let him. Her parents started to advice him not to get close to her. They wouldn't let him visit Hana. It felt like she had done something worse. After all, she didn't do anything wrong, and she was innocent.

He have been to the therapy back and forth the same goes to the police station. He just wanted to see her. To make sure she was fine. 
Suddenly, his phone started ringing. He looked at the contact number to reveal that his mother was calling him.

"You should answer that" Hana told him peeking at the person who is calling him.

"1 minute" Jungwon stand up and excuse himself and went outside to answer the call.

Hana watched him from the inside. It's been awhile since she last meet Jungwon's mother. Every time she went to his house, his mother would always welcome her with opened arms. She's truly the sweetest person ever. Hana always loved Jungwon's mother company.

She glance at her phone and look outside. When will first snow fall? People believes those who experiences first snow will fall in love with each other or they tend to confess their feeling towards someone, eventually the relationship will last forever.

After awhile, Jungwon enter the cafe back. He sat back across Hana. He look at her.

"Sorry for leaving"

Hana shook her head. "No, it's fine"

He sigh "My mother called me. Asking about my whereabouts" He slowly explained.

Hana nodded her head "Didn't you tell her where you were going?"

"I just told her I'm going somewhere.... I din't explain where I'm going or who I'm meeting with"
He stared into Hana's eyes.

Hana blinked her eyes. Why is he staring at me like that? she talked to herself. Why would Jungwon not tell his mother about him meeting her. Hana glanced at outside of the window. A snow fall.

"Eh? It's snow"
Jungwon looks outside.

Snow start falling and everyone was surprised to see it. Some has already run a circle around it. Everyone was thrilled to see first snow falling in Seoul.

"Have you noticed? Every time we meet in December there would be first snow fall; even our first meeting is also a first snow falling" Jungwon stated while looking outside with a smile on his face.

Hana look at him before focusing back outside. There was a bunch of children running and playing to celebrate the first snow. It reminds her of when she was a kid, she used to play with Jungwon and Yunji under the snow fall. No matter how much she hated winter, she would never hate it as long she got to spend time with her love one. 

She nodded "Yeah..... I do realise. It felt like fate was playing with us now" She say but almost sound like a whispered.
