you could imagine how
boring their meeting was.

your typical love story
unfolds at an old bookstore
in the countryside.

yerim was a visitor.
ni-ki was a local.

a few hidden glances
turned into lingering gazes.
his orbs are breathtaking.

some shy smiles
became lovely laughter.
her giggles just make his
heart clench.

the accidental encounter
soon became intentional,
they have spared
their days roaming
around the small town
alone together.

but sadly,
a once high-pitched "hi",
has to end with
a disappointed "goodbye".

ni-ki knew it was time
to go.
but no, he could not let
her go just yet.

a dial on the number was
the answer- the only one.
swift seconds morphed into
yearnful years.
