WORDLESS AFFECTION [NAMHOPE]

PART-1

In broad daylight, the sunflower fields of Gwangju look so elegant that nobody would want to take off their eyes, even for a second.

Facing the sun, the flowers show their pride and happiness, not caring the reason of their pride will disappear as the sun sets, because they are waiting for another new day. Their hopes never go down.

These flowers were the only reason of someone's smile who was presented at the fields, caressing the petals gently with his hands as well as talking, obviously to the sunflowers.

POV-

Aren't you guys so gentle and warm? Don't worry! I want pluck you out, cause I know, you also feel hurt. *smiles*

This place makes me so happy and free from all my worries that I wanna stay here for the rest of my life but I can't, hahaha!

END OF POV

"Hoseok!" A lady in her 60's called out who was the owner of those fields.

HS: "Hello, Mrs.Shin!" *Says politely and bows down*

Mrs.Shin: "Son, you often come here but never take any flower with you. I have already told you that you are allowed to pluck one or two."

HS: *smiles* "Thanks but I'm fine with just touching them."

Mrs.Shin: "So soft boy! Wish if everyone were like you." *Caresses his cheek*

Hoseok feels some vibration in his pocket. Checking, he finds his phone ringing. It was his dad's call.

HS: *receive* "Hello, Dad!......... Yes! I'm on the way............okay dad!" *Cuts* "Mrs Shin, I'll take my leave now."

Mrs.Shin: "Okay! Go home safe!"

>>>><<<<

The boy reaches home but doesn't smile at all, as if his smile doesn't belong to that place. He closes the door after entering, only to get scolded by his mother.

HS/M: "Didn't we tell you to come soon as it's urgent? Just where were you?" *Cold eyes*

HS: *lowers head* "At the sunflower fields."

HS/M: "Why do you always go there? What makes you so attached to that place that you even forget about the time?"

HS: "I'm sorry!"

HS/M: "I'm so tired of you, really -"

"Why are you scolding him, Mrs.Jung?"  *Someone comes from the living room*

HS/M: "Mrs.Kim?"

Mrs.Kim: "Please don't scold him."

HS/M: "He came late so I was just -"

Mrs.Kim: "It's totally fine." *Turns to Hoseok* "Hey, Hoseok baby! You've grown so much. Do you remember me?"

HS: *tilts his head* "Ahm... sorry Aunty! I don't know!"

Mrs.Kim: *hits her forehead lightly* "Shit! How could you when you were such a baby at that time. You were so adorable that I couldn't help holding you and even fed you my milk." The atmosphere turned silent. "Hahaha! It was a past thing. Why am I bringing this up? Stupid me! Anyways, Son, give your auntie a hug." *Spreads her arms*

Hoseok goes towards her as the lady holds him tightly.

Mrs.Kim: "Aigoo! You've gotten even cuter."
