May changing the subject and breaking up the weird silence
"Ohh my you'll be late, pushing David towards the door, thanks for the cake"
David stopping forcefully with his feet
"Would you stop pretending that it doesn't hurt?
I'm sick of seeing you like this
It's been 5 years just forget about him. If he wanted too he should've made a move...
Just forget about him!!!! DATE SOMEONE NEW" said David out of frustration
"I know!!! But i can't....i'm scared and ......also i don't know why" said May angerly
"Fine Date me!!!!
I'll do everything to make you forget him
Firstly you dated me because if him and now i genuinely want to date you" said David with a slight hesitation mixed up with frustration
He then left her place angerly

May who was standing their all stunned moved her room where that umbrella was

May to that umbrella
"What do i do Ryan?" said May ina teary voice
"I knew David had feelings for me from the start but I didn't acted that i do...And i used him for my own selfishness.."
"It's been 5 years since i laughed own my own but David always manages to make me laugh"
"And i even don't know anything about your existence where are you?"
"Please come back to me"
said May crying in that corner holding the umbrella tightly in her arms.

*The next day*

*A text from David*
"I'm sorry May for what i said but it's true i've liked you from the start. You can atleast give me a chance. Let's go on three dates. After that you'll decide if you want to be with me or not" said David

*Read*

"I want to meet you in person let's meet at 1 pm at my favourite cafe" May texted

*At the cafe*
"I'm ready"
"As you said we'll go on three dates then i'll decide" said May
"Fine as you say"
"So when will be our first date?" David asked
"Now" May replied
"Now?? But i'm not prepared" David said
"That's your problem, A man should be prepared always " May replied
"Okay then, let's go" said David taking May's hand and taking her towards his car

"Where we're heading??" May asked
"You'll know soon" said David

*At the movie theater*

"So? Our first date will be a movie date??" May asked
"Yes" David replied
"Fine intresting" said May
"I know you've always liked watching dramas and movies" said David looking at her eyes affectionately
"Let's go" said May

David buyed their tickets with some snacks and then both of them got seated on their seats.

Soon the movie started it was rom-com

A scene came where the female main lead suddenly met the male lead when she was running both got bumped into each other on a sunny day

Seeing which May got reminded of Ryan
The moment they first met

"Control May you're on a date you can't think about your first love now" May thought in her head

*After the movie*

"The movie was good isn't it?" David asked
"Yup it was good" said May
"Soo...................how was our first date?" David asked
"Kinda fine,, seeing the time you though of this idea" said May
"Hahahh i'm smart you know" said David
"Nope i don't" said May
"C'mon don't be serious all the time,, laugh like you used to do in high school" said David
"Okay bye i've work to do" said May calling Aria to pick her up
"I can drive you" said David
"Nope you'll have work to do,,just go i can manage " said May
"Okay then text me when you'll reach" said David
"Okay" May replied

*At May's home*

Writting her book 'Nae Sarang'
"The date went well,,but why do i feel something's off" said May to herself
Shaking her head
"Noooo!!!! I can't be selfish this time David has done so much for me i owe him alot. So i should!!!! No matter what i feel" said May confronting herself

The next day both of them went to a picnic the weather was quite nice. So they even hiked a bit. But soon May got tired
"I can't walk anymore" said May almost loosing her breath
David came closer and carried her on his back
"You've gained weight said David jokingly"
"Shut up" May shouted
"Well this isn't a date?? So what we're doing here" May asked
"Well i heard that writers need to explore places so that they can write with a fresh mind" David replied

May with a slight smile and affection
"Thankiew for always looking for me"
She then huged him tightly while being on his back

After some time

David with a smile
"We've reached"

May descented and she was stunned
They were on top of the mountain.
"It's soooo prettyyyyyyyy" said May joyfully

She then runned towards the barrier and took a deep breath

David followed her and said
"You liked it?"
"I loved ittttttt" said May giggling and joyfully
"I'm glad you like it
It feels good after seeing you happy again" said David looking into her eyes with the same affection like Ryan did
Both of them were alone there between those mountains seeing each other with affection. May didn't know but she was somehow impressed by his efforts.
