C.S | my Favourite Flower

-

Y/N had always loved the peaceful serenity of Namhae. The sound of waves crashing against the rocks, the gentle sea breeze, and the lush green landscapes provided a perfect escape from her bustling life in Seoul. It was during one of these tranquil moments that she noticed a commotion near the water. Without hesitation, she rushed over to find a young man struggling against the tide. Summoning all her courage and strength, Y/N dove in and managed to pull him to safety.

The young man, Choi San, coughed and sputtered, his eyes wide with a mix of fear and relief. "Thank you," he gasped, his voice weak but sincere. "You saved my life."

Y/N smiled, brushing a wet strand of hair from her face. "Anyone would have done the same. Just glad I was here."

San's eyes locked onto hers, a connection sparking between them even in that chaotic moment. "I'm San, by the way. Choi San."

"Nice to meet you, San. I'm Y/N. Let's get you to a doctor."

As they made their way to a nearby clinic, San couldn't help but feel an overwhelming sense of gratitude and curiosity about this brave woman who had saved him. However, their time together was fleeting. Y/N had to return to Seoul, and San remained in Namhae to recover. They parted ways, but not before exchanging a promise to keep in touch.

Back in Seoul, Y/N resumed her busy life, working at her family's flower shop and managing her personal affairs. Meanwhile, San found himself constantly thinking about Y/N. Her bravery, her kindness, and the fleeting but intense connection they had shared haunted his thoughts. He only knew her name and the fact that she lived in Seoul, but he was determined to find her.

San scoured social media, searching for any trace of Y/N. Weeks turned into months, and just as he was about to lose hope, he stumbled upon an Instagram account that seemed to match her description. He hesitated for a moment, his heart pounding with anticipation, and then sent her a message.

"Hi Y/N, this is San from Namhae. I don't know if you remember me, but I've been looking for you ever since that day. I wanted to thank you again for saving my life."

To his delight, Y/N responded quickly. "Of course I remember you, San! I'm so glad you found me. How have you been?"

Their conversation flowed naturally, and soon they were exchanging messages daily. They talked about everything – their lives, dreams, and fears. Despite the physical distance, they grew closer, building a strong bond through their digital screens.

As weeks turned into months, San and Y/N's online friendship blossomed. They shared their favorite books, movies, and songs, finding comfort and joy in their virtual companionship. San, now fully recovered, found himself looking forward to Y/N's messages more than anything else. He cherished every moment they spent talking, even if it was just through a screen.

However, a shadow hung over San's heart. He knew he had developed feelings for Y/N, feelings that went beyond friendship. But he also knew that Y/N was in a relationship. Respecting her boundaries, San kept his emotions in check, content to remain her friend.

One evening, as they chatted about their favorite flowers, Y/N mentioned that her family's flower shop was looking for someone to join their team. "It's been hard to find the right person," she sighed. "Someone who loves flowers as much as we do."

San's heart skipped a beat. Ever since he was a child, he had dreamed of becoming a florist. The idea of working at Y/N's flower shop and being closer to her was tempting, but he hesitated. "I've always loved flowers," he admitted. "It sounds like a dream job."
