Reactive Love

Neomu Bogeosibeo

While they two struggled to walked back to Vijalmi's house in the cold, the snow had fallen excessively. The trail was now concealed with white snow that their legs were swallowed with it at the waist length.

Ji Hyo who was exhausted of walking spoke with a low tone. "Kwang Soo... Just go. Leave me here.. I don't think I could make it back." She fell on her knees,on the snow. It was though for her especially when she gone through with the terrible cramps earlier.

"I will never leave you, noona. Never once more in my life." He let out a promise while giving a piggyback ride to Ji Hyo with his remaining energy. Once more, she knew that Kwang Soo was no longer a younger brother, but a rightful man to her.

Her eyelid were too tired to opened any longer. "Thank you... My Kwang Soo." That was the last sentence she spoke before she lose conscious.

"Noona??? Seong-Im??!!" He called her name, but she failed to respond. She need some warmth for now to gain conscious. He moved a little faster back to Vijalmi's house.

By the time they both arrived safely, Vijalmi was serving dinner at that hour. Seeing them both who almost froze to death, Vijalmi immediately lighten up the fire, putting more woods in to to keep the house warmer.

He take two clean towels for them both and drape one of it on Kwang Soo's shoulder. "This should keep you a little warm."

Kwang Soo took the other towel and wrapped it on Ji Hyo's. "Thank you, Vi. We couldn't have done without you." He spoke out with a cup of warm water in his grip.

"Should I take you both to the hospital?? You both do look pale.."

Kwang Soo shook his head and forced himself to released a small smile. "It's alright.. We just need some warmth thats all."

"How is she doing?" Vijalmi asked while watched Ji Hyo who was laid beautifully on the couch. She hasn't gone conscious yet for now.

"Weak... She fell into the lake just now. She should be fine by tomorrow."

Vijalmi's sight was on Kwang Soo's now. Raised his eyebrow as he asked. "Lake?? The one I told you both to stay away from it?"

Kwang Soo nodded lightly. "She dropped her stuff and landed it on the ice lake. She had no choice but to walk through it. I'm sorry, Vi. I should have taken care of her."

"Don't be guilty with it. I'm sure it's so important for her that she need to get it back. Come into the dining room for dinner once you are feeling much better." He patted slightly on Kwang Soo before leaving them both.

"Alright then.." He paused a little while and called for Vijalmi once."Vi???"

He stopped. Turned his head and looked at the young man. "Yes, Kwang Soo??"

"When I tried to save her from drowning, I remember everything. My memories....They were back."

Vijalmi was happy with the news that he kneeled down and embraced Kwang Soo. "It's good to hear that from you.. Although you struggled to save her from the lake but it's worth after all. Perhaps I should try that when you lose your memories back then." Vijalmi joked out as he chuckled.

"I wouldn't have survive without your help, Vi. And next time, don't try to throw me into the lake.. I could have drown in there, Vi."

There were a few cough from Ji Hyo. The two men heard it and kneeled ahead of the couch. "Ji Hyo?? Are you awake??" Vi asked.

"Noona....How are you doing?"

Her eyelid were opened slowly, seeing two men who stood near her. She backup a little and sniffed her nose. "I smell food. Is the dinner ready??" Her mong expression was shown that caused the men to chuckle even more. Being relief that she's doing fine.
