final.

Sitting on a window seat was a girl, with long brown hair, fair skin and beautiful face. Holding a mug of hot chocolate in her hands, she looked outside of the glass window. Her eyes kept moving, looking for a trace of something or particularly someone.

She sighed as she failed to find what she has been looking for. She stared down at her hot chocolate before glancing once again outside the window. It was snowing, a white christmas. She observed the view outside, some couples walking on the sidewalk, a family laughing happily, a girl skipping through the street with a box in her hand, kids playing snow fight and so on.

The girl smiled at the sight, but then looked down again at the mug in her hands.

Everyone seems happy, well they should be happy. But,

Why can't I?

****

When it snows outside on this winter night,

I'm looking for a trace of you,

I'll never forget the time that we met,

The winter when we fell in love

Winter 2011

The cafe was as usual crowded, a lot of people kept coming inside. It was also quite noisy as laughters and voices of people talking could be heard from every corner of the room. Just like everyone else, 2 persons, sitting on the window seats, were enjoying their time together. The girl couldn't stop laughing from the boy's joke.

"Yah, stop it! I could die from laughing", said the girl while wiping a tear that escaped her eye. The boy sipped his hot latte and nodded. They continued talking about random things, enjoying their drinks or more like enjoying each other's presence.

Both of them decided to go out of the cafe as they finished their drinks. They walked through the streets, side by side. No one talked though, but it felt comfortable. Without them realising, they've reached a playground.

The girl quickly ran to the swing and sat on it. The older guy chuckled at the other's childish behaviour, but then made his way to push the swing where the girl was sitting at.

Silence took over once again. The girl was enjoying herself while the boy was thinking about something deeply.

"Soojung-ah", the boy called. She hummed in response, waiting for the boy to continue.

"What if i say i like you?"

The boy stopped pushing, and the girl was completely frozen. The boy sat at the swing beside the girl's and looked at her face. Her eyes were opened widely, mouth slightly agape, then she blinked a few times.

She looked at the person beside her, still with the same expression. The boy couldn't help to laugh and pinched her cheek. "Aigoo, you're so cute.."

He patted her head, and looked straight into her eyes. "I like you Jung Soojung. I really do." He finished his confession with a charming smile.

Heat started to come up to the girl's face, as she stared blankly at the boy.

"Wha-What?", the girl managed to say only making the boy huffed. "Do i really have to say that again? Do you know how nervous i was? It takes a lot of courage to say that! Aishh.."

The girl giggled at the currently frustrated boy, it was just to funny. He was being all so serious awhile ago, and then came back to his silly self right after.
