Yeoreum and I are sitting by the stairs in front of an ice cream shop. I specially want our date to be memorable enough.

She was holding her ice cream while smiling shyly. What was she thinking right now?

"Why?"

She slightly bowed her head to hide her smile. "Nothing. I just remembered something,"

"Eh? How can you remember something-- I mean, what did you remember? Is it from your childhood?"I asked her directly. I almost spat out a stupid question.

"Hmmm? Yeah. I dreamt last night. It was a happy dream. I almost thought it was real,"she said and took a scoop of her ice cream. Yeah. Ice cream in winter. Ahehe. Only in novels happen.

"Care to share?" I took a scoop of my ice cream, too. Vanilla's the flavor. It's my favorite. And Yeoreum, too.

"Okay! So here it goes. I think it was a child Yeoreum and another child Yeoreum,"she stopped to look at me. "Are you confused?"

I nodded. A child Yeoreum and a child Yeoreum...? What?

"In my dream, there were two Yeoreum's. They were holding hands. Their dresses were the same. They were smiling and giggling. But they have different voices. The first one had a high pitch voice and the other one had a normal pitch voice. Let's just say, the first one had a high pitch voice...? Wait, I'm confusing myself,"we laughed together.

She continued, "And there was a tall boy who had a gummy smile, like you. He was walking towards the two girls. He held the other girl's hand. The first one looked jealous but she continued to smile because the other one was happy. The gummy boy just kept his gaze to the other girl. It seemed like... he's inlove with her?"

My heart skipped a beat. This happened in the past. Is she remembering?

She took another scoop of ice cream before continuing. "I'm so weird. It was a happy dream at first until it turned into a sad dream,"

"The first girl was at the hospital, looking very pale. Beside her is the other girl and the gummy boy. They were crying together because the first girl... was lifeless,"she wiped away her tears. She chuckled.

"It's supposed to be a dream. Why am I crying over it? My dream ended when the first girl opened her eyes and smiled at the other girl,"she frowned. "It's because of Jihoon!"

She dreamt of her late twin sister. It's a clue that she's remembering! What triggered the memories? Or who triggered the memories?

I took a scoop of my ice cream and stared at a blank space. Winter... you probably are listening to your twin right now. And hey. It's your month! It's winter now. The right time for her to remember.

I felt my phone vibrated. I let out a sigh before reading the text message.

From: 엄마 💕

CHOI SEUNGCHEOL! IT HAS BEEN MILLIONS OF YEARS SINCE YOU'RE GONE! WHEN WILL YOU REALIZE THAT YOU'RE THE STUDENT COUNCIL PRESIDENT?!?!??!!??!?!?!?! YOU NEED TO COME BACK! NOOOOOW!

btw son, iloveu.

I chuckled at her text. Mom is really funny.

"I think we should go back to Busan. We can't stay here for two months or three. The wedding can wait, right?"

I craned my neck to look at her. Well, I left my responsibility at the school. And heck, Yeoreum and Seungkwan are so young to marry.

"I don't want to marry him, gummy. Even though I like him as a man, time is important. The feelings can wait. Time can not. It's too soon to marry. We're dating for now,"she replied.

One question, is she sure of her feelings for Seungkwan?
