[continuing from last chapter]

Dowoon jumped off the swings and ran over to Mrs.Kim

"Halmeoni, c-can I have a s-sandwich?"

"Of course Wonwoon-ah" she went into the basket and handed him a sandwich. He bowed, in which he was starting to loose his balance, then ran off to sit at a bench.

Soon a little girl came to sit next to him. She then tapped him, causing him to stop eating his sandwich and look at her confused.

"Do you have a girlfriend?"

"W-what's that?" He furrowed his eyebrows in confusion.

"A girl you really like. So do you have one?"

"I l-like Jijoon. S-she's very p-pwetty" he gave off his smile making the girl laugh.

" So she is your girlfriend!" Wonwoon shrugged and took a bite out of his sandwich.

"B-but I also like Jihoon. He's v-very pwetty too" The girl looked at him with a confused expression.

"Jihoon is a boy?" Wonwoon nodded his head and finished his sandwich.

"You like boys?"

"Y-you ask a lot of q-questions." The girl looked at him for a few seconds and shrugged.

"Eomma said it isn't good to like guys"

"W-well she isn't m-my eomma. W-why isn't it g-good to l-like boys?"

"Because it's wrong." The girl crossed her arms

"N-no it's not. W-what's your name a-anyway?"

"Jung Ji-yeon. What's yours?"

"Yoon Wonwoon." He smiled and held out his hand.

"No thank you. Gay people aren't cool" she crossed her arms and jumped off the bench leaving Wonwoon on the bench alone.

"Wonwoon-ah! It's time to go!"

"C-coming halmeoni!" He jumped off the bench and wobbled his way over to her.

She picked up Dopil, took Wonwoon's hand and they were off.

While they were driving home, Mrs.kim noticed Wonwoon looked a bit upset.

"Soja, why are you so sad?"

"I-it's nothing halmeoni."

"Are you sure Wonwoon?"

"Y-yes halmeoni." She looked at him for the final time and then back into the road.




They reached home and as soon as Mrs.Kim opened the door, Wonwoon ran into the house crying. He ran up the stairs and into Wonpil and Dowoon's room.

"Wonwoon-ah! What's wrong sunshine?" Wonpil picked him up and wiped his tears away.

"E-eomma! J-ji-yeon s-said t-that I'm n-not c-cool"

"Woonie don't listen to her. Your beyond cool. Why would she tell you such a thing?"

"S-she asked if I-I l-liked someone a-a lot and I s-said that I l-liked Jijoon because s-she's very pwetty b-but I also like Jihoon b-because he's very pwetty t-too" He started to cry again and Wonpil kissed him on the head and began to sing to him.

Dowoon on the other hand, walked away and was about to walk out until Wonpil called out to him.

"Where are you going?" Dowoon looked at him and gave off a smirk.
