it was fucking freezing
outside but I sat on
my hands on the
cold bench and waited
so patiently for my father
to leave the bathhouse and
take a train here

" he must have missed it" I sighed, letting my head fall back as I looked
up at the stars,
one star was brighter
than the others

I'd like to think that
star is my mother
looking down at me

I was too immersed in the sky to
notice the sounds of
shuffling feet and a quiet thud
next to me

" m-min yoosun?" a quiet voice spoke,
under a scarf

I
jumped
out of my skin
and spun my head to the right

" erm, yes? that's me." I said to the
lump of a plush orange coat and red
scarf and waited

" I'm k-kim minsoo, from school, and I

the lump sighed

I have a crush on you"

the train pulled up, and let off a cloud of steam and smoke
the doors opened and invited me in, I could see my father there , beckoning me inside

" quick , before I have to go
put your number in my phone"
I pulled my hand from
under my butt and fished out my phone and gave it to him

" oh u-um, here"

he gave it to me

" I like you too but
I have to go
I'm sorry
meet me at the bathhouse by shinwae
river okay?"

"o-okay" I could see two cheeks squished in a smile

I waved goodbye and greeted my
father at the train

" who's that boy?" the old fart raised an eyebrow at me

" just a stranger "

— true end
