19). Lotus Candy

Nayoung POV:

Ong seongwoo has been avoiding me these days what's with him!????!! Shrug off my bad feeling I get my phone out and dial my friend who already in korea from the state.

"Chungha how long has it been? Let's meet this weekend" I said from my phone.

"Erm yeah I'm at my house they're just too excited to see me and yeah let's meet tmr chingu miss u so much" the girl voice heard from the other line.

"Miss u too babe~ " then I end the call walking out my room just to see a young boy around Jihoon age walk out from my brother's room too.

"Are u Jihoon friend?" I ask and did I hit him? No I didn't. Did I curse at him? No I didn't. I just ask is he my brother's friend but why tear drop on his handsome face. Why i still find the word handsome in this situation? Then Why is he crying?It's not like some kind of kdrama wheres the grim reaper drop his tear seeing the love of his past life. I live my whole life like a stone so there's no way I would have a dark past or anything lol.

I quickly go into my room and grab my favorite lotus candy it's bitter and sweet I've always like that. "Here take this" I wipe his tears and offer the young guy who tears start to falll again and this time with a smile on his face and stare at me as if I'm sculpture in museum.

"Hello do u know me?" I ask and he shake his head mutter thing like I'm still the same or whatever. "Then take this kid" I again offer him how can he leave the older hand hanging damn kid these day.

"Thank u~" he said. Aish didn't even call me noona if only u're not Jihoon friend u'd dead meat by now.

He then walk out of the house and I just go to watch my new favorite drama Hwayugi.

Woojin POV:

She doesn't remember me but why this still feel so good..she's still pretty and kind, Park Nayoung.

Flashback:
Losing my mom at the age of 12 when it's just the perfect time for me to get the whole parents love. The world is so cruel why?WHY WHY!!!!!!WHY TAKE HER AWAY.

I cried hard infront of my mom photo hanging in the mourning room in my black small suit that time. It's my fault for trying to get my already broken robot on the street. When I busily took the scatter pieces without notice the car fast driving and I just shut my eyes tightly at the light then I felt getting push out and I heard a loud crash and voice gatherings..My mom body lay there with blood all over her body. She look at me and I cried running to hug her body that already passed out but until the last minutes she still give my robot and said "Here woojin" then her eyes close tightly shut.

*

Dad look like he lost the world and I hate myself so much even everyone saying it's not my fault. I walk out the room and go outside the building. The cold wind in late winter night touch me and I just embrace myself with my small hand. Then I saw a girl with the same height sitting on the very end of stair. I ignore and just make my way down.

" Is it ur mother?" the girl ask stoping me from going more. I'm too sad to reply but I just settle down sitting near her. "Erm! She's in heaven now.."she touch my hand. "People with cold has a warm heart" she said not letting go of my arm. I try to hold my tear in  "p-eople s-a-y I-t's not m-y fau-ult" I said between my sob. "But I-m the-one-that-ma-ke-her -death" I stutter in every word. She then hug me. I let out the story in my chest and wanna at least to have someone saying it's fucking my fault.

She then hug me tight and talk "U want me to say it's ur fault after hearing all these story? Know what? The ahjusshi funeral next to your mom room dead from helping my brother..He's police officer and--" she cried too and continue "He had to leave the world for a stranger ..his kids are there and we're here to pay respect for his life we don't know how to repay this debt but his wife just cried and told us that he would still do the same even if he were to had another chance because it's his duty to protect people " she finished wiping her tear. "That's why it's not your fault ur mom will still do the same cuz how can she let her kid suffer" she broke the hug. "That's why assured her that u're capable of living without her..and let her Rest In Peace.."she pad my head lightly.

I felt secure and warm at her words it's like the very first time someone explain to me that why it's not my fault.

"Park Nayoung!" someone called.

"It's my dad! I will go back now bye..here take this" she said and give me the lotus candy from her hand. "It's bitter and sweet just like how life work cruel and gentle" she state before leaving and I just stare at her small body fading from my sight. How can a kid with mind like that?

The next day and the after the next day at mom's funeral i went out to that place again and again hoping to see her but she didn't come and the ahjusshi next door she talk about already move his funeral to other place.

-End of flashing-

It's a short meeting with her but the impression of this first meeting is too big and deep that I can't erase even after 5 years. Now that I found her Now that she's here Now that I know she's my friend sister I won't let her go like a kid I used to be.

This chapter didn't has main character but yeah woojin also special so why not make a story for this busan boy ^.^
