She went out for a walk, with a transparent umbrella she was holding above her wearing a warm long coat and boots, earphones plugged in her ears. Raindrops were heard dropping down her umbrella, and she always liked it. She liked the weather, and this feeling.

As she was just walking through the sidewalk, there was this kid who earned her attention.

The kid was all soaked in rainwater, playing all alone at the small flood.

She slightly leaned to the kid and put her other hand on her knee.

"Hey kiddo." She called out. "You might get sick here playing out in the cold weather."

"Oh?" The kid showed her teeth, happily. "Eomma! There's a person!" She called out to her mom.

"Go on." Her mom weakly smiled to the kid.

"Ehem." She cleared her throat.

The kid sung a cute song, which kept her entertained.

The kid bowed, and smiled to Abbie.

She clapped her hands to the kid.

"Eonni," The kid called out to her. "We're hungry, do you perhaps have food for us to eat? We don't have enough money to buy."

And the kid did an aegyo. "Pwizz?" She pouted.

She giggled. "Sure. Let me just buy some. Wait for me here, hmm?" She ruffled the little girl's wet hair and went to a near store where she could buy food. She went back after to the kid and her mom, and gave them the food.

"Eommoni, here, take this." She warmly smiled and leaned to them, handing them a plastic filled with food and beverages.

"Aigoo, you're a nice person, aren't you?"

"Ah, no." She chuckled. "Anyone would help you in this case. I mean they should..." She mumbled the last sentence.

"They don't..." She sadly smiled. "We're just dirty beggars here getting soaked in the rain and almost freezing to death when it snows. But we're used to it."

She forced a smile. "Come live in my house first. You might get sick."

"No, no. There's no need, we'll find a place soon."

"Then why don't you take my umbrella and coat first? My house is just nearby anyways so-"

"No, no. We don't need those." She waved her hand, which was a sign of denying.

"Aye~ come on, just take it." She slowly removed her coat until someone touched her and stopped her. That touch was familiar, and it was from someone whom she knew.

She looked up to the guy. "Yoongi?"

"Why are you removing your coat and giving them your umbrella? Don't you know it's raining?" He whispered to her ear which made her shiver a bit.

She elbowed him and smiled. "Take it. My boyfriend's here anyways." She removed her coat completely, only revealing her black oversized hoodie and white shorts.

He was shocked.

"B- boyfriend" He repeated to himself, mumbling. He blushed.

"Ah, thank you, young lady. You're so kind." She smiled, before calling her daughter. "Sarang-ah! Let's go eat, eonni bought us some food!"

She ran towards her mother and faced Abbie.

"Thank you, eonni!" She bowed. "Eonni jjang!" She showed a thumbs up to her, which Abbie thought was cute. "Eonni, this is your boyfriend?" She pointed to Yoongi.

She looked at him, with sad eyes and a forced smile, and he did too.

But she managed to look at the little girl and answered, "Eung. He's handsome, right?" She scrunched her nose and smiled.

The girl nodded. "You're going to grow up together with each other. I can feel it. When you get married with each other, make me your flower girl, okay?" The girl chuckled, but the mom shuts her up and makes her sit back.

She sadly smiled, and nodded. "Mhm. We will."

She stood up straight. "Alright, we'll get going. Eat well, okay?" She ruffled the little girl's hair. "Don't get sick, hmm?"

"Yes, eonni." She playfully saluted, and Abbie pats the little girl's head. "Bye~"

"Bye!!" The kid said, before they went away. "Have a happy time together!" She shouted.

I wish we could, Sarang.

She miserably smiled to herself.

I wish we could.
