FLASHBACK

HAJIN'S POV

"Hajin-a," I heard my mom called my name as she enter my room. "Have you done packing?" my mom asked. "Yup," I said as I stare at all the boxes in my bedroom. My mom walked in and sat on my bed. She puts her hand on my shoulder and rubs it softly. "Are you okay?" she asked. I smile bitterly. "Physically not, but yeah I'm okay." I said. A sad face plastered on my mom's face. "Have strength, okay? Eomma and Appa will always be by your side. So, don't ever give up." She said with a smile. I smile back at her, trying to hide my sadness.

"Have you told Taekwang yet?" she asked. I went silent. I've been planning to tell him since last week. But, I just can't. "I'll tell him later," I said. Then, my mom walked out of my bedroom. I laid my body on my bed and stared at the ceiling. "Should I just not tell him?" I asked myself. I moved my head to the left. I stare at a picture on my desk. A picture of me and Taekwang when we're 6 years old, laughing on a swing. A smile plastered on my face. "Ahh, how should I tell you, Taekwang-a?" I asked at the picture.

AUTHOR'S POV

"Ya, I can't wait till we're High School." Taekwang said as he eats his ice cream. There's no reply from Hajin. Taekwang look at Hajin who's staring blankly at her ice cream. "Hajin-a," Taekwang said, awakening Hajin. "Ne? Are you saying something? Sorry I didn't catch that," Hajin said. Taekwang look at Hajin strangely. "What's wrong with you for the past few days?" Taekwang asked. Hajin went silent. "Is there something you wanted to tell me?" he asked again, hitting the jackpot. Hajin gulped down. "Nothing, I'm just feeling a little bit tired these past few days." Hajin said. She eats her ice cream, trying to avoid eye contact with Taekwang. Taekwang knows something's a bit off but he just went silent.

"Kim Hajin! Let's play together!" Taekwang shouts in front of Hajin's house. He's holding his basketball to play with Hajin. There's no reply. "It's weird. She usually pops up as soon as I call her." Taekwang said to himself. Suddenly, the ahjumma who works at Hajin's house walks out. "Ahjumma," he called the ahjumma. The ahjumma went startled. "Oh, Gong Taekwang. Are you looking for Hajin?" she asked. "Ne," Taekwang replied happily. "Aigoo, you don't know?" the ahjumma said with a pity face. "Know what?" he asked the ahjumma carefully. "Hajin and her family already moved out. The just left 30 minutes ago," she said. Taekwang dropped his basketball and went silent. "Taekwang-a, are you okay?" the ahjumma asked. "Where is she?" Taekwang said in a trembling voice. "Ne?" the ahjumma asked. "WHERE IS SHE?" he shouts.

Hajin stares at the sky from her seat's window. She's currently on an airplane to America. "It's for the best, right?" she asked herself. "I'm sorry Taekwang-a," she mumbles.

Taekwang closed his bedroom door and lean his back on it. "He's right, who am I to say that?" Taekwang asked himself. "No way, you didn't like Hajin too, right?" he reminisce what Moonbin said. "Did I?" Taekwang asked himself once again. "Gong Taekwang, you must be crazy. How can you like your childhood best friend? And worse than that, you already have a girlfriend." Taekwang said to himself. He hit his head to the door continuously. Then he suddenly gets up. "I like Eunbi, I like Eunbi, I like Eunbi, I like Eunbi," he mutters to himself as he walks around his bedroom.
