"Noona please let go of my bag"
As y/n opens her eyes, she sees a young boy gripping onto a bag that she has clutched, looking pleadingly at her to let go.
"I'm so sorry!" Y/n lets go of the bag.
"Flight K713 has landed in Seoul. Passengers please grab your bags from the above cubbies and exit the plane in an orderly fashion."
A dark brown haired girl with messy pigtails, a white neck pillow around her neck, black beanie with a pompom, an oversized knitted white sweater, black jeans and grey Tims scurries to retrieve her bags and exit the plane.
Y/n, now currently 18 years old, has been studying abroad in one of the most prestigious schools in New York for 4 years. She remembered having found out about this great opportunity and jumping around her house yelling out "I'm going to America!" She also remembered the day she had left for her flight. Her friends and family had come to wish her farewell, among them her best friend of 10 years and crush, Hwang Hyunjin. They had known each other since they were both four, as their moms were friends since high school. Y/n and hyunjin have grown up together and have been there for all of the important events in each others lives.

That day at the airport, Hyunjin grabbed y/n in a tight hug, sobbing into her shoulders unable to say anything. He couldn't bear the thought of loosing his best friend, the person who knew him better than anyone else. As y/n let go, turning around to go board her plane, Hyunjin grabbed her wrist and said "please STAY."
Y/n had been in Hyunjin's life for as long as he could remember. She was the only female he could stand in his life besides of course, his family. Hwang Hyunjin was always wanted by all the girls in his school. They used y/n to get to him by befriending her. Some bullied her because she was always around Hyunjin. The truth is, Hyunjin found y/n more beautiful than any girl he'd ever seen. She was so different, beautiful inside and out. When she spoke, she could never stop and her face lit up with passion. Her eyes twinkled and her cheeks turned red. While she spoke, Hyunjin stared deep into her eyes, watching her every movement. He loved to watch her bite her lip in concentration and pout ever so frequently. Y/n never noticed him stare at her because she'd always been so concentrated on speaking. Words flowed from her like a quick and easy river. She had a bubbling and energetic personality and she loved to cheer people up. What Hyunjin loved most about y/n however, was her selflessness.
As y/n remembered that day at the airport, hot tears poured down her face and onto the baggage wheel. She was clutching the white teddy bear with a pink bow that Hyunjin had given her to remember him by before she left for America.
She has not spoken to Hyunjin for 4 years. She didn't know whether he changed or not. Is she going to be able to recognize her best friend? Would he remember her? Has he replaced her?

"Yah, didn't I tell you I never want to see you cry?"
Y/n turned around to the direction of the voice.
