Shownu's POV
Every night before I closed my curtains I looked across the street to another house, where a boy always stood staring at me.
Every night I waved at him and he waved back, it was sort of our nighttime routine before we went to sleep.
Every night I fell for him a little bit more, despite never talking to him... he was an extremely attractive male with a small face and bubblegum pink hair.
After maybe a year of repeating the same routine every night I decided to go across the street and meet this boy.
I knocked on the door and waited until a lady who looked about the same age as my mum opened the door.
"Hello dear, can I help you?" she smiled kindly.
"Hello, I was wondering if I could talk to the boy who lives here? I don't know what his name is but I see him in the window in the front bedroom every night."
"I'm sorry dear, no boy has lived here for a few months. It's only my husband and I that live in this house." she said sadly.
I apologised for my mistake and went back to my house, maybe I had knocked on the wrong house?
I went upstairs to my room and looked out the window and sure enough the boy was there again, smiling. It was the same house I'd knocked on a few minutes ago, so why did she lie to me?
The next day I knocked on the door again and a man answered this time.
"Hello sir, does a boy with bubblegum pink hair live here?"
His eyes saddened. "That's my son, Kihyun. He died a few months ago... did you know him?"
I stared at him for a few seconds. He died a few months ago? Then why could I see him every night from my window?
"I see- no, I saw him every night from my window so I was wondering who he was. Sorry to disturb you and I'm sorry for your loss."
That night I looked out my window but the boy wasn't there. I sighed, maybe I had been hallucinating seeing him for the past few months?
I turned around and jumped, the boy Kihyun was standing in front of me.
He smiled sadly. "So you only ask my parents who I am when I'm dead? You didn't want to get to know me when I was alive?"
"You're a ghost?" I gulped and reached a hand out, it went straight through him.
"I wanted to get to know you, which is why I went to your house but I guess I'm too late."
"I enjoyed waving to you every night from my bedroom when I was alive and I wanted to continue doing it when I died. Now I visit you when you're sleeping so I can imagine what we could have had when I was alive."
"I'm sorry Kihyun, I should have visited you sooner..." a tear fell from my eye.
"Don't cry Shownu, some other guy will be extremely lucky to date you. But promise me one thing."
"Anything."
"Wave to me every night from your window, apart from my parents, you were the only other happy thing in my life."
"Of course, I will wave to you even if I'm dating someone else" I replied.
From that night on, I made sure to wave to Kihyun every night before going to bed. Despite knowing he was dead, I felt some comfort in continuing my night routine of waving to the bubblegum pink haired boy across the road.
