I tucked him in and looked at him. He was a dream guy, that was no lie. How he was still single was beyond me. I suddenly thought of Haknyeon and wondered if he was seeing anyone. I felt a bit envious of whoever it could as he was pretty handsome now.

I thought back to the days he'd walk with me to school and cause trouble along the way. He nearly got himself killed with his clumsy self. I started to miss the days when I was carefree and happy. Now I'm stressed and depressed.

I found myself outside of Hanlim. And I wasn't alone. "I told you not to tag along." "But there's this cute guy who attends this school." "Who?" He remained tight lipped then walked ahead. "Suspicious..."

We waited by the entrance as Minhyun came to meet us. "Where's Sunwoo...?" "Class." I slightly frowned then noticed Junggeun eyeing Minhyun up and down. "I see, Jun." "What?" "Nothing..." I playfully shoved him as Minhyun guided us. "It's him isn't it?" "No..."

I looked around and was in awe of how elegant things looked. We sat down at a table that was made of glass. "He'll be here soon. If you don't mind, there was something I wanted to show Jun here..." I waved them off as I observed other students.

I noticed a couple not too far from me being all lovey dovey with each other. I frowned as he fed her a piece of cake. "Wind." He dropped the fork then sneered at her. "I don't love you anymore." "I never cared for you." He seemed surprised then stormed off.

I started to feel slightly guilty and wished I hadn't said anything. Soon the entire area was in a foul mood and I no longer wanted to be present. As soon as I left the area, everyone seemed to have gone back to normal. I didn't ask for this, but I'm cursed with it.

"Hak!" I looked at Sunwoo who seemed to be radiating with positivity. "Hey." "You don't seem too good. What happened." "A couple broke up." "Really? Well, things happen." I couldn't look him in the eye. I felt that I'd crumble under his positive gaze.

Haknyeon seemed weirder than usual. I placed my hand on his shoulder then felt him jump under my touch. "Sorry." "It's fine." "Let's take a walk." I interlocked our hands then dragged him out of the building.

I stopped a little ways off campus then motioned for him to follow my lead. We arrived at my favorite place that was blooming with flowers. "This is pretty." "I come here to let out any emotion." "That's pretty smart." I couldn't help but smile along with him.

He squatted then proceeded to gently touch the flowers. "Life is kinda like a flower, beautiful let delicately dangerous." "Eh..." He stood up then sighed. "Our bodies are fragile, yet being able to live is wonderful isn't it?"

"Now you're going emo hours." "Maybe so. And just like how flowers only last for so long, it's the same with love." I couldn't understand what he was trying to tell me through this comparison of life to a flower. "Fleeting, yet beautiful."

"Hak, did you read something beforehand?" He turned towards me then smiled. "Just admiring the beauty of things and how short their span is." He looked sad. "Did you have a fight with a lover?" "No." I looked around in hopes that no one else heard me.

I noticed a few had come over then wondered why Haknyeon never seemed to be affected by it. "Sunwoo?" "Yeah?" He pointed at the people and I shrugged in response. "Guess I'm popular." He didn't seem convinced, but didn't prove further.

"Hak, can you be honest with me?" "Depends." "I'm going to ask again, do you have some weird power?" "Why do you want to know?" I pulled free of their embraces then glued myself to Haknyeon. "I'll tell you a secret. Sounds good?" "Yeah."

He mumbled something and soon the people went on their way. "I don't know why. Or how, but I can take away romantic feelings." I rapidly blinked then laughed. "Well, I create love around me. I have to be cautious though. As you saw previously..."
