우지
I go silent now.
There's nothing more to say.

I stiffen in slight surprise as I feel your arms find their way around me.
Your head rests on my shoulder.

"I'm sorry," you say softly.
"I'm sorry we didn't meet earlier."

호시
"What, no," you say.
You finally relax in my arms.
"Don't be sorry. Maybe we weren't meant to meet."

I wish we can stay like this forever.
Us. Close together like this.

"Thank you," I hear you say close to my ear.

You're the first to pull away from the hug. I try my best not to show my disappointment.

Then, our eyes meet.
And I see your's shimmer brightly.
It feels longer than our glances in the hallways, because it is.

I don't want to look away.
But something else catches my attention.
