Thirteen

I went out with Jeongguk one day
he took me to a beautiful botanical garden

a female employee gave me a white Camellia flower
when she heard that it was also my name
to which I shyly smiled in response

she said it symbolised adoration
I didn't think that I deserved it
still don't to be completely honest

but Jeongguk had ruffled my hair
whispering that I was cute

my smile fell and I felt my cheeks getting hot
he must have noticed since he coughed awkwardly

he then got distracted by other plants in the vast vicinity
or maybe he pretended to be

it was nice to be complimented
nice to spend time with someone I was now comfortable with

yes
I was finally comfortable with him

it took a while
but he did all the work

not me
never was me back then.
