dear beomgyu,

"no matter where you are,
no matter what season
if we're together,
feel like summer."

you asked me what was the title of the song i was singing after you shocked me while i was entering the dance studio. i remembered how you almost died of laughter probably because of my reaction. you were so loud, you attracted a lot of attention from other kids. after minutes of your busted laughters, you didn't forget to ask me the title of the song.

i didn't answer you because honestly, the song doesn't have a title yet. the words have been in my mind and i recently just thought of a melody. yes, it was my composition but it was that short. you asked me why i didn't know the title of the song i was singing but i just said the song is not finished yet. you were mesmerized about what i said and quickly concluded that i am writing a song. it wasn't a big deal to me, though, but you went around the kids to brag that i am writing a song. the other kids were also amazed and others just didn't care at all.

you never stopped asking for me to sing those four lines again and again just so you could learn the melody and the lyrics too. i repeated the song again and again but you asked for more. you were so cute and i can't even resist your smiles and pouts. i told you i wasn't really good at song-writing because i am still a kid and i don't know a lot of things yet, it's already given because we were just ten year olds.

you told me that you also like to compose songs but you can't compose english songs because it was hard. i agreed because after thinking of those lyrics, i lost words and suddenly don't know how to finish the song.

that day, you were so excited to go home and brag to me because you can now play a song on a guitar. i didn't know the song you were playing but it was beautiful. you even sang in korean and i swear, your voice was the most beautiful melody i've ever heard.

do you remember how we struggled to pick the right guitar chords for my song? because we were both young to know such things, your father even helped us to pick the right chords. he ewas even confused because my song only got four lines. you said you'll help me finish writing the song but we both don't know how because english wasn't our first language.

up until now, i still can remember that song. and i am holding on to the possibility that you still remember me. why? because that song was in your debut album. and i feel so hopeful and happy because of this.

i can't believe you really finished my song. it was supposed to be our song. beomgyu, i hope we can sing it together, again.
