Just Like a Memory | Yuwin ✔️

𝑪𝒊𝒕𝒚 𝑳𝒊𝒇𝒆

It was the Christmas holidays now, and we were back in Osaka, visiting Yuta's family for one week. We were going to China next week to visit mine for New Year's. All the travelling made it very busy, and very stressful to say the least.

We had already been in Osaka for three days and tomorrow is Christmas eve. Yuta was currently dragging me through the streets of his home city. A bright smile plastered to his face as we zigzagged through the crowd.

We stopped walking when we reached the end of a smaller street that was particularly quiet and yet I could hear the bustle of a nearby busy one.

"Wha- Yuta, what are you doing?" I panicked as he covered my eyes with both his hands, standing behind me as he did so.

"Just, trust me" he stated confidently. I could feel him urging me forward so I took a few curious steps, trying to make sure I didn't trip over anything.

"Okay, a few more steps forward. Okay~ stop! Alright then, are you ready?" he asked, hands still covering my eyes.

"I'm not sure. Why is it so loud all of a sudden and, ah, who just pushed me?" I questioned, worry laced in my tone.

"Oh, sorry" an unfamiliar voice apologised before they continued walking.

"Okay, I'm going to uncover your eyes in, three...two...one" and on one his hands were removed from my eyes.

At first, everything was a bit blurry but as soon as everything came into focus, I was stood in awe.

Every tree that ran down the street had fairy lights climbing up its trunk. The buildings were also decorated with lights of different colours.

Running down each side of the middle of the street, leaving enough room behind them to get into the actual buildings, there were market stalls. They were also decorated brightly with festive decorations hanging from the roofs and draped across the counters. Some were even designed to look like gingerbread houses.

Each stall had different contents. Some selling food while others sold jewellery. The variety of colour and items left me awestruck. It was beautiful.

"I thought you'd like it" Yuta smiled after a minute or so of me looking around at the beauty. He slipped his hand into mine and started leading us down the street.

We occasionally stopped at a stall to grab something to eat or drink and every so often sporting something to buy as a gift for someone.

We spent the night wandering around the different markets dotted around the city, some accompanied by a funfair. It was honestly one of the best nights of my life.

And the whole time he just seemed so...

×××

"Ah, I'm so sorry" a lady apologised softly before continuing around me. I looked around and noticed that I was currently walking through the city with Jaehyun and Doyoung.

They both seemed concerned by the lost and confused expression I had, frowning as they tried to figure if I was okay. I smiled as I continued to walk, now aware of my surrounding. The market that surrounded us wasn't as bright and colourful as the one I had seen in my memory. If that what it even is.

But then it kicked in. The sickening pain in my stomach, the dizziness and fatigue. My head began pounding and all my surroundings became too much. I could feel my body weakening, struggling to hold me up.

As as I almost fell to the floor, Jaehyun managed to steady me, wrapping his arm around my upper torso while also still moving so we didn't get in the way.

"We need to take you back to the hotel. You don't look so good" Jaehyun commented.

"No, I'm fine, it's just a bit busy that's all" I shook off, trying to stand up myself but just falling back into his arm.

"I agree with Jaehyun. You look really pale and you can't even walk by yourself" Doyoung added, his eyes sad as he watched me struggle to hold myself up.

"I said I'm fine. Can we just leave it at that? I think I'm just going to go for a walk along the bay. Get some fresh air without the crowdedness of the streets. I'll meet you back at the hotel" I responded, removing Jaehyun's arm from me and just about finding the strength to walk away and down a more quiet street to the side of the main one.

I needed to get him out of my mind. I don't understand what triggered me to see him this time, but there he was, making me happy and then boom, I was back in reality, the pain surging through me like a poison. I need to find out who he is, but maybe after the concert. But still, I question,

Who is he??
