ELUSIVE

PECULIAR

"May i get a bouquet of red roses, lilies, daisies and carnations, please? I don't know what the exact number to make it beautiful so i hope you can help me. I'll pay whatever price it is." The handsome man in his 30's said in a very good manner. Yerin as the florist smiled back as part of the etiquette she needs to practice.

"Okay sir. Is it for your girlfriend's graduation day?" Yerin asked trying to be friendly while making the bouquet. 

"Oh, you're right! Daebak, how did you know? I thought you're new here?" The man asked, feeling shock in a good way on how good Yerin can guess.

"The flowers that you chose is exactly what people will order for graduation day and nowadays , a lot of universities holding a graduation ceremony. And red roses? Red roses usually given for girlfriends, am i right? " Yerin said, trying to make the environment comfortable.

"Wow, you're amazing!" The man said while giving his both thumbs up to Yerin. While chatting together, the bouquet of flowers are done. The man satisfied with Yerin's works and decide to give her tips. Yerin bow and thanked the man before the man leaves the shop.

Yerin looked up to the clock and it shows that its her rest time. She take off her florist' apron and went to the pantry at the back of the shop. As usual, she take her lunch, sandwiches and stared out of the window, looking at the passerby.

Its been only 2 weeks she works at Seoul after being discharged from the hospital. Even though her childhood friend,Yuju tried to stop her from working since Yuju thought she still need to rest, Yerin succeed in persuading her because she want to repay Yuju kindness for taking care of her when she is 1 month coma and even paid for her hospital bill. Yuju said that she got into a serious almost fatal accident but luckily she survived. Unfortunately, due to her serious head injuries, she lost almost half of her memories. She do remember few things but everything is still unclear for her. She even can't remember her parents' face that well. 

"Family? Graduation? Do i have family and did i even grad from high school? I do remember that i attend high school but i'm not sure what happen next? I think its time for me to ask Yuju. Maybe she knew which high school i go and i can look for school yearbook." Yerin talks to herself while munching on her sandwich. 

'School yearbook?' These words reminds her of a guy she met when she was able to discharged from the hospital. A strange guy suddenly approached her when she was waiting for Yuju paying the hospital bill.

~Flashback

Yerin wait patiently while playing with her new smartphone, given by Yuju. Yuju said that her smartphone was badly damaged and cannot be used anymore. So Yuju bought her a new one. The only contact she has is Yuju's number. Yerin did asked about her parents and Yuju said that their parents went in separated way and she lives with her mother. Her mother involved in a fatal accident because of the drunken driver of the public bus she rode on her way to her job place. Then she lives with Yuju. Surprisingly, Yuju said Yerin also got into an accident while on her way to her job place too.

There are a lot of things she want to ask Yuju but Yuju said that she still needs to rest more. Yuju afraid that if she forced herself to remember a lot of things in a short time, Yerin might fall sick again.

While she was checking on her smartphone, she realize that a man take a sit right beside her. Not wanting to look rude, Yerin decide to bow but she did not look at the man's face and continue playing with her smartphone.

"You really don't remember me,Yerin-ah? Wah, i did heard that you had amnesia but you still can remember few things right? But how could you forget about me?" The man said, making Yerin looks to the man quickly as the man's loud voice attract a lot of people around her.
