Boxes were lying all over Bomi's new house. She had already finished unpacking and now all she had to do left was to keep the boxes. It was hard work but she managed to get it done by herself.
This is Bomi's first house after getting a divorce. It was time for a new era for her.
A new start.
***
Baekhyun jumped onto his bed with his back facing up. A tired Baekhyun needs some rest and that was what he was gonna do now. He reached out to turn off the lamp beside him but then he stopped. The reason being something peeking out from his bag.
The man stood up and walked over to the table where the bag was. He took what he wanted and looked at it. It was a photo.
A photo of him and his ex-wife. Although they have already divorced, Baekhyun was still unconfident throwing out this one. This was his only memory he has left with Bomi. It was his favourite one too. The moment when they met. They took a selfie as strangers. Fell in love at first sight. Both knew that each other was their soulmate.
***
Meanwhile, Bomi was slowly starting to lose belief in love. She recalled the moment when they first met. Hah, love at first sight. No such thing as that. Hate at first sight was more believable,
If love existed, she wouldn't be a divorcee. She would still be with Baekhyun. But unfortunately, love does not exist to Bomi anymore. She was fed up with all the challenges she had to face. From now on, she promised herself to never love again.
**Flashback**
"Aaaaaah, gwiyeopta," Bomi cooed as she looked at the puppy jumping up and down in its cage.
Bomi and her friends went shopping and decided to go into the pet shop. All her other friends went to different pets while she chose the puppy section, since she loves dogs so much.
"Excuse me sir, can you take a picture of me, please?" Bomi asked a guy who just stepped into the puppy section. Bomi looked up at his face and froze on the spot for a while. She was amazed at what she saw. A guy with such a handsome face that managed to catch her eye.
"Only if we take a picture together later," Baekhyun grinned. Nice moe Baek. He fell in love right there on the spot. Right at that place, he fell in love with Yoon Bomi.
Bomi didn't hesitate to agree. She wanted to get to know this guy better. Baekhyun took a picture of Bomi and the puppy and afterwards, they took a selfie together.
"My name is Byun Baekhyun. What's yours?" Baekhyun questioned after the photo.
"Yoon Bomi."
Baekhyun was about to say something when Bomi saw her friends signaling her to go to them. Bomi signaled something to Baekhyun and he got the idea.
"I have a feeling we will see each other again," Baekhyun said to Bomi as she was walking away.
"Maybe," Bomi looked back and plastered a smile on her face. She then walked to her friends and got bombarded with questions about what she was doing with that guy.
"Did you hook up with him?" Eunji asked her once they were a distance from the pet store.
"No, of course not. We just met," Bomi answered.
"Yeah, yeah," Namjoo teased and the girls continued walking,
**End of flashback**
"What makes you think that I will make a good couple with him?" Bomi asked Eunji as she sipped her cup of coffee.
"He is nice and quite handsome too. I just thought he could relieve your heart after your divorce," Eunji answered her.
"Don't ever mention the divorce in front of me," Bomi sighed. "Plus, I've already made a promise to never fall in love again."
"But why do you refuse to fall in love again? Are you sure you want to spend your life with no one by your side?" Eunji asked.
"Who said I will spend my life alone? I believe in marriage. But not love," Bomi replied calmly. Eunji looked at her confused.
"But the person you marry is the person you love," Eunji commented.
"Maybe that's your definition of marriage. To me, marriage is just signing some contracts with someone," Bomi twirled her hair.
"Contracts that can change your life."
"Yeah, it does change my life. But it only changes my relationship and nothing more." Bomi was getting tired of talking about this. "It's late. Why don't you go home now, Eunji?"
"Huh, okay fine." Eunji stood up from her chair and walked to the door and opened it. Before she closed the door behind her, she said in a soft voice loud enough for Bomi to hear, "I hope you will find your true love soon, Bom."
Eunji closed the door and Bomi rolled her eyes at what she just heard. She will never fall in love. Not after what happened the first time she did.
