25 – Episode 25 (Seoah)

“You threw away the letter?”

“Yeah”

For some reason.. I don’t know why, but I feel like I need to take a look.. No, I have a hunch.

“Where did you throw it away?”

“Uh..? Just at the recycling bin.”

“Wait, Seoah?!”

I ran. In case Jihun wrote me a letter.

If that letter got in while I was gone and cleaning up.

If there was anything.. If there was anything of Jihun’s trace for me.

I wished for it.

I ran

And I started looking for the letter while rummaging through the trash

[To Seo-ah]

“This handwriting..”

I can’t forget it

I had seen him holding a pencil from time to time, so I opened the letter without hesitation

Hi, I think this is the first time I write something like this

I think you caught my eye from the moment I met you

But I felt that you looked more sad and tired than the cool and confident image that everyone knows

Everyone wants love from you, but I wish you happiness

A boy who likes you

“…It’s Ji-hoon”

He was the same in the future and in the present

He understood my feelings first

And he worried more about my feelings than his own

“Sniff.. What is this, Ji-hoon.. You really can’t write well”

But still, I hugged the letter that was clumsy but sincere and heartfelt, and I thought of Ji-hoon

Fortunately, there was a letter and I climbed the stairs with a light heart after putting the letter in my hand

And until school was over, I went to the bathroom and read it once in a while to recharge Ji-hoon’s energy

“Be careful on your way home”

I rushed out today and looked for Jihoon’s class, but I couldn’t find him anywhere

Does Jihoon leave quickly after school?

I had no choice but to go home

No, to be exact, I walked home a little detour

“Come on, let’s play together just once?”

“Yeah, it’ll be fun”

How did this happen?

I was just walking normally, but I ran into some troublemaking punks

“Get lost, you bastards, I don’t want to see your faces”

I shouted as usual, or even more, and the punks laughed and said

“Ah, you’re so temperamental, just go if you want..”

Slap

“Get lost, don’t touch me, I have a boyfriend”

But I wasn’t easy to mess with. How dare you touch my body that Jihoon hasn’t even touched yet?

“You f*cking bastard!!”

The guy raised his hand and I was ready to kick his leg…

“Hey, you bastard!!!”

“Hey..hey you f*cking b*tch!!!”

Ji..Ji-hoon!?

Ji-hoon saved me like a prince in a fairy tale and took me to the park.

“Th

“Do you want to come to my house?”

I was naturally excited and agreed. Going to his house was an irresistible offer.

So after class ended and I was on my way to meet Ji-hoon

Wait.. Going to Ji-hoon’s house means Ji-hoon also prepares for it and then we meet again after separating..

I briefly looked down at my clothes

The uniform that students wear normally and this uniform was the one I wore with someone else’s help when I first entered school. That’s why I tailored it myself to fit me.

And that means I don’t have any clothes to wear at home that are also good enough to show Ji-hoon

“…”

I’m screwed! What..what do I do? I can’t show Ji-hoon my first outfit that’s all stretched out

Then the only option left is…

“…let’s go out and buy some”

I have some money saved up. I have to use that money to show Ji-hoon some normal clothes.

That’s what I should have done..

“Seo-ah..?”

Ji-hoon suddenly appeared again. He was resentful unlike last time, but I thought it was better to think positively and I accepted his styling.

And then I finally got to Ji-hoon’s house

“Are you leaving already?”

I also met his mom and I was able to get closer to Ji-hoon.

I did well on the test and went to the zoo and I was able to get closer to Ji-hoon.

‘..Do I suit him?’

I felt it once again as I saw him run to help the child

He is a person with a good nature

He would help an old lady who was carrying a heavy load on the street and worry about anyone who was in trouble around him

Honestly, there were times when I wished he would only pay attention to me, but I was no longer jealous of his kindness to everyone because of his actions

But the one thing that kept bothering me was whether I would only get closer to Ji-hoon by a certain distance or whether we should reconnect again

“I have feelings for you”

Ji-hoon may not know, but I know that he is interested in me

But I couldn’t do anything for him

Money

Connections

Family

I had nothing

I was just a pretty doll

But that thought was only for a moment

“I’m going to confess to her at this festival”

My heart raced at Ji-hoon’s words

Ji-hoon.. making me happy..

After that, I couldn’t show him my face

He was worried about me, but I couldn’t tell him

I was too embarrassed to say that I like you too

The words that wanted to come out of my mouth kept stopping

Can I really be by his side?

Am I really his future Seo Ah?

He makes me happy, but can I make him happy?

I grew up watching my trash-like parents, so I know myself well

If you have nothing, you can’t achieve anything

Can I really approach him?

If Ji Hoon was here right now…

If my husband was here… what would he say to me?

Would he say he likes me as I am?

Or… would he want me to be someone who has money, a job, and connections?

I wish he would tell me… please tell me

I can’t bear to live a life that is lonely and miserable like before, with no one by my side

If I run away from here again, like I did in the past…

“But still…”

“But still, you know, I think we can be happy together”

“I don’t know if we can be happy by ourselves, but maybe we can be happy if we’re together?”

So that’s how it was…

I was a fool

I wasn’t just receiving his help all this time

Jihun was happy when I was happy

I finally smiled and felt relieved

“And if you’re going to do it, do it right”

“…Huh?”

“Do it properly.. at the festival”

I said that to Jihun jokingly

“Ah! Uh..uhng!”

“But if you can’t impress me like you did now, I’ll reject you, so you have to do well~”

And I said just one thing

“Let’s talk to each other from now on. If something seems wrong, we must! Talk, okay?”

You know I’ll tell you everything someday, right..?

“I got it”

“And please take good care of me from now on, Jihun”

“Me too, please take good care of me, Seoah”

And then I looked at Jihun and said

“I love you!”

After that, I was so happy

To be in love with Jihun again, whom I met again

And Jihun when he was young had a different freshness

I met Jihun when I was at the end of my twenties and I married Jihun when I was in my early thirties

That’s why Jihoon’s appearance was a bit solemn before, but now it was very bright and cheerful.

“So.. let’s go to college and.. work.. together”

We are in different classes now, but we are still in the same school. But when we go to college, we might be separated.

Of course, I could go to the same college as Jihoon, but then he would feel sorry for me for the rest of his life.

So, Jihoon, let’s study hard.

After that, Jihoon and I got almost high scores.

Now, the only thing left was the festival preparation.

In the middle of it, a maid cafe booth came out.

“Hey, we have few girls in our class, so you have to wear a maid costume?”

He said that, but his eyes were full of expectation.

‘Should I wear it for him later?’

“What do you want to do, Seoah?”

Jihoon asked me that, and I thought to myself

I want to be by your side.

“Just something quiet”

If we prepare a lot, I would be away from Jihoon for a long time. So, I was sorry to my classmates, but I didn’t want to prepare much and just do something comfortable.

That’s how our class booth was decided to be a movie theater booth.

I said I wanted to do something easy, but somehow it turned out like this.

“hehehehe~”

I hummed a song and went to Jihoon’s class to help him out. I also got to see his handsome appearance.

“What, are you going again today?”

That’s when Seohyun called me and said

From Noble mtl dot com

“Yeah, you must be having a hard time..”

“It’s hard.. Someone is going out with their boyfriend, you know”

“Wha..what boyfriend~”

I denied it with a smile, but

“They already know everything, right? So just accept it”

“Yeah..”

“Well, I’m glad that I have Seokho at the place where I’m helping out, so we’re doing it together”

“Hmm~ Are you interested in Seokho?”

“!! No..no way?!”

As we walked, I felt like they could get closer if they had some opportunity

And then on the festival day, I met Jihoon and we stood alone

And then another unbelievable thing happened

“So ever since I met you, I felt lonely, so..”

[Will you.. marry me?]

That’s what I.. said..

No matter how coincidental it is.. this is

“Are you Jihoon..?”

Really…

“No! That.. ugh, do you know what day it is on October 21st?”

I wasn’t alone here…

“October.. 21st?”

I was with you…?

“You.. are you”

“Jihun!?”

“Seoah!?”

“I’m sorry for being lonely all this time, let’s always be together from now on”

We hugged each other for a while like that

“Yeah.. let’s never break up again”

Never…
