“Why do you keep buying me snacks these days?”
" uh? "
"He used to frown when I asked him to buy something for me, but now he's all smiles."
“What am I..!”
“Have you ever seen a handsome doctor? Is that why you always go out to see him?”
“No?”
"Anyway.. I won't eat snacks from now on, so stay right next to me."
“Mr. Lee… If you have it, it’ll be fine! If you have it…”
It seems like Kang Tae-hyun has caught on. He realizes that the reason I'm running errands so politely isn't entirely for his own good.
That's why quick-witted people get a little tired.
I came here earlier than usual today because I wanted to hear the answer quickly, but it was a complete flop. I got a real flop.
In the end, I was able to leave the hospital room only after Kang Tae-hyun fell into a nap and quickly headed down to the convenience store.
As expected, I took my time and thought long and hard about what to choose at the convenience store.
I hope that person will say hello first
“What the... Did you come down and then come back up already..?”
Even if you didn't come down yesterday because something big happened, why today? Are you not going to forgive me?
I really hope that's not the case.
In the end, I couldn't see it at the convenience store, and feeling regretful, I just kept walking around the first floor.
I walked around the first floor alone for over 10 minutes.
In the end, I couldn't see it even on the first floor, and with a heavy heart, I pressed the elevator button to go down.
Ding,
Knock knock,
“ ..!! ”
" ah.. "
When the elevator door opened, I saw him and was at a loss for words. Actually, I didn't even try to speak to him first. The awkwardness made him unconsciously say hello to me.
“Uh.. that.. um.. “
” … “
I deliberately avoided greeting him, and he just stared at me without saying hello first.
Can't you really say I can't be forgiven?
at that time,
" .. nice to meet you "
" yes..? "
"..is the answer"
” … “
“My answer to that question yesterday.”
" then.. "
“I will forgive you.”
“Really?”
“Now that you forgive me, please talk to me for a moment.”
So, I went to that garden bench with Beomgyu yesterday. Once again, silence flowed between us, and, as expected, I was the first to speak.
“What are you talking about?”
"Just, the stories from that day that you didn't know about"
" ah.. "
“From that day on, I went to a completely different hospital.”
” … “
“Really.. It was so hard for a month that I really wanted to die.”
” … “
"What's scary about people is that they adapt to it."
” … “
"Well, anyway, after that I found out that my mother was sick and she needed to be hospitalized urgently."
” … “
"So, I'm out for a bit now to take care of my mother."
” … “
“I have to go back there after I finish taking care of my mother.”
” … “
“If it were me before, I would have thrown a tantrum and asked you to go back with me.”
“ … ”
“But now that I know you have your own life, I can’t do that anymore.”
” … “
“So the reason I brought this up is...”
“..you’re giving me the power to decide”
"Right"
To be honest, I wanted to go back with you. Into that fantasy, to my Neverland.
But I questioned whether I could return to this person. Would I end up hurting him the same way again? Could I be sure I wouldn't?
Is it okay to tell someone who has already hurt you that you want to go back to them?
“Do you want me to go with you again?”
“ .. right ”
“Why? I already hurt you once...”
“The times that hurt were nothing compared to the times that brought happiness.”
“ … ”
“You are the person who can make me happy, and I become happy when you are by my side.”
“ … ”
“It’s okay to leave for a while. Like this again...”
” ..? ”
“Like a pinwheel, all you have to do is come back.”
“ … “
"Come with me, Yeoju."
” ..!! “
In the fairy tale, Peter Pan tells the now-grown Wendy that they should fly back there again. However, to the now-grown Wendy, these words sound like nothing more than the imaginative words of a child.
Wendy refuses to go with Peter Pan and remains in her own world. She tells Peter Pan that she has changed and tells him about "reality."
It's not Wendy who can be there for the wounded Peter Pan. It's Tinkerbell.
The reason that story sounds so appealing now is because I'm not Wendy. I'm Tinkerbell, not Wendy.
Tinkerbell, who abandons her 'reality' and chooses his 'fantasy'
I think that's me.
It's okay to stay in "reality" for a while. In fact, the "fantasy" that awaits you after leaving "reality" will be even more alluring and sweet.
Just go around and around and come back to where you started.
Like a pinwheel
“.. Okay, good.”
" .. also "
“ … ”
“I am happy when I am with you.”
Like this smile, it keeps turning around and coming back like that

“Look at that!”
“Wow.. I’m seeing that for the first time.”
“Wow, so pretty.. crazy.”
“Do you like it that much?”
" of course!! "
