"Hoonji!
Are you sure you won’t regret it?
I...
I might get irritated whenever I feel anxious, and
I might waver."
"I’ll keep you from wavering.
I’m sure I won’t regret it."
"Then...
I’ll trust you, Hoonji, more than I trust myself."
Before I met him, I
listed everything I had done today.
"You decided after staying up all night, and then
did all this in the morning?"
"Yes."
"You know what?
Once Junga decides on something,
she’s faster than anyone from that point on?"
"Am I?"
I laughed at him
for noticing that about me.
"But... it was something you’d worried over so much,
so how did you manage to decide overnight?"
"Actually...
I woke up yesterday after yelling, right?"
"Yeah. Because you had a nightmare, right?"
"Yes.
Of all the nightmares I’ve had so far,
that one was the worst."
"What was it about?"
"You were being affectionate with another woman,
holding hands, kissing her, and
going on a date with her.
Even in my dream, that spot was supposed to be mine,
so why was there another woman there?
I was so sad, and so angry,
I couldn’t control my emotions.
So I woke up yelling."
"... So that was really what made you decide...?"
"After I woke up, I thought about it.
I should be the one by your side, Hoonji.
I can’t even stand the thought of another woman being there."
As soon as he finished listening to me,
he started laughing.
"I’m telling you about a horrible nightmare,
so why are you laughing like this?"
"Right...
now that I think about it, this isn’t something to laugh about.
When I was begging and persuading you like that,
you didn’t budge at all...
and now you’ve decided because of one dream?"
"I...
thought there was a line we shouldn’t cross
between us.
So I was always cautious and anxious.
I was worried about my future with Hoonji too...
but the moment I saw someone next to you in real life,
I decided I had to cross
the line I’d been so afraid of."
After I confessed to him,
I’m still worried just the same.
But,
trusting the feelings he’s shown me until now,
and holding on to my own feelings, which
had never changed no matter how hard I tried,
we decided to cross the line.
-The End-
