The next day, the man really did buy sky blue hyacinths.
White was pretty, but sky blue was pretty too.
성운
“Isn’t the sky blue pretty? Do you see why I said I’d buy the sky blue?”
여주
“It’s definitely pretty.”
성운
“What, why is your answer so dry?”
여주
“No, that’s… the cherry blossoms over there are pretty…”
At those words, the old man turned his head towards the cherry tree I was pointing at with my finger.
The cherry blossoms looked even more beautiful because they were in full bloom.
The black night sky contrasting with the white petals made them shine even brighter.
A few petals falling down created a snow-like sight.
성운
“Pretty?”
여주
“Yes! Actually, I’ve always liked cherry blossoms.”
여주
“I always waited for the time when winter passed and spring came, when the cherry blossoms would bloom and fall like snow.”
여주
“I especially love the white cherry blossoms seen against the streetlights at night.”
여주
“Whenever I see that, my heart becomes at peace and I feel like all my worries in the world disappear.”
성운
“You are truly a person like a cherry blossom.”
여주
"why?"
성운
“The cherry blossom’s flower language is purity. It’s truly pure, without any impurities mixed in.”
성운
“That’s you. You are truly a pure person, without a single bad thing.”
성운
"and…"
성운
“…In my eyes, you are prettier than cherry blossoms.”
여주
"Sir, if you come in like that, it's against the rules! Seriously... I'm weak at this kind of thing..."
The old man smiles brightly, as if he understands my feelings.
성운
“It’s true. I like Yeoju more than cherry blossoms.”
여주
“I like you more than cherry blossoms.”
When I was young, the only thing I liked better than cherry blossoms was my mom...
I'm just amazed that you've already become this kind of person to me.
성운
“But if you like the cherry blossoms in Yeoju, should I plant a cherry blossom tree in my yard?”
성운
“Cherry blossoms that remain in full bloom all year round and fluttering their petals.”
여주
“Are you going to use your superpowers again and overdo it? I told you to only use them when you’re working….”
성운
“It’s mine, so I can use it whenever I want.”
여주
“Even if you do it anyway, I will decline.”
여주
“The reason we value something is because it is limited, right?”
여주
“If it were really something that could be easily found anywhere, its value would disappear.”
여주
“Isn’t it because not many people like expensive diamonds?”
여주
“In a way, the reason I like and cherish you is”
여주
“Because you are the only one of your kind in this world.”
여주
“The same goes for cherry blossoms. They’re even more special because you can only see them in April.”
여주
“If I could just wait and see it all the time, that specialness would disappear.”
성운
“Wow… really….”
성운
“That’s right….”
I tilted my head, not knowing what he meant.
Then the old man chuckled and said.
성운
“You idiot, you’re a genius.”
성운
“I knew you were a genius from the beginning, but... you really could write a poem.”
여주
“You clearly said I was an idiot, but what does it mean to call me a genius?”
여주
“But did you know that I was a genius in some way?”
성운
“What I like.”
성운
“Even though you are a spirit, you still love me.”
성운
“From the beginning… until now.”
성운
“I think you’ve seen a good man.”
여주
“What are you talking about? There are so many better men in this world.”
성운
“Is that so? So you don’t like me? Am I not a good guy?”
여주
“You’re a good man, aren’t you?”
성운
“I think there’s a hidden meaning in those words?”
여주
“Yes!”
성운
“Are you saying that with a smile…?”
The old man's lips stuck out like a beak, as if he was upset again.
Seriously... At times like this, you really are a baby.
여주
“Sir, I have to listen to the Korean until the end, right?”
He turned his head to meet my gaze and said.
When I smiled faintly, the old man turned his head away from me, feeling embarrassed.
여주
“He’s a good guy, isn’t he? But to me, you’re a better and more special man than anyone else.”
At those words, the old man's face turned red with embarrassment and he lowered his head to hide it.
여주
“Is it true?”
성운
“Don’t get too carried away either. I can’t handle it either.”
It would be so embarrassing for you, sir
To me, the old man who just hung his head and grumbled was just cute.
여주
“It’s so cute when you’re embarrassed, uncle.”
성운
“It’s not cute at all. It’s just embarrassing.”
여주
“It looks cute to me. It’s nice to look at, but what is it?”
성운
“Oh, seriously, don’t say things like that…”
Eventually, the old man left. He must have felt quite embarrassed.
여주
"Sir, shall we take a walk today? The cherry blossoms are so pretty."
