Just let me love you

Episode 2 | 7 Years Ago and Now_ I'm Back Again

When I'm almost done erasing you from my memories

You appeared before me again.

Become a full-fledged adult,

Just like that time_ held me.

"Just Let Me Love You"_ Episode 2

In a hall crowded with people, when each person gathers here and there and talks

I got to see you,

차여주

······.

At the same time, I couldn't even say anything.

김태형

······Ms. Cha Yeo-ju.

Today felt like it was going to be a wonderful day. For no particular reason, I just felt good. I even liked the air I was breathing.

"Ladies and gentlemen, our flight will arrive at our destination in two minutes. We hope you have a pleasant journey, thank you."

" Ladies and gentlemen, our flight will arrive at its destination in two minutes. I hope you have a good trip, thank you."

Even though my ears were still ringing due to the pressure, I couldn't help but smile when I heard the announcement that the plane was due to land.

Really, really, it was the day I had been waiting for.

Before moving around in a hurry, take a moment to look around the spacious interior of the airport and exclaim inwardly in admiration.

Rrrrrrrrrr.

The bag I was carrying began to vibrate.

차여주

- Yes, hello?

김지수

- Have you arrived in Korea?

차여주

- Yeah, just now.

김지수

- Would you like me to send a taxi to the airport?

차여주

- No, it's okay.

차여주

- Where did you say the wedding hall was? Please send me the address.

···

Sweet classical music fills the magnificent hall, and soft yellow lights fill the ceiling. The place is unusually filled with people dressed up in finery.

People wearing colorful hanbok that covers the tips of their feet,

People in neat, colorless suits,

Even people who wear clothes that highlight their own unique personalities.

Today_ So

차여주

Can I ask where the bridal waiting room is?

My one and only friend_ It's the day I meet someone who will walk the rest of my life with me and promise a future.

···

차여주

······oh my god.

김지수

Oh my, you're really early.

When I stepped into your presence with a fluttering step, you greeted me in a dazzling white dress. I was quite taken aback by your awkward appearance.

차여주

...You're really getting married, my friend.

김지수

Okay, I'll go before you.

김지수

By the way_ Aren't you tired?

김지수

You came on a plane early in the morning.

차여주

I'm fine_

김지수

Where did you leave your luggage?

차여주

Oh, I left it at the hotel desk in this building.

김지수

Ah_h

차여주

You look really happy today?

김지수

Yeah, good_ A day like today should be goodㅎ

It would be nice if it were good, but

차여주

Once you get married, you'll have fewer days to see my face.

I couldn't find the words to describe the strange emotions that enveloped my heart. Sadness_Relief_Pleasure_ Anyway, I had many complicated and subtle thoughts about saying goodbye to a friend I'd spent so much time with.

김지수

You just have to keep in touch more often, right?

김지수

Oh, you're going to be in Korea now?

차여주

Yeah, that's what I was going to do.

차여주

Living abroad for 7 years is enough, I can't do it anymore_ㅎ

Even though the conversation was short, I realized that people would soon flock here, so I said no.

차여주

Ah, I'll go in first_

차여주

See you later-

김지수

Yeah, haha

I squeezed through the crowd of people busy greeting each other, went as far forward as I could, and sat down.

차여주

One o'clock wedding...

It's now past 12:30. There's a generous 30 minutes left.

It looks quite spacious, so I thought I'd take a look around.

The moment I stood up with that determination_

"Cha Yeo-ju······."

A low, familiar yet unfamiliar voice called my name from behind me.

I turned around without any doubt, and the person standing in front of me was none other than_

김태형

······.

It was you.

김태형

······ha.

I didn't want to believe it. I hoped it was a dream. If it were true, if the person I was seeing was real,

I felt like I couldn't do anything.

It didn't take long for my mind to go blank and I couldn't hear anything. Time seemed to have stopped, and you stood before me, your eyes blank and blank.

We stared at each other for a while, without saying a word - I was in your eyes. Before long, clear tears welled up in the corners of my eyes, blurring my vision.

김태형

······Cha Yeo-ju.

김태형

No... no... no...

김태형

No... how could I... without my older sister...

Your appearance now is starting to overlap with your appearance from 7 years ago_

As forgotten memories came back to me, the sound of my heartbeat gradually began to ring in my ears.

I couldn't say anything and just turned around_

My wrist was wrapped by someone's hand, and my steps were once again tied.

김태형

Miss Cha Yeo-ju.

차여주

···Taehyung.

That was the only thing I managed to say with great difficulty.

차여주

Sorry.

After saying that, I took your hand that was holding my wrist and put it down.

In my anxiety, I just held on to the strap of the crossbody bag slung over my shoulder until it was worn out.

I didn't have the confidence to see you anymore. So I_ once again,

You who are trying to catch me_

Just like before_

I ended up avoiding it.

++ Thank you for the 1st place🤍 It's a position that I'm not worthy of, but I understand that the readers want me to work harder in the future_ I'll work hard😌 Have a nice day🤍
