2. Meeting

02:12 AM

Around 2 a.m., I received a text message from an unknown number.

문자

If you remember who I am, I want to meet you.

I intuitively thought it was Kim Taehyung.

After exchanging a few texts, we decided to meet the next day.

A mixture of excitement and a little fear kept me from sleeping well, but I was filled with anticipation for my reunion with Taehyung.

Actually, I can't remember much of what happened with Kim Taehyung.

It's been so many years, I can barely remember his face.

The guy I saw yesterday is walking over there.

The distance between us narrowed, and when our eyes met, I didn't know what to say.

Hello, heroine. Do you remember who I am?

A low, yet comfortable voice. For a moment, it felt like all the tension in my body was released.

여주

Yeah, I remember you.

Taehyung smiled faintly, and I smiled back.

We went into a nearby cafe and started talking.

김태형

Wow, it's been years since we last saw each other. It's been so long.

김태형

How have you been?

여주

Yeah, I've been good. How have you been?

I remember we were really close, but it felt uncomfortable to only exchange formal greetings like this.

Also, I couldn't remember the past, and I felt uneasy for some reason.

김태형

Well, I wasn't doing well. Thanks to someone leaving without saying a word.

For a moment, my heart sank.

It seemed like unknown expressions were passing through my head.

김태형

Do you remember the old days?

여주

Actually, I don't know what happened with you or what you're saying.

김태형

Then I'd rather not have known.

I couldn't understand why Taehyung was suddenly acting like this.

When I made a serious expression, Taehyung snickered cutely and said.

김태형

From now on, do you want to find out?

I nodded, and at that moment, it started snowing.

Wow. Taehyung turned his head at my exclamation.

김태형

Snow, I guess you still like it.

여주

Yeah! It's white, and the crunchy sound is nice. Just looking at it makes me feel good. Don't you like snow?

김태형 image

김태형

Well, I don't like it when the snow melts and disappears.

Taehyung finished speaking and smiled in an unknown way.

김태형

So, don't disappear anymore.

I wasn't sure who he was talking to, but I looked him in the eye and answered.
