The summer I met you
The Summer I Met You 01



The bustling city, the city where people go about their daily lives without a moment to wake up, filled my eyes again today.

Even the early summer day started without a moment to get bored.

Today, I woke up a full 30 minutes early and was in a good mood on my way to work! Perhaps it was because I was in such a good mood that I thought I'd buy some coffee and go.

Here it is~

조여름
thank you

Perhaps because of the part-timer's refreshing impression and voice, I had no doubt that today would be a 100% pleasant day. And then, just as I was leaving the cafe,

Chook - !


조여름
ah…!

???
!! I'm sorry, are you okay?

조여름
Ah... that... it's okay

???
Oh.. I'm really sorry..

I bumped into someone I hadn't seen before.

The positive thoughts I had just seconds ago were crushed by the coffee that poured out.


???
I'm sorry... I...!

조여름
…………

???
Uh.. jo.. summer..?

And when I raised my head, I felt something that was neither here nor there. No, what was this feeling in the first place? Was I feeling that emotion at that time?

It's hard to see your face, but I can't say it's longing, and I want to run to you with a smile right now, but it's not a feeling of guilt.


조여름
taehyoung kim…


김태형
Yeah, how have you been, Summer?

조여름
I'm fine..

"I've been well." Those words were hard to utter. Whenever I looked at Kim Taehyung, it was always like this. I couldn't lie even once.

How have you been? Of course, I've been waiting and hoping for our reunion for so long. Thinking about that day always keeps me up at night, longing for you.


조여름
How have you been?


김태형
Me, it's always the same


김태형
By the way, are you feeling better now?

Those words stabbed my heart. I wondered if you, too, yearned for the past, just like I did. My eyes stung for no reason.


+
Oh, I'll clean it, sir!

It was a moment when the scent of intense longing permeated the air. Recalling the past wasn't necessarily a happy memory, so I nearly shed tears.

Yeah, until the part-timer came between us and cleared the coffee away.


조여름
Ah! I'm late for work!


김태형
Hey? It's not a big deal. I'll give you a ride.

조여름
..You're like this, it reminds me of my high school days.


김태형
… .That’s right haha, I gave you a ride back then too, right?

조여름
huh..

It was definitely like that back then, too. My first meeting with you.



How could I forget this day?


조여름
Oh my gosh! It's too late!
