The next sunrise:)
"Min, I have urgent work. Can you attain with me?" Mi-Sun exchanged her words as she had make her way to the University.
"I wish I could be of any help but I am presently taken over by bothering situation in my house. I'm sorry," everything went black in her head as all of her friends rejected her requests but there was a way because she didn't ask Jin-Ae for it, somewhere she was grabbed with unpredictable things. "Let's give it a try," she gathered her courage and dialled her number.
"Jin-Ae, your phone?" Ji-Hoon shouted out from the dining room as he was having his breakfast.
But no comeback from her side so finally adding some strength to stand up from there to answer the call. "I hate to answer her calls and now who's it? Intelligent bird? Seriously what kind of name she had saved this number. Such a weirdo," Ji-Hoon let out some giggles at her contact name but soon forwarded his hand to push over the screen to answer.
"Jin-Ae, please I need your help. Come with me to the University. Please don't say no, please!!!" as soon as she came to know that she picked up her call, without listening to his words from the flip side, she huffed out of annoyance.
Widening his eyes, he froze on his spot when he seemed to recognise her voice and stayed silent for a couple of minutes.
"Hello? Jin-Ae answer me?"
"Oh My God, it feels so good to take a warm shower in the morning," I uttered after getting out of the shower but searching for my phone, made me annoyed, with a sudden hit I realised that it was in the living room. "So stupid of me," and walked to grab my phone from there but soon something stopped me when I saw him talking on the phone.
"S-he is b-u-s-y -" he was cut off in mid when I approached him. Unknown to the fact, he was conserving with Mi-Sun, I snatched my phone from his grip but his expression could gather my attention but before that, I looked at the screen and with casual knowing I looked at him.
"What happened?" I tried my best not to sound off. "Can you come with me to the University, I have to commit an important work, please don't say no," Mi-Sun couldn't pay attention to him as she was standing out in public due to that noise, she didn't recognise his voice.
"Fine, I am coming up," with those last wording of mine, I hung up the call.
"Brother?" I diverted my worthy attention to him who was kinda sad over the happening but I didn't know this would come up in fact.
"I'm alright, have your breakfast," I knew it was over a couple of years, he heard her voice and adding to this fact I was also aware that he still had a soft corner for her, a relationship that stayed for ages couldn't die just in some time of year's, they were more like a best friend at first and it sounds good to all that becoming lover after being in friendship. But cruel reality made us face the world with hatred, jealously and greed.
Past to noon:)
"I'm so glad that you helped me otherwise I would have to do this alone," Mi-Sun appreciated her help in this time when she was scared to go alone to that place which not only hurt her feelings but more like insisted her to commit any wrongdoings.
"I'm all here for you. Whenever you need help you can count on me," I casually cupped her cheeks but her utterances over that happening in the morning took me out of my world with joy. "Who was on the call in the morning I didn't understand properly?" "Ah, she was my aunt," tightening my grip around her hand. "Let's go now and have a good time in a cafe," I came with a suggestion to her, to which she shook her head in agreement.

"I am on my way, Sir," Sung-Ho hurriedly made big steps to attend the meeting of teachers but today he got late due to some reason. Fate played an important in their lives, being apart from each other but their heart always beat for each other.
In an instant, the whole world of both of them turned, as if the winds also began to see their direction, the swirls also seemed as if the colour of that swoon had become swamped.
I was so lost in that moment when the person whom I loved, was lost in my eyes too.
Everything before that got blurred vision when the view in front was much more beautiful.
"So long to see you, Miss Jin-Ae," he was the best thing that ever happened to me, falling in love with him but his voice caught me out of my fantasy world and loaded my all attention towards him however I was not over his facial features, I could watch him for my whole life. That pointed nose, brown eyes, his fluffy locks, pink lips just everything about him was love for me. I was smiling like a fool as long as Mi-Sun hit me on the shoulder, I looked at her angrily and tried to scare her with big eyes, but everything fell in front of him. So I just pressed my lips into a thin line before I could gather some courage to look into his eyes.
"How are you?" I didn't know what to go for because all my attention was on my beating heartbeats, they were on the max level. It was as if my heart was about to stop beating and it all was worthy to happen because my love was standing in front of me.
"I am good. By the way, what are you doing nowadays?" Sung-Ho voice, such an angelic sound to my ears was not more than soothing music to me.
"I am a writer," he knew her profession but something was needed to ask because, for the first time after graduating from University, it was not like he would ignore his love.
"Oh, I wish you two end up being together," Mi-Sun prayed to God, as she lived the moments when she sacrificed both her best friend as well as her lovers just in a moment of seconds.
"Sorry but I need to go to a meeting currently, will meet you next time," these were the last words, he whispered before disappearing from her sight.
"Shit, his meeting," I roughly cursed that meeting inside my head but I smiled after seeing him and my heart would be happy to see it's a heartbeat.
"Let's go my heroine," Mi-Sun muttered and teased her for a minute but it was so fast of her to take her phone and take his picture even though his back was visible to her insight.
"What is the use of this picture when you couldn't see his face?" Mi-Sun raised an obvious question. "I just need him in my phone, not his face and this is his first picture on my phone." " Alright, Let's go."
"For the first time, I'm so satisfied that I got late for University otherwise seeing her would not have occurred to me," Sung-Ho was mumbling romantically to himself before entering into the meeting room. For the whole time, he smiled continuously for the same reason.
"Why are smiling so much? Are you coming here after meeting somebody special?" Moon, his colleague who was more like a brother to him, knew about him, liking Jin-Ae but Sung-Ho asked him to keep it under the sheets because he didn't wish for troubles.
"Stop it," he slightly hit his arm but Moon noticed that his cheeks got a shade of red colour. "Blushing, aww," he was such a tease whenever it came to him.
"Alright, that's all about this meeting, You may leave," an instruction from the Principal echoed in the room. "C'mon let's go out in the cafeteria," he was in a good mood so Sung-Ho advised him to move towards Cafeteria.
"Alright, finally my bro saw his love after ages. I'm happy for you. I wish the best for you," at first, Moon was teasing him but the words after were from his heart, he knew the burden he had in the name of family.
His father was a military man so it was rare that he showed home for a bit longer than just one week of holidays. So, from the beginning, his shoulder carried the responsibility of his mother.
He nodded.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"Mi-Sun, don't mind my words but I wanna ask you something?" I wanted to make everything clear between her and my brother.
"Go for it," Mi-Sun was busy with her favourite drink but it was not too long when she noticed her face, more like pleading ones.
"Are you still in love with him?" It made her stopped by taking a sip of juice, and casually looked at her. "Can you forget Sung-Ho even after he isn't yours?"
"It's not the case but you know that he is married right now and anything more it's just I want to listen to what your heart says," everything seemed the same when they parted their ways, she was still not over him even after knowing that he kinda cheated on her. "What if I say yes, I am still in love with him?" I was taken back by her wording because never in ages had I expected this from her. I thought that she would hate him instead because he didn't tell her that he was getting married soon. I cleared my throat before letting out any word against her feelings. "You know that he can't be yours now because Ari likes him, and I wish if you can understand the situation," I never wished to see her hurt again due to him because might be she was avoiding the fact but in the end, she would be the one to cry.
"I guess I am done with your date. Thank you," Mi-sun threw her hands in the air and soon left the place, she nearly shed a tear thinking the same thing again.
"LISTEN, I DON'T WANT YOU TO GET HURT, PLEASE TRY TO UNDERSTAND FOR ONCE," I shouted as loud I could but she didn't spare a glance in my direction.
"I love him, just because he isn't with me that doesn't mean my love for him died," Mi-Sun mumbled in a broken voice because she understood she just circumvented the fact that Jin-Ae was trying to make her understand the same, Mi-Sun was known that he couldn't come back to her but her love stood more for Ji-Hoon.
"I'm sorry but I can't stop loving him even if I end up getting hurt again."
