Memories

"It's okay Claire, don't be sad" Hyujin said as he smiles gently to little Claire and wiped her tears

Claire looked at him and pouted

"How can you say that? You said that we will be together forever?"

Hyujin laughed silently and caress her hair

"You sounded like you want me forever" Hyujin said and smiled

He can't resist the charm of little Claire but he looks surprised when she suddenly said,

"I WANT YOU"

How come you said something like that? He feels like he's going to take responsibility.

He patted her head and begun to move closer

"Claire.."

The little girl looked at him with confusion. Then he decided to take a deep breathe and kissed her in her forehead

It was the first time he did it and he felt like it would be the last moment. He looked at little Claire and sadly smiled.

"Claire, I will.." before he finished his sentence his dad suddenly called his name from a far

"I need to go, see you tomorrow!" he said with a smile and turned around, then left. He never knew that after he left, little Claire was flustered with his kiss.

"Idiot" little Claire whispered as she touched her forehead.

After 12 years..

"Woah, you looked like a human" Claire's brother teased as he saw her walking infront of him to get her sandals.

Hah. Look who's talking?

Claire wanted to throw her sandals at him but she remained calm.

"Shut up" Claire just commented

"How rude, you won't able find a boyfriend with that kind of attitude" he said and continue to drink his soda

You piece of shit

"Oh yeah? how about you? You don't even get a girlfriend on your own"She talked back to him

As If I wanted to stay defeated by your words you little ass

"What?" he asked while looking furious

"oh? Did I crack the code?" I asked and he was about to approach me as if he wants to eat me alive

Tch. You said it first, I only talked back

"What is the fuss about?" my older sis came with a broom in her hand

"THIS SHIT/BITCH, TOLD ME THAT I WON'T GET A BOYFRIEND/GIRLFRIEND!" we both said in unison with our fingers pointed to each other

Sis looked a bit surprised and laughed

"What the hell? Then try to get one, what's the problem with that?" she asked

"Easy for you to say" we both said and then she laughed again

I looked at my brother, well he doesn't look bad, however his attitude is a trash.

"Darn, You two are goodlooking, why does it sound so hard? " She asked but we didn't answer.

She suddenly sits on the sofa with crossed arms

"No worries, I'll arrange it for you both" she said and winked at us

Oh.no. don't tell me

I looked at my brother and to my surprise he also looked at me

Are you thinking what I'm thinking?

My brother's expression is saying like

Don't tell me..

"Ah, sis I almost forgot, I think I got band practice on weekends" He said which made her raised her eyebrow

"Oh? reschedule"

No escape dude, goodbye!

"But.."

Before he continues to talk she looked at me

"Ah I need to go now, bye!" I said and hurriedly grab my pouch and went outside

whew. that was a close call

At the moment she arrived..

--------

I looked around and just decided to look for desserts and then suddenly called out my name which made me turned around

"Woah Claire, you look dashing" Florence said while smiling

"You too" I said then she acted like being shy

"Care for desserts?"she asked and I nodded

After a few talks, eating desserts, and joining to some activities, I decided to went home and to my surprise everyone was not there and just left a note saying they went to my relatives home to prepare for the upcoming reunion

Sigh

I was supposed to open the door but then I noticed someone familiar beside our apartment

"Hyujin.." I whispered

For how many years..

I felt surprised when he suddenly looked at my direction and smiled.

Even though its been 12 yrs, I still like the way he smiles

I was supposed to call him out but then sadly smiled when I realized the fact that he forget about me

Hyujin.. This is unfair

I just looked from behind

This is..

I clinched my fist and suddenly felt pain in my chest

Why...

There are some questions that I want to ask but I feel like I'm losing an energy. So,

I decided to head inside the apartment with a sigh

Morning came
