Chapter 7's
Busan, Bu Yong Road Roof House 8-11, July 5, 2002…
“What is this?” da In asked with a frown.
“I, this..gift.”.
With his head lowered to hide his nervousness, Min Hyuk in his High School uniform answered the question of the big glasses girl before him.
“Gift?” Again, Da In asked in wonder
while looking at the small box that had been held earlier.
“Ki, we dated exactly a month before
your birthday so, it's a gift from me. Happy birthday, Brother.”
Da In who was older than him looked
smile amusedly before then, opening
the little box and made it
looking back with both eyes enlarged on the man in front of him who was smiling sipu.
“Sorry, I lied by saying I was going to study for an exam. Actually for two weeks I worked part-time to buy you a present. I don't want to put aside my allowance. Because of the money I got from my parents so, same
I just asked them for money. That
maybe not much but..hmph!”
It was as if Min Hyuk's world came to a halt when a gentle kiss landed on his lips and severed all sentences. Just for a moment
however, being able to make both eyes wide open because it was so shocked by the actions of the girl who was now smiling cheerfully.
“Seo Min Hyuk, I love you,” Da In said before hugging her tightly.
“Ka, sister. Is this okay?” ask
Min Hyuk was nervous.
Clearly visible, Min Hyuk gulped after Da In shook his head briefly and made him dare to return his embrace.
“Min Hyuk, just this time there is a man who can drown me in his arms.”
Hurrying, Min Hyuk took off his embrace, then clasped both arms of Da In who was spontaneously staring at him.
“Why removed? You don't like me hugging?” ask Da In.
“Not,” said Min Hyuk while shaking his head
short, “you can't breathe because
I return your embrace?” added worry.
“I can breathe, it's just that my hands can't circle well in your body. Hahaha...” said Da In and made Min Hyuk's forehead wrinkle while looking at him seriously, “why?” he added that is still half amused.
“From now on, I'll diet. I will be the best man for you,” said Min Hyuk firmly.
“Mmm..I will not forbid you to go on a diet or anything. As long as you are with me, I will not care about anything else,” Da In said sincerely.
“I promise I will diet for you,” said Min Hyuk excitedly.
“Do that for yourself and never do anything for others or for the sake of
pleasing them. You also have to be happy before you make others happy. Understand?” obviously Da In while smiling sweetly and accompanied by a nod of Min Hyuk, “this pair. Suppose we formalize the relationship now,” he added.
“Thank you, Min Hyuk.”
”I love you, Da In.”

***Nam*, Seoul, Yoo Shin Five Floor Apartment, May 25, 2016**…
“Hey, why did you press the bell like..”.
BYUR!
“Ibuuu..”.
Da In's nagging instantly came to a halt along with his screams as a bucket of water hit his face, and made him spontaneously close his eyes. He sighed in annoyance after feeling his entire body wet, before then opening his eyes with a reddened face and clearly seeing the figure that was standing in front of the door of his apartment that night.
“You...” he said with both hands clenched.
“So, it's the fifth week you're clamoring? Can't you see the inscription on my door? I've asked all the neighbors politely not to make a noise, and given you a chance to also warn in a very good way. But, this was more than enough,” the nagging Joo Hyuk searaya stared coldly.
“You wait here. Wait here!” da In's command heavily suppressed his sentence with a quivering voice.
He walked quickly to the kitchen and grabbed a bucket of dishwashing water. Then ran small, back to the main door and immediately poured water from the bucket right into Joo Hyuk's face. Instantly, the man's face flushed red with trembling lips.
With the pressure of holding back his annoyance, he rubbed his face before opening his closed eyes. He who looked increasingly chaotic after sighing loudly and seeing a fish bone attached to his shirt was staring intently at the woman before him.
“You...really want to die in my hands,” said Joo Hyuk with firmer jaws.
Slowly, he steps into Da In's apartment after throwing a bucket in his hand and making the Automotist walk backwards.
“Ka, what do you want?” asked Da In who suddenly felt nervous.
BRACKET!
Joo Hyuk kicked hard at the apartment door after going deeper.
“If you mess around, I'll scream. Or, people will..kyaaaa!”.
Da In's sentence instantly came to a halt as the still-silent Joo Hyuk suddenly pulled out his hand and hugged her tightly.
“Ka, you..lep..pask ak...” said Da In who tried to push him.
“I'll let go if you calm down,” whispered Joo Hyuk who further tightened his embrace, “I'm not a cheap man who will do this carelessly,” back he whispered softly, “kau? That's why I never believed it when they said that you also died on the spot,” he added which now sounded a little worried and immediately made Da In weaken before finally falling silent.
“Do you know who I am?” whispered Da In with two teary eyes.
Feeling Da In who now looked calmer, he slowly let go of his embrace and stared fixedly at the girl before him as he shook his head slowly.
“I don't know who you are. I only know that you are a person that Cha Hyuk Jae loves very much,”, said Joo Hyuk sincerely.
Suddenly, Da In sat down limp and stared coldly at Joo Hyuk who immediately crouched down.
“You who?!” shouted Da In riled, “who are you? Say!!!” back he screamed along with all the fear that made him seem lost direction.
It was like a sweet dream for a moment when the thing I believed all along became
veracity. Da In who I have been paying attention to for the past five weeks is Little Sister Ipar who I have been really looking for all this time. But, uh,
the dream turned into a very bad dream as he went berserk and sobbed.
Although I know for sure, there was something strange that happened to him after the accident because he didn't know me. Until finally, tired of running all over his body that broke out in cold sweat before then he fell unconscious.
I don't know what he's been through yet, a huge question mark is now ingrained in my mind about the events of six years ago…
