REMEMBER ME?...
part 61's
“Can you two stop?” Kiara cut Marsha's words while chuckling. For some reason, Kiara felt amused to see these two best friends.
She knew they were both very into debating, but the girl also realized something had changed in their debate. To be precise, they look like lovers who feel jealous because their partners idolize others besides themselves.
Hearing Kiara's words, the two then stopped and the atmosphere between the two was suddenly awkward. Seeing that, Kiara's smile grew even more. He knew his guess was right.
“So, should I congratulate you two?” ask Kiara.
The two then gawked at Kiara. They cleared their throat simultaneously and Marsha smiled with a red hue on her cheek. It seemed that neither Marsha nor Daren dared to dodge either. So that the two can only receive sincere congratulations from Kiara.
“Thank you,” said Marsha shyly.
“Hey, you should know how hard it is to wait for an answer from him. Aigo... This girl is really!” said Daren who made Kiara laugh again while for the umpteenth time, Marsha gave an upset look towards Daren.
Today, Kiara feels her problem is almost gone because the humor that Daren threw and the togetherness of the three of them made her unable to stop laughing. However, the girl also realized that happiness should not last this long.
Recalling her problem, Kiara fell silent again. Then the girl started crying, raising a big question mark over the heads of Marsha and Daren. But they did not dare to ask and wait for Kiara's cry to subside in Marsha's embrace.
“Hei, Kiara... Why are you crying?” ask Marsha softly. The girl gently stroked Kiara's hair, hoping it would stop her crying.
Then Kiara said it. Saying that the disease came back again and this time was even more severe. He may have died of this disease.
A moment later, the girl felt Marsha's embrace tighter on her. The girl hid her face on one of Kiara's shoulders, then she could feel Marsha's back shaking. Kiara can't see Daren's face, but the girl knows Daren also seems to be thinking about something. It's not usually that the guy's been quiet all this time.
Then after pawing together for a few minutes, Marsha raised her head slightly then whispered near her ear,
“All will be fine, Kiara. Everything will be fine.”
And those words made her cry again.
Because he knows that nothing is okay here.

Vano once again did not believe in the fact that he actually worked with Windy again in a different place, and under very different circumstances.
The girl was apparently really serious about helping him or teasing him by helping the designer team and not leaving him alone at all.
This was his second day at Gyeryongsan Mountain, and Vano still felt that Windy's existence here was a big mistake. One of his biggest mistakes. Well, maybe it's just his mind. In fact, most of the crew and staff seemed to enjoy their time with Windy.
The only time he could steal to avoid Windy was at lunch. On the first day, Vano accidentally takes his lunch ration and takes it to his hotel room to eat it there while avoiding contact with Windy.
Because to be honest, Vano no longer wants to hurt Kiara. And he took that thought deep into his mind.
Lunch this time was the same. Vano plans to take her lunch as far as possible from the shooting location if she can, she will take it to her room again to avoid Windy. But unlucky for him, it turns out Windy had already completed his task so suddenly the girl appeared before him with an extra plate of lunch.
“It. Your food. Let's eat together.”
Vano cursed inwardly before receiving the plate containing his lunch. He was caught off guard, and inevitably had to follow Windy's will.
Windy brought him to eat on a bench that was located under a large maple tree whose leaves had completely disappeared and changed with the white of snow that filled all branches and twigs. The girl patted the empty spot next to her as soon as she saw Vano flinching in place. A moment later, Vano ended up sitting next to Windy.
“How do I do?” windy asked as Vano had just fed a spoonful of food to his mouth.
“Entahlah. Good luck.” Said later.
“You know, I thought the whole team of designers liked me. They immediately made me the team leader and obeyed all my orders. I wonder, are they like this to the old chief as well? If not, isn't that good for me? Means they're more according to me—“
“Do not talk a no-no.” Cut Vano.
“They were happy when you came because you are a famous model, sober up! You can't even work as well as the absent team leader. And don't tell me he's the old chairman. Because you won't be the new chairman, Windy.”
Windy's stunned. This was the first time he had been scolded or criticized by someone. Thanks to his professionalism and perfectionism, he rarely received criticism or even dissatisfaction in the faces of people including photographers who took pictures. And now, he even got his first criticism from someone who had never even been angry or argued with him before, of course he was surprised.
“Hei... Why are you talking like that? I'm just—“
“Never say it again then. No matter you're just joking or whatever, don't ever say it again.” Cut Vano again. The man finished his last mouthful after successfully finishing almost his entire meal extra quickly, then stood up.
“I finished.” His words were short then turned back to Vano to step away.
Just a few meters away, Vano saw Brian running towards him like a doormat. When he got to his face, the man seemed to be stingy and white steam scattered around his nose and mouth.
“Yes! Where the hell have you been? I... Looking for you everywhere, you know?” said Brian. He paused his words for a moment to take a deep breath.
“Kiara. He's here now.”
“What?!” without further questioning, Vano then gave Sungyeol his empty plate and ran to the shooting location.
