CHARACTER : EunJu and Yoo Seung Ho
[EUNJU POV]
We been apart since 2 years ago. He is my first cousin, first friend and first love! Today he will be back here after 2 years spending his time at SEOUL with his family. I miss him a lot! He rarely replies my email because he was too busy with his school activities.
“I never thought that you will wait for me here.” Someone shout from a far. He was wearing a cute rabbit scarf on his hair and was waving at me. I looked at that person for a while because he was wearing a same scarf like what I give to Seung Ho before I recognize him as Seung Ho.
“Oppa!” I smile widely after he reaches at me.
“You’re forgetting me right?” he asked me while playing with my long hair.
“No I’m not!” I refuse to tell him that I really can’t remember his face now. He looks more handsome than before.
“Why did you wear it? You’re the one who said that thing was the ugly thing that I ever give you.”
“That’s why I was wearing this nonsense rabbit scarf. So you can recognize me.”
“Bla bla bla..” I was babbling to myself. Just want to make him mad.
“Okay, I’m sorry because saying that. You know what? There’s a girl who give me this lollipop because she think I’m cute.This might because of your rabbit scarf.”
I laugh and he just smirk at me. “At least this thing..” Seung Ho show me the rabbit scarf “..make me always think about you and make you remember who am I.”
“Remember me?” I asked him and he blushed.
“Ye.. Yeah. Because of this I always remember you.” Seung Ho stutters while saying that and didn’t want to look at me.
“Whatever. So how did you know I‘m here?”
“Your mom. You should at least wait me at house, why would you’re waiting for me here? Don’t you scare being here alone at this time?” Seung Ho refers to his watch. It’s already 9pm and I was standing alone at the playground in front of my house.
“ Nope.”
“Or you’re waiting for someone?” he stared at me like I was doing something wrong to him.
“Waiting for someone? HAHA! What are you saying?”
“ Never mind. Come on, let’s go home.”
“I don’t want. Treat me ice-cream.”
“Always with our ice cream, even posting an ice cream picture for me.” Seung Ho babbling by himself.
“Treat me!”
“Okay, by one condition.” He smirks at me.
‘There must be something evil on his mind.’
“Hmm.”
“Do you miss me?”
‘That’s his condition or what?’ I asked myself. He look at other place while I’m thinking about the answer. Then I pinch my cheek because of that. ‘LOL. Why did I need to think about it? Of course I miss him. But why should I say the truth to him?’
“YAH! You’re daydreaming again.” He shouts at me after a while.
“Sorry. I just.. you know.. confused about your question..” I talk slowly. Don’t know if he hears or not.
“HAHA.. So funny. Let’s go home. No more ice cream. Arasou?!” he told me and I sigh.
‘What did I do? I want ice cream.’ Seung Ho already infront of my gate house but I still standing like a doll there. Waiting until he looked at me, then I just walk away to the ice cream store. Just want to make him know where I’m going.
‘What did I care if he don’t want to buy me an ice cream? I can buy it by myself.’
“ Yes, sweetie. Like usual?” ahjusshi ask me and I smiled.
I always come to the ice cream store every day after I end my class. Sometimes I just sit there and doing my homework.
“Here you go.” ahjusshi give me a chocolate ice cream.
“Komawo ahjusshi.”
“YAH! I told you to go home right?” Seung Ho shout at me for the second time right after he enter the ice cream store. But I just ignore him and trying to take a look at the ice cream picture.
“New customer! Do you want to order anything?” ahjusshi ask Seung Ho but Seung Ho keep staring at me.
‘Why did he mad at me? I just want to eat ice cream? Is that a criminal?’
“EunJu come on. Let’s go home.” Seung Ho ask me after I done eating my ice cream.
“Ahjusshi, I want vanilla ice cream this time.” I said without reply anything to Seung Ho.
“Okay.”
“EunJu you will sick if eat too much ice cream at this time. It’s okay ahjusshi, save it for the next time. Come on.” Seung Ho hold my hand and bring me back to my house. I don’t know why but after he hold my hand I only can stared at him.After reach home, I come back to my own world. Push Seung Ho hand and run to my room.
“EunJu-ahh.” Seung Ho call me from downstairs but I refuse to answer.

[SEUNG HO POV]
Next day, I wake up late because I can’t sleep last night thinking about EunJu. Did he mad at me? I just wanna play with her while I’m here.
“Morning Seung-shii” EunJu mom great me.
“Morning. Where’s EunJu?”
“She’s not here? Maybe at playground. ”
“Thanks.” I said to EunJu mom and rushing to the playground. But I can’t find EunJu anywhere. Then I heard someone cough at the back of a big tree.
“There you are.” I smile cutely and sit beside her. But no respond from her.
“Look, I still wearing your rabbit scarf.” I said to her. Still no respond.
She closed her laptop and walking away from me to an ice cream store. She enters the store with a sad face.
‘Did she mad at me?’
“Ahjusshi, last night I can’t get my vanilla ice cream. Can you give me double ice cream today? I‘m so hungry.”
“Okay dear.”
“Ahjusshi, last night I didn’t pay for my ice cream. How much should I pay?” EunJu asked the ahjusshi. From far I just smirk. She didn’t know I was the one who pay the ice cream.
“Your boyfriend already pay it for you. Right rabbit boy?” the ahjusshi ask me all of sudden.
“He not my boyfriend. He just someone who stay at my house for a while and he will go back to SEOUL anytime.”
“Ahjusshi can I have the same order as her?” said me and take place beside her.
“Do you mad at me?” I asked.
“You think?” she answer.
“How should I know? I’m sorry.”
“Keep your sorry for other time. I have no interest with it.”
She gets up from her sit and goes to the counter
“Ahjusshi, thanks for today ice cream. Here the money. I‘ll be going first.”
“Thanks dear. Take care of yourself.”

[EUNJU POV]
I wake up so early in the morning to make sure Seung Ho didn’t babbling at me.
“Mom, I’m going first.”
“YAH! It still early. Stay here for a while.” Mom said.
“But mom..”
“Eat your breakfast first.”
I try to eat my breakfast as fast as I can. My mom make a bread toast today with chocolate milk. I like to drink chocolate milk every morning.“I’m done! Get going first. Annyeong mom.”
“Why so fast? Take care of yourself.”
“I will.”
While walking alone the road. I feel like spinning around. My head hurts so much. It becomes more hurt in a second. I can’t even control it. Because it was to hurt I was holding myself to the wall. I want to walk but my body is shaking because of my headache.
Out of my mind, I try to cross the road. Trying my best to walk and go to the nearest clinic. I feel like someone was holding my hand make me shocked.
“Yah, who are you? Let go of me.” I try to look at ‘the person’ who holding my hand but it seems so blurr.
“What are you trying to do?” he shout at me like I was at the other side of road and he at another side.
“Seung Ho? Leave me alone! I don’t need you here.” I try to push him but the fact is he is tough than me.
“What do you care about me, huh? You only know how to get mad at me without reason. I’m tired of it!” for this time, I’m the one who shouted at him.
“Watch out!” Seung Ho shout as he saw a car was heading to both of them in the middle of road.

[SEUNG HO POV]
I was running as fast as I can to find EunJu before she reaches her school. Then I stop for a while because.. I saw EunJu was standing like a doll in the middle of street. I smile before I reach her hand.
“Yah, who are you? Let go of me.” She was shocked because of my suddenly act and trying to push my hand away.
“What are you trying to do?” I asked her and she just stared at me.
“Seung Ho? Leave me alone! I don’t need you here.” EunJu try to push me but the fact is she can’t.
“What do you care about me, huh? You only know how to get mad at me without reason. I’m tired of it!” for this time,EunJu the one who shouted at me.
But then I saw a car with high speed coming toward where we stand. I try to say something to EunJu but I know it will be trouble if I didn’t push her away. So I just hold her hand and push her into my hug. For a while, I was blushing by myself.
Right after the car gone, she pushes my body away from her.
“Yah! You stupid.” She saying and she also blushing by herself.
“I’m sorry but..” I try to say something but EunJu is holding my shoulder and her face look more pale than before.
“Are you okay?” I asked her. Concern about her. She nod and right after that, she fainted in front of me!

[SEUNG HO POV]
“Uhh.. Where am I?” EunJu asked herself after she wake up from her bed. She touch her head. It hurt.
“Already wake up?” I asked her after I enter the room with u cup of tea. But she just glare at me.
“You fainted yesterday. I’m sorry if the hug make you shocked. I just want to..” I try to explained about yesterday but I was blushed by myself.
‘Stupid me! Stop thinking about hugging her.’
“Ahh” that was onlyEunJu reply for me. Maybe she also think the same thing as me.
“..it because I want to save you from being crush by the car. I’m sorry.” I continue after a while.
“Hmm..” EunJu also trying to find the best word to day thank to Seung Ho but after Seung Ho give her the medicine, he rushing to go out.
“YAH! Wait.” EunJu shouted and I looked at her. In my mind, I just wanted her not to say anything about yesterday.
“Thanks about yerterday. You save me and your hug really make me blushed and forget about those thing.”
“REALLY?” I can’t believe what she say and she was smile as cutest as she can.
“Yes. Thanks a lot!” EunJu reply to me.
“Can I ask something?” I head to her and she nod.
“Do you.. Do you..” I try to asked her something like ‘Do you like me?’ but it does seem a good idea although I know she not mad at me anymore. But I really like her! A lot. Even since we were kids. I just like her more than other girl I ever met!
Then, yesterday incident filled up my mind again. What I can think now is hugging her!
“yes..??” EunJu looked at me with her question face?
“I just want to know if you.. you know..” again, I can’t continue my sentence before she wake up from her bed and come towards me.
“Yeah, I like you also.” EunJu whisper to my ear. Feel like I was dreaming, i can’t even get to face her and she already hug me. Really wonder how she was blushing while saying that to me.
“Thanks dear.”
