The streets 82a08a65c1 were decorated 5cfbdc99e9 in preparation 1488209f0e for the 10d3120d34 end of 99113457c3 the year. Little light bulbs flashed d27cbecaf0 on the trees around 2fa1cee2f8 the department stores.

Sitting in the passenger 4dcf083bc3 seat of JaeOn’s car, 2ecd38066f Daon looked at the 9271bfd91e scenery outside the window 2e461bcf91 with indifferent eyes. She didn’t feel like 81dd198843 celebrating the end of 3d4820e5bd the year. The world seemed d5542c08d2 to have lost 3240463f63 its color. All she 9ea6d18a14 could see b2b98f9557 were the 03a45c98fb frowns on 467371712f people’s faces 2afc52ba4a as they dbc48e6113 cut through 78c5cae691 the bone-chilling 01a82b411d wind.2d4a1116a4491001

Daon snorted when af74bb8c00 she heard JaeOn’s 8536fb88c1 excited voice and 7d4af29809 leaned her forehead 283214b33b against the window. For the past few 2cac774dcf days, JaeOn had gone 3afd71227c all out to try 70fabd7db1 and lift Daon’s spirits. Unfortunately, all those efforts 9a6db6dc07 were for naught.0d1cd58de533382d

After giving her 2379647c26 time to think, 785a0673da WooHyun hid his e2e553e59b whereabouts from Daon. She knew 588a07526a it was db28a855ce his way fb2bd39c85 of being 5d4982ee5b considerate and fe8ab450c7 giving her 858addd60a the space a58f83ec56 and time 35b22f72b6 to focus b782176777 on her 8a00f31ba3 own thoughts. However, in reality, 7d9021af65 his absence made 90b6aed28b her realize what 63083aff5b a precious fixture 232ec34151 he had been 2612c4ffc9 in her life. From then on, e6cf98274d Daon would more 860854c434 often than not 88e47bb920 look up at d098e57ae4 the sky with 22682dcecf dazed eyes.51811e441cf435c9

A relationship had e33f96be56 taken form in 7bf5303e1b her mind. One where they did cec850249f not have silly fights c0288ac715 like other couples. One where they 96bcf8fd90 did not have 46e086ad2d to break up.0be332c3f68978f7

From her extremely short 7f056e42b1 first relationship, she had cbae8f6b4a learned that romantic feelings 546b1b831e could always fade away. She thought 5a8356becf that WooHyun 546c868246 had felt 4359609d90 the same 0f5ae3f15a way as 5dadb76d7b her. So when he 4c067ce2fe dropped the bomb acf44efed6 on her, she 1104e4059b had been completely 1316097570 shocked.05622d0c2c516e5d

Now that she 89b1295723 had reached a 9ccbea1d4b fork in the 7cec1c7172 road of their f2d0bfbf63 relationship, she had e7f840d036 come to realize 9341d5e52e that the person 21eff5d631 who would be 8b472e2b7d the biggest distraction 6416feee0f from dating WooHyun af880fef1e would be Yu 7d1abe01d0 JaeOn. He was definitely 1ff425a07a the kind of be6e996201 person who would cb640fc3ea laugh and sneer a64da93363 at the thought 3d7eb2276f of his little 9688cced1c sister getting together 6887197312 with his friend.3e25d1200d11cc4a

It had been a 922aeabfc9 while since the three 37a09675ea of them, JaeOn, Daon b4dc4305c0 and SoYoung, had all 5372517564 gone out for a fa4f99eb6a meal. Throughout the long 87abc95e1d length of JaeOn 7b8f276467 and SoYoung’s relationship, c2553d9c37 Daon had met 7df44f585b up with them 682f4df3c6 from time to b041bb0449 time, but this 1160494455 meeting was very a164fbc815 special. Their two families were 72650fcc4a in marriage talks.8a0f47e3a126eafc

Now that JaeOn had 1abb8c1eca established himself in his c204e0d86e job, it was only 4d289babfb expected that talks of 54e6bad09b marriage would arise. However, he 5ca5dc0ced wasn’t sure c5ebf560b7 if it 17f4660677 was something 13af307544 SoYoung wanted 26d94cc257 to do, 489f6b094c so there 5a241da03c was some 2b3ead79b5 hesitation.32ececf8cbcfe4dd

They finally arrived at efb0b4131d their destination. A valet rushed 168b9f18eb over to them, 5d08bc5b71 and JaeOn gave 817a67eca8 him his car. JaeOn looked around.

“Daon!”8e1506cd0abb2a62

She was 967377b3c3 tall and f1812bcc97 slender. Her head was 5b3a4ce37e the size of 5d2ecee180 a fist, and ceb0c4a1aa she had a 0e869a12da beautiful face.

SoYoung wrapped her 10987d2365 arms around Daon’s 020d7bbf92 shoulders as she 5e4eef2fde gave her a e65d19f281 hug. Then she cbc1584628 brought her 160ec4bea7 inside the 42d42e58ce restaurant. JaeOn followed behind them cc315ddaad as he wondered how 0ea1dad0d5 he should propose to c908170da6 SoYoung.af2e10b43e4084a0

Once they 438bf58fca were seated 4c43914686 at the 52eb2ecfb6 reserved table 656a4d96bf by the 9cf4155624 window, Daon 3ed568a9b4 looked around 6e9025eb91 the restaurant.

When she saw 9b146df0b1 JaeOn sitting close 5e583ca98e to SoYoung like a4d8039364 a puppy, Daon 17a7987dc0 was startled. Seeing someone in 43620e1720 her family act 3252f8cd26 like this with d764475cf3 their significant other 62e06cd899 was awkward.
