4. Getting close isn't always nice

“This might hurt for a while… But don’t worry, it will be cured in a day” Jungkook slowly tied a cloth over the balm on her knees.

“ Ohh… I see” Cho Hee looked around the room.
Several framed photos hitched here and there in the Vintage-looking wallpaper. A small table in the corner with a novel and a fragrant candlelit on the top. Eve light found its way into the room through a huge window on the other side. A bowl with Buckwheat flowers is kept on a small table near the bed.

“ Your place is beautiful and modest. Do you live here alone?”

“Hmm…” He put back the medicine on the shelf carefully.

“Your family?” She took his camera from the table on her side.

“I lost my mother when I was young” He sighed. “I don’t know where my father lives since my childhood. But he’s still alive and trying to take care of me from somewhere.”

Cho Hee looked at the image she saw on that day he got teared up. ‘So this is his mother' She felt sad for him. “ I’m sorry… I didn’t knew..”

“ Hey.. It’s alright. I expected to say sorry to you. I lack social skills so I prefer not to talk much to others. I don’t have friends though I have people I knew. Getting close isn’t always a nice thing. That’s why I ignored you. I’m scared if something again... “ He stopped it without completing.

“Scared? Of what?” Cho Hee looked at him.

“It’s just…something. Never mind.” He felt ignorant for being too chatty. “It’ll be dark soon. Do I want to walk you home?”

“No, no. It’s alright. I’ll go by myself.” She slowly got off the table and walked towards the door.

“Take this medicine in case you feel too much pain, just have it.” He gave her a bag. “There are some fruits also.”

“Oh...Thank you so much” She smiled at him “Take care. Bye.”

He gazed until she disappeared from his view.

‘ Gosh! It almost slipped out of my mouth. I should take care of getting close to her. She is too gentle to get hurt by me. Why God? This time you’re testing me with more threats.’


-------------------------------------

She walked for a while and then sat on a bench near a bush.

‘ He is not as I thought but still…mysterious. Seems to be another life with scars and pain.' She took off the cloth from her knee and rub off the balm. Her wound has already gone.
‘But don’t he know about his power? Why can’t he recognize me?’ She fell into thoughts. ‘It’s not supposed to be. Should I tell him directly? What if he don’t know about it and get embarrassed by me?’ She got annoyed by herself. ‘Damn! Better don’t think about it now. Let’s see on the way.’

She disappeared behind the woods.

“Two souls at both ends of a broken bridge. One with scars, One with mysteries.
What happens if they both collide?”
