2010, Jul 23 - Hoseok (Chocolate Bar)

[Place: School]

It all happened when I counted to four. I was counting some fruits, maybe tomatoes or melons. I'm not sure.

"Four." As soon I said it, a vision from my childhood appeared before my eyes. I was holding hands with someone.

It was the day when I first went to an amusement park with eommeoni. I was mesmerized by the colorful flags and rows of shops. People dressed like clowns waved at me, and exciting music reverberated in every corner. Eommeoni stopped in front of a merry-go-round. White horses were going round and round under sparkling lights.

I was about to ask, "Eomma, are we here to ride this?", when someone called,

"Hoseok-ah", I looked up. It was my teacher.

My classmates were looking at me with bewildered eyes. The vision of my childhood disappeared. My teacher urged me to continue, and I began counting again. Five. Six. Eommeoni appeared before my eyes again.

She looked exactly the same as a minute ago. Her face was shaded as she was standing in front of the light and a breeze fanned her hair. Eommeoni handed me a chocolate bar.

"Hoseok-ah, close your eyes tight and don't open them until you count to ten."

Seven. Eight. Nine.

I stopped there. My teacher made a gesture signaling me to go on. My classmates stared at me again. I opened my mouth, but no words came out. Eommeoni's face blurred. It felt as if she would never come looking for me if I finished counting to ten.

I fell to the ground.
