"...... why did you come out?"

"That's what I was trying to say."

Jungkook, who came close, put a shawl around my shoulder.

Then I diminished it as if there were no momentary gaps.

"Isn't it cold?"

"...... not so, it's just a little cool."

"Still, put this on."

After putting the shawl around, Jungkook sat next to me.

I fiddled with the shawl wrapped around my upper body without a murmur.

I could feel my heart pounding.

'I'm being like this again.'

The shawl edges were pressed for no reason.

I was getting used to the fact that my heart was beating like this even though it was nothing.

"Why are you out there?"

"That's.....wait a minute, that's the question I asked first."

"I followed you, noona."

There were times when Jungkook's smile often feels bitter after I realized my feelings, which was now.

It was fortunate that it was dark.

I answered back with my gaze down.

"It's not a big deal, either. I just have a little something to think about....."

"What thoughts?"

"......this and that."

Did it sound like I was avoiding the answer?

But I could never say straight.

Whether I was planning to run away......anything else.

"Noona."

"Huh?"

"I once said this before."

"......"

"Now it's just the two of us."

I raised my eyes.

Jungkook was looking at the garden with nothing but darkness.

Thanks to it, I was able to capture Jungkook's side face with my eyes as if I were appreciating it.

Straight forehead.

High nose, sharp-faced lines.

I was watching him as if I had been possessed, but I came to my senses belatedly.

Oh, that's why I can't let my guard down.

"Do you remember?"

"...... when was it?"

"I don't think it's been a long time."

"It's been a long time. That's what the people used to say if they forget it."

Those words fell on the day my parents died.

On the day of the funeral, when the priest wrote my parents' name on the coffin then buried under the cold ground.

The younger brother, who was well covered, said, holding his sister's hand, who was lower than I was.

'At that time, I should have run away.'

It sounded like a death sentence at that time ...maybe.

'When did I start liking Jungkook?'

My awareness was late, I didn't think it was feelings accumulated over a day or two.
