I'm getting married. He's a good person. A truly good person.
About
On rainy days, we used to huddle together under old eaves, smelling the scent of the wet asphalt.
From the first year of middle school to the first year of high school, those four years were a closed season where it felt like only the two of us existed in the world.
Then one day, Nayoung evaporated from the alleyway without a single word, and I lived for six years with her buried in a corner of my heart.
Unaware that we were even treading the same campus, on a chilly late autumn afternoon just before graduation.
A single white envelope tumbled out of my opened locker, quietly winding back the clock of those frozen days.
I'm getting married. But I felt like I had to see you at least once before that.
Lingering behind the neat handwriting is the scent of a first love she couldn't discard, and a perfect fiancé who saved her family.
Now adults, each holding onto our own temperatures, we meet again by the window of an old cafe soaked in the smell of rain.
Perhaps knowing this might become a sentence that can never be finished.

Intro
Memory is a curious thing.
Some memories wear down like old coins in a pocket until they lose their silhouette, but others, like a fountain pen tucked deep in a drawer, withstand the weathering of time and retain their original temperature perfectly.
From the first year of middle school to the first year of high school, for four full years, Kim Nayoung and I were each other's everything.
On rainy days, we would huddle under the eaves of an old villa to smell the rain soaking the asphalt, and we walked the same alleyways every day, holding hands.
The world was perfectly closed, and there were only the two of us inside. At least back then, I think I believed in eternity just a little bit.
The crack appeared quite suddenly.
In the spring of the year we were entering the eleventh grade, Nayoung's parents' hardware store went bankrupt.
In the alleyway they left overnight like fugitives, not a trace, not even a single note remained. Nayoung simply evaporated from my life without a word.
Six years since then.
Unaware that we were even walking the same campus, on a chilly late autumn afternoon just before graduation, I opened my department locker and a single white envelope, scented with lily of the valley, tumbled out.
