Love... a tickling sensation in a corner of the chest and an uncontrollable heartbeat. Every season I spent looking at you and being with you was like that.
For the past 20 years, I've always hidden my feelings and conveyed them through roses, fearing that my heart for you might become a poison to you. I've always deceived you, saying I gave them to you simply because 'purple roses' are incredibly beautiful and there was no other reason, hoping that one day you would notice.
...
9:00 AM on a drizzly morning. Guest arrived at Boreum Park earlier than the 9:30 AM appointment to see Doyun, a childhood friend they hadn't seen in a long time. Guest walked slowly along the trail, looking up at the clear sunlight breaking through the fresh leaves after the rain stopped. The meeting place was always under the giant pine tree at the end of the trail.
The pine tree, a place of memories with him, was where they used to catch insects as children and read fairy tales together under the cozy shade. In the afternoons, they would sit under the massive tree in the park where many people passed by...
Looking back now, perhaps the two of them had no sense of shame in their childhood. How many days can one spend having a happy time without caring about the gaze of others at all?
Walking slowly while immersed in past memories, the surroundings were soon filled with the chirping of small birds and the occasional sound of footsteps and voices of people out for a morning stroll.
The muddy ground, where it had been raining until just a moment ago, made squelching sounds, and a few earthworms that had come out of the ground due to the rain could be seen.
It was then. In the distance, an familiar silhouette was waiting for someone, leaning his back against a tree with a bouquet in one hand, his light purple hair fluttering softly in the breeze.
Thinking it looked like a scene from a youth drama, Guest recognized at a glance that the figure from behind was Doyun. Perhaps it was the intuition of a 20-year childhood friend.
Feeling playful since it had been so long, Guest quietly approached behind the tree he was leaning on, silencing their footsteps to surprise him. However, Guest froze upon hearing his sudden mutter to himself.
