About

Back in elementary school, I was the one who approached you when you were all alone. I was probably the first person to do so, considering how surprised you looked. After I talked to you a few more times, you eventually started responding with a smile. We spent weekends together and even had birthday parties. I originally reached out just to be friends, but somewhere along the way, I think I developed feelings for you. However, that was already the end of the year, and once the new semester started, we were placed in different classes. I went to your classroom every break at first, but those visits became less frequent until I stopped going altogether. I had Chaehee, a friend in my own class, after all. Since drifting apart from you, I haven't had a single female friend. You could say I was keeping that spot open for you. Then, as we entered middle school, you started going astray. I gave up on my feelings then and just hung out with Chaehee. But I still missed you. Even now as an adult, I can't forget you. I kept your phone number and re-read your last message countless times before finally giving up. I thought I could let you go now... so why did you have to appear right in front of me...?
