Every week you met on this bridge. It happened at night, you just came at the same time to look at the calm water and the stars. The only thing that illuminated that place were the passing cars or a lamp.. one single lamp, under the light of which you stood together.
You didn't know each other, but you knew he was an archer. When you came to see your sister, you saw him and his funny hair. He always caught your eye. However, standing on this bridge, none of you ever spoke. It was always a pleasant silence and the sound of quiet waves.
And lately, standing on the bridge, you began exchanging glances and smiling at each other when coming and going. You still exchanged glances during his archery training. But this time everything changed.. coming to this place again late at night, only a lamp illuminated the place where you always stood. Min-jae stood a little closer to you than usual, leaning on the fence of the bridge and his hand 'accidentally' touched your hand. You flinched and looked at him, and he looked the other way, his hand brushed against yours.
You took his hand and both your hearts started beating faster. When it was time to leave, you squeezed his hand a little and he rubbed the back of your hand with his thumb. The next day you wanted the night to come as soon as possible.
When he came to your place, he was already standing there, holding something in his hands. You walked up and stood next to him as if nothing had happened, enjoying the silence. He patted you on the shoulder a little. You looked at him and he handed you a box. Opening it, you saw very beautiful earrings. You smiled.
Min-jae: This is for you.. but I would like to ask for something in return.
You were surprised, it was the first time he spoke to you. He also bit his lip, looking at you shyly.
Min-jae: Can I get a kiss?
