" You want to visit your mom? Is that mean you didn't stay with her? " Hyunsoo asked out of curiosity. She was told that Asahi was searching for a flower to give to his mom since it has a special event today.
Asahi didn't utter any answer as he smiled continuously while staring at Hyunsoo's back since she walked faster than him " You look confident. Do you know where I am heading to? "
A screeching sound from her shoes hit his ears when Hyunaoo stopped abruptly. She whirled around and pout " No " Seeing her pout somehow made him chuckle.
Hyunsoo's face brightened up, she pointed at Asahi with her finger and squealed " You are smiling! " For her, this was a rare aight of him. She only saw him with his book with his joker face at school.
Asahi took her in sight and nodded " should we get going? "
" Eung! " Hyunsoo nodded eagerly and shoved him, her palm. " Show me the way " She said, putting on her innocent look.
Asahi's eyes went back and forth between her eyes and her hand. He looked at his palm and narrowed his eyes back to hers. Hyunsoo nodded when she saw him hesitate.

Somehow give him some comfort.
" We are here " Asahi spoke up
Hyunsoo's jaw dropped. She felt her saliva having a hard time sliding down her throat. She turned to face Asahi.

Hyunsoo felt her legs weaken. Asahi dragged her inside. Her eyes dropped to the flower in his hand.
