Another year another memory of Dad.

November came fast this year. I'm becoming a big kid now. I'm eleven years old.

I couldn't stop thinking about him all throughout the year. His smile, his eyes, his face. Every thing about him was cute.

So maybe I expect to see him there today.

Odds are slim.

But maybe...?

namjoon

I have a feeling she'll be there.

Don't people like go places every year for like tradition?

I'm eleven years old now.

I wonder how old she is.

Was it perhaps what you call love at first sight?

I don't know.

I am kind of young.

Her beautiful face sticks in my mind everywhere I go. I've not had any crushes in school or anything. She's the only one.

I will see her again.

Maybe I'll find out more about her.

Hopefully.

I get out of the car and tighten my curled ponytail. I immediately see him standing there.

I couldn't miss him.

His unique looks and handsomeness could never be forgotten. He'll always be on my mind.

Until the day I die.

There's a thing called love at first sight.

Maybe...?

I'm not sure.

I don't know him very much.

Jeez this is boring.

He's looking at you. You smile and your feet automatically being walking towards him.

Uhhh.

He looks around and begins walking towards you too.

He smiles when you meet.

"Hi, I'm Kim Namjoon."

namjoon

"Hi, I'm Kim Namjoon," I say happily.

She's here.

We meet once again on November 1st.

"Hi, I'm Park Nari."

Beautiful name.

It matches her and her features perfectly.

A beautiful name for a beautiful person.

Maybe this is love at first sight.

I straighten your posture and smile brightly in response to her up curved lips. She looks shy but happy.

"How old are you?" she asks.

"Eleven."

"Woahhh, really? Same!"

We're the same age, eh?

"Wow, we're basically meant to be, ha ha."

My smile drops and I itch behind my ear. Be cool Joon Man, don't seem desperate.

"Oh, uh yeah."

She smiles nervously before looking around.

"Oh, I've got to go."

Is the last thing she says before sprinting off in the other direction

You smile a bit and wave slightly to her back.

"Goodbye, Nari."

nari

He's my age, and he's handsome?! Not. Possible.

So maybe I went to far by saying we're meant to be. His smile dropped but he looked nervous.

He probably doesn't like you like that.

Do you even like him like that?

Huh.

You were sad to leave, but you had to.

I'll be back next year, Kim Namjoon.

Don't forget me.
