Chapter 21 - Kang Jun
“That was December 1995,” Hana recalled.  It was an ordinary day in Hana’s life back in her hometown in the Philippines, Ilocos Region.  Unlike her classmates, she had to take a break from school while preparing for their movement to South Korea. Most of her high school friends were in college and dispersed all over the place. All her classmates who are studying out-of-town came home for a Christmas reunion. It was likewise their send-off party for Hana. Hana and her friends all agreed to meet at The Heritage Village for a mini-reunion.  The village was incredibly busy with local and foreign tourists alike marveling at the century-old stone houses with windows made of capiz shells. It was only accessible by foot or by carriage, like stepping to a time warp back in the Spanish era. The group huddled in a circle next to the oldest resid

Chapter 22 - The Muse
(Kang Jun’s POV)  “Lovely,” Kang Jun replied. “Huh?!”  “I said... this diner is lovely.” He lifted his hands towards the waiter, later shifted to her, “order for us.” It’s the only way she could settle down, he murmured to himself.  Kang Jun had seen lots of ladies who’d have shrieked and flipped on the floor after a rattling or unpleasant scene.  But she’s extraordinary.  She sat there in silence, and her aura just shouted not to mess up with her. Even if she cried inside the church, it was brief. Almost like washing her face from the horror and humiliation. When she looked up, he felt a fire burning inside her. Kang Jun sat quietly across from her, his eyes intently examining her quiet and reserved nature as she placed their order with the waiter.&n

Chapter 23 - Feud of the Beauties
“So, that’s how you met?” Go-eun asked Hana.“Yes. Pretty much, I met Oppa Kang Jun first before you fellows. And when I met him again last year on my birthday, we never lost contact.”“Your birthday last year was a dope. Any plans this year?”“None. Well, none that I know of. I’d go for a simple celebration here in the sanctuary with you guys.”“That reminds me. What’s up with you and Baekhina?”Hana gave a deep groan.********A week ago.“Okay, class, listen,” Mrs. Min whacked a long wooden stick, which the teacher’s call a magic wand and kids refer to as a disciplinary stick, on the table. Everyone in the class hushed and twisted to the homeroom teacher.“We’re going to have our annual festival this month.” The class of girls woot and hooted like it’s t

Chapter 24 - The Heart is a Mirror
“Hana, Hana,” Go-Eun shouted as she rushed towards the girl standing at the door. “Come instantly,” she continued, grabbing Hana’s wrist, yanking her towards the school grounds.“Wait wait, Go-eun. What’s going on?” Hana asked while she dashed behind Go-Eun.“Baekhina is looking for you,” she responded.“Oh! There you are,” Baekhina turned around and waved towards Hana.She scan their surrounding. Her eyes spotted a glimpse of Kwanghee and Suho from a distance. She shuffled closer to Hana. One of the ladies supported her as she trudged, and the rest of the girls made way for her like the red sea parting.“What is she up to this time,” Go-eun asked Hana while watching Baekhina sashayed amongst the flock. “I have a bad feeling about this.”“Why are you looking for me, Baekhina,” Hana asked with a deadpan expression

Chapter 25 - Never-ending Surprises
Suho stared at the room facing him, in profound reflections, pondering... “I couldn’t do anything for my dad then, but perhaps there’s something I can do for Hana. I won’t be able to forgive myself if something serious happens to her. And the best birthday gift that I could possibly give her is to watch her, even from afar, keeping her safe and happy.” The sun has set. Dusk settled in, burying the entire city in eerie silence. Soft whispers tingled the ears. A needle-like breeze stroked the skin, sending chills to the spine, inching down to the lumbar spine as if an icy hand thrust the back forward.  The climate has rapidly fluctuated over the last few days as fall kicked in. But it sketched a fascinating landscape that softened the burden of the people.  Rays of the sun trying to break through the dark-colored drapery, almost pleading to let them in. A gu

Chapter 26 - Hospitable Wolves
Riiing. Hana’s phone buzzed and pulsated in her handbag. It was Baekhina, and she was looking for her. She didn’t realize it was already 2 pm. And Baekhina’s voice was shaking her brain like a rainstorm in mid-autumn. Hana pulled the bike out of the storage room, refilled the dogs’ water bowl, and dashed outside. If it wasn’t for Kang Jun, she might not have attended the celebration. But she owed more than she can imagine that his simple request might not even account for everything he has done for her. Hana struggled for a bit, trying to adapt to her new bike. She noticed that the chair was extra fluffy and soft, unlike the ordinary bicycles out there. A little bit of Suho’s touch, she flushed. The wind turned cooler as she pedaled her way to Daegu Hotel. Her eyes scanned for a bike rack at the hotel, which she discovered concealed between bushes and tall plants. After securing her bike and tulips in the basket, she stormed upstairs. “Room 402, it read.” As she steppe

Chapter 27 - Uninvited
The elevator ride to the ground floor was the slowest and agonizing lift in Hana’s life. Outside, the climate has turned a new leaf. Rain clouds prevented the sunlight from radiating, covering the entire blue sky. An impending downpour not far from the horizon. The immediate drop in the temperature didn’t appease Hana’s mind and anger. Cold sweat formed on her forehead while her face all flashed in red—her ears buzzing from the loud noise coming off her chest.  Hana knew only one thing — SHE MUST GET OUT THERE IMMEDIATELY! Her trembling hands and shortness of breath made leaving a struggle. Hana could hardly hold herself up as her knees wobbled. Unlocking the bike was tough. Mounting her bike, Hana couldn’t contain her grief. The agony weighed her down, and her heart stabbed from all directions. “I knew it. This was a big mistake,” she lamented.&n

Chapter 28 - Friends for Keeps
Dingdong. Dingdong. “Hana, Hana, are you there?” A loud knock drew her back to earth. Hana closed the box, jostled on her feet, and dropped the gift on the nightstand. “I’m here, Go-eun.” She opened the door and saw a giant balloon bouquet and an armful of presents and things standing in front of her. “Happy Birthday!” Go-eun peered behind the bouquet, beaming at her. Hana lit up, “Go-eun! Let me help you with that.” Reaching for the wreath and the plastic pouches in her hand. “Wow! You carried all of these.” “I know, right? They’re from the party. And since you didn’t come, I carried them here instead.” “Oh! Didn’t you eat? Come in.” Hana held the door for Go-eun. “Well, we did. We ate some kimbap, Mandu, and japchae Suho brought. Kwanghee also brought some ice cream. And we finished that one too, or else I’ll bring you colored liquid. Jim and I made this bouquet for you.” “Really?! I didn’t think you’d get a party going for me. Oh, you can set them down there,” Hana po

Chapter 29 - Casting a Cloud
“Sunday night came but still no trace of Suho?” Hana wondered what’s up with him. He had been missing in action since her birthday. And if not for the gifts, she would’ve assumed he neglected her altogether.Mrs. Lee came earlier that morning to refill the food inside their refrigerator. She also brought some seaweed soup for Hana. “Oh, Hana. I am sorry. I only found out from Naeun about your birthday last night after helping her stitch up… Oops. (pretend you didn’t hear that — she whispered) That’s supposed to be a surprise,” Mrs. Lee laughed. “Anyway, have some seaweed soup, it’s food that’s usually served on birthdays.” “Thank you, imo. By the way, Is Suho home?“Not anymore. He took off early with Kwanghee. Sometimes I think those two are up to something.”“Maybe they’re just busy readying f

Chapter 30 - Behind the Clouds
On the day of the basketball try-outHana had been restless after not seeing him for the last four days. He didn’t drop any message except for her birthday greeting. The basketball court was full, and every player brought in their own cheering squad to the game. Hana’s eyes darted left and right, searching for Suho, but he was nowhere in sight. She descended and started seeking for Kwanghee, who had been absent at the shelter as well. Hana caught up to him as he was leaving the gym.“Hey, Kwanghee. Where’s Suho?”“He’s not here,” Kwanghee answered, his back against her. “Obviously. Why would I ask you if I can see him here? So tell me, where is he?”“He’s busy.”“I know, but shouldn’t he be here? He had been waiting for this opportunity. I am sure he’ll not let this pass. So where the hell is he?”Kwanghee turned around, flustered, “Why the hell are you mad at me when it’s your fault that he’s in a hut, Kwanghee mumbling to himself.”“What?”“Hana, Hana…” a voice called out behind h
