Daylan held back her cries with a smile then raised her head. “Since you're already here, why don't we go for a walk together? We haven't been traveling together in a long time, what do you think?” Maura smiled in agreement. Daylan again pulled Maura's hand running down the Seomyeon Area with
there are shops, restaurants, and cafes all along the way. Daylan's eyes were fixed somewhere. Steps ceased.
“Why stop here?”
“Cute me!” Daylan again pulled Maura's hand without answering her question and immediately headed for a store called “New Style & Mode”
“What will we do here?”
“Computer!”
“Hah?”
Daylan pulled out a pair of couple hats and put one of them on Maura's head and the other on his own head while smiling without answering Maura's confusion. Daylan wiped a line of clothes. Maura has chosen. Maura picked up a shirt and matched it to Daylan. Daylan did something similar. The two smiled and hinted to try on the clothes chosen by each other. The two entered the adjacent dressing room.
“Krek. Tap.” The two curtains of the space tried to open accompanied by footsteps coming out of it simultaneously. Both smiles are broad. Daylan grabbed the couple hat she had taken wearing it half-down and smiled. Maura wears hers. Both went to the cashier and before paying everything Daylan said a pair of glasses and put one of them on Maura. Both came back with their new looks.
The two again step parallel down the Soemyoen area with their new appearance. They entered the food street and eatery alley area full of stalls, restaurants, and food on the side of the road and visited some of them and tried Busan special snacks. The two covered it with 32 cm parfait ice cream, a branch of an ice cream stall in Seoul. Ice cream is 32 cm high with a variety of flavors. Maura opened her bag and grabbed her phone after receiving her order ice cream. He asked someone to take a picture with Daylan by holding an ice dream in both hands. Maura thanked him and began to step together again while devouring his ice cream. The two decided to sit down to spend their ice cream when they found a suitable spot for a moment to relax eating ice cream together. The crowd passed by in turn. Daylan smiled seeing something. “Hey, Maura... Would you like to try it?”
“Mmm...can also! Let's try!” the two then walked back and headed to a bicycle rental place. They chose two bikes. The two paddled off to Gwangalli Beach. Before going there to both stop at a spot that is usually used as a place of street performance. And because today is the weekend, both are lucky to be able to witness a street performance. A beautiful-looking artist was singing a song and occasionally dancing with his dance accompanist. Maura clapped her hands repeatedly while enjoying the stunning sound and performance of the street performance
that's. He smiled then turned to the right, “ Hey, Daylan! It's very nice.. isn't it?” maura asked half-broken when her visual did not find the figure being asked. His hand stopped. Her happy face turned frantic at once. He immediately took the first step to open the crowd with a visual
break through in all directions. “Daylan..!” call him while breaking through the crowd around him. His gaze swept in various directions as he continued to call out to Daylan. His eyes began to glaze over.calm immediately enveloped him. What is his heart really feeling, right…? Why the fear
curdling crackled in his heart as if the owner of the name he shouted would completely disappear from his grasp and reach…?
His footsteps immediately stopped instantly as a hand suddenly patted his shoulder slowly. He turned around quickly. “Hwaaaa..” Maura screamed hysterically to find what she saw. The masked figure that patted Maura's shoulder shut Maura's mouth reflexively with one of her hands. People looked towards them, and the figure was
immediately assured nothing had happened after one of his other hands removed the ghost mask on his face while bowing apologetically for making a fuss. Maura's tears are dripping. His body approached and hit a figure who was none other than Daylan slowly and then hugged him. He's still incapable
speechlessly. Daylan who after being hit was suddenly hugged gasps. What is this…? There's something weird…
“You scared me...” said Maura Pilu at last.
“Sorry, I was just a little prankster and wanted to surprise you earlier. I didn't expect it to be like this. I didn't mean.” Daylan's sentence was interrupted.
“I know. Don't repeat it again! Don't leave and suddenly disappear from beside me. Don't go to a place I can't reach anymore after my visuals finally reach you here…! I... I don't want to lose you.. I beg you..” Daylan's eyes widen silent. His heart suddenly ached and ached.
“Ah, there are many eye senses here! Do you want some pretty eyes to improve your mood?” Daylan diverted the conversation without responding further to Maura's plea. Maura took off her embrace. Daylan's fingers wiped Maura's tears. “Don't shout again, Ok?” Maura was still bowing to manage her feelings. “Hey...if you cry like this.I will also be sad and hurt.” Maura raised her face looking at Daylan. “I beg you, don't cry anymore.!” Maura nodded heavily. Daylan smiled and immediately pulled Maura's hand towards the rows of souvenir shops. Both of them look around and choose. –Sorry, Maura not to let you cry..-Maura dissolved and tried to enjoy the sweet atmosphere again with Daylan. His fingers scoured the group of accessories in front of him.
“Tadaaa..!” Daylan shocked Maura with a flower in her hand. Maura's lips flashed her smile like a flower she had brought for her. His eyes sparkled happily. “For you, Sweety...” Daylan extended her sincere hand. Maura grabbed him slowly and then kissed him.
“Gomawo...” Daylan smiled nodding slowly.
“You've chosen something?” Maura nodded.
“I want lock pair necklace and padlock only. What say?” Daylan was silent for a moment. His face forced the edges of his lips to draw a smile.
“Sure. Take it!”
Maura carved a happy smile while grabbing the souvenir she wanted with her fingers and then moving it. Daylan understood Maura's sign language and immediately reached out to reach for the pair's necklace that Maura was touching and put on a necklace hanging from a cute and elegant little padlock around Maura's neck. Maura then replaced the lock hanging necklace on Daylan's neck. “Come!” take Daylan while pulling Maura's hand after paying for their souvenirs. The two walked leisurely side by side towards the place of the bike they rented. Daylan prepared the bike position and then rode in front. Maura sat down
in back. “Alright, we're taking off! 1, 2, 3..gooooo...!” both are headed to Gwangalli Beach.
“Wuuuu...!” Maura exclaimed cheerfully as she continued to tease. The bike is going fast. The breeze stroked more and more coldly, whispering happiness and the expression of saying in Maura's ears. Maura immediately took off the hat and spread out her hands, the right hand holding the flower and the left holding her hat. “I love you..Daylan!” maura screamed until the end of her voice. “Gomawo..!” he added that he was covered in a happy and satisfied smile that made him more beautiful with the wind caress that wags his clothes and hair.
Deg. Daylan's heart flinched. “It hurts to admit it. But, the more I tried to dodge it, the more painful it felt. Actually maybe I... liked you far at the beginning of our meeting.. sarathaeso mianhae..”[1] Akira's speech which was closed with the last sentence he whispered in his ear was whispered softly by a gust of wind. Daylan's eyes glazed over. That night he pretended not to hear it while closing his eyes which had actually been awakened a while after Akira sat down and spoke beside him. He just didn't want to make it harder and hurt. And on top of everything that was going to happen, he did not want Akira to leave his side, because deep in his heart also slipped a word and taste that might be difficult and did not want to admit, he said, true is. Daylan's eyes glazed over. his goes weakened. Her tears fell.
BRUISES. The bike lost its balance. Daylan. “Aww...itc..” Maura complained of pain.Daylan moved to him.
“You okay?” daylan asked worriedly without paying any heed to her leg which was also injured.
“No papa, just a little sore. No need to worry!”
“Sorry..” regrets Daylan finally.
“Have it, don't be like this! we just have to keep going. Because life is not always what we want. Sometimes we do have to fall, Daylan..” Daylan smiled bitterly. “. Maski it's harder to live it than it is to do it.”
“Hmm. Thank you for everything, Maura..” Maura smiled nodding slowly. “You hungry?” Maura rolled her eyes and nodded back. “Then we eat Yoogane Dak Golbi[2]only there, how?” Daylan pointed to a restaurant with a picture of a rooster that all the menus were cooked at the table and not too far from their falling position. Maura agreed and the two immediately headed towards the restaurant. The two ate together as usual. There are always stories, jokes, and laughter in their togetherness. The natural atmosphere and the restaurants and the different food offerings make their togetherness feel better.
“If we keep walking we will arrive at Gwangalli Beach.” Daylan said after the two were a few meters in front of the restaurant where they ate.
“Then let's keep walking together until we reach our destination!”
it is beautiful to see in the evening from there. I want you to see it.” Maura smiled happily thank you.
“Splaasssh... byuur... splaasssh…” the pounding waves wag the sand of the beach then return to the sea and repeat it into a pleasant melody to be seen along with the sun that has been in a partial position on the sea. Daylan and Maura sat resting side by side on the sand
the beach looks at the glitter of twilight by the sea after cycling along the beach and playing with the water together.
Maura stood spread out her hands facing the sea and the sun. The sea breeze moved his hair and clothes. Her lips painted a smile that fascinated her. His hand moved to the ends of his lips. “Today is very beautiful.. I'm happy... Thank you, Daylan..!” he screamed happily.
Daylan's face turned deathly. Followed his feelings and heart. What the hell is going on? Wh why? Should I, her…? Maura turned towards Daylan. He saw clearly the fatal lines on Daylan's face that could not be covered anymore.
“Hey, Daylan! Don't put on a face like that at a time like this!” Maura looked back to the front.
“Sorry..” said Daylan softly bowed. Her tears are dripping. Maura reflexively turned her head towards Daylan.
“What did you just say? Say it again, I didn't hear.”
“I'm sorry, Maura.”.
“Sorry? Wh-wh-what for? And what's wrong with you? Are you sick? You exhausted?” Daylan raised his gaze looking at Maura's face. A drop of clear grain dripped back from Daylan's eye pellet. Daylan. Stepping closer and hugging Maura. Her tears flowed no matter how hard she tried to hold him. –What's wrong? What really happened.?-.
“Sorry...really forgive me..” said Daylan repeatedly in the midst of his cries and hugs. “Happy birthday, Maura..” Maura's widened eyes jerked. ~I love you, Maura.~ Daylan took off her hug. Stepping back one step. His face was still staring at Maura.
“Why are you crying? It wasn't you to cry like this. Aren't you happy with this beautiful day with me? And why are you apologizing? Although I don't understand why you're apologizing like that, hearing it is enough to make my heart ache. What really happened?”
Daylan pulled the edges of her lips and tried to hold back the tears that remained dripping on her handsome face. “Today you are even 23 years old.Hopefully this year be a good year and contains happiness for you.Hopefully you can reach your goals, graduate with more than good grades, and, and find something better than you ever met, you lived, and you loved.” Maura carved a smile in her confusion.
“Thank you, Daylan.. You made me..”.
“Today..” Daylan disconnects Maura's words. “...is...my last gift to you.” Maura's eyes widen.
“What do you mean? What are you really talking about, Daylan?”
“Today will close everything... between you and me..”.
“I told you, what are you really talking about?! You're talking about a strange thing I don't understand!”
“I'm sorry, Maura. I'm sorry that even when I cover up a reality from you I still love you, and hope that you will still love me
without knowing. And sorry because even though I really don't want to admit it. I may have betrayed your trust in me.”.
Maura's eyes reddened in tears. He began to understand the direction of Daylan's conversation that was painful. “What are you saying? Everyone has something that he really wants to keep and is unknown to others, anyone, even couples may also have secrets that their partners do not want to know. So, uh,
isn't it also natural that you keep something from me? I don't mind.” Maura's response was trying to give Daylan and herself a reason to feel better. To put aside the fear of the worst possible thing that could come true.
Daylan laughed unexpectedly at Maura's reply. Laughter that disguises sadness and tears. “You're too good, Maura! How can you say you don't mind not knowing it before you know what I'm hiding from you.?”.
“Stop…! Don't say anything more!” Maura turned her eyes.
“Why? After you say you don't mind me hiding something from you now you'll run away from reality for having hypothesized[3] what's going to happen next because of what I kept secret? Don't run away like that, Maura!”
