33 – Meeting Happiness and Despair

As we walked hand in hand, we came to a fork in the road divided into two.

On the signboard, [Cherry Blossom Orchard] And [Cherry Blossom Land] Were engraved.

“Where should I go?”

At Sujeongi’s question, I took out the brochure I had received from Jisoo noona from my bag and took a look at it.

“Looking at the information booklet, I think there are rides in this direction and there is a locker here too?”

“Really? Then come on over here!”

Sujeongi grabbed her hand, which she had briefly let go of while looking at the booklet, and led her toward the place where [Cherry Blossom Land] Was written.

And after a while, there were not many rides and shops at the place we arrived.

Among them, the one that caught Sujeongi’s attention was a huge ship-shaped ride, commonly called a Viking.

“Wonwoo, let’s get on that first!”

The look on Sujeongi’s face as she pointed and spoke was full of anticipation.

“Yes, let’s leave our luggage first and go.”

“Oh, that’s right. Heh, I must have been too excited.”

Sujeongie speaks with a slightly embarrassed smile. The way she scratches her head while sticking her tongue out looks very cute.

“Storage is 1,000 won per hour. Don’t forget to bring it with you.”

After depositing your luggage according to the guidance of the luggage storage staff,

The two of us immediately moved toward the Vikings Sujeong wanted.

Wow.

A viking moving with the sound of the wind.

I was first surprised by the much larger size than expected, and then I was surprised again that it went up to the point where I wondered if it would be okay with the height of the lift and the angle of the bend.

“Has Sujeong-i ridden many of these?”

When I asked Sujeong while waiting in a line that was not long because no one was there, she shook her head and said.

“No, I came once when I was young, but at that time I was too young and couldn’t ride it because of height restrictions. So I’m really looking forward to it!”

Modification of the face mentioned above. Seeing her resolutely clasping both of her hands tightly, I felt strongly that she was resolving the unfulfilled resentment.

“Really? Who were you with at that time?”

Sujeongi, who was momentarily speechless at the thoughtless question, said with an awkward smile.

“I came with my mother and brother.”

“Ah, there was also an older brother. I didn’t know.”

“Ah, yes….”

Looking at his eyes, he seemed to be asking something difficult. Now that I think about it, neither of us asked about each other’s families or anything like that.

Sujeongie must have been careful because she found out everything about me during the investigation process, and from my point of view, I think I didn’t bring it up because I had to tell everything about my family.

The Viking, which was running just in time, came down to the ground and stopped, and there weren’t many people, so our turn came right away.

I thought it was fortunate that the Vikings came down at the moment when the atmosphere was about to become heavy, and this time, I put my strength into my hands and led Sujeong first.

“Uh, it’s our turn. It’s your first time, so you should go to a fun place, right?”

Having said that, the place where I was located was right in the middle of the Viking’s last place.

It is a great place where you can properly experience extreme heights, and it is also a place where super cowards can ascend into the sky.

Sujeong-i, who was guided by my hand, suddenly found a place to taste it properly.

“Hey, Wonwoo. They say the back end is scary.”

“Ah, that’s what cowards say. Could it be that our S-rank Hunter Choi Soo-jung was frightened by this? You expected a lot.”

When I said it with a little provocation, Sujeongi said as if her eyes were narrowing as if her pride was hurt.

“Of course. I’m standing in the air, but this much is nothing!”

“Oh, there’s no way our Sujeongi would be like that.”

I knew it would come over. Now we just have to wait and see what the results will be.

[The safety bar comes down. Let’s start our Fleet Express voyage.]

At that time, a long brown pole descended along with the operation guide.

It was the first time I saw Sujeongi’s face, so it looked fine except for a slight stiffness.

Wow.

The Viking begins to rock back and forth little by little. There has been no excitement yet.

Wow.

The Vikings get faster and go higher. At the same time, the wind hitting the face goes beyond coolness to the level of hitting.

[Kyaaa.]

Screams are heard from the people on the other side.

Looking sideways, Sujeongi’s face hardened slightly, but she didn’t grab the safety bar or take any action like that.

Wow.

However, the Vikings soar higher and faster as if this wasn’t the end.

I hadn’t experienced this level of height before, even when I was working part-time at an amusement park for a while, so I actually flinched.

Sujeongi also clutched the safety bar in front of her as if she was startled at that moment.

As our bodies experienced a momentary state of weightlessness, the unwanted feeling of floating up, the wind when we fell, and the dizzying sensation of colliding with the ground enveloped us.

Wow.

The Vikings soared again as I heard a louder mechanical sound in my ears.

‘Crazy. Going higher from here? I know that up to 90 degrees is the best, but this is not at that level?’

I thought the high point was over, but it was rather absurd to go higher.

At that time, I realized that magic power was slowly flowing out of Sujeongi’s body, who was holding on to the safety bar.

‘I’m in trouble!’

It seemed that he was unsure of himself and was trying to use magic as a survival instinct.

To calm her down, Soo-jeong came close to her side, wrapping one hand around Su-jeong’s waist, and with the other hand, I placed my hand on top of Su-jeong’s hand, which was placed on the safety bar.

“It’s okay, Sujeong-ah. Calm down, it’s safe.”

“… Ah yes.”

Let’s say it in a whisper, and Soo-jeong hides her magic again as if she came to her senses belatedly.

Fortunately, the speed and height of the Vikings also began to decrease little by little, as if the peak had just reached its peak.

[Thank you for using our Fleet Express. The way out is on the left.]

After the Viking came to a complete stop, the two of us stood up cautiously at the end of the operation.

I feel exhausted as it must have been quite difficult not only for Sujeong but also for the height and speed that I have never experienced before.

“Let’s sit down for a while and type something else.”

“Yes, it is. I also want to sit down for a while.”

The two of us sat on a bench in sight as soon as we came out.

When I glanced at Sujeongi, it was clear that she was tired.

Sorry arises because I wonder if I made you sit at the back.

“Are you okay? Are you not feeling well or anything like that?”

When asked out of concern, Sujeongi nodded her head and said.

“Yes, it’s fine. I was just amazed.”

“Huh? What?”

“Rather than being afraid of being high and fast, I was very scared because I had to surrender myself to the speed and height that I could not control.”

I immediately understood what he meant.

If you get into a car and the driver is a racer and speeds up faster than expected, the person sitting next to you will be anxious and scared.

To be honest, I was embarrassed and gave me goosebumps at the moment when I went higher than expected.

“Wow, Wonwoo. I’ll borrow it for a while.”

Soo-jeong, who gave a childish voice, moved closer to me and leaned on her shoulder before closing her eyes.

However, that posture looks uncomfortable, which bothers me.

Usually I would have been quiet like this, but today I am different.

He carefully lifted his arm and wrapped it around Sujeongi’s shoulder.

Sujeong-i opened her eyes and looked at me gently. As I pretended nothing was wrong and looked straight ahead, Sujeong smiled and leaned on me more.

Then, Sujeongi’s lavender scent and the first faint scent of roses flowed into his nose.

The heart also reacted to the pleasant scent, and the quiet beat started to beat faster.

On the other hand, Sujeongi’s face is relieved because it looks comfortable unlike before, when her eyes were closed and stiff.

“Wonwoo, you just grabbed my waist and hands. Now you have become very good at skinship. Turns out you’re a player, isn’t it?”

Sujeong talking with her eyes closed, perhaps feeling the gaze.

He was slightly taken aback by the comment and claimed self-defense.

“Ah, I can’t help it at that moment. Because an accident could happen. Of course, it’s Sujeong’s first ride, and it’s my fault for bringing him to the highest point….”

“Right. You’re deliberately scratching your ego, right?”

“Yes, let’s go. I was wrong.”

I was trying to change the atmosphere, but I remembered the incident at the arcade last time, so I had to admit that I was a bit overbearing.

“Then you must be punished.”

A way of speaking that seems to be repaying revenge for the previous incident. However, there was something wrong, so I calmly accepted it.

“So what are you going to punish me for?”

“I’m going to give you this.”

As soon as she finished her words, Sujeongi, who had closed her eyes, suddenly opened her eyes and raised her body leaning in her arms.

Page.

Sujeongi’s soft pink lips hit my cheek.

“Whoops, ‘Do better next time.’ I put a stamp on it. If you do well, next time I’ll put a stamp on you, saying, ‘You did very well.'”

Sujeong-i pointed at my lips with a light smile.

In her red eyes, she seemed to have both the now-familiar playfulness and deep affection at the same time.

And then, as if he was feeling better, he got up from the bench and looked at me and said.

“Then, shall we go for another ride? Hand!”

Sujeong asked for my hand as if it were natural now. I was already used to it and was already reaching out.

*

In front of her eyes were pink cherry blossoms in full bloom, and Han Yu-ra was walking alone in a daze on a wide road.

‘Why did I come here?’

Passing through the gate through the ticket Kim Ji-soo gave her, she asked herself.

But I couldn’t come up with the right answer.

I know Wonwoo Lee’s personality better than anyone else. Once he made up his mind and turned around, he never looked back.

He is more dedicated and kind to the people he likes than anyone else, but once he has a change of heart, he is more cold and heartless than anyone else.

In Lee Won-woo’s mind, he is already a person without himself.

As I suddenly thought of this, the black sunglasses I had worn to cover my swollen eyes were about to blur again.

‘Stop crying, fool. What did you do well?’

He couldn’t even understand himself.

As soon as Lee Won-woo’s mana returned, he said that he was fine by himself, but he was weak.

But is it really just because the mana returns? I could categorically say no to that part.

As his mana returns, the warmth and strength of the days he lost came back, so he is shaken and in despair.

For the first time in Han Yu-ra’s life, the man who thought it would be okay just to be by her side has returned.

“Whoa….”

After she sighed, Yura Han shook her head to clear her head and looked at the cherry blossoms around her.

But she caught Lee Wonwoo again, this time in her chest.

Why did he not think of making memories in a place like this when he was with Lee Won-woo?

And the envy of Soo-jeong Choi grows. To be able to confess her love to him and have him in such a beautiful place.

‘Ha, stop. Please.’

Han Yoo-ra, who seemed to be walking without incident, slowly rotted and festered inside.

She walked like that and arrived at a fork in the road. There were signposts written all over her, but Hanyura took her right without thinking.

She didn’t even know why, she came without any purpose, so she had no reason to worry.

As she walked for a bit, she saw facilities resembling amusement parks everywhere.

‘Looks like they made it possible to ride the rides while viewing the cherry blossoms.’

As soon as Lee Won-woo’s face came to mind, along with the idea that it would be a good date course, an unknown pain came to his chest again.

It feels like something is being torn apart while being blocked.

“Whoa….”

Han Yu-ra took a few deep breaths to clear her mind. There were quite a few people now, so I couldn’t show my ugly side anyway.

She turned her head and slowly looked around her. Unfortunately, Wonwoo Lee was nowhere to be seen.

And just as I was about to turn around thinking I wasn’t here, a familiar silhouette caught my eye from afar.

She carefully sat her on the bench as she supported the struggling silver-haired woman as if she had just stepped off the ride.

‘Wonwoo Lee!’

Han Yoo-ra noticed that her own heart, which was dying in her pain, started beating briskly just by looking at Lee Won-woo.

I was able to quickly realize the reason why I came here brazenly even if I thought about it.

I want to see Wonwoo Lee. He wanted to meet his light, and that was just one reason.

Hanyura approached it without a moment’s thought.

She couldn’t hear what she was saying because of the distance, but they looked like a loving couple overflowing with affection.

Han Yu-ra bit her lower lip hard enough to bleed out her blood without even realizing it.

‘I have to accept it now…. I can’t accept it.’

From noble mtl dot com

It seemed that the seat next to Lee Won-woo was still her own to Han Yoo-ra.

A state where her heart can’t accept it even though her head understands it.

Looking at Lee Won-woo, it hurts even more than before as her heart was beating fast.

Won-Woo Lee puts her hand on Soo-Jung Choi’s shoulder while watching them, and Soo-Jung Choi leans into her arms.

And Choi Soo-jung, who unexpectedly kisses Lee Won-woo’s cheek.

“Ah….”

Han Yu-ra sighed involuntarily, and at that moment her legs gave out and almost collapsed.

What was more shocking than the act of kissing was the happiest expression on Lee Won-woo’s face than anyone else in the world.

In the past, even when Han Yu-ra hugged or allowed skinship, she had a look she had never seen before.

He felt unfamiliar with Lee Won-woo, who had a face he didn’t know, but anyone could tell that he was happier than anyone else.

“Why….”

I couldn’t chase after the two of them, who got up from the bench and left somewhere because of the sense of defeat that came over me again, so I had no choice but to stand there.
