Have you ever sat and thought about old things? A childhood story that is a small story but when I think about it, it still brings a smile to my face like now..

In middle school, I was 'Yoo Seonho', an ordinary boy who lived with his mother and only 3 younger brothers. My family, from the outside, seemed incomplete. Because my father and mother separated when I was 10 years old, they were still good friends and neither me nor my brother felt like we were missing anything because of it. We will keep in touch as usual.

which I have to meet with my father every week..once a week He lives in a large condo in the middle of the city. There was a swimming pool that attracted me to visit my father often. Every time I go, I always go swimming without missing a beat. And every time I swim in that pool alone, it's considered my private pool.

Until one day, when I came down from the room, I heard the sound of water splashing out of the pool.

Is there anyone playing with you?

That was the first thought in my head before opening the door that separated the inside of the building from the outside.

Two white boys chase each other across the pond. They looked like they were siblings who were about the same age. And probably around the same age as me. One person had a fairly fair-skinned face. Has a body similar to Mr. The other one looks younger, but not much. Have beautiful skin, unlike girls who take good care of themselves.

His height was not much different from another handsome boy. The two of them looked perfect, like they came out of a swimsuit fashion magazine, compared to the normal boys' watery skin. His height was only 170 centimeters and his facial features weren't that outstanding and he was really envious. I looked at them for a while until they both looked at me standing on a chair by the pool, but after only a moment they turned to continue playing. So I didn't care about anything and went swimming as usual.

'Aren't you lonely here swimming alone?'

That scruffy-faced boy shouted to me from across the pond. Then he slowly swam closer.

'Just a little..but I'm used to it,' I answered honestly. Swimming alone isn't much fun. It must be better to have friends to play with. But if I don't go swimming, I have to sit bored in the room with my father. It's not that I'm bored with my father. But he was working all the time and didn't talk to me much. Choosing to swim downstairs was one of the things that solved my loneliness.

'So..do you want to come play with us?'

Another kid asked, their eyes widening at someone they'd just met for the first time. Made me not dare to refuse So he nodded and agreed.

The things we played with were like normal children, chasing each other, swimming against each other. Diving for as long as possible, we didn't have to worry about disturbing anyone because there were only three people in the pool. We played until the evening, although I think it had only been ten minutes. We looked very close, like we had known each other for a long time.

I know that the person with fair skin is named Hyun Bin, and the other person with beautiful skin is named Kuanlin. They lived in the building across from my father. And the two of them were cousins. There were only two of them living together because their house was far from school so their mother moved in together.

'Sir, your eyelashes are so long. Just like a girl'

Kuanlin moved his body and raised his head to look at my eyelashes until our faces were not too far apart. I was dead. My heart was pounding so hard it almost fell out. Why is it like this? We're both men.

'Whoa, it's close.' Hyun Bin, who looked at him for a long time, started to hold his relatives away from me. The two looked at each other for a while before Kuanlin was the first to splash his face into Hyunbin's face. The water war started again so I swam to join another group.

'Okay..just a little' I coughed until my body was huge because of the water that was splashed into my mouth until I choked.

'Are you okay?' Hyun Bin swam over to check on me, 'I'm coughing, my face is all red.' I didn't say anything. When he saw that I had stopped coughing, he reached out and pinched my cheek. gently Ah..Goddammit, my heart is beating for this kind of action again.

'A lot.' Last time, Hyun Bin was the one who pulled Kuanlin. This time, Kuanlin was the one who pulled Hyun Bin away from me. Their actions were so ridiculous that I accidentally laughed at them both. Hyun Bin and Kuanlin looked at each other. Both of their faces looked like they were wondering why I was laughing, which made me laugh even louder than before. Today I used to laugh excessively and I couldn't take it anymore.

We played together until evening..until it was time for me to get out of the pool.

'We have to get up, we've been playing long enough,' I said, stepping out of the pool. before turning and smiling at the two of them

'Will we be able to play together again?' They swam to the edge of the pool and asked me.

'I'll see if you guys come play in the water. We come here every week.'

'Uh..see you then. Today was very fun. Let's play again :)'

'Oh, let's play again :)'

We said goodbye with a faint smile. I turned and walked into the condo. Today was a day where I had so much fun that I was in a good mood and smiled all the time until my father asked me to tell him that I had met a new friend and that we had already made an appointment to go swimming together again. Dad who heard this smiled and was relieved that I didn't have to sit and be bored when I came to see him at the condo. I thought the same.

After that day, I will count the days until I can go see my father at the condo again. It's not because I really want to see my father. But I'd rather go play in the water with those two. I really am a terrible child. Haha.

Until one week had passed and I was standing on the bus with a backpack containing my favorite swimsuit. The car was headed towards my father's condo as usual, but this time I was especially excited because I would be able to meet the two of them. I'm still shocked at myself why I wanted to meet them this much. When I arrived, I greeted my father as usual and then sat on my phone, waiting for my time to go swimming to be the same as last time.

I was very confident that I would definitely meet these two but I was disappointed. When I came down to the pool, I didn't see anyone. At first, I thought it would be a slow descent, so I went swimming and waited, but even then, I still couldn't see the two of them. Until the time I had to go up, I couldn't even see the tips of their hair. even It's so disappointing. We've already made an appointment.

I could only keep my feeling disappointed and come out of the pool. Ready to think that Hyun Bin and Lin won't be free today. Next week, I'll see both of them. But after that day we never saw each other again. Even though I went swimming at the same time on the same day, I still couldn't find it. Until several months passed and I entered high school as a 4th grade student.

The body has changed more than before, the body has matured. My height has increased until now I am the tallest boy in the room, plus I have better looks and there are no shortage of girls and guys coming to me. But entering high school made me busier to the point where I didn't have time to visit my father as often as I had to in middle school.

We almost didn't go anymore, but we still talked on the phone as usual. As for the matter of Hyun Bin and Kuanlin, I have already put them in a drawer. It's been such a long time since we've seen each other that I've given up on trying to figure out if I'll meet the two of them, or maybe they've already moved on. Who knows?

I lived a normal student life until the summer break. I didn't forget to call and make an appointment with my father that I would come and see him. He was very happy to see me after not seeing him for a while. But everything was the same as before. Father had to finish his work first. So I asked to go sit at the swimming pool like in the old days. But I didn't take my favorite swimsuit with me. It was still hanging in the closet from several months ago. There was only a thick novel in my hand.

I come downstairs Everything seemed the same, especially the fact that there were no people swimming. Everything seemed so peaceful that I fell asleep. The book I picked up but didn't read served to cover my face while lying in a comfortable chair. A gentle breeze blew gently. But the sound that was once quiet now had the sound of water splashing back and forth.

Have the children come to play?

I took out the book Then I looked at the swimming pool. Two men my age were lapping water at each other like the kids I once knew. They turned to look at me and smiled widely.

'Aren't you lonely sitting alone? Let's play together' again? :)'

Hyun Bin shouted to me. Those familiar words made me smile wider again. They swam him and clung to the side of the pool near where I was sitting.

'Where have you guys been?' I asked. My heart began to tremble. I really thought I would never see them again. 'We've been waiting for you guys here many times.'

'Sorry, there's a little matter. So I have to go back to my house,' Kuanlin replied. They looked so guilty that I didn't dare ask any more questions. We were silent for a while before it was me who started speaking.

'Let's go get a swimsuit first.'

'Hurry,' Kuanlin repeated. He also splashed water on me until my shirt was slightly wet.

'Hey, this one,' I made a move to throw the book in my hand at him but he just made a gesture. This book is so expensive that I saved up money for a long time before I could buy it.

'You can go get it. I won't be able to play anymore,' Kwon Bin warned.

'Okay,' I got up and turned around and prepared to run into the room to get a swimsuit. 'Don't go anywhere again,' I didn't forget to turn around and repeat. I'm afraid they'll disappear again.

'Promise, this time I won't go anywhere,' Kuanlin shouted back, smiling and showing off his gums. With Hyun Bin beside him, who was smiling equally wide. I smiled at them again and opened the door, ready to go into the building if there was no sound from behind calling me first.

'Sunho!'

'What else? Will we be able to get dressed?'

'I miss you!!' Kuanlin and Hyun Bin shouted together. They looked at my face, which was probably about to turn the color of a fresh tomato. The two of them made my heart beat again.

'Yes...I was thinking the same thing!' Finished saying, I immediately ran into the building. I was afraid they would know how hard my heart was beating.
