[Youngjae part]

Hello, I'm Yu. Youngjae, I'm currently traveling to Japan to visit my uncle who lives there and to collect information to write a novel. And during this time, Japan is about to change the season from winter to spring, which will be the time when cherry blossoms bloom, which Japanese people call the Hanami festival.

3 hours have passed

I finally arrived in Japan and luckily my uncle sent someone to pick me up at the airport or I would have gotten lost.

At Baan Yong Kuk

Upon entering the house, he found Yongguk sitting and watching TV. The inside of the house is decorated in a vintage style that makes you feel relaxed.

“Hello, Miss Ah Yongguk,” Youngjae greeted Yongguk.

“Oh, Youngjae has arrived? We haven't seen each other for a long time. In just a moment, I've grown into a young man." Youngjae complimented Yongguk.

“You talk too much. Uncle Himchan is still as young as he is. What about Ah Himchan?”

“Ahhimchan went out to buy some things. Youngjae, go up and put your things away. I'll have someone prepare a room for you.”

“Thank you, Uncle,” Youngjae thanked Yongguk before going up to put his things away.

After that, Youngjae allowed Yongguk to go for a walk outside to gather information and pictures of various scenery until the evening, so Youngjae decided to walk home immediately.

“I'm back,” Youngjae said to everyone in the house. Himchan walked out of the kitchen to see who had returned.

“Oh, Youngjae just came back. Ah, we're almost done preparing the food,” Himchan said to Youngjae.

"Then I'll take the things up and put them away first, then I'll come down and help."

“Yes,” Himchan replied to Youngjae before walking into the kitchen to prepare food.

30 minutes have passed

Youngjae and Himchan finish preparing the food. Himchan then went up and followed Yongguk to come down to eat. During the meal, the three of them asked about various matters during the time they had not seen each other.

The next morning

After finishing breakfast, Youngjae excused himself to gather more information until he arrived at a coffee shop. Youngjae decided to come in and buy coffee and write information. The outside of the shop was decorated with colorful flowers. The interior is decorated in a classic style that looks simple but hides the brightness of flowers.

While Youngjae was packing up his things, a man suddenly walked in without warning, causing him to hit Youngjae head-on and coffee spilling all over Youngjae's shirt.

“Oh!” Youngjae cried out.

“What day is it today? Why do you have to meet someone who doesn't look at you like this?” It wasn't Youngjae's voice. But it was the sound of a man who bumped into Youngjae.

“I more than have to say that. Can't you see there's someone standing there?" Youngjae replied.

"Huh. You probably want damages. How much do you want? Is 50,000 yen enough?"

“It's you.” Youngjae was beginning to lose his patience.

“Is that too little? 100,000 yen or even less?”

“You made a mistake and refused to apologize and spoke insultingly to others. Didn't you teach me manners at home?" Youngjae said disdainfully.

“That would be too much.”

“It's not too much. You're thinking of taking money to hit me over the head. Do you know the word "sorry" or don't you have a subconscious mind to think about taking money to hit someone else's head?"

"Huh, being a small child talking to adults like this is not good. Don't you know who I am?"

“I don't know who you are. But you must apologize to me.”

“Sorry, are you satisfied now?”

“Yes,” Youngjae replied before walking out of the coffee shop immediately.

[Daehyun part]

Who is that kid? I don't know him. I think it's annoying and won't go away. Don't let me see him again. Dad will play it and make him cry. Oh, I forgot to introduce myself. Hello. Daehyun is a famous producer who works with Bang Yong Guk.

Now I'm coming to Japan to see a song for Yongguk that will be used in Jongup and Junhong's concert, the artists we are jointly managing.

[Youngjae part]

Today is an unlucky day for me, having to meet someone with a bad personality who also likes to use money to solve problems.

At Baan Yong Kuk

“Oh Youngjae, what did you do with all your clothes dirty?” Himchan asked Youngjae who walked into the house.

“I met someone with a bad personality and bumped into me,” Youngjae answered Himchan.

“Too bad people these days. Hurry and change your clothes, there will be guests at the house today.”

“Yes, Uncle.”

1 hour has passed

A car stopped in front of Yongguk's house and Himchan came out to greet it.

“Are you here, Daehyun?”

“Um, Himchan are you alright?” Daehyun asked Himchan.

"Fine. Come here tired. Please go get some rest. I've already had someone prepare a room for you."

“Thank you, Himchan.”

When Youngjae heard the sound of a car stopping in front of the house, he walked out to see who his uncle's guest was. At the same time, Youngjae didn't notice and bumped into someone.

“What an unlucky day for me?” the other person said when Youngjae bumped into him.

“I'm sorry, sir!” Youngjae said in shock.

"Huh, I didn't think we'd meet again."

“I also didn't expect you to be Uncle's guest,” Youngjae said in a calm voice.

“Don't tell me you're the grandson of Yongguk who said he was so cute.”

“Yes, it's me.”

“How cute is that? Your mouth is tight,” Daehyun said to himself.

“What do you say?”

“No, get out of here, I'm going to rest,” Daehyun said to Youngjae.

“Relax, no one is chaining you.” Youngjae said as he finished walking downstairs to find Himchan.

“Ah Himchan, where are you going?” Youngjae greeted Himchan who was getting ready to go out.

"Oh, I'm going to go buy some more because Daehyun is a good eater. The stuff I bought yesterday probably won't be enough," Himchan said to Youngjae.

“Daehyun??”Is that black guy's name?

“Hahaha, I'm sorry, I forgot to tell the guest who came today. Youngjae has never met him before.”

“I met you just now,” Youngjae answered Himchan.

“Yes, Youngjae, are you going to go back to your uncle or stay home?” Himchan invited Youngjae.

"I'd rather go out with Uncle."

“Yes, then go wait in the car.”

At the department store

“Youngjae, if you want to eat something, just buy it,” Himchan said to Youngjae when they arrived at the department store.

"Yes, Uncle. Because Uncle likes to please me, I'll soon become fat again."

“Haha, every once in a while my grandkids come to visit and I want to raise them to be fat,” Himchan said to Youngjae with amusement.

“Uncle,” Youngjae said, standing in front of him. Himchan couldn't help but reach out and rub Youngjae's head.

“Hurry up and buy things. It'll get cold first."

[Daehyun part]

Huh, I didn't think that kid was Yongguk's grandson who was complaining about how cute he was. But it's really cute. (Who said it wasn't cute at the time? // Writer)

Daehyun saw that it was already cold and decided to go downstairs to eat dinner, but when he arrived at the table there was still no food on the table.

“Himchan, isn't the food ready yet?” Daehyun asked Himchan.

“Calm down, you come help Youngjae bring the food to the table.”

Himchan calls Daehyun to help Youngjae.

“Um,” Daehyun answered Himchan before walking into the kitchen and saw Youngjae busy arranging things to take out.

“Come, I'll help you get out,” Daehyun said to Youngjae.

“No need, I can do it myself.”

“Can this not be a big deal?” Daehyun started to get annoyed.

“I don't have much trouble, but I can do it myself,” Youngjae answered Daehyun.

“Shit, if you really want to do it, just do it alone.” Daehyun finished and walked out of the kitchen to sit and wait in the living room, irritated. Yongguk walked out of the office and saw Daehyun sitting in the living room, which was different from Daehyun's personality because he normally waits at the dining table at this time.

“Daehyun, what are you doing sitting here? Why don't you go wait at the dining table?" Yongguk asked Daehyun.

"irritable"

"irritable?? What are you upset about?"

“How can I not be upset? People who will help can tell you that I can do it myself,” Daehyun said to Yongguk.

“Who?” Yongguk asked Daehyun.

"Who will it be? Your grandchild?"

"Hahahaha. Have you done something to make Youngjae not like this? Because he's normally not like this."

“How funny is that?” Daehyun said to Yongguk who was standing there laughing.

“Hahaha, never mind, let's go eat.”

“Oh,” Daehyun answered Yongguk before following Yongguk to the dining table.

[Youngjae part]

During the meal, Ah Yong Guk introduced Dae Hyun to Young Jae. Youngjae didn't want to get to know Daehyung Daehyun at all. Plus, Ahhimchan asked Daehyun to take Youngjae out on a trip so he could get more information to write a novel. Is this my fate?

In front of Youngjae's bedroom

Just as Youngjae was about to open the door. Daehyun interrupted first.

“Where are you going tomorrow? I will take you there.”

“You don't have to take me, I can go myself,” Youngjae said to Daehyun.

“Can you please not be stubborn?” Daehyun started to get angry.

“I'm not stubborn. But I don't want to go with you.”

“What's not good about going with me? I'm so handsome I'm going to die.”

“You're so narcissistic,” Youngjae said in response to Daehyun.

“Of course he's handsome. In conclusion, tomorrow I'll take you on a trip. Don't wake up late. I'm going to bed." Daehyun finished and walked into his own bedroom. Ignoring what Youngjae said at all.

“Who will go with you? What kind of person speaks for himself?

the next morning

Knock knock knock

Oh, who knocked on my door so early in the morning? Don't you see that when people sleep, they can only moan and moan inside their hearts? (Complain inside and who will hear?//Writer)

Knock knock knock

Still won't stop knocking. Youngjae decided to get out of bed and open the door to see who was knocking. When the door opened, it was Daehyun who was starting to get a little angry.

“Are you crazy that you knocked on someone else's door so early in the morning?” Youngjae asked Daehyun.

“You can wake up now!! I'm only going to go to a few places."

“Did I say I would go with you? If you want to go, go alone, I'll sleep!” Youngjae finished speaking and was about to close the door, but Daehyun held him back.

“You must go with me. Wake up Youngjae!!” Daehyun yelled at Youngjae.

"Oh, are you crazy? Why do you have to shout so close?"

“How will you wake up? I will give you one hour to shower and get dressed.”

“I'm not going, don't be a dictator with me!” Youngjae protested.

“A kid like you has to deal with a dictator like me. I'm not as kind as Yongguk and Himchan, I told you before.”

“Sh -*-”

“Go take a shower and get dressed and don't even think about going back to sleep because no matter how you lock the room, I still have the key to get in. I'm going to wait downstairs. Good kids shouldn't keep adults waiting too long." Daehyun finished and walked downstairs. Youngjae can only lament meeting an adult who is as authoritarian as Daehyun.

1 hour has passed

Youngjae walked downstairs and saw that Daehyun was watching TV so he didn't see that he had come down. Youngjae slowly walked out to the front of the house, but at the same moment Daehyun stood up and grabbed Youngjae's shoulder.

“Huh, are you planning to sneak out without me seeing?” Daehyun asked Youngjae.

“Who secretly doesn't have one?” Youngjae answered Daehyun.

“If there isn't any, there won't be any. Let's go now,” Daehyun said before taking Youngjae's hand and walking to the car. Not knowing that Himchan secretly witnessed the whole incident.

on the car

“Where are you taking me?” Youngjae asked Daehyun, who was humming a song in good spirits.

“We're going to Tokyo Tower,” Daehyun said to Youngjae.

“Um, is there anything to visit around there?”

"You'll know when you get there."

“Tch.”

At Tokyo Tower

When they arrived, Youngjae was grabbed by Daehyun's own hand.

“Why are you holding my hand?! I can walk by myself,” Youngjae said.

Daehyun, but Daehyun seemed like he didn't hear what Youngjae said.

“Daehyun can let go of my hand and everyone is watching.”

“Huh, what did you call me just now?” Daehyun asked Youngjae to make sure Youngjae actually called him by his name.

"Did I just call your name? Or am I old and can't hear you?"

“No, besides that, I won't let go either because a stubborn kid like you will get lost. As for whoever is looking, just let them look,” Daehyun said to Youngjae before walking inside Tokyo Tower.

evening

[Daehyun part]

Now Youngjae and I are traveling back to Yongguk's house. By traveling today, Youngjae and I became closer, but Youngjae didn't seem to want to be close to me at all. I'm a foul-mouthed but kind-hearted person, but a stubborn kid like Youngjae has to be a dictator or else he won't obey, right?

At Yongguk's house

“So you're back, Daehyun? Youngjae,” was Yongguk's voice asking the two people who walked into the house.

“Yes, Uncle,” Youngjae answered Yongguk.

“So where did you go today?”

“Tokyo Tower Sensoji Temple and Nakamise Road, that's all.” Daehyun answered Yongguk.

"Um, let's take the things up and put them away, then come down to eat. Himchan is almost done preparing the food."

“Yes, Uncle,” Youngjae answered Yongguk before quickly walking up to collect his things. Only Daehyun was left standing.

“What's wrong, cat? I've never seen such a good mood before,” Yongguk asked Daehyun curiously.

“You don't have to know,” Daehyun said to Yongguk before walking away.

“Are you thinking of flirting with my nephew? Black cat!” Yongguk shouted to Daehyun.

"So what? Or are you jealous?"

“Don't let me flirt!” Yongguk shouted again. But Himchan shouted to Daehyun. “Daehyun-ah...I can let you flirt with my grandchild.”

“Thank you Himchan,” Daehyun shouted back to Himchan before raising his eyebrows at Yongguk for not being able to negotiate with Himchan.

After shouting and arguing, the four of them came to eat dinner together before going to bed.

2 weeks have passed

Now, Youngjae and I are closer than ever before, but it's like Youngjae doesn't know that I'm flirting with him. At least Himchan let Youngjae and me hang out every day until the day that Youngjae and I arrived. Waiting Today is the first day of the Hanami festival.

“Youngjae-ah, you go stand over there and I'll take a picture for you,” Daehyun told Youngjae to stand behind the cherry blossom branch.

“Alright,” Youngjae answered Daehyun before standing where Daehyun had told him.

Snap a photo!!

When Youngjae saw that Daehyun pressed the shutter, he walked back to Daehyun.

“Daehyun, would you like to see the picture?” Daehyun heard Youngjae's voice asking and pressed the button to show the picture to Youngjae.

“Oh, Daehyun, you're good at taking pictures too,” Youngjae said to Daehyun.

“Handsome like this,” Daehyun complimented himself.

“Knowing this is not admirable at all.”

evening

At Yongguk's house

“So we're back? Did you have fun, Youngjae?” Himchan asked when he saw the two of them walking into the house.

“Let's have fun. You should go together,” Youngjae said to Himchan.

“Ah, it's better for us to go together just the two of us. I don't like it when there are a lot of people.”

“Oh, right? I almost forgot. I bought some snacks for my uncle,” Youngjae said before handing Himchan some snacks.

“Thank you, Youngjae.”

[Youngjae part]

1 day before returning to Korea

Today was the day I was preparing to return to Korea but Daehyun woke me up early and took me under the cherry tree where we had taken photos together.

“Daehyun, what did you bring me here?” Youngjae asked Daehyun who had been quiet the whole way.

“Youngjae-ah,” Daehyun said as he held Youngjae's hand.

"What's wrong with you?"

“No, I just wanted to tell you that we're lovers,” Daehyun asked Youngjae.

“I know the answer. Let's go back.” When Daehyun saw that Youngjae had gone quiet, I think Youngjae doesn't agree.

“Daehyun,” Youngjae called out to Daehyun who was about to walk away.

“I'm still not sure what my feelings for you are. Can you wait for me?” Youngjae said telling Daehyun his feelings.

“I will wait for you. I will wait here until you come back to give me an answer,” Daehyun told Youngjae.

“Thank you Daehyun for understanding,” Youngjae said to Daehyun before walking over and hugging Daehyun.

At the airport

Now it's time for Youngjae to board a plane back to Korea to finish writing his novel.

“Have a safe trip, Youngjae,” Himchan said to Youngjae.

“Take care of your health. When I have free time, I come back to visit my uncles again,” Yongguk said to Youngjae.

“Thank you both very much.”

"Youngjae-ah, have a safe trip. Don't forget me, do you understand? I'll be waiting here for you," Daehyun said to Youngjae.

"Well, I haven't forgotten you."

“I'll go first,” Youngjae said goodbye to everyone before walking into the gate.

[Daehyun part]

1 year later

Today is the first day that there will be a Hanami festival. Throughout the year I came here often. Even though I know that Youngjae won't fly back. I don't think I can wait this long. I don't know what Youngjae is doing. I don't know whether I'm happy or not. While Daehyun was thinking about something, a man tapped his shoulder. causing Daehyun to turn around and see who it was

“Daehyun-ah, are you okay?”

“Youngjae, have you really come back?” Daehyun asked again, thinking he might have been blinded.

“It's me, Youngjae.”

“I'm so glad you're back,” Daehyun said as he got up and hugged Youngjae tightly, as if afraid that Youngjae would disappear.

“Daehyun-ah, you still haven't answered the question I asked,” Youngjae said to Daehyun, who refused to answer his question.

"I'm fine. How are you?"

“I'm fine. I came back here to tell you....” Youngjae teased Daehyun. But instead, Daehyun teased her.

“What is it, hmmm??”

"Oh, I'm not teasing you. I'm here to tell you the answer you asked a year ago."

“Daehyun-ah, I agreed to be your girlfriend. Thank you for always waiting,” Youngjae said to Daehyun.

“I also thank you for coming into my life and making me patiently wait for you like this,” Daehyun finished, pulling Youngjae in for a kiss.

Their love is like a beautiful flower that blooms even though the flower withers and falls off as time passes. But their love is not like that. Nothing can break their feelings and they know that waiting for someone who doesn't know if they will come back is difficult. But in the end, the two of them met again.
