' Hey Yu Jin , do you want to join us for tonight's party. It'll be fun.', one of mine friend asked.
' No thanks! You guys enjoy, I've lot of work to do.' I replied.
' Leave him, I told you he won't come.' Another said.
Lately I've been very busy in finding you. I searched in every possible social site.But I didn't even a clue there. I tried to contact my all high school friends but no one knows where you are now.
Hey ! I'm Kang Yu Jin . I'm 28 years old. I works at Xxx hospital , as a neurosurgeon. I'm single . Actually I have a crush on my high school classmate for last 15 years.
Everyday I miss you so much. I am so desperate to find you. I wanted to tell you that I love you so much. I wanted to date you. I wanted to see you. Not only ever but every single moment I miss you so much. But...
( Cell phone bell rings) ;;
' Hello, Hyun woo. What's up! '
' Hey, Yu Jin, I got some information about Choi Eun joo.'
After hearing that I felt alive again. I became so excited. Now I'm gonna meet you finally. I bring myself to reality.
' Where she is right now? Give me her address.' I asked in full of excitement.
' Next week, our classmates are going to held a reunion. Everyone is going to be there. Surely she'll come too.' he told to me.
Wow,, finally I'm going to meet her after so long. I waited for this moment so much.
' I'll send you the address and time. Don't get late or busy in anything. I am hanging up first.' he told.
I can't wait(^_^).....
Finally the day came when I'll see my crush again after so many years. I spent my whole day in thinking , how does she look like now? Is she still the same? Will she able to recognise me? Wait ! what if she Is she married? Not she can't!! What should I say when I will meet her? Should I directly tell her how I feel about her? So many questions are hitting in my mind. I dressed nicely to meet her. I even went early there in case she will be there already. Everyone arrived except her. I thought she might be late cuz of work or something else. I waited!!!
' I'm so glad to see everyone's here. It's been a long time to see you guys.' Mi cha said.
'Really, I can't believe time flies so fast. It seems as if were high school Students yesterday and now we're adults.' In Ha said and further added' some of us are married now and some are still single. Some are successful and some are still jobless. I think the time we spent together was the best time. Right? '
' Hmm......ohhh I missed you guys so much.' Soo ah said.( laughing)
' Oh Yu Jin , something's wrong? You seems to look little tensed' .Ji Hoon asked.
' Oh right , where is Eun Joo? She is still not here.' Hyun woo asked.
' Eun Joo, I tried to contact her but she didn't replied. So I just left a message. I wonder if she read it or not.' In ha replied.
' Who cares if she is here or not!! ' Mi cha replied.
' You guys still didn't made up. It's been really a long time.' Soo ah said.
' She is so strange. I mean after graduating from high school she never showed up. She completed disappeared.' In ha said.
' She doesn't care about us. So what's the point of missing her ? ' Mi cha said.
I waited so long till now. But she didn't came. At that time felt like crying. I was so excited to see her. But all my excitement turned into sadness again when she didn't showed up. I was about to leave then
' Well I heard that she went to Busan after graduation. Maybe she is still there. But I'm not sure.' Mi cha said.
' Where in Busan? ' I asked her.
I immediately left from there as soon as I heard it.I
didn't wait till dawn to go to busan. I didn't even cared whether it true or not. After driving for unstoppable 5 hours, I finally reached there. I drived the car to her home. I doesn't care what would she think of me but I am so desperate to see her.
( Rings door bell)
' Who's at the door?' a voice came from inside.
A lady opened the door. I thought it'd be her but....
' Who are you? ' she asked me politely.
' I...Hello , I'm Kang Yu Jin. I'm from Seoul. I'm here to meet Choi Eun Joo. Does she lives here? ' I replied.
' You're Eun joo's School friend, right? Please come in. I'm her aunt.' she said.
'This way. Sit here. Would you like to have some tea? ' she asked.
' No thanks...I'm here to meet Eun Joo. actually today was our reunion. she didn't came. Is she alright? ' I asked.
This was my first time at her home. Back then she used to live in Seoul. Also I wasn't that close to her to ask her these things.
' Don't you know about her?' she asked.
' What bout her? What are you talkin bout ? Please tell me clearly.' I asked.
' She is no more around us. I'm glad that you still remember her. But I'm...s..sor..ry .' she said while sobbing.
I can't believe....she is dead. I completely shocked after hearing this. I don't want to believe this. I wish it was a dream. The girl I loved for so long is dead now. I freezed at that time. It was impossible for me to believe this. The girl who always used to smile, who was a lively person, How could she die?
' What!!! This isn't true,right? ' I asked her.
' This is true. She died 9 years ago in an accident. she said while crying.
On the way back to Seoul I kept thinking about it.
I stopped my car in the middle of the way and started crying loudly. I was getting very angry with myself. I couldn't save you. I'm sorry...I couldn't understand your pain.
I almost cried for whole night. I didn't sleep. I didn't eat. Next day I visited her grave with my friends.
Everyone was shocked about her death. It seems like a bad dream. And I wanna wake up. We all drink for almost whole day.
At night I came back to home. But I was curious about your death. So I decided to go back to Busan to find out the reason why you died.
Next day I packed my stuff and left for busan. Where I again went to your aunties home and asked her about your death.
' Although she was a very nice person who always help others. She never told us about her problems. Always smiles in front of us but who knew she was actually in pain. She hanged herself in her room. It was a cold day of December. I noticed her when she didn't came out for the whole day. I thought she must be tired and fall asleep. But.... ' she answered.
' But why she did that ?' I asked.
' After her mother's death she was all alone and depressed. I told her to come and live with me but she said she's fine. I merely visit her on weekends.
Although she would never tell but I know she was suffering. She always blames herself for her mother's death. I thought she would heal with time but I never thought she would do something like that. It's all my fault. she died cuz of me.' she said.
'Her mother....when did she died?' I asked her.
' During her high school. she was a heart patient. She was caught by a sudden cardiac arrest.' she answered.
She didn't told any of us about her mother's death.I think that's the reason why she started acting weird. No matter how much I think about it but I don't think this is the only reason why she died.
While thinking about this I reached at the lake where she always used to visit after school. I sat there on the bench and closed my eyes. The only person came to mind is you whenever I close my eyes. Some of your memories hit my mind. Then I completely lost in your memories and fall asleep.
After some time, when I wake up , I was lying on the bed in my room. I got out of bed and I was shocked. I found myself in my old house. For a moment It seems like a dream. I watched myself in the mirror , I was actually back in time.
I found myself back in time when I was a high school student. I couldn't understand what happened to me in last couple of minutes. Then suddenly I heard a voice.
' Yu Jin , wake up or you gonna be late for school.'
This voice was familiar. It's my mom. I couldn't believe I was actually back in time. I checked the calendar in my room.
The date written on it was - May 5 , 2010. Then my room's door opened and my mom appeared in front of me. I was looking at her without a blink.
' Why are staring at me? Aren't you already for you school ? Hurry up wash up and come down for breakfast. Don't stand there like that.' she said .
' What !! so it's real. That mean I'm back in time.!!!!' I shouted.
' Why are screaming? Hurry up or you gonna be late.' my mom said to me.
Then I quickly rushed towards school.
( Wait! now you are gonna finally see the main lead)l
Well that's me , Kang Yu Jin. 18 years old a high school student. If I talk about myself I was quite famous in my school for my looks and studies. I had always been a brilliant student. Since you've seen me so I'll continue the story.
' Hey! Yu jin , why are walking so slowly? hurry up we're late.' Hyun woo said.
He is Kim Hyun woo, my best friend. He is kind of friendly in nature. Always stays with me. Also We're childhood friends. He always helps me in every situation and knows my all secrets. He is actually a reliable friend🤞.
' Oh..Hyun woo, are also back in time? ' I asked.
' What are talking? Let's go ' he answered.
Luckily we reached on time. The atmosphere of our classroom and those classmates. It was still unbelievable to me.
'Thank god , the teacher is still not here.' Hyun woo said and further added ' Hey ! what are you thinking? Are you ok ? You never come late usually. What happened today ? '
He continued asking me but I was staring at him without a blink. Then I moved my hand towards his face and pinched him hard.
' Ahhhhhh......hey what are you doing?' he said.
' Does that actually hurt? ' I asked him.
' Ofcourse it does a lot. Have you lost your mind?' he said.
Wow unbelievable. I couldn't hold my happiness. 'Does that mean Choi Eun Joo is alive.' I said to myself.
' Attention everyone , please go back to your seats' our homeroom teacher loudly said.
Our first lecture started . But my focus was on the Choi Eun Joo, who was sitting in the first line 2 desk.
Here is she. Choi Eun Joo, my first love . She is pretty and kind . At first I wasn't interested in her but her cuteness pulled me towards her. She is 17 years old. She came to Seoul for her high school studies. But she lives in Busan. She is the first girl who stole my heart ❤️.
I continued looking at her. At that time I wasn't very close to her. We were only classmates to each other. So I decided to talk to her today. Since I was back in time I'd make everything fine. And my main aim was " To save Choi Eun Joo" .
When the lecture ended I stood up and went to her.
She looked up at me.
' Yu Jin !! What ? why are you standing like that ? Do you want to say something?.' she asked.
' Ahh....I....um...you..um...' I answered nervously.
Although I wanted to talk with but what should I say. Even if I tell you I'm from future you won't believe me. So I thought this isn't the right time now.
' Yu Jin, what are you doing here ? let's go.' Hyun woo said .
Then we went to cafeteria.
' What happened to you back there? You're acting strange since morning. Are you alright? Did you take any wrong medicine?' he asked.
' Hiya Yu jin! My boy. Why are you wasting your time here? How about you come and play some Basketball 🏀 with us.' Seong Soo ah asked me.
He is Seong Soo ah . Basketball lover. He always play around and he hate studying. He is 18 years old and the captain of basketball team. He is a funny guys who always jokes around us. Always pulls me to basketball ground in lunch. Consider himself as a handsome guy. And he like Park In ha.
