The Boy Next Door (Choi Yeonjun)
______________________+x+_______________________
"We had fun didn't we?", Miae softly said, her head hanging low as Yeonjun, her friend watched her with a backpack full of clothes hanging on one side of his shoulder. He was nicely dressed, a navy blue polo shirt with beige colored pants, his hair was nicely slicked back too which made him feel more adult like though his adorable baby face and his fox like eyes says otherwise.
It was just another day in Seoul, the sun was up and warm, and the wind was blowing lightly through the open window of Yeonjun's empty bedroom, although it was strong enough to move apart the fringes covering Miae's forehead. The little girl in her hello kitty shirt pressed her lips together, her face was turning red as tears start forming from her big round eyes.
"Are you crying?" Yeonjun spoke, smiling though he, too couldn't hide the sadness in his face. "Well i wouldn't be surprise, i was one good heck of friend wasn't I?" he added trying to light up the mood between them.
He noticed how Miae wasn't able to lift her head up to spare him a glance, he gently yet awkwardly pat her head making her feel even more emotional than before. She wiped the tears forming in her eyes quickly, "Don't ignore my texts and calls, you better quickly reply and answer them" she ordered which makes him chuckle a bit as he nods. He wanted to look like a mature man, despite his young age. "Are you sure you know how to even text? I won't be able to understand baby language you know.", he once again joked making Miae nudge him slightly.
A car horn honked twice outside signalling the two of them to go out, it's time. The two kids looked at each other and walked outside to the rest of the friends and family, a grey family car with the backseat open was waiting for Yeonjun to get in. He looked at everyone once more, and got in the car, sliding down the window as the engine start. "Bye everyone, I'll go now" he waved smiling as the car left and just like that, he was out of sight.
Yes, it was just another sunny day in Seoul, but one where the boy next door left to study abroad. Though as they say, time sure does fly and quite fast, and little Miae is already all grown up. She now is a high school student already, one who had just started her summer vacation. She is determined to enjoy the most of her summer break and her youth,unaware that her childhood friend, the little boy next door has also back come home.
