Yongrae woke up early to meet his friend Shaun at the park. Ge got dressed and got out on time. Then went to the park and met with him.
“Hi man where were you?”- said Yongrae, upset, “I thought something happened to you.”
“Sorry Yongrae!”- replied Shaun, “Mister Jee called me the next day and told me to come over to his office, then one thing lead to another, and in a few days we sorted the interface of Lovoscope.”
“Congratulations man, father told me about it…”- said Yongrae mistakenly, “I meant mister Jee...!”
“Father…?”- replied Shaun teasing him, “Seems like someone has some gossip to tell…”
They sat in the park and Yongrae told him everything that had happened between him and Sunjung.
“I see so you kissed her like they do in the dramas, and she made chocolates for you…”- responded Shaun, happily, “I mean a Cancer and a Pisces make a great couple!”
“You seem to enjoy this too much?”- replied Yongrae, annoyed.
“Sorry man, I was kidding.”- replied Shaun nervously.
Then the boys kept walking and sat somewhere near.
“Anyway there is something else that I want to tell you, Yongrae.”- said Shaun with a serious tone of voice. Yongrae looked at him curiously.
“Today I will go back in America…”- said Shaun with a sad tone of voice, “So I came today to say goodbye!”
“Today!?”- replied Yongrae surprised, “What about the app?”
“Well I will go there to fix some documents with my lawyer.”- replied Shaun, “Then I will be back since I will live here from now on…”
“Really?”- said Yongrae after hearing from his friend that he will be moving to Seoul.
“You are looking at the future CEO of Lovoscope based in Seoul!”- replied Shaun proudly.
“Anyway I have to go now.”- said Shaun, sadly, “I have to clean my dorm room and pack my things.”
Yongrae felt sad that his friend would leave, but he would be back since his plan worked. They got up and walked together to the place where their ways separate.
“I’m going to miss you, bro!”- said Shaun while hugging Yongrae.
“I’m going to miss you too, bro!”- replied Yongrae, with a sad tone of voice. They finished saying their goodbyes and left.
Time passed very quickly and the family trip was coming closer. In the meanwhile, Yongrae texted with Sunjung frequently since she wanted to talk to him every day.
The day for the trip came and Yongrae was closing his luggage in his room while his parents were waiting for him downstairs.
“Are you ready Yongrae?”- shouted Oliver from downstairs.
“I’m coming!”- said Yongrae while going out of his room.
He got down and they left in a taxi to the airport. They arrived and met with Sunjung’s family. They passed the check-in and took their place on the plane. The three couples seated next to each other. Suddenly a turbulence shook the plane and that scared Sunjung. She instinctively grabbed Yongrae’s hand.
They held hands until they arrived in Japan since Sunjung was scared. The plane landed in Japan and they went straight in their hotel. They settled in the hotel in Kyoto and got out for lunch together.
The next few days went by fast as they visited a lot of tourist places in Kyoto. They visited the Byodo-In temple, the Fushimi Inari shrine, the Nijo Castle, Kyoto’s Imperial Palace, Gion's Geishas and The Kyoto National Museum and Municipal Museum of Art.
The days passed and Sunjung’s real birthday was getting closer. The families decided to start the celebrations on February 28th to catch the first hours of the 29th. It was the 27th and they were in their hotel rooms. It was late so they called it a day and went to sleep. Contrary to Sunjun’s family, in Yongrae’s room nobody was sleeping.
“Are you ready for the big day?”- Chunha asked Yongrae enthusiastically.
“Yes.”- responded Yongrae with a sad tone of voice.
“He better be!”- said Oliver, “He is about to get engaged to a woman which most men would duel to death for.”
“What gift have you prepared her for her birthday?”- asked Chuncha curiously.
“Gift…?”- responded Yongrae surprised, “What gift??”
“How could you forget to buy her a birthday gift!?”- said Chuncha enraged, “Do you know how much females pay attention to these things?”, “You are starting your life with her on the wrong foot like this!”
“You should take an example from your father!”- continued Chuncha, “He always tells his secretary to send me flowers and gifts and make dinner reservations for us...”
“That’s right you should get something for her!”- replied Oliver proudly since he didn’t get Chuncha’s irony, “You definitely did not get that from me!”
“Wait..., what did you say!?”- said Oliver to her after realizing what happened.
“Never mind that…”- replied Chuncha, “Go tomorrow morning and buy her something!”
“Don’t just buy anything, it has to mean something.”- said Chuncha “It should let her know that you picked it because it reminded you of her.”
“Should I buy her a pair of handcuffs?”- replied Yongrae ironically.
“Very funny, I am not joking here...”- replied Chuncha, annoyed.
“He got that from you…”- said Oliver to her. She gave him a death stare after he teased her back.
“Okay I will go get her something tomorrow.”- said Yongrae.
After this discussion, they went to sleep, except Yongrae. He kept thinking about what could he get her that had meaning and reminded him of her.
