Daisy Flower In Winter
Chapters 10

After speaking and hearing all the explanations from Hwan-ki and Seo Yoon. Hyun-ri decides to go to Seok Gwan's room.

Tok.dok..

Hyun-ri knocks quietly on Seok Gwan's room door. But there's no word from Seok Gwan. He decided to open the door to Seok Gwan's room slowly. Hyun-ri pokes her head at the door that she opened slightly, to look into the room that Seok Gwan occupied. Hyun-ri doesn't see Seok Gwan in his room. With a little nervous Hyun-ri opens the door of Seok Gwan's room wide and slowly walks in.

"Seok Gwan oppa!" Call Hyun-ri slowly.

Hyun-ri pegs Seok Gwan's room, but he does not find Seok Gwan's whereabouts. Then Hyun-ri's eyes stopped at one of the other doors near the window.

"It seems like it's another exit from this room? Is that door connected to the garden next to the villa?" Said Hyun-ri guessing.

With a slow step Hyun-ri walked towards the door. And Hyun-ri's guess is that the door is the exit to the garden next to the villa. Hyun-ri catches the figure of Seok Gwan in his eyes. Seok Gwan was sitting on the park chair where they were chatting last night.

Hyun-ri slowly walks closer to Seok Gwan. Somehow he felt very nervous and his heart was racing. Many times Hyun-ri takes a deep breath and exhales slowly to soothe the nervousness and irregular heartbeat of her heart.

"Opa!!!" call Hyun-ri slowly and sit down next to Seok Gwan.

"May I stay here and accompany you?" Lirih asked Hyun-ri who still did not get any response from Seok Gwan, who remained sitting quietly facing the open ocean with his cold face.

"Opa!!!" call Hyun-ri back. "You're mad at me?" hyun-ri asked softly and lowered her head in sadness and a little guilt.

"No" Seok Gwan briefly replied without turning his head towards Hyun-ri.

Hyun-ri who heard Seok Gwan's answer, immediately raised his head and stared fixedly at Seok Gwan who was still faithful looking at the ocean. Which may be more beautiful than Hyun-ri, until he feels at home looking at the open sea..

"You're upset. You're not even looking at me at all. And.. Your answer is also very short" said Hyun-ri lethargic.

"sorry. I'm not telling you the truth, I just don't want you guys to fight like that. I'm the.."

"You're worried about that bastard? Yes I know!! Sorry for beating up the guy you like" Cut cynical Seok Gwan and stare hard at Hyun-ri.

"Opa!" Hyun-ri's soft words and her bead quivered in fear of Seok Gwan's sharp gaze on her for the first time.

"Why Hyun-ria? You like her a lot, don't you? You want to hit me and avenge what I did to that guy you like? Do it!!! Hit me like I hit that guy you like. And you can go to see him or need you to be able to date him" said coldly Seok Gwan still with a sharp gaze locking Hyun-ri's bead in his gaze. Till...

Plaakkp...

Hyun-ri slaps hard on Seok Gwan's left cheek. With a roar of breath hunting Hyun-ri got up from her seat and returned Seok Gwan's sharp gaze. He can't hold back anymore.

"You need to know oppa. I like Gun-yo oppa, because he saved me from men who wanted to be rude to me. I just liked him because I was grateful that he helped me and couldn't be more than that. I love you, Kim Seok Gwan!!! It's just you here!! and all this time I tried to ignore my feelings for you" Hyun-ri said by hitting her chest and holding her sob. His heart throbbed pain.

Hyun-ri finally reveals everything. All the feelings that he kept for years, the feelings that he always tried to kill and he ignored. But today, all those feelings he expressed and he overflowed with emotions that were stirring. Unknowingly Hyun-ri sheds her tears that she tried to hold back, so that she does not cry in front of Seok Gwan.

"Hyun..Hyeon-ria!" Call Seok Gwan as he sees Hyun-ri crying in front of him and that's why.

Seok Gwan gets up from his seat and approaches Hyun-ri before him and tries to hug and calm Hyun-ri down. But..

"You're a selfish oppa. You're selfish!!!! I don't want to talk to you" Hyun-ri said as she avoided stepping back a few steps as Seok Gwan approached and wanted to hug her.

"And don't see me for a while" said Hyun-ri still with his sobbing.

"Hyun-ria!! I beg you, forgive me. I'm.."

"Quite oppa, I don't want to talk to you"

Hyun-ri immediately runs away leaving Seok Gwan who is silent at his place. Seok Gwan held onto his chest that was throbbing pain. He has hurt the feelings of those he has loved, the first love of Seok Gwan, the first person Seok Gwan loves and the first person to have the deepest place in his heart.

Seok Gwan felt foolish and regretful. Because he doesn't realize that Hyun-ri also has the same feelings as him. If Seok Gwan doesn't indulge his fears first, maybe Seok Gwan will get his love from the past. Without it being selfish to his own heart and his own feelings.

"Yahoooooooooo!!!!!!" seok Gwan shouted in frustration

"I'm a fool, Hyun-ria. I'm stupid. Ii'm sorry. Sorry Hyun-ria"

Regrets always come at the end. But don't think it's possible to fix it again. Because, from that regret, we learned a valuable lesson. Not to repeat the same thing and try to be better.

In every life will always provide valuable lessons. It can be through regrets, bad things in the past or actions that we do to others. Everything will be a lesson in life as time goes on.

Like Seok Gwan and Hyun-ri. Maybe they are both just as sorry for not expressing their feelings for each other. They choose to be selfish for their own hearts and feelings because of their friendship. And when they both know about each other's feelings, but instead it becomes the pain they feel. Hyun-ri who is dishonest about her closeness with Gun-yo becomes a distortion of anger for Seok Gwan. Hyun-ri, who does not accept Seok Gwan's words, tells him to be with another man after Hyun-ri finds out that Seok Gwan has the same feelings as him, is also ignited by anger. Seok Gwan still doesn't confess his feelings for Hyun-ri.

I don't know what their relationship looks like after all the feelings Hyun-ri expressed to Seok Gwan. Will they be together or still choose to be selfish and hurt each other.
