“Why do you want
to come to the zoo today?” I asked when we took a rest in a cafĂ© inside the
zoo. I drank a glass of cola.
“Can’t you stop
drinking that?” He pointed at my glass while drinking his ice coffee in front
of me.
“Oh wae? It’s nice, you know.” I kept drinking
it when I saw a little boy ran to us.
“You look more
like Junhyungie.” He said without paying attention at my reaction.
“Whatever…” I
said, really didn’t care anymore with that Junhyungie thingy.
I didn’t realize
that the little boy had already stood in front of me. He looked at me. I looked
at him. I stopped drinking my cola. I bowed to him, “Annyeong, what happen?” I asked.
“Uhmmm… nuna, nuna, may I give you this?” he
asked while giving me a candy.
“Why you give
your candy to this nuna?” suddenly
Dujun asked him too. He looked so curious.
“Ehmm… hyung, is she your girlfriend?” the
little boy asked.
Dujun nodded
right away.
Babo Duj, even
with a little boy, he wouldn’t get lost. Tsk.
“Yahh… I like
this nuna…,” the little boy sighed. I held my laugh.
“Why do you like
her?” asked Dujun again.
“You don’t know
why? Look, nuna is pretty.” He
answered, “That’s simple hyung, to like nuna, because she is pretty.”
Dujun laughed. I
patted his back. “Ssst.” I whispered.
“Thank you.” I
said, “Ireumi mwo e yo?” I asked.
“Duna, nuna. My name is Duna.”He answered.
“Oh Duna-ahh, gomawoyoooo~. Nuna will eat it.” I
ruffled his hair.
“Ne, nuna! Hehehe, I will grow fast, and
marry you.” He said while running over to his parents who sat on the bench in
front of the giraffe place.
Dujun looked
taken aback.
“Tsk, that
little boy, how dare to….” He said while glancing at me. “Pretty? Huh, which
part?” he looked at my face, “not pretty, ugly one.”
“Bhuuuuu.” I
didn’t care and ate the candy.
“Don’t eat…” He
said, “yaaaah… why you eat that?”
“Wae? Wae? He is
just a little boy!” I said while laughing so hard. “Are you jealous?”
“It’s not… like
that… uhmm…” he coughed, “he is still a man.”
“Going to be...”
I said.
“But still…” he
said.
“Hahahaha… you
are the child then.” I laughed while hugging his arm and asked him to have a sight-seeing
around the zoo again.

“Do you really
take a day off today?” I asked him while playing with birds.
“Ehmm… yups.” He
answered, “We don’t have any activity today.” He said.
“Good then. Let’s
watch movie.” I said.
“What movie do
you want to watch?” He asked.
“Just something
good will be done. Let’s watch at unnie’s
place.” I said, “hmm, Dujun-ahh? Call?” I begged.
“Wae? Suddenly, nuna’s place?” he asked, curious.
“What do you
think?”
“I don’t have
any idea.” He said.
“Pay me by
giving your heart this once.” I said while giggled.
“Oh. That was
three years ago, hyaaa, that was so long, Miinah-ahh.” He said.
“Let’s go.” I
said.
I need your
companion…
Today, company
me…
Show me your
heart…

We sat on the
bed in this medium room while the TV played ‘Sunny’, the recent popular movie.
After we were chatting for awhile with unnie
who had already married last month, we took our shoes, threw it, and sat on the
bed while laughing at each other. It did really bring the old memory.
“Oh, you haven’t
answered me, bosseu.” I said. “Why
did you choose zoo?”
“Oh, just I like
zoo.” He said while looking at Kang Sora who acted as the main cast on ‘Sunny’.
“Hmm…, that’s
it.” I sighed and took a pillow, and slept on bed. “I’m lying down, OK? Feels like
sleeping.” Yes, I felt so tired.
“You need to
watch the movie, Miinah-ahh.” He said, “Why are you here if you are going to
sleep?” he asked while patted my hand.
“I’m going to
watch while lying. OK?” I said while tickling him, “don’t be so serious.”
“Hahaha… I’m
sorry, many things happen, and I don’t want to waste this precious time.” He
said. “I’m going to lay beside you then.” He took the pillow, and lying beside
me.
He held my hand.
Touch my fingers. It had electrifying feeling. I felt my body got so warm.
“I want to go to
the zoo with our future family.” He said while his eyes kept watching the big
screen TV.
“Ehmm….” I said,
“then?”
“We gonna have
two children.” He said.
“Ehmm….”
“I’m going to
piggyback the older one, a son, an oppa
for our younger daughter.” He started imagining the future. I giggled. “The
older one is going to be like that little Duna back then. Let’s make Duna as
our son’s name.” He said, looked so much happy.
I kissed his
cheek.
“Thank you,
Dujun-ahh, for loving me, like this.”
He moved his hand;
he pulled my body near him. He hugged me.
“Will you stay
like this forever?” he asked.
“I don’t know.”
I said.
“Why?” He asked.
“I don’t know
how long it will last.” I whispered to his chest. Perhaps he didn’t hear me.
“Let’s make it
last forever, Miinah-ahh, oh?” He hugged me more tightly.
“Just accompany
me tonight, that’s more than enough, Dujun-ahh.” I said.
“I will.” He said.
“I will take you to wherever you want to go.”
“Thank you. Just
stay like this.” I held my tears to not fall down. “I love you.”
“I love you…,”
he held his breath, “too.”
I didn’t need
that last forever stuff, Dujun-ahh. What I need were you by my side now.
Then… like
really… thank you…
For...
Showing your heart...
