" Why the hell did you do that?" I yelled for the millionth time at Jungwoo, who just shrugged still looking crestfallen.
He looked so upset, and all of sudden I felt a little sad for him. A little.
"I didn't know you liked him that much." Jungwoo muttered, avoiding my eyes.
I huffed.
"What kind of best friend are you if you didn't who my crush was?" I muttered, ignoring the sadness growing in me.
I turned around and began walking away, when all of a sudden he caught my arm and turned me towards him.
"What?" I asked.
"Look, I'm sorry. But there is this new cafe which has come up beside the park and I was wondering if you wanted to come with me...." his voice trailed off.
I wrenched my hands out of his grip and folded my arm under my chest and glared at him.
It saddened me to to hurt such a soft person, but he had hurt me more.
"What makes you think I want to go anywhere with you now, Jungwoo?" I asked.
He looked utterly downcast now.
I was beginning to feel like a terrible person now.
"I was hoping, I could make it up to you. You do love donuts a lot. And I've heard that the cafe has rather special food items. So I was hoping, if I bought you a donut, I could be forgiven."
He had his ways.
He always did.
He managed to get away with whatever it was.
All he had to was make that puppy face and everything I owned was his.
I wiggled my fingers at him.
"You better let me eat more than one."
"So this cafe's name is...." I asked, waiting for Jungwoo to reply.
I looked around. It wasn't that big but the place was swarming with people. Still, it was warm and cosy, and the smell of the cakes and drinks were making me really hungry.
"Cafe Resonance." Jungwoo said, smiling at me his usual bright smile.
Seeing Jungwoo smile again made me feel like a stone had been liften off my chest.
"Come one, I got you the Dowoonuts." Jungwoo said, motioning to an empty table beside the windows.
The cafe overlooked the Han river, making it an ideal spot for everyone.
"The what?" I asked, looking at the warm chocolate donuts, ready to swallow them all.
"The Duwoonuts. Each food in this cafe has a different name. And rumour says.." his expression dropped to dead seriousness.
I leaned in closer, ready to swallow whatever idiotic thing he was going to say me.
".....That you fall in love with the person who serves you this."
I sat back.
"Are you trying to jinx me?"
Jungwoo smiled his serenade smile.
"I don't think you'll fall in love with me. I didn't serve you. I think you'll fall in love with the waiter over there." he said, pointing to someone behind me.
I turned back and nodded my head.
"Not bad." I said, looking at the handsome young man, who had an maddening but infectious grin on his face.
I turned back to Jungwoo. "So, tell me why you did that." I demanded him.
He sighed.
He picked something from his Duwoonut and observed it.
"You won't believe me if I said you."
"Why don't you try me?" I asked, picking up my own Duwoonut.
"Look, I know you like Yuta, but he has bad rumours going on about him. I've heard them from some people. Like he's a heartbreaker and what not."
I looked sadly at my Dowoonut ."But he was being so nice to me. And he asked me out so poiltely. And I was going to say yes and you pulled me away. I want to be loved too, Jungwoo."
I saw his jaws working hard.
"If I say I love you, will you love me back?" he asked.
I gently patted his hand and gave him a soft smile.
"I already love you. No need of that." I said, and sank my teeth into the Duwoonut.
I felt the taste explode in my mouth.
The warmth, the sweetness, the chocolate, everything was so perfect.
I felt insides warm up with every bite of the Duwoonut.
"Do you like it?" Jungwoo asked, peering at me through the top of his Dowoonut.
I grinned at him with my chocolate sauce covered lips.
"I loved it! This- this is the best donut in the world! We should come here more often!" I exclaimed.
Jungwoo grinned at me, looking genuinely happy.
All of a sudden, I felt my heart flutter.
I immediately looked away.
What was wrong with me?
We walked side by side beside the Han river, our shoulders gently brushing each other's.
There were a lot of other couples walking around us and for some reason, I was getting this mad urge to grab Jungwoo's hand in mine.
"So." I said itching for more warmth from him.
"So?" Jungwoo asked.
It was a cold and rather windy day and I could feel the goosebumps all over my arm under my thin jacket.
"I'm cold." I stated.
Jungwoo turned towards me, looking concerened.
"Do you need my jacket?" He asked, already taking it off.
"I-" I began but he had already placed in on my shoulders.
He gave me another heart fluttering smile, gently grabbed my hand and began walking.
Far down the road, I saw a couple sitting on the bench.
The woman's head rested on the man's shoulder while he held her close. They both looked so warm and snuggly together that I had a mad urge to snuggle into Jungwoo.
All of a sudden I stopped, realisation dawning on me.
Jungwoo too stopped and turned towards me, concern etched on his face.
Maybe it was the way the wind blew his hair, or maybe it was just the look of concern for me plastered on his beautiful delicate face, but I knew I was in love.
I knew I was in love from the way my body ached to be touched by him.
I knew I was in love from the way my heart fluttered every time he smiled at me.
I knew I was in love because I cried when he cried, I laughed when he laughed and I smiled when he smiled.
I loved his laughter, I loved his smile, I loved his tears, I loved the very existence of him.
"I'm in love." I whispered.
He tilted his head in confusion, his cuteness making my heart flutter once more.
"What?" He asked, coming a bit closer.
I stepped in closer until I could feel his breath hit my face.
"I said," I whispered, "I'm in love. With you."
He stared at me with an open mouth.
Then slowly, he leaned in until our foreheads were touching each other's.
"Well," he began, "it so happens that even I'm in love with you." he whispered back.
And then he leaned in more and pressed his lips against mine.
My eyes fluttered close, as a feeling of warmth spread all across my body.
I wrapped my arms around him and he wrapped his around my waist, pulling me in closer.
Finally, we broke the kiss to catch our breaths.
I felt myself smile as he leaned in once more to brush his lips against mine.
"Do you think it was the Duwoonuts?" he asked.
I laughed lightly.
"I think its just us."
