The strawberry kiss

Now Hani’s sulking mood was on as her parents along with Ha-Neul had left, she was not even meeting her eyes with Tae-Hoon. “Hani.” Tae-Hoon softly called her but she just turned her head in the opposite direction, still hurt from what happened that day.

“Will you not talk to me?” his voice quavered at the end, sounding as if he was about to cry. “Why do you want to talk with me? You will feel suffocated.” she said gulping down the lump in her throat.

“No, I never meant it. You... you can never suffocate me. Instead, I felt suffocated after you left. I am really sorry. I will never do this again. I will do anything for you to forgive me.” he pleaded, taking her left hand into his.

“No, I will not... forgive you. You broke... my heart. First... you said... you love me... then you... feel suffocated... because of me... I hate you... Don’t talk... to me.” Hani managed to say through her sobs making Tae-Hoon's heart clench.
