Most Likely (1/1)

Now playing:  Summer Parade – Depapepe I breathed the summer air. I bathe in the hot summer sun. I stood at the sandy beach. I closed my eyes while savoring the wonderful and cheerful feeling I felt inside. I opened my eyes and started to walk along the long shoreline. I was lucky enough to escape from my overly protective friends and found this wonderful place. We had stayed on this island for a day and I wanted to do a peaceful and quite walk by myself. It was our last day to spend on the island. I smiled while I walked along the shore. I looked intently at the waves of the ocean that I wasn’t able to notice someone was standing on my way. I bumped onto him. “I’m sorry... I wasn’t able to notice...” I trailed off. I was overwhelmed by his stern features. I’ve never seen such eyes that could have such piercing gaze. I hastily took off my earphones.  “Are you alright?” I asked him. I felt nervous. He was staring intently at me as if he was going to get hysterically angry. After a few moments, he let out a smile. I was astonished. His features brightened as I gaze at his warm smile. I’ve judged his features too soon. I blushed. “Would you mind if I ask what song is playing on your phone right now?” He asked with his slightly high pitched voice. I could say anything. I was out of words. I panicked and quickly handed my earphones to him. To my surprise, he took them and inserted them unto his ears and started to listen. I saw him closed his eyes and nodded as the song played. I had the song on repeat. After a minute, he opened his eyes and looked at me. I felt the beat of my heart rise. He took off an earphone and handed it to me. “Would you mind if I walk and listen to the music with you? Just until the shore line ends.” He asked with his warm smile. I nodded and placed the other earphone to my ear. We quietly walked on the long stretched shoreline. I palpated. I blushed. I was overwhelmed with the warm feeling in my heart. ‘Why am I feeling this way? I’ve never felt this way before.’ I thought to myself. We continued our long and quiet walk on the shore. We had reached the end of the shore line and he took off his piece of the earphone. He looked at me and said, “Thank you. You helped me a lot.” I smiled at him but wondering what help was I able to provide. “It’s Summer Parade by Depapepe,” I said. He was startled by my response. He was lost for words for a while.  “Oh!...I... uh...  I’m sorry... I-I wasn’t able to introduce myself. My name is Jiyong Kwon.” He stuttered and stretched out his hand for a shake. “It’s a pleasure meeting you, Mr. Jiyong Kwon. My name is Sandara Park.” I replied and we shook hands. I heard my friends shouting my name from the other side of the beach. I looked at them and waved. I looked back at him and made a bow. I turned around and started to walk towards my friends. I was about to put my earphones to my ear when he suddenly said, “Will I be able to see you again, Miss Park? If you don’t mind.” I turned my head and smiled. “You can find me on instagram #SummerParade.” I replied showing him a hashtag sign with my fingers.  “There will be a lot of results if I would search you through a hashtag.” He said playfully. “I know,” I quickly replied. I inserted my earphones to my ear and started to run towards my screaming friends.“Geez Louise, Dara! You made us worry!” Bom said. “Mianhe. I was just trying to have some solitary time before we actually head back to the city.” I replied solemnly. “We understand, Dara. It has been a fun vacation for us all. It is such a waste living such a wonderful island. However, you must always inform us if ever you would like to head off on your own again. It’s just for your safety.” Chaerin sternly said. “Anyway, our boat has just arrived. We have to hurry before it leaves.” Minzy said in an urgent manner. We hasted back to our camp site and started to pack all our things. We ran to the pump boat which was the only main transportation to the beautiful island we were currently at. As I climbed up, I saw Jiyong with a beautiful girl beside him on the far corner of the boat. I tried to avoid looking at them since the boat was not crowded. We smoothly sailed back to the city. When we had arrived, we carefully got off the boat one by one. When we had finally set our foot on land, I saw Jiyong trying to help the beautiful lady with him get off the boat. He stretched his hands to offer his help but the girl didn’t bother to take it. ‘I guess, they had a fight. That must be the reason why he thanked me  a while ago.’ I thought in a nonchalant manner. We slowly walked towards our awaiting car to drive back to our own homes. A day after, I was on my computer trying to post and edit the photos we took while we were on the secluded island. I posted on my instagram all my edited photos and videos. I suddenly remembered Jiyong. I let out a smile as I started to reminisce our quiet walk together. After a few moment of reminiscing, I took my phone out and placed it on the table. I turned it on and selected the song we were listening. I took a screenshot of the song playing and hastily posted it on my instagram account.#SummerParade with love.#Depapepe I never expected much if he would look for me or not. He had a girlfriend, anyway. However, I felt the need of posting it. Maybe, I was hoping to see him again, too. I felt the need of kicking myself for falling for him. I continued on posting the photos and
