“Myeong Jo! Min Myeong Jo Open This Door Right Now! Open Up!”

Myeong Jo's sleep broke due to this extreme yelling of Yoon Gi. It was alread morning. And why is he yelling like that?

“Open Up This Instant!”

“Aish......I'm coming....geez...” she got up from her bed and opened the door.

Yoon Gi looked like he didn’t sleep all night. His red eyes proved it. He was panting as he yelled very loudly.

“What the.....” her voice automatically stopped.

“Young Lady, you need to talk with Park Jimin.”

Myeong Jo lost interest and went inside her room. Yoon Gi also entered.

“I talked to him all night. Trust me, he's an amzing fellow! And you won't believe how much he still......” he himself cut his sentence off.

“Talk to him. You have to. There are many things you don't know.” Yoon Gi felt a relief as he spoke his stomach out.

Myeong Jo looked at him while doing her bed, “Oh yeah? Why don't you tell me what he told you?”

He raised his eyebrow, “I can't do that. You have to listen yourself.”

She scoffed and went inside the bathroom. Yoon Gi stayed blank for some time. He kept recalling every word Jimin said to him last night repeatedly. He decided Jimin should deserve her. No one will love her as much as Jimin does.

Haeundae Beach of Busan. South Korea's popular sea beach. Though the word Busan literally shakes her every time as memories began flooding her head. But there is a need for her to go there. As Myeong Jo's new story had a mention of a beach, she needs to go there and find out about its beauty and features. She couldn’t go to the beach since childhood. All her friends would go there together. Now at the age of 27, she can finally go to her dream place. People won't believe she's a Korean citizen if they get to know she never visited Busan beach.

Being a die hard fan of Train to Busan Movie, she also boarded a train this morning. She could've easily gone there by plane as she's rich now. But having a zombie vibe in a train may make her day and forget about Jimin even for 5 hours. She's a fan so of course.

Myeong Jo took her seat in the cabin. The train also started moving. Fortunately there were no fellow passengers around her today. The train had a small amount of passengers as it was like First Class Train. She rested her head on the sofa seat and closed her eyes. How badly she wished a zombie would show up now!

Instead of a zombie, someone else sat in front of her silently. The feeling of a person being around can almost make you conscious. So she felt a man's presence in front of her. And she definitely knew who it was.

“Oh God!”

She mumbled before opening her eyes.

Yep, Park Jimin was sitting in front of her with his eye smile. He looked kinda cute today. Inside her mind, she really wanted to kill this man! How come he follows her all the time everywhere?!

“Aish, Park Jimin! Why are you here?” she asked; crossing her arms.

“Oh, Myeong Jo. Didn’t see you there. Wah, we are going to Busan together? What a coincidence! Or fate you can say?” he slightly smirked.

Myeong Jo was done with his cheesy words and opened a magazine to read. Of course, to avoid him. She held the magazine higher so that the cover would hide his face.

“I can still see you.”

By his words, she knew the magazine cover had her photoshoot. Why the hell did her photo had to be published in this magazine?

She quickly put the magazine aside and looked out the window; resting her chin over her palm. Jimin really found her actions too cute. She doesn’t know how to act strong in front of him. She gets nervous and all weaky stuff. She fails to do anything correct and ends up being cute to him.

The whole ride both of them didn’t talk. They didn’t want to feel uncomfortable around so they pretended they never saw each other.

She walked beside the shore where seagulls kept flying around. Every beach is known for its summer breaze. Well only if it is summer. But that time it was winter. So actually not many people came to the beach. Though she knew she won't be alone.

As her footprints were printed on the wet sand and they took time to disappear, Jimin kept putting his feet on hers. Usually it's the other way around. The boyfriend would walk forward; leaving footprints so that the girlfriend can walk over them. It is a couple thing. But look at them! The girl is walking forward and the boy is following her from behind with putting his feet on her footprints.

Myeong Jo felt cold vibes instead of chill. The air was cold to her. Yet she kept walking and observing how every wave dances with the land. Her hair was flying in the wind and her dress was also flying slightly. Making her the most beautiful woman to the man who's just following behind her. Walking in the beach would remind you to walk with your partner; holding hands. Jimin really wished that she would suddenly turn around and gesture him to walk beside her. And he will hold her soft hand and both of them will silently walk on the wet sand.  Guess that can only happen in his dreams.

Myeong Jo on the other hand, felt insecure. She knew Jimin was following her quietly but why did it seem like she's the only girl left in the world? She wanted to turn around a bit to see him. Poor him is actually quiet this morning. Did something happen?

She among her thinking didn’t even realize she stepped over a sharp stone and ended up falling down.

“Ah!” she groaned in pain as she sat on the sand and looked at her feet.

Jimin saw her falling down all on a sudden so he ran to her, sat in front of her and looked at her bleeding feet.

“Omo...Khensana?” he asked; not looking at her.

She looked at him for a short time and shook her head. Of course, it was a lie. Her feet was bleeding so she was not Okay.

“Aish silly girl! Lying won't help you. Look how badly hurt you are! What were you thinking about, huh?” he scolded her like a parent.

Can she just tell him she was thinking about him?

“Hold on....” saying he took a handkerchief out of his pocket and began wrapping it for short time. It won't work but at least the blood won't flow down for some time.

“Ah, ah...it hurts...” she yelped in pain.

“Is it supposed to give you comfort?” he mumbled under his breath. It's been so long he teased her. Myeong Jo pouted a little and let him do what he was doing. He won't hurt her, right? Or he can?

He finished the wrapping and looked at her.

“You can't walk, can't you?”

She gulped down her throat, “Sure I can. I am fine.”

Adamant her had to stand up on her feet. The sand tickled the wounded spot and ended up falling down again. This time, Jimin managed to hold her a bit.

“See I told you you can't walk. You just don't listen to me.”

Myeong Jo felt embarrassed. This embarrassment was a good thing though. Her cheeks turned red and she recalled some of their moments 4 years back. Sweet ones this time. She bit her lower lip and lowered her head. Don't think Jimin didn’t saw her blush.

“Let's get you to a hospital first. Here on my back.” he turned around and patted his back for her.

Her eyes widened in surprise.

“A-are you telling me to get on your b-back?” she stuttered; eyes getting wider and wider.

He nodded his head.

“I can walk! Y-you don't have to do this. And I don't want to get carried like a baby.” she knew she was doing a mistake by turning his offer down.

He looked back at her, “Yah, stop being like a baby and get on before the bleeding increases.”

After arguing for 5 minutes, Myeong Jo finally gave up and got on his back. He stood up and began walking; piggybacking her. She felt really shy. And she couldn’t even hold him properly due to her ignorance to him.

“Myeong Jo-ah, you'll fall down. Just hold my shoulders.” he said to assure her.

She did as he said and calmed herself down by saying, “It's okay. It's totally fine. It's just Jimin. He is good....it's fine.”

Jimin kept walking without any objection. He had no bad intention at the first place. Though he was feeling way too much happy inside he's carrying his wife. He couldn’t help but to smile a bit.

“Am I too heavy?” she asked innocently as she noticed his silent behaviour.

He chuckled slightly, “No. You're light as a feather.” he meant it. He can carry her for hundred miles. After all, it was his key of happiness he was carrying on his back; not some random woman.

Myeong Jo blushed a bit and held his shoulders a bit more tightly. As if she trusted him right now. She laid her head on his upper back, closing her eyes. Jimin never expected it. Did she just do that? She felt comfortable around him? He couldn’t manage to keep his happiness inside his stomach so he ended up smiling brightly. After so many years, he felt her warmth close to him again.

At night, after her feet was wrapped with bandage and she was able to walk; both of them took a train and went back to Seoul. Unexpectedly, the couple talked a bit between themselves. Jimin told her this Busan was way more different than his. The Castle wasn’t here. The waterfall wasn’t found. He felt weird around here. Myeong Jo understood him and told him everything wil be alright. But that was all.

He insisted to drive her back to her apartment. Yes, he bought a car as he was way more rich. All thanks to Almighty that the currencies were same.

He dropped her in front of her door and leaned on the door of the car; standing with his hands inside his pockets. Myeong Jo was about to open the door of her apartment but she didn’t know if she should thank him or not. He definitely deserves a thanks for carrying a potato like her to the hospital. But if she gives up too soon, he may end up hurting her again. After fighting with many sentences in her mind that she thought she should say, her lips slipped out of awkwardness as she looked back at him.

“Why don't you come inside?”

Jimin was way too surprised by her offer. I mean was he in a dream? Did she really ask him to come inside? Myeong Jo cursed herself inside for saying that out of all things.

“I have my hotel as my own. I can stay there.” Jimin still tested her. Whether she said it just out of mercy and gratefulness or she really meant it.

”It's not that late. Just stay for a coffee.” did she really say that? Myeong Jo was surprised that this time her heart won over her brain. Her brain wanted to say ok then go back. But instead, her mouth uttered something different. She mentally called herself stupid before looking at him for an answer.

“Sure.”
