The Winter Man

The Winter Man
#26


Yura walked on the sidewalk of the road lethargic and uninspired. From last night he thought of himself laughing out loud in front of Winter at the Night market. He thought about what Winter would do with his attitude and considered himself a disgrace.


"Yura, Yura .. You're such a fool, why imagine such a weird thing, huh." Yura kept tapping her head which she thought was so stupid.


Then he looked up at the sky with his lips.


"Huaaa .. I'm a disgrace, I put Winter to shame last night."


BRUCH.


"A-auuww."


Yura fell on the sidewalk face down, making her forehead hit by the asphalt. Yura screamed in pain.


A car stopped beside Yura. Yura turned her head and rounded her eyes when she found out it was Winter's car. He quickly tried to get up and stand up. He patted her clothes that looked dirty.


"Yura."


Winter directly checked on Yura. His forehead was injured, his hands were smashed with asphalt scratches.


Did he also see me fall face down earlier huh. Aaaaa disgrace again ...


Winter circulates her gaze and sees a small cafe and then invites Yura to sit in the cafe while treating Yura's wounds.

Yura sat down with her hands scratched by the asphalt. Winter's taking the p3k in the car.


Then Winter came and pulled out a chair carrying her sitting in front of the girl. They sat close together until their knees clashed together and clung to each other, the scent of mint perfume and the scent of rose perfume smelled each other in their sense of smell.


Yura still lowered her head by bending her face. Not because of illness, but again because of shame, his attitude was too careless and Winter instead saw his carelessness.


Winter took cotton and antiseptic drugs from the p3k box. Then take Yura's right hand.


"Hold it." Winter stuck the cotton that had been tested with antiseptic to Yura's palm with the occasional man blowing Yura's hand.


Yura squealed in pain and almost pulled her treated hand, but Winter held her back.


"Awhile" said Winter.


Then I heard a cry from the girl. Winter looked up and found Yura wiping her tears with her uninjured left hand.


"Why?"


Yura shook her head.


"It has to be treated. Otherwise, it's an infection" Winter said.


"B-not that .." Yura said in tears.


"Then?"


"You saw me fall ... I'm ashamed."


Winter breathed. "No, I didn't see you fall face down."


"Huaaaa said he didn't look, why know I fell face down."


Winter was silent, he answered wrongly.


"Already, Yura ..." Winter scooped the girl's cheeks with both of her hands, Winter's two thumbs gently rubbing Yura's tears.


Yura still reluctantly looked at her husband's eyeballs. He just looked down with a red nose from crying.


Winter brought her face closer, the conscious Yura immediately closed her eyes. For a second, two seconds, nothing stuck to her lips and when she opened her eyes, it turned out that Winter was examining the wound on Yura's forehead instead of trying to vouch for the girl.


Yura let out a long sigh, this was the third shameful thing for the girl to think Winter would make her vow.


"Hold it." Winter picked up the cotton and rubbed it slowly on Yura's forehead.


After Winter finishes, return to clean up the P3k box.


"Where are you going? You followed me, didn't you?" yura asked with plaster on her forehead and hands.


"You're home."


"Why go home? just left for the office."


"File missed."


"Where's your female secretary?" yura asked in a dislike tone.


"Busy."


"Oh."


"Where are you going?" Winter asked back.


"You met Bella at the Orchid cafe."


"I'm taking it."


Yura nodded. Then the two went from the cafe to the Orchid cafe.

Arriving at the Orchid cafe, Yura took off her seatbealt and was about to get off the car.


"Yura."


"Yes?"


"Be careful" said Winter, who asked Yura to be careful not to fall again.


"O-oh, yes." Yura smiled thinly. Then get out of the car.


Yura walks into Orchid's cafe after seeing Winter's car drive away. He circulated his gaze looking for Bella, there were some visitors who were eating at the orchid cafe.


"That's it," muttered Yura looking at a girl who kept staring at the watch on her wrist.


"HEY." Yura clasped the table making Bella flinch in shock. But then Yura screamed in pain by shaking her hand and blowing it.


Bella knitted her two eyebrows. "Yura why are you?"


"God ... Yura." yura."


Bella only realized that there was plaster on her best friend's forehead. Bella immediately stood up to check on Yura's face.


"You why Yura?"


"I fell in," Yura said pursing her lips.


"Fall where? sit down ... sit down first." Bella pulled out a chair and told Yura to sit down.


After the girl sat down, Bella sat down in front of Yura.


"Where did you fall Yura?"


"On the way I was coming here, I fell face down."


"So, is there anything that helps you?"


"There's."


"Who?"


"Winter."


"W-Winter, your husband?"


Yura nodded.


"Jeez Yura the sloppy." Bella shook her head.


"Surely he's satisfied to see you fall Yura" continued Bella.


"It's not like that you know, he's treating my wounds."


"He doesn't love you Yura."


"Not loving doesn't mean you don't have feelings until you have to be satisfied to see me fall."


"You defended her, but from the beginning you didn't agree with this match. Don't tell me you're ..." Bella hung up her sentence, staring at Yura with narrowed eyes.


"That's what I want to talk to you about, Bella!" cut Yura. "I feel like I'm different from myself."


"Looks ..." Yura hung up her sentence. "It seems like I liked it first," continued Yura.


"Yura ..." Bella gaped until she covered her own mouth.


"How is this ... Aaaa what should I do, the time I always wanted to be close to him continues. Weird right?"


Bella clucked then scratched her head while grunting roughly.


"Yura ... Yura ..., the risk of loving someone first is that you have to be ready for Yura's heartbreak."


"What do you mean?"


"You've told me that he's a cold and irritable man. He should love you."


"Well, but you said that I should learn to love him" Yura cried.


"I forgot to tell Yura, she should have loved you only when she learned to love him. I see."


Yura breathed out. "Well, how else, my feelings are growing faster than her."


"Keep how?" ask Bella.


"How what?"


"Yes, how are you planning now."


"I don't know, Bella. Let time answer hehe."


"Yura ... Yura. I don't know what to say now."


"Here you go, I have a surprise for you" Yura said with a fluffy smile.


"What?"


Yura took something inside her bag. The clothes with Nathan's signature he gave to his best friend.


"Yura ..." Shouted Bella with a smile on her lips. "Aaaa Yura .. thanks ..."


Bella got up from her seat and hugged her best friend.
