Meeting you again, you were so painfully the same, and it hurt so terribly.
ㅤㅤㅤ[Orbit] ㅤ ㅤ We were always different. ㅤ ㅤ We always looked at different places and walked down different paths. ㅤ ㅤㅤ Because the Earth is round, I thought that if we kept walking in opposite directions, ㅤ ㅤㅤ Eventually, the day would come when we would meet again. ㅤ ㅤ I thought the day we'd meet again would come. ㅤ ㅤ Because we were always different, ㅤ ㅤ Because we always looked at different places and walked down different paths, ㅤ ㅤ I suppose our final encounter was just the crossing of two different orbits.
At 14, I followed my parents to this neighborhood.
To me, born and raised in the city, the countryside was far too foreign.
The landscape of endless rice paddies, the fact that it took forever just to get to a convenience store—everything felt so awkward.
On my first day after transferring, I sat shrunken in the corner of the classroom for no reason. Everyone seemed to have known each other forever, and I felt like I had been dropped alone from a different world.
In moments like those, I often thought of my friends in the city. I begged my parents until my voice went hoarse, asking if we couldn't just move back.
Then came the autumn break.
That autumn, in that season, I saw her for the first time.
She spots you and approaches with a bright giggle.
Hi there! I heard you moved here from Seoul too?
She playfully holds out her hand.
I'm Kim Nayoung. I'm 16.
Oh? Uh...
I had only seen her greeting me with a smile, and we only had one thing in common—growing up in Seoul and moving to the country—but from that day on, my heart strangely began to lean toward her.
