“You’re merely living on borrowed time. . .”

17: Winter Wonderland

The trip into the inner depths of the park was much longer than Yoori had anticipated. The first time she came to this particular park with Tae Hyun, she had only noticed the playground and the wide-open recreational grass area. She hadn't realized that there was a more extensive part to the park, which led into scenic gardens that were lined with countless trees (green and balding ones alike), bushes, and remnants of rose gardens that had since withered away under the veil of winter.

Apart from the soft radiance of the stone lamps that littered along the pathway, the inner vicinity of the park area they were walking in was secluded with darkness. Normally, such a scene would send chills up Yoori's spine but the only thing running through her was excitement. It was hard to be afraid of anything when you were with someone like Tae Hyun. The last thing on Yoori's mind was fear. She was too busy thinking about all the possible things Tae Hyun could have planned for her.

Perhaps there was another gazebo in this secluded area?

Or maybe there was a really pretty rose garden he wanted to show her?

The possibilities were endless.

Her sets of possibilities were thrown into a murky swamp when Tae Hyun pulled away from the dirt pathway they were on. Yoori held her breath when she realized he was taking her down a grassy hill. She instinctively tightened her hold around his neck.

"Choi Yoori, can you exercise a little patience?” Tae Hyun whispered before picking up speed. There was no doubt he was excited. “What fun would it be to tell you now?"

A disturbing paranoia invaded her mind when he jumped over a log. "Oh my God, you're not going to kill me for punishing you this week, are you? Is that what you meant by taking my breath away?"

Tae Hyun snorted at her unreasonable question. "Yes. I spent the entire week being obedient, nearly breaking my back to give you your stupid piggyback rides to throw it all away by killing you at the end of the week."

She frowned. "Your sarcasm is not appreciated."

"Nor is your stubborn heart," he whispered, stepping onto broken tree branches.

"And what do you mean nearly breaking your back?" she asked, not hearing what he just whispered. "Are you insinuating that I'm fat?" Before even giving him a chance to answer, Yoori already said, "For your information, I'm not fat. I'm deliciously plump."

"I swear, I'm
