Chapter 15: A long conversation

"Do you know me?" Eun Hye asked wearing shiny eyes.

"I do." Sang je shyly smiled.

"Then, my name?"

"Eve.. you are my Eve." His heart skipped a beat.

"Then, you must be Adam?"

"Yes. So you do remember." Sang je was relieved, "I knew for sure that my Eve would definitely recognise me."

"Hmm.. we must have been in a deep relationship. But, you know, I don't remember much. Would you help me recollect those memories?"

"I have been preparing for this day since long. Now that we have met, we will get a lot of time to reminisce.."

"Well... I don't think we will get that much of time..uhm.. You stay here, I will be going back to Seoul soon. I have my clinic there, I can't stall my patients for a long ."

"Actually I also don't live here.. I fortunately got stuck in this island..but I have a small cottage in Jeju. And if you can't come with me.. I will just follow you!"

It must have been the first time that Sang je had used his tongue for this long a conversation.

"Well, that'd be great but ...uhm..it's.. just that, you can't follow me around looking like that.. why do you have such long hair.. you seem like you haven't washed for years.. are..you..by any chance..short of funds..maybe?" Eun Hye asked.

"No..no.. that's not it.. I just didn't get any time to do that.." Sang je laughed a little.

"So, you are a busy person.. I see."

They were still standing in the middle of that small island, where they met. When long lost friends meet they end up losing the track of time or location.. Maybe that's what happened here too!
