One Last Phone Call
One Last Phone CallThe line rings twice...
A familiar voice picks up the call, 'Hello?'
A despondent reply returns the greeting, "Hey.."
Surprised from the caller's voice, the girl couldn't help but question, 'Mina?'
"Yeah."
The woman on the phone sighs.
'Why are you calling me here? I told you not to call me.'
"I know, I know, I know.. I just wanted to... I just wanted to hear your voice and, uh... I just wanted to say that, um... even after everything that happened, I don't... I don't regret any of it. And those seven years, they were... everything to me."
'Have you been drinking?'
"No.. No, I haven't."
A baby starts crying over the phone and wailing in the background.
'Shhh, honey, hey... It's okay, it's okay. Shhh.'
"...You know what, actually, I have been drinking, I'm sorry."
'Mina, I can't...'
"Just take care of yourself, okay...? Say hi to Sana for me..."
'Are you sure--?', and the line falls off.
The phone line gets cut off and all that is left is the dead monophonic tone ringing in Momo's ear.
Mina had hung up the phone call that had once again connected between Mina and Momo.
