Chapter One: The Present

our life

Five years have passed since that dreary day. It was a difficult year for Monika. She changed a lot of things that were in Monika, that smile that she could hardly leave now.

 

Monika got up like every day, opened the door to her room lazily, sat at the dining table and drank some tea. she looked at that closed room, and drank another sip of tea.

 Then she got up and went to that room and grabbed the doorknob, her hands were trembling as she grabbed that handle and put her head on that door for a while before moving away from it and taking a shower.

After she took a shower, she got dressed and put on some make-up, then grabbed the car keys and closed the door to her house and got out.

 

Monika got into her car and went to her company OFD STUDIO

 

She got out of her car and went to her office and sat down in her chair and started doing the choreography using her computer.

 

“good morning unnie”

 

Monika turns around to see kame standing there

“Oh hey kame you came early today”

 

kame smiled at her

 

“I have choreography training today”

 

Monika looked at her and nodded softly

 

“It's good don't get hurt”

 

kame nodded softly and then looked at Monika

 

“But unnie, when are you going to dance?”

 

Monika looked at her and sighed tiredly

 

“I don't know kame I no longer want to dance”

 

kame nodded and walked away

 

Monika sighed again and looked at the sky tiredly from the window

 

She said in a low voice, "Please, I want to dance too."

 

It's been five years since Monika hasn't danced since she left Since that day Monika has lost interest in everything

 

Monika loved to do everything with her even the smallest things she would do with her even dancing Monika always liked to see her dance because for Monika when she was dancing hyowon Monika's heart came alive but after that dreary day Monika lost the will for everything

 

kame sat in the ballroom and sighed, not knowing what to do

 

She grabbed her phone and looked at that picture that she wished would become real again

 

She said in a low voice:” How did all this happen...how did we become like this..... unnie where are you now we need you”

 

kame sighed tiredly and lay on the cold floor, closing her eyes

 

After a while, she felt someone sitting next to her, and kame opened her eyes and turned around to see kayday

 

kayday was looking at the ceiling: “is she still the same”

 

kame replied: Yes

 

“Unnie I don't want to intrude but what happened between them I mean all I know is that she and hyowon Saem loved each other but why did she leave her then if she loved her”

 

kame looked at her and sat down: It's the circumstances, kayday, that made them part

kayday looked at her: "Unnie I don't know hyowon Saem and I've never seen her so when I heard about her and what she did to Monika Saem I hated her so much"

 

Kame smiled at her:" hyowon unnie didn't want to leave her, she just tried to protect their love but it looks like it ruined them both."

 

kayday looked at her in amazement: "What do you mean by protecting their love"

 

Kami closed her eyes:" If you knew hyowon Unnie well, you'd realize that hyowon Unnie would rather die than make Monika unnie cry."

 

kame smiled tiredly: "I just hope she comes back because she's the only one who will bring Monika Unnie back to life, believe me kayday"

 

kayday looked at her and nodded softly and lay on the floor

 

At the same time, on the other side of the floor, hyowon got up, got dressed, grabbed her phone, and started writing a message.

 

“Unnie how are you ....I decided to come back when I get there I will tell you”

 

She sent the message to that person and put her phone in the bag and then started collecting her things in the bag, all her clothes and things, as well as her medicines that she needs

 

she heard the door open and turned around to see her friend putting some meals on the table

 

she smiled at her: "Good morning, Lip J, did you sleep well?"

 

Lip J smiled at her tiredly and replied in English:” I thought these medicines would work, but... the same thing still happens.”

 

Her friend frowned sadly: "Lip J, are you sure of your decision to come back? I mean..."

 

Lip J interrupted her: "Don't worry about me, wherever I'm going, nothing will change, but I'm sure of my decision. I'm stronger now."

 

Her friend replied, "Okay, but I want you to know that I'm here if you want to come back."

 

Lip J replied with a smile: "Of course I know"

 

She nodded her friend and got into the car to take her to the airport

 

At the airport, Lip J hugged her friend and said goodbye to her and then got on the plane

The plane took off while holding her heart

She will return to the same country and the same place where she left her soul from that day

‘ What will your reaction be Unnie... are you going to hit me or pretend I'm not in front of you ‘

 

She closed her eyes and sighed heavily

 

 

After 16 hours of flying, Lip J arrived in Korea, put on her mask and hat, got into a taxi, and went to the house she rented before arriving.

When she got home, she put her bag and showered, then put on her clothes after showering and sat on her bed tiredly she grabbed her little bag and grabbed the medicine box and ate some of it

 

‘Please, I'm tired. Just let me sleep tonight’

 

She threw her bag on the ground, closed her eyes, and fell into a deep sleep, but it wasn't until two hours later that Lip J screamed and got up, sweating heavily and trembling hard.

 

She grabbed her head and smiled tiredly,

‘It seems you won't let me rest’

 

She sighed tiredly, put on her clothes and coat, and went out of her house. It was ten o'clock at night, and it was cold

 

She was walking on that street where she used to breathe, and Lip J stood away from that house and hid behind the tree next to the house.

 

she waited outside for more than an hour until her beloved came in her car and got out of her car

 

Lip J looked at her from afar and tears began to fall profusely as she looked at her heart and soul snatched away.

 

she whispered in a low voice: “Unnie I'm back... I miss you”

 

And when she saw her entering the house, she smiled sadly

 

‘Did I come back here for you, or am I lost and only know your address?’

 

She sighed again tiredly and wiped her tears and went and walked down that street looking down as if she was ashamed to look at that street after that dreary day

 

She was the reason why Monika made Monika like this and now she's paying the price

 

All she wanted was to protect Monika's smile but it looks like she's the reason she ruined that smile

 

She got to her rented house and sat on her bed and kept looking at the ceiling

 

‘Tomorrow will be the hardest meeting, but you have to do it hyowon-ah no matter what she does to you, just save her facial features for a while longer.’
