    Droplets of crimson blood fell voluminously like water from an unclosed pipe. Despite the heaps of shot hitting at him multiple times to no end, yet he still found a way to garner the inner strength within him. Time is running out, could he make it? He stood up to his wobbly feet, his body was a little bit of unstable. He looked around hectically, holding to that littlest piece of hope. That small hope you hold on to when you're about to lose that shining bright light ahead of you. Then, like how it happened to him as always had, he heard that voice. As smooth and soft like her fair delicate skin. That angelic euphonic voice which had became his saviour endlessly througout his life.

"Jiyong-ah ! Jiyong-ah ! Where are you?! Please,please be safe..." she whimpered insecurely like a lost kitten. Definitely, she sounded too shivery and so fragile. And his heart literally fell down and met the hard bleak floor. The maddening urgency and the stressful compulsion to hug her and tell her that everything's alright had him almost broke his promise. 'If I had to die for you, than I would. I would.' Suddenly, his incstincts were screaming at him informing about something dreadful had befall upon her. Without wasting time, he ran as fast as his feet could carry him.

Briskly, he wrapped his hands around her shielding and protecting her from the sudden threat. She recognized immediately the person who was somewhat enveloping her  with much firm and secure. The man who had messed up her life entirely.

" Kim Yumi, must listen. Forget about me, forget about all those s you've been through because of me. My face, my hair, my scars and my voice. Just pretend everything's like a sick lousy movie you had to watch for free and let it be just the way they were afterwards, which is to be forgotten forever."

"Jiyong,.. You're,.. Safe.. I thought you were-"

Aggresively, Jiyong planted his lips on hers and kissed her as if the world is about to end any moment now.

"Pabo, don't ever call out my name again. Release me, and never search for me anymore. I've become too attached to you untill I can't remember what day it is and whether it's morning or night."

"You,.. How could you say such a dumb thing? Jiyong-ah, comeback. Everything's going to-"

"Forgive me for saving you on that day. I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I really am. For being bounded to you in a way that neither I could understand. I'm begging you, please. Don't fall in love with me anymore."

And from and during that moment, Kim Yumi realized an agonizing truth yet unforgettable lesson. That saying goodbye, is a painful way of solving a problem. Because it was too late. She had already bounded herself towards him in a way that even God can't defy nor the universe could comprehend. Even for herself to be against her feelings for him was already complicated as hell.

' When we first met, I didn't want to get involved with anyone. I didn't have the time, energy and I wasn't sure I was ready for it. But you were so good to me, and I got swept up in that, and little by little I found myself falling in love with you. '

-Kwon Jiyong

“We fell in love, despite our differences, and once we did, something rare and beautiful was created. For me, love like that has only happened once, and that's why every minute we spent together has been seared in my memory. I'll never forget a single moment."

-Kim Yumi

" .... Even with love would it be enough to overcome the hardships ahead of you? Will you still stand right beside each other despite all of it? Will it all be worth it eventually in the end?"
