Down Memory Lane-15 August 2013-
I sat on my bed solemnly as I flipped my calendar and found out what date it was today...
"Mommy! -sniffs- Mommy!" a little girl of the age of 4 barged into the room.
"What happened sweetheart? Why is my little angel crying hmm?" I instinctively ran towards her and
wrapped her into my warm embrace.
"Mommy why does everyone at school have a daddy but I don't? I don't like it Mommy.... They keep calling
me names... Where did daddy go?" She looked up at me curiosity filling her eyes.
"Darling, why are you letting the words of mean 'friends' get to you? Don't listen to what people say, they
don't know a thing about you. They are just jealous of you. No matter what they say darling, don't ever forget that you
still have mommy. Understand?" I said gently as I lightly run my fingers through her hazel brown hair, just like mine.
"Yes mommy, I love you..." She said softly slowing drifting to sleep, exhausted from crying. I carried her and
went to sit on the bed, cradling her in my arms while humming a soft lullaby. As soon as she had fallen asleep, I lay
her on the bed.
"Min Ju ah~ I'm sorry you have to suffer but I don't think you'll ever be able to see your father....." I whispered
letting a lone tear escape from my eyes. My eyes scanned the room and I had the urge to visit a part of my memory that
would never be forgotten.
Knowing exactly where it was placed, I went into the storeroom and lugged a heavy pink box situated on a high
shelf. The top of it was dusty indicating that it hadn't been touched for quite a long time. "It's been a year already hmm?..."
I said quietly. I went to the living room and sat the box on the floor, I wiped the dust off the top of the box and opened the lid.
Inside the box, it was filled with remnants of the past that meant a lot to Miyoung. I slowly went through the things
from soft toy's to chocolate boxes, I removed the things on top and the three objects that were the most important to me
which lay at the bottom of the box revealed themselves, two diaries, a photo album and a letter.
I flipped the photo album page by page, each page displaying a particular set of joyful memories. As I reached the
last page, I stared at the photograph, again for the millionth time. It's edges crumpled and torn from the many times it had
been taken out, obvious dried tear stains on it and at the back, a note that said, 'My heart is, and always will be, yours'.
I was never going to lose it. Never.
It was a photo of my bestfriend, lover, boyfriend, husband, Luhan and I by the Han River. A hot glistening tear slid
down my face as the day, that day when my joy had quickly turned into grief slid back into my mind like an old newsreel...
