Two years had passed. Time flew for both of them, and they had both found happiness, even without each other. She wore the ring that Myungsoo had entrusted to Hoya, and it was proudly glinting in the sunlight. Myungsoo had Jangmi’s noted folded and tucked carefully into his pocket. They had a piece of each other, and it was enough for them.

Jangmi was walking around the park, enjoying the warmth that radiated from the sun with her camera in hand as she took pictures of anything and everything. She didn’t do Photography for a living all the time as Myungsoo did, but rather, it was a favorite past time of hers, and she occasionally got offers to be the photographer for some magazines and companies. Also, it reminded her of him. She kept Myungsoo alive in her for as long as she clicked the shutter of the very camera she held. She did all this as the man in mind watched her from a distance, his own camera in hand. Even though every shot he took of her was in vain and always came out without her figure in it because – damn the Fates – he was hopeful that one day, at least one picture would come out with her beautiful smiling face.

She had coped with her loss and instead lived her life well by getting up on her feet and making herself happy. With the guidance and support from Sungyeol, Moonsoo, most especially Hoya, she made the most out of her life. With her mother’s spirit by her side and Myungsoo’s ring on her finger, she was ready to conquer the world. She made new friends, got a good job with high pay as a part time photographer and model, moved out of her old  apartment and into a bigger, much more spacious apartment with her old friend Kara, and new found best friend Ashley, who she ran into at the airport when she got back from one of the shoots that took her out of town, looking hopelessly lost. She helped her out, they became fast friends, she introduced her to Kara and they became an inseparable trio.

All this ran through her mind, and smile made its way to her face as she took a shot of a child laughing as she played in the water of the pond. She brought the camera back to her eyes as the child ran over to her and began doing ridiculous yet extremely adorable poses in front of her, and she laughed heartily as she took picture after picture.

Myungsoo found himself smiling as well. It took a long time to adjust to human life but he had made it through. On days that he didn’t have work, he followed her around, watched over her and discreetly (but it wouldn’t count; she wouldn’t see him anyway) helped her with her troubles. He brought the camera up to his eyes and took a clear shot of her smiling face, beautifully lit by the sun at a perfect angle. For the first time ever as he brought his camera down to check on his pictures, he saw her face in the shot. She smiled up at him from the tiny screen, and he felt his insides warming up, and he found himself truly happy.

Myungsoo continued to watch as she played with the children, took occasional pictures and laughed like nothing was wrong with the world. He knew that she had found her paradise. But despite that, he would always be there, waiting for those moments when she’d need him. He would be there for her. He could go through life as long as she was happy.

With or without his wings.

And that, is the end of Winter Angel, the extended version of An Angel. Words cannot describe how happy I am that I managed to finish this. I'm so sorry for everything that I possibly did wrong as an author. For ing about Plagiarism, letting sicknesses get in the way of my updating.... Just... Thank you. 

BUT!

Here is a bonus ending. It takes place many years in the future. You know, another lifetime. ;) Enjoy!

“Good work today, Kim Jangmi!” The director smiled as he patted her on the back, smiling fondly at her. “You’re really getting the hang of these photo shoots. You’ll be an even better photographer in the future. I’m betting on you!”

Jangmi bowed politely with a smile on her face as she packed up her equipment. Once all her things were neatly placed in the right bags, she put them away into her parked car in the basement. Just as she was about to get in the driver’s seat, she remembered that she left her tripod in the studio.

“Damn,” She muttered under her breath, locking her car and running back into the building. She was in a hurry because she promised to meet her cousin, Sunny, in a café at five in the afternoon. It was about fifteen minutes away, and it was already half past four.

Jangmi raced up the stairs, but before she could take another step, she bumped into a young man, and he dropped his cup off coffee, the dark liquid spilling on the floor near them.

“Oh my goodness!” Jangmi exclaimed. “I’m so sorry! Are you alright?” She picked the cup off the floor, intending to throw it in the nearby trash can when she looked up and met his eyes.

There’s something undeniably familiar about how his eyes glinted, and how the corner of his lips curled up into a crooked, yet adorable smile. “It’s not a problem. Although, perhaps you’d like to replace the cup you spilled?” He said with a slight smirk, eyes lighting up. “Well,” She replied as she threw the cup. “I was headed for a café after this.” The tripod was completely forgotten. “Perhaps you’d like to come along? I’ll buy you another cup then.”

“Well, alright.” He said. She led the way back down stairs and to her car. “By the way,” She held her hand out. “I’m Kim Jangmi. I’m an assistant photographer at this company.” He took her hand, giving it a light shake. “I’m Lee Myungsoo.” He introduced himself, but for some reason, Jangmi already knew his name. “I’m one of the company’s newest models.” She smiled. This scenario felt so familiar. So familiar, that she couldn’t help but ask this:

“I’m sorry, but have we met before?”
