She reads those words again and again, trying to perfectly understand those straightforward and blunt bunches of letters; until finally, tears started to fall one after the other.

She doesn’t seem to notice the tears as she continues to read the whole article. Word by word, she embeds them on her mind, heart, and soul; like a tattoo, it will stay forever with her as a reminder.

“We’ll fix you, unnie. You’ll be alright.”

I hope so.

But I know I won’t be.
