"S-Soongkyu-ie." the witch managed to mumble her daughter's name between heavy breathing. "omma, omma-aaa!" cried Soongkyu. The witch held her daughter's left cheek and wipe her tears. "thanks God-hooh-you d-didnt showed- showed up-hooh-t-to her." the witch said. Her eyes began to water. "omma-aa. D-Dont die, please. Please, o-omma-aahah. Ho-hold on. I'll call Aunt Sooyeon. I will go to the palace. Please, omma, hold on. OMMA-AH!" Soongkyu keeps on shaking her mother's shoulder. "Soo-soongkyu-ie. Listen." the witch let out a heavy sigh. "te-hell your aunt every-hi-thing you have witnessed. Hooh hooh, i-i will not-hooh not- not make it. Hooh. I'm sorry, d-dear. Im sorry." Soongkyu hugged her mother tightly. Losing her mother is the worst nightmare for her. She is the only one who live with her. The only relative she have beside her Aunt Sooyeon who lives in the palace as a servant, and her brother who just disappear few years ago.
