Chapter 4

Even though Bomi always drank her medicine and did routine checkups, but fate was always playing. That night, Bomi suddenly couldn't breathe. She had been taken to the hospital to get the immediate treatment.

I had been told by her father in the morning and I directly went to the hospital to see her. But she was still sleeping when I reached the hospital. Her dad told me what happened. The doctor said that her cancer turned out to be a mucinous BAC, so it was insensitive to the EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors, as her previous treatment. He suggested a surgical resection as soon as possible to prevent the cell from going metastatic. “But Bomi refuses the surgery, she refuses the chemotherapy, she went back to her old time, Jongdae.. She doesn't have an urge to survive.." Her dad told me.

I felt really sad when I heard her dad told me that, I really wanted to give my all in order Bomi to survive, but I couldn't, I had nothing to offer.

I stayed next to her waiting for her to wake up. Then finally she opened her eyes.

"Bomiya..." I called her name.

She tilted her head to look at my direction.

I squeezed her hands and said, "Bomi.. This is me.. Are you okay?"

"Chen..." She whispered my name.

"Hum?" I kissed her hand.

"Don't come here.. Don't ever come back.."

"What?"

"I want you to go away from my life." She said as she took her hand away from me.

"W-why'd you say that?"

"Just go..." Then she screamed calling her parents. “Moooom... Daaaad..”

“Yeah, Bomi.. What happened?” Her parents were running to the room and asked their daughter.

“Mom, ask Chen to go mom.. I don’t wanna meet him anymore..”

“Bomi, what are you saying?” Her dad asked her.

“Please ask him to go, pleaaseeee.. I don’t want him around me.. Pleaseee..”

“Bomi, why?” I desperately asked her.

“Jongdae, come one, let’s give her time..” Her dad took my arm and dragged me outside.

“Noo.. Bomi, why? Why do you do this to me? Why, bomiii?” I tried to stay in the room but her dad successfully took me outside.

“Kim Jongdae, I’m sorry.. But please give her time.. I think she’s just confused right now..” Her dad said to me.

“But, Mr. Yoon.. I..” I burst to tears.

“Just calm yourself first, Jongdae ya.. ” He patted my shoulder.

Bomi was still avoiding me for the next two days, she didn’t drink her medicine properly and missed the therapy. She was broken down again, and this time was worse. I really wanted to do something for her but she refused to meet me. I was frustrated, until I begged to Bomi’s parents
