The next day was one of Minji's worst day of her life as well as one of the worst beatings she ever had. She forgotten that her aunt and uncle had spare keys to every door in the house. Her aunt and uncle barged into her room for their usual beatings ad saying what a nuisance and a brat she is in the morning. However, instead of the usual punches, she was also whipped and kicked until she couldn't move at all. After her aunt and uncle left for their usual partying, she called the school and her manager at work saying she couldn't attend due to her being sick which is partly true.

For the rest of the day, she tried to heal herself to the best of her abilities and rest in her bed without eating because she was in too much pain to move. Minji counted down the time until she can finally see Leo. The only thing that kept Minji from crying out in pain was thinking about the happy moments she had with Leo. By the time Minji woke up, it was already 8:28 at night. She smiled to herself before slowly going back to sleep.

The minute Minji open her eyes she saw a worried Leo looking down at her. He immediately help her sit up and checked over her injuries. Minji realizes that Leo must be really worried about her and responded, "Leo i'm fine, really." Leo gave Minji a small glare knowing that she is experiencing more pain than she had ever felt before. Realizing that it's best not to lie to Leo, she just sat still as Leo help heal the injuries that she couldn't.

Once her injuries healed, Minji and Leo laid in bed together. After some time she finally broke down in tears. Leo just hugged her tighter and comforted her until her tears dried out. Once her tears dried out, Minji looked at the clock and it was three minutes to 6:20. She was about to pull away from Leo until Leo led her to the piano. He had her sit on the bench beside him and then started playing a song she hadn't heard before.

Look. Love is a nightmare,

Time's over

Leo looked into Minji's eyes while singing the chorus. He hoped that she would understand the meaning of the song as he sang it to her with his heart.

Just as Leo sang the last notes of the song, he pulled Minji into his arms and spoke from his heart. "I always believe in love at first sight. Since the first time we met I have always love your voice, your gentleness but most importantly, I love you Minji. Would you stay with me? In this dream of eternity?" Leo held out his hand to her while looking into her eyes, pleading for her to stay.

Minji was speechless. She felt all the emotion from Leo as he that song. She knew that there was something between the two of them but she didn't know how deep the feelings were. With a smile and tears in her eyes, she accepted Leo's hand. "Yes with all my heart." Leo immediately kissed her the minute she said those words, pouring out his love into their first kiss. As they pull apart, Leo hugged Minji and whispered into her ear. "Saranghaeyo, Minji." Minji smiled up at Leo and gently kissed his cheek before leaning into his embrace. "Saranghaeyo, Leo for all eternity."

In the newspaper a few days later, there has been a report regarding a high school girl who was found dead. The police reported that the neighbours heard shouting next door and were worried about Kwon Minji, who happens to be the high school girl, hasn't come out of the house even for school. Police barged into the house and found her dead on her bed with poorly healed wounds which immediately points to abuse. The aunt and uncle, who were the only living relatives that lived with the girl were immediately suspected. They were interrogated and were immediately arrested for child abuse and murder when evidence was found.

Justice has been served for Minji. She is now living happily with Leo. Whether it is a dream or reality, their love for each other will be for all eternity.

English translation:

Look. Love is a nightmare

Time's over

A miracle has come to me

From the beginning we had started

Everything about you girl

I was confident that it will be you, yeah

(It's cold) It's just your mood

(It's strange) I don't care about that

(Thank you) All that matters is that you came back to me

You love me, right?

I had such a scary and bad nightmare about you

You left me forever and ever

Even you can tell it's a dream that doesn't make sense

Because there's no way I would lose you, my girl

Don't even leave for a second will you?

No, I just won't let go of you here

I'll accept all of you, every little thing

You love me, right?

I had such a scary and bad nightmare about you

You left me forever and ever

Even you can tell it's a dream that doesn't make sense

Because there's no way I would lose you, my girl

(ooooooooh)

I wouldn't want to see me without you even in a dream right now

(ooooooooh)

If only you are next to me,

I don't care if it's a nightmare now

Suddenly you grow faint now (I can't seem to say anything)

I'm afraid to open my eyes right now (I wanna go to you,I wanna fall asleep again)

Reality without you is like a dream where you are running away

Like a mobius strip, we go round and round

You are trying to leave me once again

Don't turn around, I'm holding onto your arm

If you wanna go, try to go

Try to leave as you step on my pounding heart for you right now

It was so sweet that I had a terrible nightmare

Since we'll start again from square one now

You're not here but everything is the same

In this dream the moment you left me

(ooooooooh)

A cruel night is endlessly coming to me right now

(ooooooooh)

I close my eyes again, taking me back to that dream right now

Into an eternal dream

That I won't ever wake from
