“No, No, No, I don’t want you to say that Chorong. I don’t want that, the person who should have died in that shot was me not you, Chorong-ah.” Bomi said as he hugs Chorong tightly

“You know what, Chorong? When I saw you got shot, my mind completely went blank. Then when the doctor said sorry to me, I know I already died. I want to die for you, Chorong-ah. I don’t want you to die. Please Chorong, please live for me. Please my love” He continues in tear

Chorong’s tear also rolls on her cheeks

“Bom-ah, how can I live without you in this world?” She whispers in painful tone

“Chorong, listen to me” Bomi holds her cheeks and said

“You will not be alone, baby. I will always be by your side no matter where am I” He continues while wiping her tears

“I can’t Bom-ah. I can’t live without you” Chorong shakes her head and said

“Ssh... Chorong. It’s just in case I'm late. I won't be late Chorong-ah. I will be just right behind you. We are going to make it” Bomi said

“We are going to go back together” He continues while smiling at her

Chorong looks at Bomi while caressing his cheeks

“Okay, I will do as you said” She said while looking at Bomi’s eyes

“Good” Bomi said and smiles widely

Chorong smiles brightly at him. Then she leans and kisses his lips gently

“I’ll wait for you, Bom-ah” She whispers

“Un” Bomi smiles and pats her head

“Are you ready, Chorong?” He asks

“Yes” Chorong nods

“Wait for my sign, Chorong-ah” Bomi said and rushes out

“Hey jerk, I'm here” He calls those shadows to distract their attention

The three shadows rush to Bomi to attack him because he interrupts their work

“Now Chorong!” Bomi shouts

Chorong rushes out toward the tunnel. Three shadows rush through Bomi to catch her. One of them rushes to block Chorong’s way

“I won't let you!” Bomi shouts and chases after them

He stands between Chorong and the shadow

“Run Chorong” Bomi said while his eyes still looking at the shadows

Suddenly, Chorong holds his arm and pulls him toward the tunnel. Because Bomi is surprised with her sudden action, he doesn’t have time to reaction

“Cho--” Hasn’t finished his words; Chorong pushes him into the tunnel

Bomi looks at her with surprised look

“I’m sorry, Bom-ah. I love you” Chorong whispers to him in tear

“No, Chorong-ah!” Bomi shouts while falling back into the tunnel.

The last thing he sees before the gate completely close is the shadow slashes Chorong’s back. She smiles at him and slowly falls down on the ground.

“Chorong! Chorong-ah! No! No!” Bomi shouts painfully

-------------------------------------------

~In a room~

“Chorong! Chorong-ah! No! No!” Bomi struggles on his bed calling Chorong’s name

Chorong who is sleeping next to him, feeling his struggling, Chorong sits up. She turns on the light and looks at Bomi. She sees his face looks very painful.

“Bom-ah, Bom-ah, are you ok, Bom-ah?” Chorong calls Bomi worriedly

“Chorong-ah” Bomi sits up and shouts loudly Chorong’s name

Sweat covers all over his face, and he is panting painfully.

“Bom-ah, I’m here, Bom-ah, are you ok? What’s wrong?” Chorong holds his face and said worriedly

Bomi turns to Chorong and looks at her worried face.

“Chorong” He whispers her name

“I’m here, Bom-ah” Chorong said while wiping his sweat

“Chorong-ah” He calls her name again while tears rolling on his cheeks

Seeing that, Chorong is even worrier.

“Bom-ah, I’m here, Bom-ah. Please tell me, what’s wrong?” She hugs him tightly and said

“Chorong-ah, please don’t leave me” Bomi buries his face on her neck and said while hugging her tightly

“I won’t leave you, Bom-ah. I’m here. I won’t go anywhere. Everything is just a bad dream.” Chorong pats his back and said

Bomi quickly breaks the hug and looks at Chorong.

“Chorong” He caresses her face and calls her gently

“You are my Chorong, right? This is not an illusion, right?” He asks her in gentle tone

“It’s me, Bom-ah. I'm your Chorong. Everything is just a bad dream” Chorong caresses his face and said gently

“Everything is just a bad dream” She kisses his lips gently and said

“What day is today, Chorong?” Bomi asks

“Today is 22, and two more days until Christmas eve” Chorong said

“This is the day of the incident. So everything is really just a nightmare” He thought happily

“Chorong-ah, I thought I lost you my love” He hugs her tightly in his arms and said

“I was so scared” He continues while tightening his hugs

Chorong smiles and said

“That's just a dream, Bom-ah. I’m here. I will always be here with my husband”

“Chorong, I miss you so much” Bomi caresses Chorong’s face and said

“It’s definitely not an illusion because she’s calling me Bom-ah” He added in his thoughts

Chorong smiles gently at Bomi while raising her hand to hold his hand. Suddenly Bomi sees her hand stop in the middle of air. He looks at her face and sees her smile doesn’t change. It is like time is frozen around him.
