“Can I ask? Uhm, who’s that lady in your phone? I don’t mind to pry into your privacy. I was bored at home so I just looked through your phone… It’s just that you look so happy here. Uhmm… I’m sorry if I..”

"That woman… was the love of my life…” Dongwan interrupted her. “We were so happy, so happy together. We met in college and everything going smoothly. We were even talking about marriage and living together. But one day… She left a letter for me. Telling me not to find her… And I really couldn’t…  My world came crashing down… She was my everything… I loved her… I really do. I don’t understand why she left me. I tried every way to find her. Her phone number was cancelled. Her apartment was sold to other people. None of her friends know where she went. Her parents wouldn’t tell me what happened even though I begged and begged and begged them… I really really loved her…”

Hyoyeon couldn’t bear to see such a cheerful man breaking up into tears in front of her. So she stood up from her chair and hugged him. Dongwan cried even more in her arms…

That woman… Her touch… Her hug… Her voice… So gentle and delicate… I’ve never opened up this to anyone. But it seems so hard to hold back when I’m in her arms. Why oh why…

That man… His tears… Why does it hurt me so much seeing him cry?
