4. The Winner Takes It All
Melody of LoveBut tell me does she kiss
Like I used to kiss you?
Does it feel the same
When she calls your name?
Somewhere deep inside
You must know I miss you - The Winner Takes It All
Sunhwa let her fingers to move on their own as she only stared on them. There were a paper and a pen lying in front of her, ready to be used. She took a deep breathe as she glanced outside of her window. Looking at the snow which was falling painfully slow outside. She shook her head, telling herself to focus and start.
“Dear Seungho.
How long has it been since I last saw you? I bet it’s going to be a year in the New Year Eve right? Time flies very fast. However, the pain that you gave me is not gone. Instead, it’s getting deeper each day. Sometimes I would imagine the day you’re sorry for what you did to me, to leave me alone. But that day has never come.

It wasn’t until that day when we finally met for the first time after our break up that I could tell that you have killed a part of me which was still hoping for you. Do you remember that time?
I went to the place we usually went when we wanted peace as it was my birthday and for the first time after two years, I’m alone. Wasn’t it ten months after we broke up? It was a place that you showed me back then and you told me that it was our place and nobody should go to that place beside us. It was an abandoned park in a small city outside Seoul.
