Seungho run inside his house with a bright expression. He come to his mother and hug her immediately.

“Eomma! I’m in!” yells Seungho while he huging her eomma from behind.

“Ya! Ya! Yang Seungho, waegurae?” ask her mother make Seungho finally let go his hug and give her mother the letter that he got before. Her eomma open the letter and start to read the letter. And after she read the point part, she start to yells happy for his son.

“You’re accepted to be the guard for the one of the VIP client in Korea? Jinjja?” ask her mother. Seungho noding his head and hug her mother once again.

When Seungho was 15 years old, he entered the security guard training community in Seoul. It’s because since Seungho was a little boy, he always dreamed to be one of the faithful security guard like his father. And because of that, he pursue his dream by left high school and entered the training community in Seoul.

Suddenly, “Chukae, Seungho Oppa.”

Seungho turn around and found her standing behind him with her teary eyes. It’s Injung. Seungho’s mother look at Seungho, giving him a code for approaching Injung. Seungho understand that and walk to Injung slowly. Her mother choose to let them together and get inside the house.

“Chukae oppa. You can have your dream.” Said Injung with her tremble voice.

Seungho know the reason. It’s because if Seungho get the job, it’s also mean that he has to move in to Seoul and live there. And he even don’t know when he will have a time to go back to his house because working at the security job is really hard to get a free day. When he’s still on the traine day, he even only come back home every Saturday evening and come back to Seoul at Sunday morning.

Since Injung grandmother passed away, Injung stay in Seungho’s house with Seungho’s mother. Because Seungho will go for training in Seoul every weekdays and only can come home on the weekend, his mother is always alone at home. So, Seungho and his mother asked Injung to stay with them together and accompany her mother at home.

Seungho walk to Injung and touch her cheek. “Injung-a, don’t cry. Eo?” ask Seungho. Injung noding her head with her teary eyes. Trying so hard to hold her cry. But it’s fail. Injung finaly cry and Seungho pull her to his hug immediately.

“I’m happy, oppa. Jinjja, i’m really happy for you.” Said Injung make Seungho smile and cares her head.

“So why are you crying? I hate to see you crying.”

Injung release the hug and look at Seungho. She smile at Seungho and remove her tears, even it don’t really stop her tears at all.

“Don’t cry. I’ll never leave you, Injung-a. Come with me. Come with me to Seoul. I need you there.” said Seungho make Injung startled happy first, but for the next second, her face is turn sorrow. Injung shoke her head and hold both of Seungho’s hands.

“Aniya, oppa. How about ahjumma? She’s here alone. I can’t let her alone here. Go. Live your dream. I’m fine, really. I want you to get your dream.”

“And how about yours, Injung-a? How about your dream that want to stand on stage and sing? If you go to Seoul, you can also pursue your dream.” ask Seungho. Injung smile and hug Seungho slowly.

“It was changed, oppa. Right now, you’re my dream.” Whispered Injung.

“And you’re mine. So, come with me. Since the first time i received this letter, the first thing that came in to my mind was taking you there. Stay with me,”

“Injung-a,”

Injung and Seungho broke the hug and look at the person that calling Injung before. It’s Seungho’s mother.

“Injung-a, go with Seungho.” Said Seungho mother.

“But, ahjumma...”

Seungho’s mother come to Injung and hug her. “Take care Seungho for me, arasso?”

Injung finally noding her head and make Seungho suddenly yelling happy. “My life is complete!!” He pull Injung to his embrace and kiss her mother hand. What a happy day for Seungho.
