Unfinished Lyrics
Sang to the tune of twinkle twinkle little star
"Oh my baby I love you.
I want to stay here with you."
"And that's all I have so far." She said.
"Yay!" He said.
She smiled and ruffled his hair.
"You're freaking 20. 2.0 20. How can you can you be so cute? Come here!" She kissed him and put down her guitar.
"Because you spoil me with so much love." He replied.
She smiled knowing that it was true.
……
"Hey I have to go away for a few months due to business issues. Will that be okay? Will YOU be okay?" She asked.
"Yeah. Don't worry. I completely understand. Just..... stay healthy." He said.
She nodded slowly. Hoping that she would.
……
Ah. Here was his weekly letter. He wrote to her and sent a picture every week. And every week she would reply. But not this week.
She wanted to reply back. I mean he truly loved her but she had to this in order for him to forget her.
Her tears smeared his letter and she quickly wiped it off.
I love you.....
……
Ugh. This girl was not responding. He thought.
It's been more than a few months now and he was getting suspicious.
Did she forget about him? Did she have someone else? Did she even read his letters? All of these thoughts were popping in every second, every minute, every hour and every day that she didn't respond back.
He knew that he shouldn't be suspicious. But who wouldn't be in this situation?
……
It's been years and he decided to go to America.
Why? Because that's where she was.
He still loves her and he was still hoping to see her again. Even if it's been years already.
……
New York... Here I am. Now show me my baby. He thought.
He looked at his plane ticket and got a taxi.
"Please drive to this address." Good thing he paid attention in English class.
……
He arrived at the address and got his luggage.
He quickly ran up to the front door and doorbelled. He had a huge smile on his face because he would finally see his baby.
But it quickly faded away when he saw a guy open the door.
"May I help you?" The guy asked.
"Um. Is there a Kim Nari here?" He asked.
"Kim Nari? Oh. Her. Yeah the thing is, she moved. She's the old owner of this house. I just moved in a few months ago." The guy replied.
"Do you know where her new address is?" He asked. He was eager to find you.
"No.But she left some things here." The guy said.
"Oh okay. May I see them?" He asked.
"Sure thing. I put them in a box and stored it in the attic. Just wait a few minutes." The guy said.
………
"So here it is." The guy said. "I didn't touch anything."
He nodded his head.
There was his picture with a heart around it. He smiled.
"Oh." He said." This is her song notebook."
He flipped through the pages and saw the song that she had sang for him before he left.
Before there were only two stanzas but now, there were more.
Carefully he began singing it.
"Oh my baby, I love you
I want to stay here with you.
But I can't, I'm so sorry.
So try hard to forget me."
What? He thought. Why should he forget about her? He flipped the page and saw the rest of the song.
"I have cancer, yes it's sad
That's why i had to leave you."
What? She has cancer?
At the bottom there was a note.
"If I could just see you. I still love you babe. Remember that."
It's like she knew I was going to come here. He thought.
……
"Thank you." He waves goodbye to the guy and stared at the box.
I have to find her. He thought.
……
He called her sister and asked for the address.
She said "1234 So not real rd. Fake city, ny 12345"
I'm coming for you...
……
He arrived and was shocked.
Why did he arrive in a funeral home?
He hesitantly walked up and doorbelled.
"Yes?" An old woman asked.
"Is there a Kim Nari here?" He asked.
"Kim Nari? Wait a moment."
She went to go get her funeral book and looked through the K' s
"Ah. Kim Nari. Yes. She arrived here last month. You'll find her in the K section. Go straight then turn right. You'll see a sign marked K." The old woman said.
"Thank you." He walked straight then turned right. Just as the lady said, there was a sign marked K.
He entered and tried to look for her.
" Kim Mari. Kim Mimi. Kim Mollie. Kim Nari." He said.
He found her and cried.
"Nari ah. Oppa is here. Sorry I haven't been here for you. I miss you. I love you." He cried and noticed something in her hands.
She was wearing their couple ring. Oh and she was also wearing the necklace that he gave her. In her hands were his letters.
She still remembered me. She still loved me.
And that's good enough for me.

Author's note
So I guess this is considered good angst(?)
It's weird how I keep writing oneshots instead of updating my other story.
