TEN YEARS LATER. BUSAN, SOUTH KOREA.

26TH NOVEMBER, 2040.

"it's been ten years, wooyoung-ah."

"i miss you so much. but i'm here to tell you something."

"you probably pieced pieces together by the stories i tell you every year. do you remember three years ago when i told you i met someone? his name is minjae. three months ago, i proposed to him. and he said yes. wooyoung-ah, he said yes. i'm getting married in three months."

"and i don't know whether you're happy when you hear this or not. nonetheless, i want to tell you that i am happy. and it'll be amazing if you are happy for me as well. i'm sure you are, you're not the kind of person to get mad at someone that moved on from you."

"are you happy, wooyoung-ah? how are you up there? i hope you're smiling and laughing every day. i hope you'd look down occasionally and smile down at us because of how proud you are of us."

"did i mention seonghwa hyung and hongjoong hyung got married nine months ago? so many thing happened this year. yeah, they got married and they've moved to seoul about eight months ago. i sometimes go up to visit them and well as yeosang. yeosang and jongho still had not seal the knot despite being together for fourteen fucking years. honestly, i've been telling them to seal the knot for so long, but they kept on saying they're not ready. but it's okay."

"i don't even have to steal anymore. i don't have to steal from the rich snobs anymore. i'm also safe. yeosang, seonghwa hyung, hongjoong hyung are safe, too. hyunjin hyung still blames himself for your death. but literally no one blames him for your death except for himself. we're all trying to get him to believe, no, to know that as well. but he just wouldn't."

"everything's just going so well for us. i hope everything's going well for you, too."

"everything's great for me, sannie. it's so amazing to see you happy. i'm so glad you met someone that could love you as much as i love you. perhaps even more."

"you deserve so much more than what i gave you. i'm so sorry i left you like that. i'm so sorry you had to be left alone. i'm so, so sorry, my love."

"but you really do deserve the best. i love you so much. i love you so, so, so much. God, it hurts so much knowing that i couldn't be with you, that i couldn't hold you, that i couldn't kiss you. but you deserve the best. and i'm so glad you have someone to hold, someone to take care of, someone to love. i love you so much, it makes me so happy seeing you're happy."

"i love you so much. perhaps we were just not destined to be together after all."
