20: i love you

     "Saebyeol has been feeling so down lately. We heard that her parents left her alone here and moved to Switzerland. That's why she couldn't stop crying."

Sunoo sighed and took a glance at Saebyeol who was crying so hard. She grabbed the pillow, throwing it away and hurting herself by pulling her hair causing the nurses to run towards her and calm her by giving her an injection. Saebyeol stopped crying as her eyes got so sleepy.

She then fell on the bed, sleeping with tears still rolling on her cheeks.

"I am glad that you are with her, Sunoo. She has no one else other than you. So, please come here often and take care of her."

"Saebyeol needs you. She told us how much you means to her. She told us how much she loves you. She told us everything."

Sunoo was surprised and continued listening to the doctor, "Saebyeol doesn't want you to live with a sick person. That's why she keeps rejecting you, but deep in her heart, you are the only one in her heart. She appreciates you so much. She is so thankful to you."

"Saebyeol wants to give up on her life because she wants to rest. She already accepts everything now. She just wants to let go of everything."

Sunoo lowered his head as he understood everything now. He finally got why did Saebyeol turn this way and now, he felt so guilty for ignoring her call earlier. He brushed his hair out of his face and bowed to the doctor as tried to comfort him.

"I hope you could stay longer with her."

"You're the only hope. You will be the reason she keeps on living."

The doctor left the place, leaving Sunoo with Saebyeol.

Sunoo approached Saebyeol and gently held her hand while telling her that he was sorry for everything he has done to her. He brushed her hair, gently stroking her cheeks.

"I'm sorry... I'm sorry ..." He muttered to her.

"I'm sorry, Saebyeol..."

  "Do you go to work?"

Chaewol widened her eyes when her uncle approached her at the entrance door of her house. She immediately pushed him away, heading towards her room but he stopped her by holding her arm harshly before taking off the mascot head. Chaewol was shaking when he could feel that he will do something bad to her. She shook her head, telling him to let go of her but he didn't listen, still looked at him with a heartless gaze.

Chaewol held her pocket tight as she didn't want him to take the purse again.

"What are you hiding? You know what to do, right?"
