"Appa, I made it!" you declared, standing before your parents' grave, the words spilling from your lips with a mix of joy and triumph. Unlike five years ago, when tears of grief stained your cheeks, today your heart swelled with pride, lighting up your face with an uncontainable beam.
Five years had passed since that life-altering moment, a decision etched into your heart: to achieve the dream you and your father had shared—to become a doctor. You had embarked on this journey with unwavering resolve, studying late into the night, often fueled by coffee and determination, sidestepping every distraction that dared to divert you from your purpose.
The path hadn't always been smooth. There were times when you felt the weight of loneliness, even living in a college dorm with three other girls. The pressure of medical school was relentless; it pushed you to the brink and tested your resilience. Many nights, exhaustion threatened to overwhelm you, and self-doubt crept into your thoughts like an uninvited guest.
Yet, through every challenge, your father's promise echoed in your heart—a promise made in that heartfelt letter. Whenever loneliness settled in, you remembered that he was always there, a part of you, cheering you on from within. In moments of despair, when giving up seemed easier, you would close your eyes and envision your parents' proud faces, igniting the fire in your heart once more. This journey was not just yours; it was a tribute to their love, their sacrifices, and the dream you all held dear.
And now, standing at their graves, a wave of gratitude washed over you. Today marked the culmination of your struggle, a milestone you had fought so hard to achieve. You wore a brand new white doctor's coat over your casual clothes, the fabric crisp and clean against your skin, a symbol of all the late nights, relentless studying, and the countless sacrifices made along the way.
Pinned above the left side of your chest was a lanyard that read, "Dr. Kang Y/n, Age: 24, Department: General Surgery." Each word glimmered in the sunlight, a testament to your hard work and unwavering dedication. You couldn't help but smile wider, your chin held high, the weight of the past five years lifting off your shoulders, replaced by an overwhelming sense of accomplishment.
