3.MOM

"My baby", mom exclaimed as soon as I entered the hospital room.

I threw my arms around her neck and pulled her into a hug.

I missed her so much

I sobbed into her arms. I could hear her sniffing too. We both seperated when we heard someone clearing their throat.

"Miss Lee Hyemi's daughter?", the male nurse asked looking at me.

"Yes"

"Follow me. The doctor is waiting"

I followed him as Chris was left behind with my mom.

"Excuse me but can I say something?", that nurse asked me.

I nodded.

"Your boyfriend. He is an amazing person. He never left your mother's side even for a second", he said.

"You mean Chris? The guy from earlier?"

"I suppose"

"He is not my boyfriend"

"Omo, I'm sorry"

"It's okay thank you for telling me", I bowed politely.

I am really thankful for what Chris did. I can't even imagine what could have happened to mother if he didn't found her at the right time.

The doctor told me about my mom's condition. I was terrified when I heard him Mom had a brain tumor luckily it is still in the first stage and is curable because my mom is still young like in her late 40's.

He told me to keep her happy and avoid every kind of stress since it might trigger her in any ways.

After monitoring her for 24 hours mom was discharged which is tomorrow.Mom insisted me to go home and take a nap since she noticed the dark circles under my eyes.
Chris dropped me at our place.

"Thank you for everything"

"Nevermind. It was nothing", he shrugged off.

"Are you heading home?"

"Of course..... Not honey. I'm going to club, you know me", he winked at me.

"Aren't you tired? Go home"

"Gosh.. you nag more then my mom Byeol. I'm glad you rejected me back then if not then I would have got myself another mother instead of a girlfriend"

"How can you bring that up so easily?", My cheeks heat up because of his words.

"Just like you play cool by being friends with me knowing that I like you"

"I'm curious about something. How did you find out my mom in the market. You live far away from our area", I changed the topic.

"Ahjumma called me to have seaweed soup since it was my birthday because my parents are in Shanghai"

"I knew something was weird when you asked my mom's number", I glared at him in a playful way.

"Why? Are you jeleous?", he suddenly came near me.

I hit his head from behind.

"Get lost. I'm tired. Go and find someone else to flirt", I pushed him out of my place.

What a playboy....

I closed the door

After 10 years I got back home. It was still the same.

My stomach growled. I decided to make some fried egg with some ramen.

I found the pan which was still placed where it was 10 years ago.

The same pan with which I almost hit Gwinam when he threw a birthday party for me. The day I had my first kiss with him.

I tried to get rid of those thoughts and made my way towards the bed.

Every single corner of my house reminded me of him. I unpacked my luggage and arranged it accordingly. While arranging my gaze felt on my Baby blue bag.

The bag I had the whole time during the zombie shit. I opened the chain and looked at the things inside. My maths textbook was still there. I found a bandage wrappers which I used to cover his cut.

I opened the last chain of my bag peaking if it had something too.

I was something shining. I pulled it out.

It was the necklace Gwinam had with two rings attached to. There was a small piece of paper with it.

Shh...... No more tears. I know you are crying. I am watching you from up here, you know? It must be hard but I know you are strong. My Byeol is really strong. Did you make it? Is my girlfriend a Idol now? Even if you are not I will always be proud of you. Take care of yourself and your Mom too.
Also.....
Can I ask you for something? Think it is my last wish. Forget about me.... I know it can be really hard but find someone who is good for you. But let me warn you, only if Soohyeok accepts him then only marry that person, Arraseo?

Byeol-ah, Be happy......
