One Shots // Bae Rona x Joo Seokhoon ✨💫🌃

S3 A Sister's Closure (35.3)

'Take care Seokhoon ah....I just wanted you to know that I respect your decision, And I'll take good care of your mom and Seokkyung.... That, I promise.'

Logan glances at Rona for the last time and smiles.

Seokhoon then nods at Logan in gratitude and smiles at his mother for the final time ever. Before the elevator starts to descend.

Suryeon shouts.... weeps and even calls for her son but nothing more was to be done.

Then the explosions start....

Seokhoon shuts his eyes as he held the female close to him. Wrapping her in a protective embrace, he doesn't cry anymore... Instead he smiles

Smiles at the thought that he would soon be reunited with his first and last love in a place where evil and tragedy ceased to exist.

Joo Seokhoon died that day cradling the body of his love... Deciding that it was much better this way than to live a dreadful and long  life without her again.

He had been through that ordeal once and he just didn't want that to happen ever again.

5 days after the Hera Palace Tragedy, Shim Suryeon, Joo Seokkyung and Logan plus Mari, Jenny, SangAh and Minhyuk set out to yet again plan another funeral... This time it was a double funeral.

Ha Eunbyeol came and stayed at the chapel for the entire time. She thought that it was her duty as Rona's half sister and also her father's daughter to come and see the sister that she had never had to be laid to peace.

Suryeon being the primary guardian of both, decided that it would be much appropriate to conduct the funeral together.....After all she said, Seokhoon would have wanted that, his only hopes and dreams were to be with her and be beside her.

Of course, being such a huge tragedy.... Seokhoon and Rona's bodies were never found.

But they still conducted a funeral just in case. Two empty coffins, to be buried in a single tombstone as tribute to the young and ill-fated lovers.

Seokkyung was buried in grief... But not only for the loss of her brother but also for Bae Rona.

She was just about to open up to the girl her brother loves.... She was just about to apologize and admit her mistakes and sins towards the girl.

But fate indeed, loved to play with all of them. As if they were all the chess pieces in the game.

As she arranged her brother's things in the hotel that Logan had rented out, she notices his wallet and car keys.

Opening the wallet, she gently smiles at the picture of them when they were toddlers. Indeed her brother truly loved her and cared for her....even when he had found out she wasn't his true twin. He still risked his life to protect her and even.... Break up with the one person he deeply loved in a romantic sense.

Turning his wallet, her smile falters as she finds another picture.

It was a mini picture that seemed to have been taken from a photo booth.

Gently stroking the picture, she sadly smiles at the 2 smiling faces. She had never seen her brother smile that bright before and it was rather fascinating yet tragic for her in a sense.

In the picture, was simply a young couple in love. Seokhoon grins as he pecks Rona's cheeks.

Their eyes filled with joy and love
It seems to have been taken during the early days of their relationship.

'Oppa.... Truly loved her
If that's what oppa truly felt and wants then I also respect his decision.'

Seokkyung could never quite fathom back then but she now understood her brother.

But she was curious.....curious and wanted to know more of her brother's love story with the girl who he had willingly joined in death.

Taking the car keys, she exits the suite room and heads down to the parking lot. She figured, if her brother had important things that he wanted to hide from her or their mother... It would probably be in his private car.

Walking up towards the Black Lamborghini, she unlocks the car and sits in the driver's seat.

And just as she had thought, she opens up the compartment beside the driver's seat and finds a small Brown leather box that seemed pretty interesting.

Taking it with her, she locks up the car and goes back to her suite.

Inside was just the things that she had been looking for. The few remnants and evidence of Joo Seokhoon & Bae Rona's Ill-Fated Young Love Story.

There was a mountain of mini notes and even letters, most from Rona and even little Polaroids and more photobooth pictures from their multiple dates.

At the bottom of the pile was a crumpled up music sheet with Seokhoon's handwriting.

Carefully taking it out, she realizes that it was a composition that her brother had created.

The title was simple yet romantic 'For My Love', she knew instantly to whom it was dedicated for.

Seokkyung looks through the music notes and finds a long note in the bottom. It was obviously Seokhoon's handwriting and her heart broke at what was written.

'For my love who I have once again left in the dark... I'm sorry
It seems that all I do is repeatedly hurt you, leave you and apologize.

It made me think again if I truly do deserve you in this life.

I apologize... I'm too greedy but I just wanted to tell you how much I still long for you and want to be with you.

Will I ever still have a chance?

If we are not fated in this life then I only wish to god up above that he gives me a chance in my next one.'

Clutching the music sheet onto her heart, Seokkyung tears up and glances at the picture of her brother and Rona.

'Although this may not have been the ending you wished for with Rona.....

You did get your wish oppa, You'll be together in paradise for eternity and.....

I'm sincerely happy for you.'
