The last year has been a rollercoaster of emotions. I can barely remember who I was before and the person I became after leaving my timeline. Right now. I would live in 2023, standing beside my father and probably away from my friends and partner. Yet, I left my past behind after the day I promised Taeyang to be with him regardless of the consequences of this lifetime. Ever since then, I took the watch off my wrist and hid it away. At first, I thought something would happen, but later, I discovered how taking it off didn't alter anything around me.
My memory got wiped away after a year in this timeline, and I only remember my past since I wrote down the essential information I should understand. It feels off to believe that I had another life; after all, I can't recall what happened when I arrived. Moreover, I don't think I lived in another timeline; it sounds fake and nonsensical in my head.

Hour: 03:00 p.m.
Seoul, South Korea.
I'm in the last week of filming for my latest series: "Before the Snow." Today, my co-star Yon Eunjoo and I; are wrapping up the shooting with a very passionate scene. My character, Yongsu, will say goodbye to Eunjoo's, Shiwon. Both lovers will part ways due to the tension between families and social classes.
I continue to look at Eunjoo while holding her cheek with my right hand. I'm looking fondly at her eyes while letting my emotions flow with the character.
-Whenever you feel lonely, remember our happiest times. – I spoke while looking concerned and mournful.
-If I do as you say, will you come back one day? – Eunjoo questioned while holding onto my arms.
-Yes, Shiwon. I promise you. – I softly said before leaning closer to Eunjoo, and briefly, I kissed her lips with tenderness. She followed my rhythm before we let go and stared at each other. Suddenly, I stepped away from her, fast and without looking back.
-Cut! – The director said, causing me to stop and take a deep breath. Immediately, I looked at the staff and then glanced at Eunjoo. -That's it for today! But tomorrow, I want everyone all day. – The director said, making me roll my eyes. Eunjoo laughed at me before reaching my side.
-One day, the director will witness your reaction, Hwi! – Eunjoo claimed between chuckles.
-It's been almost a year since we began shooting, and he hasn't noticed. – I pointed out before laughing with Eunjoo. But when I looked at her, I saw tears in her eyes. -Oh! You did cry for this scene, didn't you? – I questioned while removing her tears.
