Before Gaipa went to Alan's condo, he went to Jean's house and found Jean busy behind she's house burning trash.
Including small items such as unused papers from Alan's room.
At that moment, Gaipa found some anniversary photos of Alan and Wen in a box.
Jean had been saving these photos for  a long time. Jean thought Alan and Wen's breakup was temporary, but Alan found a new love so Jean decided to burn them instead.
It was like the last memory of Alan and Wen, and now it's gone to ashes.

After deciding to leave Kondo, Gaipa ends up alone in his house with the rain starting to fall again.
It was fortunate that Gaipa had reached home before the rain started.
This time, the television didn't even accompany Gaipa's gloomy night filled with guilt and anger.
Had he really demanded so much of Alan?
Why does Alan still have something to do with Wen if he says he's let him go.
Why can't Gaipa do something that Wen does too, even if it's because he does like it, Gaipa isn't trying to be Wen.

What's wrong? Gaipa just wanted to settle something that might become a problem later.
The fact that he believes is that Alan hasn't let go of Wen completely, even if it's not love but the hurt of being abandoned after 5 years together.
As someone who was left behind, Gaipa understands exactly how Alan feels.
But, both of them have passed that stage and Alan seems to be running in place.
He tried to find similarities and differences in Gaipa and compared him to Wen.

'After all the things we've been through, you're still asking?'

That's right, after all the things we've been through together. Letting go of Jim who had been Gaipa's shadow all this time, letting go of all the things about Jim that Gaipa planned to keep well and Alan still didn't let go of Wen?
Is Alan struggling like he has been?
Gaipa lets Alan use himself to let go of Wen, but that doesn't mean Alan has to make Gaipa into someone else.

Gaipa goes to Jim's shop that afternoon, it's closed and it's still raining.
Jim's shop looks a little deserted, perhaps because of the weather.
There was only Jim sitting at one of the customer tables, and he greeted Gaipa who came in with his clothes a little wet on his shoulders.

"Uncle Jim, you didn't order chicken today."

"There's plenty, maybe tomorrow. Chicken rice as usual?"

Gaipa shook his head, he hadn't come to eat apparently.

"Can I have a drink instead?"

"Beer?"

Jim was a little confused when Gaipa nodded his head.
As he goes to get Gaipa a beer, Jim asks him about his chicken business. Maybe there's something Gaipa is worried about, that's why he wants a beer?

But it turned out that Uncle Dao had solved the problem that Gaipa had told Jim about some time ago, the chicken didn't have any problems anymore.

"Where's Wen?"

"Probably still on the road? That should be it."

Jim then watched as Gaipa took a sip of his drink. After that, his gaze went to the streets that were still heavily traveled by motorized vehicles even though it was raining quite heavily.

"Do you have a problem?" Jim finally asked, worried and curious.

"Nothing, uncle. Just in the mood for a drink."

"You can talk to me about anything, Gaipa." Jim feels that Gaipa is his responsibility after Mrs. Hong's departure, so he worries about anything about Gaipa now that the boy lives alone.
Oh, no. There's Alan.

"How's your relationship with Alan?"

Right on target, Gaipa just smiled a little. "It's fine."

"What about you uncle?"
