HANEUL POV

MY MOM is standing in front of me. Is that even possible?

My hands shock & my vision blurred. All these years, I could still remember how she looked.

Gentle, innocent & kind.

Now, she was there. Standing beside the car looking inside our home. A blonde-haired man come out from our house with luggage bags. She smiled at him. Helping in putting the luggage inside.

Same smile. It's Mom. She's my mom.

They both get inside the car leaving.

"Mr. Jeon, I still can't believe my friend Y/N looks like your mother." Writer Soyaa said beside me.

I requested- no begged her to let me meet my mom again. I promised I would only see her from afar.

Now I see her again. I just can't believe it but my mom is there.

She's reborn. The small mole on her left cheek is proof. She was married to that blonde man & had lived at our same home.

As they left, my tears fall. Maybe this is the last time I'll see her. I opened the car door making my way towards our home.

I can't believe I'm able to call it home again.

"Dad!" I tapped on the main door which get unlocked on its own.

I made my way towards our parent's bedroom & try to open it but again. It was tightly shut.

I attached my forehead to it.

"Dad, you been here all these years? It must be lonely right?" I grumbled sobbing at his misery.

"Is she Mom?" I heard a tap on the door making me smile.

"She's beautiful as always." I cried again. "I couldn't see you but I saw mom today. You don't have to punish yourself like this Dad. Please!"

"You should be free. Please, Dad. Don't be like this. Atleast be in the afterlife for me to meet you. I don't think I'm going to live any longer at this age. Please don't make me an orphan again."

I cried out tapping on the door. Please, let me in. Please! Don't punish yourself. Atleast for my sake.

"Dad, don't you love me?" I ask.

The next moment, the door softly opened. I wipe my tears and looked up.

"Dad!"

It's him. As always handsome. His black hair was styled with red highlights. He stood tall & strong.

"Dad! I_I can see you."

I stepped closer and he pulled me in his arms. The familiar warmth. I felt it. I felt it after all these years later.

"I'm sorry. I love you, little Haneul." His voice is just the same. His same voice.

"I love you, Dad." I tighten my grip trying to remember this feeling & moment to survive my remaining days in peace.

"I'll be waiting for you." He said planting a soft kiss on my forehead, "My little Haneul is still handsome."

I chuckled feeling his thumb wiping my tears.

Then he slowly stepped back. The darkness I saw back then was no more. It was replaced by golden now. He smiled softly at me as he started turning into golden dust.

"I'm 70 next year. But I know I'm handsome." He lightly chuckled & nothing. The room become empty.

He's gone. For real now.

"I'll meet you soon Dad." I murmured looking down.

I just hope he finds peace now. He must be happy just like me to see Mom.

I turned around. Leaving the house. This time I didn't look back at it. It will only be home if my mom & dad are here.

I wiped my dry tears smiling to myself.

It's bittersweet for sure.
