Healing

After Choi Mujin's death the road to healing was long and hard. Jiwoo now suffered from anxiety and PTSD. But she didn't have to face any of this alone, because Pildo was there. He was there every step of the way, helping her get through all of this. One night, Pildo woke with a jolt when he felt a kick to his back. Pildo turned to his sleeping girlfriend and realized that she was having a nightmare. The same nightmare she had every night, there were several nights she did not sleep because of this nightmare. "Jiwoo.." Pildo tried, shaking her gently, seeing as that didn't work he shook her a little harder this time, then quickly moved away when Jiwoo shot up into a sitting position, panting, sweaty and crying. "The nightmare again?" Pildo asked, holding her small form gently in his arms. Jiwoo nodded, crying into Pildo's shoulder, "I-I can't do it anymore..." Jiwoo muttered. "Yes you can. This will get better okay? We will get through this, together." Pildo said, rubbing her back. This seemed to have soothed her, since her crying was starting to subside.

They both layed back down, Jiwoo laying her head on Pildo's chest, soon enough Jiwoo fell back asleep, much to Pildo's relief. The next morning, Jiwoo woke up  and looked next to her only to not see Pildo next to her. She got up and walked out to the kitchen just to see Pildo in the kitchen making breakfast. "Morning Ji." Pildo said, making his way over to her, "Morning.." Jiwoo replied returning his hug. "How do you feel after last night?" Pildo asked her, caressing her face. "Still a little shaky..but better." Jiwoo replies. "Breakfast is ready, so go and sit down." Pildo said, which sounded more like a demand than a suggestion. The rest of the day went on as usual. It was quiet for most of the day, the only audible sound was the waves crashing on the shoreline. Jiwoo had several panic attacks from anxiety, "I'll be back.." Jiwoo said, on the verge of a panic attack, which Pildo did not question.

Jiwoo walks out and stands on the shoreline, not saying a word. Letting all her pain and anxiety wash away. She started to think that all of her pain, suffering, anger, and anxiety, was just a stage of healing. "I'm going to be okay.." she thought to herself. After a few months, Jiwoo slowly began to become herself again, the person she was before her father joined Dongcheon. She still suffered from anxiety and PTSD, but she didn't let any of that get to her anymore. Pildo especially saw the changes in her, she smiled and laughed more, and she talked more, which was a huge accomplishment for her. "You did it." Pildo said, overcome with immense pride at how far Jiwoo has come.

It was as if this weight was lifted of her shoulders. Yes she still had anxiety, and the nightmares, but she was stronger now because of this. "Papa...I did it.." Jiwoo told herself. She's finally gotten the closure she needed to move forward.
