Hyeji remained on the terrace, her heart heavy with the weight of regret. The moon cast its gentle glow, a silent witness to the turmoil unfolding below. Determined to salvage what remained, she wiped away her tears and whispered to the night, "I won't give up on us, Chanyeol."

As Hyeji walked back from the hospital, the weight of recent events still etched on her face, nearing her shared apartment, she spotted a sleek black jeep beside their apartment. The air crackled with tension as Mama Park, an aura of determination around her, locked eyes with Hyeji.

"Kim Hyeji?" Mama Park called out, her voice carrying a mix of authority and concern. Hyeji hesitated, the gravity of the situation palpable. Mama Park gestured for her to approach, a silent invitation to a conversation laden with unspoken truths.

Approaching the car, Hyeji's heart raced as Mama Park revealed, "I'm Chanyeol's mother. We need to talk, get in." The weight of the revelation hung in the air, and Mama Park, with a discerning gaze, motioned for Hyeji to join her inside the sleek vehicle.

Reluctantly, Hyeji entered the car, the door closing behind her with a decisive click. Seated within the confines of the sleek black jeep, Hyeji and Mama Park found themselves in a space charged with anticipation. Mama Park, her gaze unwavering, began the conversation with a tone that conveyed both authority and concern.

"I'm meeting you for the first time since you met my son," Mama Park stated, her words hanging in the air. Hyeji, though apprehensive, met her gaze, ready to confront whatever truths lay ahead. Mama Park continued, "I am sure you are aware that Chanyeol is my only son. And I am also aware you two had a kid together."

The weight of Mama Park's words pressed on Hyeji, who took a deep breath and nodded. In the confined space of the car, emotions swirled as Hyeji listened, her expressions shifting from skepticism to a subtle acknowledgment of the shared struggles.

Mama Park, sensing the gravity of the moment, reached into her bag and retrieved an envelope. With a solemn expression, she handed it to Hyeji, the air thick with tension. Hyeji, her hands trembling, accepted the envelope, fingers tracing the seal that held the potential key to her son's identity.

As Hyeji tore open the envelope, her eyes fixated on the contents within. The space seemed to contract, leaving only the rustling of paper echoing in the confined space. Her gaze locked onto the inscription, and her heart sank as she read the words that would redefine the narrative of their shared journey.

"I'm sure you know what that is."

The weight of those words bore down on Hyeji, and a worried look etched itself across her face. The truth, stark and unyielding, unfolded before her. The silence in the car was deafening, broken only by the soft exhale that escaped Hyeji's lips. The revelations contained in that simple piece of paper held the power to reshape her relationship with Chanyeol, challenging the very foundations of the family they had hoped to rebuild.

In that heavy silence, Hyeji's mind raced to comprehend the implications of the negative paternity results. Mama Park watched her closely, gauging the impact of the revelation on the woman sitting beside her.

"Can't you talk?"

Hyeji's hands, still shaking, clutched the paper tightly. Her eyes, clouded with a mix of disbelief and despair, scanned the words again as if hoping they might change. The weight of the truth settled upon her shoulders, and a single tear escaped, tracing a silent path down her cheek.
