Epilogue 

(10 YEARS LATER)

On this day, eight years ago, I read a letter from someone, and it changed my life. Sometimes, people come and go, leaving no traces, just like how it evaporates after it rains, and then the cycle continues again. 

I have no words to explain how Shinyu's presence made me feel cared for, even though everyone turned their backs on me. When he was gone, all I did was cry; I tried to remain strong for Hyeri, who always had the same question: "Nari-unnie, where is my brother?" Then the tears tried to escape, but I blinked them back every time, lying that something entered my eyes.

Last year, I showed that letter to Hyeri. I could see how her world crumbled in front of her. But I had to remind her of the person who took care of her while neglecting himself most of the time. Shinyu would have been an amazing father, that I know. 

Now, after acquiring wealth, Hyeri and I live in the suburbs of Seoul. She is a high schooler now and I work in an office as the manager of a cosmetic manufacturing company in Seoul. 

I wish Shinyu was by our side, to laugh with us and share family moments with us. 

The last time I ever saw him was when he was covered with muddy soil from the graveyard after it had rained nonstop for the night. 

I saw him packing something in a torn backpack, but he hid that from me. And I lived every day, hoping to see him somewhere. I thought he might have lied to us, he might have hidden his money from us and escaped to go somewhere to live in a better situation. 

And one day, perhaps I would see him walking down the street, and I would approach him and say, "What a coincidence,", and laugh it off, but no, this is simply life. It was a hard pill to swallow, and I never thought I would get past it. 

That's when time comes in. It heals. And it makes you oblivious too sometimes. Only, for me, time made me long for him even more; creating fake scenarios in my mind about how it would be if he was standing next to me, but the truth never changes: Shinyu is gone now. Somehow, we drifted away.
