Chapter 57- The possibly worst outcome ⚔️

A/N: Was going to update the chapter to console my single readers yesterday, but I was late by a day lol

- From your similarly single author 😹

.

If unknowns, that you know nothing of, are considered terrifying.

Then, what would it call?

When you know perfectly well how everything is going to turn out..

Yet, still kept on deceiving yourself, holding onto an impossible hope that it might actually not be the case?

Stupidity?

Or possibly, desperation?

Perhaps.

It might be better to leave such a question unanswered.

.

“Why do you still keep this name that I gave you?”

Throughout the rows of green bushes inside the school garden, such a question was heard for a short and brief moment.

At first, it might sound like Kim Rok Soo was once again trying to justify Barrow in his own, habitual way.

However, if you were to read the question for the second time, then you would understand what he actually means.

As plain as it may sound,

Is it such a false claim?

No, it’s not.

And Kim Rok Soo knows of it more than anyone else.

Names.

While most things cannot accompany you for all your entire life, name is a one thing that could.

Precisely, isn’t that the reason why parents named their children the first thing when they were born?

Because it is important, to have such a name that you can properly call yours.

Even though the processes aren’t the same, there are those who similarly got their names at one point in their life— except that it’s not always right when they were given birth to.

That is the origins of a name and why it is considered precious to each individual.

While it is undeniably true that Barrow’s past was way contradicting to those existing lives as previously mentioned,

It was also a worth, memorable moment when he received a name from the first ever person who’s willing to reach out to the orphan him when all everyone did was avoiding his filthy self.
