You never ought to wonder anything about him, you moved far away, you told yourself it's the last time you'll ever think about him, you held yourself at your own mercy, things got harder each passing day but you somehow still pass by and it's turning your ill, you're practically skin and bones at the moment, your skin is so pale with your bones sticking out of it, your cheek bones are sunken, lips almost always torn from being dried up and bitten on, you looked fragile, eye bags standing out the most.

But still no one at work cared to give you a break and you didn't want it either if it meant not having to think about other things like him...

But recently you heard that there was a new neighbor, a man and his little daughter moved in beside you, everyone else in the building saw them except you, the only person who lived right next to them, it wasn't like you didn't want to see them or welcome them, it was just to hectic and busy you felt like you wouldn't have the right amount of enthusiasm to even say a small 'hi' to them.

You could sometimes here chuckling of a little sweet girl next door through your wall next to your study room, sometimes you would unconsciously smile at the things you hear her say tk her dad from tge other side of the wall, it was so sweet. You always liked children, something held your heart captive when you see children, they were so pure and beautiful each and every single one of them.

Hearing her say somethings made your day a bit better, you wanted to raise a sweet child like her too. You wonder where her mother was, maybe she was in the hospital and she'll be back.

One day on your day off work, you were studying when you heard a knock on your door, you get up and open the door, the first thing that catches your eyes were a sweet little girl, it was the new neighbor, your heart swelled up looking at her holding a small pie, you smiled warmly at her but that smile faded away the second you looked up to look at the man beside her.

You're heartbeat dropped the second you saw him. It was Chan, he was... Older, more mature, more muscular and... There he were staring at you wide eyed as you did too unable to utter a word.

It's been years since you've seen him but suddenly your mind clicks, wait... Was this girl his daughter? You look down at her again. The smile, the lips and nose.... It was his daughter. You felt like crying, screaming and punching him. But there was a little girl. You pretended like you couldn't recognize him.

"ahh. The new neighbors? I would've greeted you myself but I was a but busy for a long time, sorry"

He stared at you like his heart was stabbed, were you really not able to recognize him?

"I-it's absolutely fine... I understand, I'm Chris"

Ahh Christopher or bangchan you thought, internally you were drained, you didn't have the energy to even get mad.

"I'm Grace... Grace Yoon. And this pretty lady is?"

You smiled down at her, the love you had for her disappeared the second you realized that this child is his and someone else who's not you, she was about 4 to 5 years, that means he moved on way long ago.

" I'm Jane bahng"

"ahh so your Christopher bang?"

He shook his head inside, you really can't recognize him and he can't recognize you too the way you look so dead...

" it's actually Bang chan... Christopher is my English name"

He said hoping you'd recognize him now but you only act like it's your first time. Like it's the first time you heard that name.

"well be better get going, we're quite busy too but we'll see you often"

He said handing you the pie and leaving with Jane. He was not going to see you often at all.... After what he's done to you. But he can't help but think that have you moved on too...
