Hye Rin was declared mentally unstable and soon brought to a mental hospital in South Korea.

She stayed in a quiet corner, isolated as she just spent the days, looking out the window.

The ones who visited her were her brother and best friend and Hyun Woo with Da Hae who just turned one began to start walking.

The little girl never gave up everytime her mother kept on pushing her away   and Hyun Woo felt bad every time.

Even his ex mother in-law visited and cried afterwards.

She told Hye Rin that Jun Jae is now in High School, and the twins begun to rebel.

Hye Rin listened and no one knew if she were aware of the presence  of everyone who loves her or not as it seem as if she is in her own world.

Jun Jae visited one day with his father who now saw the condition of Hye Rin and knew he was one of the reason she became this way. Jun Jae sat down and try to talk to her but she as usual remain the same, and it saddened him to see his Mama this way.

The visits became lesser and lesser until the twins arrived and saw exactly how their mother were and it  made them realizes after finding out the truth, they hugged her.  She never hugged them back and they both began to cry 

"We miss you Mama" Hye Jin said crying her eyes out 

"Mama please come back" Min Jae now pleaded 

It was a sad moment for them to see their mother this way and wished they never left her. But due to the circumstances it couldn't be helped.

But then everyone receive the saddest news 

Hye Rin passed away peacefully holding onto a photo album, smiling.

Everyone were mourning of her death.

She was buried and the saddest were the children.

AN: author is currently crying as she write this 

Only they have memories of their mother.

Hyun Woo received the photo album from Seo Woo who went through the pages and saw a letter to every single one of her children and for him, his brother, Nara, Woo Jae and even her sister in-law and best friend, Hyo Rin 

He opened his letter and felt like crying

Dear my first love,
I want to say thank you for showing me what love is after everything and accepting me and my children. I know the guilt still eats you up until now but I hope it make you stronger. Move on, my first love.  And continue living, for our daughter. Be there for her. I know she loves you as she is part of you and me. I know she will grow up beautifully. Take care of yourself, Do Hyun Woo. I never regret loving you. If in the next life, I hope we will meet again and fall in love again.

Goodbye forever my first love, my Do Hyun Woo. 

Hyun Woo cried for a few hours clutching the letters onto his chest

"Hye Rin" he called out her name until he fell asleep.

Everyone who received the letter were crying so hard and one day, there was a butterfly appeared at every important moment.

Park Hye Rin will always be remembered forever by everyone who love her.

She will always be a daughter, a sister, a mother, a friend and an angel to everyone.

Their lives continues on but not to Hyun Woo who now staying with a helper. He is now  99  years old and still reads the letter and reminiscing of the past.

Da Hae now have grandchildren who often visit him.

He heard music in the radio and smiled as it was the song they dance to on one of their date.

He hummed until he went silent  the helper Hee Jun realised it a few hours later when he was calling the elder man for lunch 

It was saddest news for the family as well. They buried him beside Hye Rin's grave.

There were two butterflies flying around them after the funeral and a rainbow appeared  as the butterflies flew towards it  until it disappeared into thin air.

The family pray they will meet again in their next life hoping they will be eternal soul mates.
