🪻 Echoes Of Spring

[ PRESENT - 7 YEARS LATER ] 

╔. ■ .═══════╗

"I remember the cherry blossoms, how they bloomed and withered away, just like our love. It was beautiful, but fleeting. Now, the hyacinths are blooming, and it's like they're telling me to move on, to find a new beginning. But it's hard to let go of the past, of the memories we made together."

~ Kim Nina

╚═══════. ■ .╝

A month passed since winter ended and spring came again in Seoul, South Korea. Something beautiful that started back during the season of cherry blossoms, 7 years ago came to a tragic end. Even though, it's spring again, but this time, there is no cherry blossoms but hyacinths, indicating a new beginning regardless of good or bad, but surely separately.

As Heeseung and Nina stood at the crossroads of their lives, they couldn't help but reminisce about the past. Their love was like the cherry blossoms - fleeting, yet breathtakingly beautiful. It was a whirlwind romance that blossomed in the warmth of spring, filling their hearts with joy and hope. Just like the delicate petals of the cherry blossoms, their love was fragile and ephemeral, susceptible to the harsh winds of reality.

But now, as they gazed upon the hyacinths that bloomed in the same season, they were reminded that life goes on, regardless of the outcome. The hyacinths, with their bold and vibrant colors, represented a new beginning - one that was not defined by the beauty or tragedy of their past, but by the promise of renewal and growth. Just as the hyacinths pushed through the earth, unafraid to face the unknown, Heeseung and Nina were forced to confront their own futures, separate and apart from each other.

Heeseung's life as a solo musician and businessman was a whirlwind of success. He had always been passionate about music, and after years of hard work, he finally released his debut album to critical acclaim. The album shot to the top of the charts, and Heeseung found himself performing at sold-out concerts and rubbing shoulders with A-list celebrities.

But few people knew that Heeseung's life was not just about music. At the tender age of 20, he had taken on a huge responsibility - raising Rowoon alone in a foreign country . It was a promise he had made to his brother 7 years ago, before his passing. And since then, He has done a great job on being a dad figure to Rowoon and also fulfilled his responsibilities towards his parents, the only promise he made to them before going abroad, back then. 

He is now 27, running his father's company smoothly and prospering in his music career. Heeseung's motivation was to provide a better future for his nephew, Rowoon, who was now in his care. However, to the outside world, Heeseung was a single father, and Rowoon was known as his son. Only a handful of people knew the truth about Rowoon's identity, and Heeseung made sure to keep it that way to protect him from unwanted attention.
