I was dreaming, caught in deep darkness.

“Y-Yes…! Huh, you worked so hard…! This, this baby is our child…! Our baby….”

A dream where Dad and Mom were happy to see me born, just like usual.

…Or so I thought, but it wasn’t.

“Why is this baby ours?”

“Ah… no, right? I misunderstood.”

The two left me behind, as if realizing they had made a mistake.

I shouted at their backs.

“…No! Dad! Mom! I’m your daughter…!!”

I desperately called out to them, grabbing their arms.

Only then did they shift their gaze towards me, but….

“What are you talking about, Ye-rin?”

“Why would we be your parents?”

“…Huh?”

My parents, who always looked at me with warm eyes, now looked at me with cold eyes and tone, as if they had never cared.

“You abandoned us, didn’t you?”

“You said you never wanted to see us again.”

“…”

Ah.

Even knowing it was a dream, their words stabbed deep into my heart.

“Are you feeling relieved now?”

“Do you think you’ll live a little better after abandoning healthy parents?”

“Sure, do whatever you want.”

“You’re an orphan now.”

Orphan.

Once again, orphan.

I denied reality even though I knew everything was over, with the words of my dream parents.

“…No!”

“…Rin.”

“Ah, no…! I wasn’t trying to…!”

“Ha Ye-rin!!”

“…!”

And I could barely wake up from the nightmare at the intense shout directed at me.

“Hah… Hah…”

Gasping for breath and looking around, the Brotherhood Planning family was looking down at me with concern.

It was really dark outside.

Just before I fainted, it was clearly morning… I must have lost consciousness for a long time.

“…”

Realizing that a lot of time had passed, I asked Kang Hyung-man.

“…President.”

“Yeah, Ye-rin.”

“Dad and Mom… have they left…?”

“…”

Kang Hyung-man sighed once and passed me a bundle of papers.

I knew what these were.

The documents that lawyer Lee Kim-jang had given me last night….

The papers necessary to sever ties with my parents.

And inside it….

“Ah…”

…were the signatures of both of them.
