Halmeoni said I was asleep for almost a month. I didn't get to celebrate Christmas or New Years, I don't remember very much. We had to stay in town for 3 months since I had to learn a few things again but luckily the doctors said I was 'smart'. Not that it has anything to do with it, Halmeoni said Halabeoji died in the car crash. I don't remember anything though, I don't even remember what he looked like until she showed me. The doctors were surprised when I recognized Halmeoni right away but I myself didn't even know my own name.

I have the cutest dog in the world though, he helps me so much. Hayangi is his name, he's so happy and playful. Although Halmeoni doesn't let me go outside at night, she says it's too dangerous but during the day I get to be outside and play with Hayangi. I study at night, I studied really hard since losing my memory pretty much knocked out a lot of important things I'd need to know for future references.

It's already going to be March and I have no idea of who was my friend, if I had any or if I know anyone. When Halmeoni went into town, she took me along but we didn't go in the car. We rode horses, Hayangi would have to stay home since the sheep tend to try and wander off.

"Halmeoni, it feels nice to be home huh?"

She smiled warmly. "Yes it does. Being in the town wasn't so bad but I missed being home. I'm just glad that you're still here with me Luna"

I smiled back. "Me too."

I looked into the forest as we passed by. I don't know why but ever since I came back, that forest is all I can think about. It makes me feel sad and sometimes it's like someone's watching me.

"Luna"

?

"Yes?" I asked.

"Don't ever go near that place, ever. I can't bear the thought of losing you...you're all I have."

"Halmeoni, I'm not going to leave you alone. No matter what~ Some day I promise things will be different, you won't have to worry about anything anymore and I'll take care you"

She smiled slightly. "I know you will sweetheart"

"Halmeoni, Have you thought of moving? Like to start fresh again?"

She nodded. "I have but this is where Chiwon and I made our lives, there are so many memories here but if I had to make a choice that concerned our safety here then I'd do it...for you"

She must miss Halabeoji so much, I don't know what happened but maybe it was my fault. What if I was talking to him? What if I distracted him from keeping his eyes on the road? Just the very thought of it made my heart ache, it's my fault he's not here...

We made it to town, Halmeoni tied the horses nearby and we walked into town. Everyone here knew me but I couldn't even remember meeting them, they were helpful but I just couldn't remember. I'm not going to get any old memories back, The doctors said it would be a miracle if I did but that they advise not to get our hopes up.

To be honest, I don't want to remember...Halabeoji's last minutes on this earth gone because of me. I know I had something to do with it, there's no way that the car could've crashed just like that. There had to be a reason for him to lose control like that, what if Hayangi and I were playing and...

I sighed softly.

I should just stop thinking about it...the point is Halabeoji is gone. Even if I did remember it wouldn't bring him back...

She was gone for almost 3 months but I couldn't bring myself to go see her. She knows, I just know it. If I show up now she'll surely hate me...
