Thirty Three

So Eun

Another day and I was helping Cosmic Girls with their comeback preparations as manager. My mood was down and gloomy for today. I was sad but I can't seem to let it all out.

I was busy with my phone as usual while the members were playing around.

"Eommaui sarangui baraemdeureul jikyeogalkeyo
Ill keep the love of my mothers wishes

Nawa kkumeul hamkke nanudeon
I think of mother who used to share my dreams and brush my hair

Nae meoreun bitgyeojudeon eommaga saenggakna
Though Ive made hurtful wrong choices

Ttaereon jalmotdwen seontaekdeullo apahaetjiman
You silently watched over me behind."

I paused as soon as I heard those. I listened well to what Seola was singing and suddenly my tears poured down as memories of my mom flooded my mind.

I cared little for her and became quite selfish, and now she's sick and hurting. Regrets have flooded me. It has hit me that I couldnt tell if my mom would live longer.

My tears kept pouring out so I quickly went out from the practice room to head to the restroom.

I reached the restroom and I was all alone so I cried it all out. I don't know what's gotten into me but I grew emotional.

............

I.M

I looked at my phone. I still had time before we go back to the photoshoot.

I decided to text her. So Eun of course. She's the only girl I long of.

"Jagi~"

I texted.

I waited and waited for a reply but she didn't give me any. It was strange because she always replies very early.

"Uh?"

I finally received a message from her after waiting for minutes.
It was short. Maybe I should call her.

"Park So Eun." I said.

"Ne?" She replied in a forced voice but it cracked.

"What's wrong? Did something happen this afternoon?" I asked.

"......."

"Ya, I'm your boyfriend. Tell me. Always be honest." I said.

"Changkyun-ah.. I cried b-because.. Agh. I dont k-know." I could hear her starting to cry again.

"Shhh.. it's fine. Calm down first." I tried to make her feel fine.

"My brother Jae just told me recently that my mom is diagnosed with Stage 4 Cancer already. I dont know what to do and my mom won't agree to therapy." She spoke.

My heart broke hearing her like this. I wanted to comfort her as fast as I can but I'm on the phone. We're both busy as always. I had nothing to do but sigh.

"I'm sorry..." I said.

"Yes.."

"I love you So Eun-ah. Dont hurt. Let's hope for the best." I said.

"Yes.. Thank you." She replied.

I pulled the phone away from me and hung up. My heart felt heavy but I got to keep working. Life does not stop for an idol.

So Eun

A week has passed and I finally got my mom to trust me and risk everything for her therapy. It was hard to convince her but her heart softened and she obeyed me.
