#12: 君の声は My Rainbow、空を越えて just 届く

(Your voice is my rainbow, I'd cross the sky just to reach it)

14th February 2015

Valentine's Day.

A day where all the lovers in the world were celebrating their love.

The day where Joong would marry Yuki.

It was also Ze's death anniversary.

Jae had gone over to Joong's house the day before to congratulate his parents, and since Joong had gone out to see to last minute preparations. He didn't meet her. She left a red packet and wedding gift for them. And informed his parents that she couldn't attend his wedding, cos it was Ze's death anniversary.

Joong's mum: WHAT?!!! Ze's death anniversary?!!!

Jae: Ne... ajumma... I need to visit his grave... I don't think it would be appropriate for me to attend Joong's wedding... Joesong hamnida...

Joong's mum: Jae... my child... why didn't you tell us earlier? About Ze? We never asked his halmuhni why Ze and his dad didn't come stay with you too, cos we didn't want to appear too nosy... Now I know it's cos they have both passed away in the war...

Jae: Joesong hamnida ajumma... I didn't want you guys to feel depressed over the news... Since you've got a wedding in preparation... Anyway, please tell Joongie and Yuki that I'm sorry... But I'll give them a treat when they come back from their honeymoon to make up for it...

Joong's mum: Jae...

Jae (interrupting her): Ajumma... I gotta go to work now... Congratulations again... Annyeonghi kyesayo...

Jae dashed out of Joong's house, running away from the house as fast as possible. She was hurting inside so much.

Why did he have to choose to wed on the same day Ze died? It was like having the two men she loved leave her on the same day... It broke her heart into a million pieces... But she still had to put on a happy front to face the elders... Even though she was breaking down inside... She cried herself to sleep every night after she received Joong's wedding invitation card...

14th February...

To the world it was a day to celebrate love...

But to her... It was the day destiny took away from her the two men that she loved the most in the world... The skies could not be any darker or gloomier for her...

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It was a stormy day on the day of Joong's wedding. Fortunately for him, the wedding was held indoors, so everything could still go on. But he had not seen Jae the entire day. He was wondering where she was. In fact, he had not seen her for a very long time...

They never met since he returned, apart from that first day...

He had been busy with his wedding preparations and work. And she had been working day and night at the hospital, he had heard from his mum. And he knew from his mum that Ze's halmuhni had moved to stay with Jae. But there was no mention of Ze. Joong didn't understand why, but he didn't probe.

His guests had all arrived at the location. But he still didn't see Jae.

Joong's mum: Joongie-ya... You should head on in... It looks like it's going to rain soon...
