5 years later...
Hana takes a deep breath as she entered the room that was once hers a long time ago. She heard her parents talking to her former in-laws and she knows, with the time passed by, they'll need to reconciled and left everything in the past.
Hana exhales a deep breath and pushed the door. What she saw next broke her heart as she saw someone that was once strong and healthy, lying motionlessly on the bed. His hair was almost gone from attending therapies and chemotherapy.
Cancer can change people's lives in a short span of time.
She sits beside him and trailed her fingers on his bony arm. What was once with muscles and meat now only showing just bone as it laid at his sides.
His eyes that were once alive looked deathly with dark circles under his eyes. His face was sunken. Nothing but just bones with only the skin hiding them as he looked so... small and lifeless.
Hana can't help but tear up at the state of her ex-husband. She knows he might not hear her but she needs to say what she'd been hiding in her heart.
"Hi, Kookie, " Hana started, "Can't believe we will meet again but in this state. You know, " Hana gulped, "I still love you even after six years away from you. This must be the words you want to hear from me, " Hana already tearing up and she wiped them before it hits the bed, "I forgive you. You heard me, Jungkook? I forgive you."
Hana sighed as another burden on her shoulder finally lifted. She places the last kiss, the longest last kiss she'd give and the tears actually dropped on his cheeks before she stood up.
"Hana, " it was small but Hana can hear him clearly. Turning back to face Jungkook, she smiled with teary eyes as he looked at him. The same loving look he gave her twelve years ago, the look that made her fall in love.
"I'm here, Kookie. I'm here, " Hana muttered as she sitting back beside him and hold his awaited palm.
"I'm- so-sorry for everything. This is my kar-karma. Don't feel guil-guilty because this i-is not your fault, " Jungkook whispered and Hana already sobbing as she nodded her head.
"I- I love you too, " Jungkook started sobbing while gripping Hana's hand. The guilt he felt was too unbearable for him to lift as he carried them everywhere. Cancer he got is the karma of what he had did to Hana in the past and he had accepted it. He just needs to see Hana for the last time before he goes.
"I love- love you too, baby. I al-always do- find a bet-better man and forget me, " Hana froze when the grip on her hand loosen and she shouted at hers and his parents as Jungkook no longer opening his eyes... for forever.

"Thank you, Hana, for attending and helping Jungkook's funeral, " Mrs. Jeon whispered and hugged Hana before excusing herself to attended her guests.
Hana sighed and stared at Jungkook's picture where his case was placed. Flowers on top of it and one of them has her flower. The very red one was from her.
She watched with blurry eyes as the casket dropped down into the big hole before it was closed again with soils. She didn't concentrate as the priest prayed for the dead and all of the guests around.
She was left alone after everyone leaves. The way he left the world, leaving her is too surreal to her. She never prayed for his death yet death is what came to him. She sighed and stand up before taking a last glance at Jungkook's new home before walking away, out of Jungkook's life, forever.
She hugged her mother before they drove off of the cemetery place leaving another memory to Hana.
"Goodbye, Jungkook,"
