I still remember my first life. How could I forget it? It is etched into me, full of regrets. That man... he took everything from me, destroying my very existence. And yet, he will probably remain the only one I'll ever love.
I know you're out there somewhere, in this new world, Taehyung. I will find you. And I will destroy you, just as you destroyed me.
For seventeen years, I have repeated these words to myself, and yet, I still have no trace of you. Taehyung Moore, where are you hiding? My first love. The one who helped me weather life's storms but also the source of my greatest sorrow.
In my first life, I lived through World War II. I had a lover: Kim Taehyung. A brave and honest boy, with words full of wisdom. But behind that facade, what was he really thinking? I must find him. To free myself.
Today, I stand in front of his grave. Once again, for the umpteenth time this month.
