The process of losing memory
" what..? "
In that moment, her mind dizzy and everything before her eyes blurring, she asks Taehyung again, unable to believe what he's saying. The same words come back to her like a boomerang. The female protagonist secretly hoped he'd tell her it was a joke. Before she knew it, tears welled up in her eyes, and as if overcome with emotion, she shouts at Taehyung on the other side of the screen, desperately trying to vent her feelings.
“ … We only contact each other two or three times a month anyway, so it seems like we’ll be out of touch for a while..?”
“My lady…”
“I… really… that’s why I can’t contact you for a few days.. “
The female protagonist blurts out a question to Taehyung in a trembling voice. Taehyung looks at her with tears welling up in his eyes, as if embarrassed. He opens his mouth to speak, but then closes it again, his expression tightening as if his heart is being torn apart. A gloomy and gloomy atmosphere sweeps through the space between them, leaving only pathos.
“2 years…”
" .. yes..? "
“I don’t think I’ll be able to contact you for two years… Yeoju, I love you so much and I always think about you. You have to be well.”
‘Thud-’
With those words, the screen turned off and went black, and the word “two years” rang madly in Yeoju’s ears. The light sources that had been shining brightly just a moment ago began to gradually hide their light, just like Yeoju’s feelings, and cover her body with the color of the night sky. Her eyes were wide open from shock, and her pupils were wandering lost. She wanted to let everything go. Rather than continue to be shaken and suffer continuously, she wanted to let everything go. She wanted to turn away from reality and not face it. Two years… She had to wait a whole two more years. They say that when the body is separated, the heart also falls apart…
‘Diring,’
It was Jeon Jeong-guk, a junior at the company. Since they were in the same department, they had exchanged contact information. Getting a call at this hour? That was the beginning of the two texting for about an hour, starting with Yeo-ju's reply.
Talking to new people and forming relationships is part of the process of losing memories.
