The brightest star, meTo the fiancée.
🍈 When you and I shed tears under the falling moonlight (repeat!),
🍈 Sound - Lee Su-hyeon (play on repeat!)
The bright sky has already set and it is now a dark night
A night when the stars shined brighter than ever.
He suddenly asked me.
"Do you remember the day you and I first met?"
"Wasn't that a day similar to this night sky? How did you remember it?"
"It's a little embarrassing, but that day you said you wouldn't marry me.
The day I told your father, I was hurt inside.
"I couldn't sleep until you fell asleep and just stared at the sky."
“…Oh, that’s it,”
"Okay, now you're in love with me too.
That's fine with me."
"Huh, your Majesty, are you still keeping that in mind?"
"ah, "Well, since you don't like me, of course you won't keep me in your heart. You probably didn't either."
"No, I wouldn't have done that. I would have been like you.
"I'm not a narrow-minded person."
"You only see me as that kind of person? It's truly shameful."
Then he spoke to me again in a low, serious voice.
“What would it be like if the end came for you and me?”
"Don't worry. I am, and you are by my side too.
Didn't you promise to stay with me for the rest of your life?"
"...If so."
"...Are you going to leave me?"
Since the day we promised to be each other's fiancée and fiancée
He had never done this to me before, but today he seemed a little suspicious.
"There is no such thing as eternity.
I just said that I would stay by your side as long as possible."
"But if I were to no longer be by your side, would you be sad?"
"...I don't want to worry about things that may not happen."
"...The wind is cold. Go in first and rest."
Although I couldn't see him after I entered, his shadow emerging from outside the door looked like he was praying to the moon.
And the day dawned.
"Your Majesty, it is time for you to go out."
"I'll go out first, so you rest a bit more and then get up."
"Oh, no. I'm getting married soon, so I need to get into the habit of waking up early."
“Don’t be in such a hurry - I’m fine. I’ll bring you a present later.”
"Then you should come quickly. I might not be able to do anything because I'm curious."
"I'll be back soon."
So he headed off somewhere in the morning. He had promised to bring me a gift, he had promised to come back with me quickly, and he was headed off somewhere.
Even as time passed and the sky grew darker, he did not return.
At that moment, a man who appeared to be his friend who had come to pick him up in the morning came in.
"...Why do you come alone, Your Majesty?"
"Your Majesty asked me to deliver this. And he also asked me to deliver the letter from your Majesty that was in your pillow."
He said he would come soon, he said he would bring my gift, but he didn't show up. I sat down with a growing sense of unease and opened the letter in my pillow.
His pretty handwriting is visible as soon as you open it.
- Are you very surprised? By the time you find this letter, I will no longer be in your sight.
There's something I haven't told you.
Have you ever thought that one of the countless stars you see in the night sky every night will soon be me?
I asked you, do you remember the day we first met?
I hope you remember that I went to pick the brightest star in the sky for you.
Also, I asked you one more thing, what would it be like if I were no longer with you, if the end came for you and me?
How is it?
I think I'll miss you very much.
I asked you, but you never asked me.
When you and I first met, I will remember the way you looked at me, the way you spoke to me, which was a bit cold at first.
I don't know if you'll like my gift. I bought you a long coat since you catch a cold easily.
Put that on and come see me every night.
Every day, it will shine the brightest among the countless stars. ...
I have no regrets, but I think it will be a shame not to be able to see you anymore.
You should be happier and more peaceful than me.
I really miss you.
I'm so scared of the road I have to take alone.
I never expected it, and I couldn't have imagined it.
As I read the letter, my tears wouldn't stop.
"...What does all this mean?"
"..."
"What's going on..?"
"..."
"I asked what was happening...! Why can't I see you, sir?"
"His Majesty truly loved you. He called your name on his way home, even as he closed his eyes."
“Why? Where are you going, sir? Just this morning, you told me you would be back soon. How could you leave like this without saying a word to me?”
"You may not know this, but my lord has been frail since birth. The elders of the family were also against marrying you for the sake of your health, but only after you persuaded them several times did you become your fiancé."
"Since becoming your fiancé, your health has deteriorated rapidly. I tried to tell you several times, but you refused, so I had no choice..."
"...Your Majesty, you have truly loved so foolishly."
"He was the kind of man who never once told a woman he was in love that she was not feeling well."
The man who gave me flowers instead of greetings, my lover who confessed his love for me, the woman who proposed to me My fiancé.
In the end, he left behind unforgettable memories.
“The stars are shining really brightly today.”
I thought it would be better to leave without saying anything to you. Thinking of you crying so much after seeing this makes me really worried and breaks my heart.
What was the sky like tonight?
Didn't my star shine the brightest?
I want to ask you this question face to face, but I know I can't, I'm crying too much.
I wanted to marry you and see a child grow up to resemble you, but I know that I can't, and it breaks my heart.
I'm sorry for leaving without saying anything.
I wish it was a very distant dream, but one day, when you become a star like me, I will go out to meet you and pick the flower I first gave you. And then I will put that flower in your hand.
I wish you would forget me and fall in love with someone new, and live happily ever after, but for some reason, I just can't bring myself to say those words.
My one and only lover, the woman I adore.
Please don't cry too much.
The night before I leave, I will pray to the moon like this, and I only hope that you will grant my wish.
I'll be waiting, come slowly.
I'll just wait for the day when we can walk side by side, holding hands.
I, too, am truly resentful of you and me ending up in such a vain way.
If there really is such a thing as a next life, I will use the remaining life I couldn't use in this life in the next life and walk with you, holding your hand that I couldn't hold.
The person I loved the most, my fiancé.
I miss you so much.
He was kinder than anyone else, and he always cared only for me. He became the brightest star. True to his word, his star shone brightly enough for me to easily find.
I hope that one day I will meet him again.
He always came first, and today I think of him more than ever, glancing at me from beyond the wall of our house.
Perhaps, the Lord is not just a small star, but the biggest and brightest moon.
I don't think I'll ever meet any other man.
I just want to see you soon.
If we had gotten married soon and had children, you would have been a wonderful father and I would have been a wonderful mother.
I hope that in the next life, we will have a long and happy life together and never let go of each other.
My lord, you are also my one and only lover and fiancée.
The only person I love.
A person more beautiful than the first flower you gave me.
To my fiancé, the brightest star.
😢 I was writing this and tears were coming out. ((sob))
