I no longer,
I want to return to the original world with my brother.
I couldn't speak.
Because it was something I wished for alone.
That's what I want.
But it's second place.
What I want
1st place is
It's my brother's happiness.
Coming here, and even now
It was all for my brother.
But right now, what I want most is for my brother
My brother is staying in Neverland.
"Mr. Hansol?"
I was shocked and dazed
Joshua called.
Now I have no feelings for him.
I don't even know what to do.
"Why on earth...
Did you create something called Neverland?
And why on earth...
"You're erasing my memories?"
I felt like I was going to cry at any moment.
And Joshua's words
"I am suffering from ##
It's salvation.
Erase the memory of ##
## is a space that cannot be entered
He created this Neverland.
And here
## can't be."
I can't remember ##
I feel suffocated
The tears I was barely holding back
I couldn't stand it any longer.
And to Joshua
I asked one more question.
"Then I am now
What should I do..?"
Joshua looked at me shedding tears.
He smiled affectionately.
"Get out of here and erase your memories
Just live as usual.
Anyway, the pain now is
If you erase your memories
You will forget it."
One last word
It made me even sadder.
'If you erase your memories
Even the pain becomes forgotten.'
.
.
.
I really have to leave this place now.
In Joshua's words
If I leave here now
Memories from Neverland,
Forget everyone in Neverland
They say it's possible.
I met you here
Everyone saw me off.
Woozi, Jun, Mingyu, Hoshi, Wonwoo,
The8, Dokyeom, Dino...
And Seung-Kwan
"Goodbye Vernon.
You should be happy in your original world instead of me."
"Yeah, thank you so much."
I finally met my brother.
As expected, my brother
I think I decided to stay here.
"Vernon..."
My brother's original name is
It seemed like I had already forgotten.
I was scared.
But I couldn't stop it.
"Brother. Thank you for being my brother.
And my brother..."
finally
The real brother I will soon forget
I wanted to let you know.
"It's Choi Seung-cheol.
Seven High School, Grade 2, Class 3Number 26.
Ranked 487th out of 800 studentsI think it's pretty high.
My brother only likes physical education
I hate math and science the most.
I always crumple up my test papers
They're all wrinkled and creased
My brother wears a school uniform because he plays soccer after school.
I was always drenched in sweat
If you see me on the street, I'll be at the snack bar in front of the school.
I bought Pikachu a pork cutlet.
The ice cream stick I won when I was 5
I don't want to exchange it for ice cream
Keep it
Looking at the diary I wrote in elementary school
Crying alone
I always said I didn't want to be ##."
I felt like I was going to cry at any moment.
Every little thing
I wanted to let you know.
And finally he said:
"My brother and younger brother, Choi Han-sol
"I really love you so much, hyung."
I left Neverland.
Eventually, tears flowed.
thank god.
I was a little late, but in front of my brother
I almost cried.
And then a distant song was heard.
"Hansol! My little brother Hansol!
"I really love you so much, hyung... I'm sorry!"
Looks like I'm about to cry
It was a trembling voice.
And me standing in the storage room of our house.
What is that voice?
Why am I crying
I couldn't figure it out.
5 years later
"Hansol!
"Have you packed all your bags?"
Mom urged me.
Because today
Choi Han-sol (20)
"wait a minute!
Let me check one last time!"
To the university dormitory
Because it's moving day.
"What is this?
I didn't usually see it
On the bookshelf
There was a Polaroid photo.
"Hmm..? When was this...
Looks like she's about 14 or 15 years old...
Who is next to you?"
The face was unrecognizable
A place where there is likely to be a name
It was old and covered with stains.
Pretend to forget the person in the picture
I am
I took my first step towards becoming an adult.
