What is a confession?A record of reflecting on and repenting one's mistakes



____________


The breakup was unexpected, and the sadness seemed to be as great as the embarrassment.
Why, why on earth, how bad was I that I could write a confession about that man?
I could feel my heart sinking. Unless I was doing something wrong, of course. Otherwise, I had no reason to be abandoned, so I struggled to find a reason.
He did nothing wrong. It was all my fault.

It's pretty easy to lose my memories of him. The reason is because I was in a car accident.
It could have been easy. After being discharged from the hospital, I found the memoir while looking through the bookshelf at home.
I felt sorry for him. I could see his appearance in the pictures that were stuck in between.
I could tell. The facial features were distinct. The name... I guess you could tell just by looking at it written down.
taehyoung kimThat's it. I've been seeing him a lot on the street lately. He's been lingering around me, I wonder.


"Is that you? It's Taehyung, my first love and ex-boyfriend."
"I'm sorry. I wrote a book of confessions, and it was full of my mistakes."
"I lost my memory, but I know I did you wrong."

" ....You did nothing wrong. In fact, it was my fault."
"Memories... Are you happy because you lost them?"

I could see the man's eyes quickly turning red. But the reason was,
He must know. He tells me it's not my fault. How can I believe that? My confession is full of my mistakes.


"It's not all happiness, it's frustrating."
"Still, I don't remember, but I once loved you madly
"It's a relief to be able to talk to this."

After finishing those words, the female protagonist patted Taehyung, who was sobbing. With a faint smile.
I could calm him down. Did I ever smile and comfort him like that when I was alive?
Look. My heart is breaking, and I'm crying out loud in front of him.
For fear that his sorrow would be multiplied, only memories of him remain in my memory.
It's still a big deal to him, and I feel sorry for him.
In the end, it's all my fault. It wasn't me who was abandoned from the beginning, it was him, and no one else.
I had to kick him out, which was more heartbreaking than a breakup. After I left, this meeting
I hope this midsummer night's dream becomes a beautiful dream. I hope it becomes a dream without regrets.

-analysis-

The female protagonist is dead. She was in a beautiful relationship with Taehyung, but died in a car accident.
The female protagonist has lost her memory. However, her life is in danger as she is unconscious.
In the end, death comes. Death here is like discharge from the hospital. In this article, the repentance is a memoir, and the repentance is as it is meant to be.
The original meaning of rock is record, but in writing it means memory.
The reason she said that Taehyung was the one abandoned in the end, not herself, is because Yeoju left Taehyung behind, and the dream on that beautiful midsummer night was about the times she spent with Yeoju. It is Yeoju's wish that these times would be remembered as good memories rather than sadness, and that she would not have any regrets about him.
