[Specified point in time]

The sky is blue, but my heart is red, but it doesn't look like that, no, no-♬


김소정
Huh? Who is it?

I got a feeling it's complicated because of you, right? Right? Right? I'm like that, right? -♬


김소정
mom...?

All the lights in the world are pouring down -♬


김소정
Why did Mom...?

I want to know what will happen next-♬


김소정
I guess... I should accept it...?

Hey there...-♬


김소정
€Hello...?

Mom) Kim So-jung, me and


김소정
€... Yes?

Mom) Come out


김소정
€.... yes...


김소정
€Where should we go...?

Mom) Come to the cafe


김소정
€Yes...

I hung up the phone.

As I hung up the phone, Yewon asked me cautiously


김예원
.... Sister, what's going on?


김소정
.... Yewon....


김소정
Sister, I'll be back in a minute.


김예원
Where are you going...?


김소정
I'll go ahead and come back here for a bit.


김소정
You know you can't just open the door for anyone, right?


김예원
huh...


김소정
I'll go and come back soon

I left the house in a hurry, leaving a message for Yewon that I would be back soon.


김소정
Phew... oh, there it is

I approached my mother who was sitting on one side.


김소정
I'm here

Mom) Sit down


김소정
yes....

I sat across from my mom.


김소정
What's going on?

Mom) Yewon, do you want to explain the work?


김소정
Yewon...?

Mom) Okay

Mom) I heard that Yewon is the perpetrator. What does that mean?


김소정
.... I misunderstood at school


김소정
The victim student was threatened and blamed Yewon.


김소정
Because of that, Yewon is also having a hard time.

Mom) What were you doing until then?


김소정
.....

Mom) I don't think it's been resolved yet.

Mom) How are you going to solve this?


김소정
....

Mom) When I first told you and Yewon that we were going to live together, didn't I stop you?

Mom) But what did you say? You said you were an adult and could take care of Yewon.

Mom) But is this caring?


김소정
.....

Mom) You said you were confident that you took care of me a lot when I was away, and this is the result?

Mom) If you can, you should solve it, but you couldn't solve it. What are you going to do about it?


김소정
.....

Mom) How long are you going to drag this out? The longer you delay, the harder it will be on Yewon.

Mom) Either Yewon doesn't notice or she keeps looking around.

Mom) If you keep going like that, hand Yewon over to me.

Mom) I'll raise Yewon, so just live your life well.


김소정
....

Mom) What are you going to do? It's up to you.

As I listened to my mother, the things I had done to Yewon flashed through my mind one by one.

I guess I still have a lot of shortcomings

I was confident that I could take good care of Yewon.

I don't think I'm taking good care of myself.

Because the country is still infinitely lacking in people

Because the people of this country are infinitely weak

I lost confidence that I could really take good care of Yewon.


김소정
I'm sorry, it's a country like this


김소정
I'm so sorry for being a country with so many shortcomings...

Yewon, I told you that I wish you hadn't said sorry to me.

I guess I'll have to apologize to you again.

I'm sorry... Yewon...

13 The end-
