Regret and love

16

That evening

Thump thump thump

Jungkook finished work faster than anyone else and ran home. While Yeoju was washing the dishes with her earphones in and humming a song, Jungkook walked over to her, put his arms around her waist, buried his face in her neck, and took a deep breath.

김여주

(Looking back) (Prince Puppy... Your skinship is really strong today...)

김여주

(with mouth shape) Are you back?

The female protagonist whispers to Jungkook, "Are you back?" while kissing him on the lips, but Jungkook's expression is noticeably stiff. Tears well up in his eyes as he holds the female protagonist's hands.

전정국

(sobs) Unnie, Min Yoongi,,,,why did you bring him here?

Yeoju's expression hardened slightly after hearing those words, then she started scribbling on the paper again.

김여주

‘How long do I have to live like this, Kook?’

When I saw that, I felt like I got hit in the head.

전정국

What did you say?

김여주

(On paper) 'I'm sick of living like this anymore.'

김여주

(On paper) 'I want to regain my memories, speak again, and live freely meeting people... Please save me...'

Yeoju's eyes also became moist and she held Jeongguk's hand, but Jeongguk also felt sorry on the other hand.

As Yeoju's only human connection, I only come home every evening. I know better than anyone how difficult it is to meet people, unable to even speak properly, and how frustrating it can be.

Anyway, when Yeo-ju's past memories come back, she'll probably remember Min Yoongi's atrocities too... How many people would be able to like their ex-lover again with those memories?

Separating Yoon-ki, who holds all the clues to Yeo-ju's memories, would be like severing Yeo-ju's last ties to this world... As she reached this point, Jeong-guk sighed deeply and eventually gave permission.

When the female lead sees Jungkook and says thank you, Jungkook wraps his arms around her neck and hugs her tightly. Jungkook hugs her tightly as if he's going to crumble. Then...

전정국

Sister, I have to love you forever... You know best that I would die without you...

전정국

I love you, sister.

After hearing that from Yoongi, I took a month off from work that day. I'd agreed with Jungkook to work three hours a day. We'd only come home for that amount of time or go out and hang out together. We'd go to the Han River food truck and offer her things like the green grape ade she often drank.

민윤기

(Handing over a glass of green grape ade) You have to try this...

민윤기

Don't you remember when I used to like it so much that I would drink it at least once a week?

Yoongi pushes back the hair of Yeoju that is blowing in the cool river breeze... The daily life with Yoongi comes as a fresh shock to Yeoju.

Since Yoon-ki was her ex-boyfriend, he often talks about the times they used to fight or memories, but since Yeo-joo doesn't have any memories of it, it feels good to hear about Yoon-ki's love life.

민윤기

When I told you I wanted to eat sushi but you didn't buy it

민윤기

I worked so hard to appease you~

민윤기

You kept being so upset that we ended up going to a 24-hour sushi place and eating.

김여주

(Laughing) 'This is fun. Do it again!'

Now, I'm falling for Yoon-ki so quickly that it's become a joy in my life to think over the stories he told me before I go to sleep.
