This story will not change the background and will last up to episode 4. It's not fun.

Parting on a Rainy Day, Chapter 1. The beginning of a terrible parting.

If you ask me what I never want to experience again in life, I would say it's a breakup.

To be more specific, a parting on a rainy day.

I was an ordinary middle school student. A second year middle school student, in the midst of puberty.

Everything was so frustrating and I took it out on my family.

I always said, "It's puberty."

I completely ignored my family as if puberty was some big deal or something.

The first ordeal came to me, who always seemed so happy and confident.

Mom and Dad said they were going out for a bit and would be back in the evening.

But no matter how much time passed, he never came back.

But I just ignored it and thought, 'I guess there's some traffic.'

I must have fallen asleep like that, but I woke up in the middle of the night to my phone ringing continuously.

I checked and it was my mom calling. Why are you calling at this hour? It's so annoying.

Anyway, when I picked up the phone, it wasn't my mom's voice, but someone else's.

Excuse me. Are you Mr. 000's daughter?

여주

Yes, by the way. Who are you to have my mom's phone?

간호사

This is Hospital 00. My mother was taken here after a car accident. My father was also taken here. Please come to Hospital 00 quickly.

Thump-

What? What happened to my mom and dad?

At that moment, my legs gave out and I collapsed.

Hospital 00... I quickly packed my padding and ran outside.

Fortunately, I was able to get there quickly and was guided to the operating room, where I just waited for the surgery to be over quickly.

An hour, two hours. Time passed without a trace, and after about five hours, the doctor finally came out.

I grabbed the doctor's collar and spoke in a trembling voice.

What happened to my mom and dad?

I lowered my head and heard a small voice.

의사

sorry...

What is this? What is this?

What are you sorry about? Where are my mom and dad?

의사

Mr. 000 and Mr. 000 passed away at 7:13 AM on 00/00/2013.

The moment I heard this, my mind went blank.

여주

No. No. No. No. No..! There's no way... There's no way our mom and dad would do that... It's a lie. It's a joke.

여주

Hurry up and bring my mom and dad here. Don't lie. Where are my mom and dad right now? They should be right in front of me right now! Where are my mom and dad!

의사

...sorry...

Honestly, I wanted to believe it was a hidden camera. But no matter how much I thought about it, there was no one's birthday, no major event, nothing. It was just so miserable.

I tried hard to deny reality, but this was reality, and reality, the time that had already passed, could not be changed.

I sat there and cried for hours.

People passing by seemed to think I was a weird kid.

That's understandable, since he sat there for hours crying without moving...

I came to my senses after almost two hours and was about to go home. It was now 9:30 AM.

I have a younger brother.

Suddenly I thought of my younger brother and ran over to him.

As expected, it was as expected.

My younger brother is awake.

My younger brother smiles brightly when he sees me.

What should I do?

I have no one to rely on right now, and I have to take responsibility for this child...

My younger brother, who was smiling at me, asks me.

Where did you go, sister?

여주

Huh? Just a sec...

동생

What about mom and dad?

I didn't want to tell this to a child like that just yet, but I figured she would find out someday, and it wouldn't be long before that would be even more shocking, so I decided to just tell her.
