Sugar in Americano

23. The letter

(I recommend you watch the prologue again)

So, I am currently a freshman in college.

I'm currently cleaning up my house, which is a mess because I wasn't able to clean it up during my senior year of high school.

As I was opening my diary and recalling old memories,

Something popped up in between.

and fell

It was a letter.

A long, white envelope

The memory came back to me in an instant.

There was a call...just once.

On Monday evening, I heard he had left.

Just once.

A text message arrived.

민윤기

'I put the letter in the pocket of the coat I wore yesterday.'

At that time, I had a fever and was out of my mind,

And I know that no matter what excuses I hear, this feeling won't get better.

I took out the letter and put it between my diary.

I opened the letter with trembling hands.

Min Yoongi's unique crooked handwriting

It's been so long.

I miss you so much.

Even though a lot of time has already passed

Lightly spread on the letter paper

His scent

Because I missed you.

Tears welled up quickly

Talk on the letter paper.

And fell.

slowly

I turned my gaze and read the letter.

민윤기

To the heroine.

민윤기

My lady, my lady whom I love.

민윤기

My lovely heroine.

민윤기

I... had to go study abroad so suddenly.

민윤기

Ever since I was little, I wanted to do music.

민윤기

Because it was something my father was against until just before he passed away...

민윤기

I gave up on that dream and continued studying...

민윤기

That dream... is not easily achieved...

민윤기

I've been composing music all this time.

민윤기

I've been uploading it consistently on the internet,

민윤기

After hearing that, a famous foreign producer offered me a place to study in the United States.

민윤기

Because it was my dream that I raised without telling anyone.

민윤기

Maybe it was more precious.

민윤기

..I'm really selfish...right?

민윤기

So... I'm thinking of going to study abroad.

민윤기

I'll be back. I'll definitely be back.

민윤기

I'll be back in 3 years.

민윤기

If you work hard, you will definitely be back within 3 years.

민윤기

And three years later, back to where we first promised

민윤기

On that day, three years later, I will come to find you.

민윤기

If you don't want to accept it... it's okay if you don't come out. I'll wait.

민윤기

The reason I am writing this letter is,

민윤기

I know this is cruel to you... because you're flying so well...

민윤기

I just can't bring myself to open my mouth when I look into your eyes...

민윤기

It's written like this...

민윤기

It's okay if you hate me.

민윤기

I'm really bad...

민윤기

But, know this.

민윤기

I love you so much...

민윤기

I'm sorry I couldn't tell you in advance.

민윤기

If I told you directly, I really... felt like I would never be able to go.

민윤기

I love you, heroine.

민윤기

And I'm so sorry.

민윤기

Don't get sick while I'm away.

민윤기

Don't be sad while I'm away.

민윤기

Study hard and you will definitely achieve your dream.

민윤기

Be happy while I'm away.

민윤기

love you.

민윤기

Lady... I love you.

민윤기

I love you so much that it hurts so much...

민윤기

I love you, heroine.

민윤기

I'm sorry, heroine.

민윤기

Yoongi.

The letter was distorted in places, and the pen was slightly smudged.

I could tell that Min Yoongi cried a lot while writing the letter.

My tears and Min Yoongi's tears mixed together and soaked the letter paper.

I must have cried for about an hour, holding the letter in my arms.

I checked the calendar in a hurry.

It was today.

The day Min Yoongi decided to come.

The day we promised.

May 9th.

It's today.
