[T] Quirky Cats
| Episode 22 |
When I returned to the hospital room, Wheein seemed lost in thought.
휘인
Oh... you're here?
Wheein's tone was kind and warm, but her eyes seemed very scared.
별이
What happened..?
휘인
...I'm just anxious.
별이
What are you... anxious about?
Yongseon couldn't bring himself to speak to Hwiin. He just quietly patted her.
휘인
Am I...dying?
별이
..no
휘인
You're not abandoning me, are you?
Wheein asked, sobbing.
휘인
Me... Me... Can I live..?
용선
Why...wheein...
혜진
I think Wheein noticed...
용선
What did you say to Wheein?
혜진
No..just..going to a nice place..
...
Jeong Hwi-in is finally dying.
Wheein's ears were floppy like a wet puppy, and the fur on her tail was falling out.
용선
Did Ahn Hye-jin hit Wheein?
혜진
What are you talking about?
휘인
I don't know.. my hair just kept falling out..
Wheein answered Yongseon's question in a frightened manner.
용선
..don't worry, you won't die..
"It's time to euthanize the patient now..."
용선
Let's go, Wheein.
Wheein's pupils dilated significantly and tears began to form in her tear ducts.
휘인
I... said I wouldn't throw it away...
용선
..I'm sorry, Wheein.
휘인
How could you do that..? Why are you killing me..? Because I made it too hard? Or is it because you hate me..? If that's the case, I won't do it.. So please...
혜진
let's go.
Yongseon woke up Wheein with an expression that said he couldn't stand to see her anymore.
휘인
Don't kill me... I... I... want to live with the stars...
별이
Don't do it.. Jeong Hwi-in, stop it now..
휘인
...I guess I was meant to be abandoned by everyone. So... I guess that's why I lived like such a fool. Thank you for liking me, even though I'm selfish and self-willed.
Wheein shook off Yongseon's hand and ran off somewhere. Byul hid her pain and regretted saying such harsh things to Wheein.
Hyejin was already out of the hospital room. Perhaps... Hyejin had followed Wheein.
As expected, Jung Hwi-in was here.. Hwi-in's tear-filled face was visible between her hair blowing in the wind.
I couldn't call out to Wheein, who was walking forward, one step at a time, two steps at a time. More than anything, it was you who was having a hard time.
휘인
Hyejin.
휘인
Can you help me..?
혜진
..huh?
휘인
Give me a push on my back.
휘인
I'm so scared I can't take the last step.
혜진
...Wheein...
휘인
Hyejin, you don't hate me...
혜진
no..
휘인
If you had said no from the beginning... you would have died easily already... but now you've come too far...
혜진
Wheein... I'm sorry.
휘인
You already knew, right..?
혜진
...huh
휘인
So please kill me now.
혜진
Don't do that.. It was my fault.. I'm sorry for pretending not to know..
휘인
Sorry.
휘인
And I loved it.
Wheein took her last step, wiping away tears.
By the time the dragon ship and the stars arrived, Wheein had already fallen.
...
Sorry.
