Episode 2. The Last Bucket List (Jimin)


(Jimin's point of view)

I am..

I'm dying tomorrow...


박지민
Heroine!

여주
Oh, why?


박지민
I made a bucket list!

여주
What are you going to do with that?


박지민
I'll do it all today.

여주
Where are you looking?


박지민
Sir! I'll read it to you ㅡ3ㅡ

여주
Okay..


박지민
First! Viewing cherry blossoms through the window!


박지민
Second! Go around the hospital!


박지민
Third! Kiss the heroine!


박지민
Four times.....

여주
...?

여주
Why did you stop reading?


박지민
I was curious, so I asked you♡

여주
Oh..no..


박지민
...


박지민
..Yeoju..Do you love me?

여주
Of course, then.


박지민
But why are you being so cold? ㅡ3ㅡ

여주
Why are you suddenly arguing?


박지민
I don't think I'll be able to pick a fight like this later.. haha

여주
..if I do it well, that'll be fine.

여주
Let's go around the hospital together today.


박지민
Okay haha


박지민
Oh... quiet...


박지민
Should we go down to the first floor too?

여주
Jimin...


박지민
why?

여주
Why are you acting so bright today?


박지민
..because I've been showing myself so depressed lately..?

여주
If it's hard, say it's hard, Jimin.


박지민
I don't want to do that today.


박지민
Hurry up and pull the wheelchair♡

여주
okay..

여주
Jimin, I need to go to the bathroom.

여주
Just wait a minute, okay?


박지민
Yeah, right.

The female lead ran to the bathroom and the nurse who often talked to Jimin spoke to her.

Nurse: Jimin, you're bright until the very end...


박지민
..It's brighter because it's the last one..


박지민
That way... you won't have any regrets later...

Nurse: Cheer up, Jimin.

Nurse: And tonight... please hold on... so that I can see Jimin smiling tomorrow morning...


박지민
..That's right, right?


박지민
Thank you for everything..

Nurse: What? They called me over there, so I'll go now.


박지민
Yes! Nurse, you too, cheer up!

Nurse: (Nods)

I really tried to laugh a lot.

Even if I may seem strange to others, I want to be remembered as a bright person to others.

That's why I never lost my smile.

박지민
I had a great time seeing the cherry blossoms and going around the hospital today!


박지민
Now there's only one left

여주
Not two?


박지민
Um... I think I won't be able to do one in the end?


박지민
First, let's kiss, heroine♡

여주
(side-)


박지민
Hehehe good♡

여주
Now go to sleep, Jimin.

여주
I have to go to bed early and wake up early tomorrow.


박지민
yes..


박지민
..Hey lady, when you wake up tomorrow morning, be sure to read the letter I put inside my coat..

여주
..why..like someone leaving far away..


박지민
No..just..


박지민
You can't just read secretly in the middle of the night and stuff like that-

여주
okay-


박지민
I love you, heroine haha

여주
..me too..

These were my last words.

(Yeoju's point of view)

10:13 AM
여주
Ugh... Jimin...

여주
You're not up yet...

There was no movement at all.

Just in case, I checked to see if Jimin was breathing.

I wasn't breathing.

The bright and cheerful look from yesterday flashed by.

The meaningful words all fit together like a puzzle in an instant.

Even though Jimin knew he was going to die, he never once told me.

I couldn't do anything when people came to check on the death, record it, and move Jimin, who was no longer alive.

Suddenly, I remembered what Jimin had said and I looked for the letter in Jimin's coat.

The letter was as follows:

[To the heroine]

[Hey, it's Jimin.]

[Uh... by the time you read this letter... I'll be in heaven, right?]

[Lady, I'm sorry I couldn't tell you in advance...]

[I'm sorry for leaving you alone..]

[Don't worry, I'll be just as bright in heaven as I am here!]

[Our heroine is still young, so she'll meet a good person, okay?]

[Don't cry because I'm not here. Just be strong and stay strong just like you are!]

[I loved you, heroine..]

[Jimin before going to heaven]

In addition to the letter, there was another piece of paper in the coat.

It was Jimin's last bucket list item.

[The fourth and final time! Stay by the heroine's side]

It was such a small thing, but it was so difficult for Jimin.

When I finished reading the letter and bucket list, tears were flowing.

How can you be so bright until the end?

I just felt sorry for Jimin.

All the actions I took were disappointing and regrettable.

I hugged Jimin's coat and cried endlessly.

I want to see Jimin smiling brightly.

I want to hear Jimin's voice full of happiness.

I really want to tell Jimin something, even just once.

You were the brightest person in my life

You were the only person who understood me

You were my everything in life

I was wrong, so please come back.

There are many things I want, but I can't achieve them all.

It's already too late.

When I die and meet Jimin later, he might resent me...

If I ever meet you, I think I'll just say this.

Thank you for waiting

I'm so happy to see you again.

I still love you...

-THE END-
