"Don't be hard on yourself iha. Don't let these things ruin you. Be brave and tough to face everything" Mr. Im tapped Jeongyeon's shoulders.

The Im's decided to migrate to U.S. Marahang lumuhod si Jeongyeon sa harapan ng nakawheelchair na si Nayeon. Tulala lang ang babae.

Nayeon never talked again after she was rescued. The jolly Nayeon was gone.

"Hey, Nayeon-ah" Jeongyeon held her hands.

"I'll visit you there. Please be well. I'm expecting you to back to your old self when I go there okay?" Pigil na iyak na kausap ni Jeongyeon sa babaeng walang kabuhay buhay ang mga mata at diretso lang ang tingin sa kawalan.

"Please come back Nayeon" Jeongyeon sobbed.

Pagod na umuwi si Jeongyeon sa bahay nila ni Mina at naabutan nyang wala parin ito. The whole month has been tough for them.

"Beibu.. when are you planning to come home? I missed you. I missed us. Please come home to me" Jeongyeon closed her eyes.

Jeongyeon cried after sending the voice message. Ilang linggo nang hindi umuuwi si Mina. Jeongyeon gave her her own space. Alam ni Jeongyeon na stress ito dahil sa resulta ng exam.

Ang huling kita pa nya sa babae ay nung dumalaw ito kay Nayeon sa ospital and that was two weeks ago. Ganun pa man, Jeongyeon never failed to update Mina about her daily routine.

Jeongyeon scanned the whole room, their bedroom. How did they end up like this? They are so close to being married. Evrything wa already planned, mula sa mga gusto ni Mina, sa venue.. sa mga isusuot. The plan was to get married after Mina's exam, passed or failed... but everything seems shaky now.

Si Mina nalang ang inaantay nya, pero ayaw nyang ma-pressure ito that;s why she never brought the topic about the wedding again.

Jeongyeon wants to do it in Mina's phase and she doesn't mind waiting for the girl.

Upon hearing Jeongyeon's voice message, her heart felt like it was torn into pieces.

"Mina?" Kai called her, kasalukuyan silang nakaupo sa mahabang hapagkainan kung saan kasama din ang mga magulang nila.
