My Marshal And Me//Lisoo 리수 [Complete]

Chap.37: It's time to choose

«Unnie! Unnie!» a 5 years old girl called me
«Ne?» I asked curious
«Why awe you here?» she had a confused face
«Cause, let's simply said that a bad man, which is my father was really mean to me and almost killed me, but I end up in a coma. Which are I think two and a half months since that happened? I'm not sure...»
She nodded «Unnie, what's a coma?»
The other kids looked at me curiously and I thought on how to explain in it in a easy way «Well, it's when someone fall asleep for an unknown amount of time and never wakes up. It could last some days, to some weeks, to months, to even years. Sometimes during that period people can go into a vegetative state, which means your brain is dead. In that case you're also basically dead so adults have to decide to let the person go or keep her in that state with a machine, knowing that the person won't ever come back.»
They all made an 'O' with their mouths and a 4 and a half years old boy asked me «Noona, this can hapwen to you? Or it have already happen?»
I smiled «Yeah, that could happen to me, but it still didn't. Or else I think I would know... I think...» I shrugged «I have to decide whether to go back or stay here.»
The same boy asked me «So you can live again?»
I nodded «If my body doesn't give up now.»
Two twins, a girl and a boy 9 years old, told me at the same time «Then go back! What are you doing here!?»
I sighed «Here I have my mom and sister and I could start a new life. There I have a new family, friends, my best friends and the girl I love and an old complicated life...»
The girl of the twins said «You should go back. You have more there than here. Plus there's this girl you like, you two can be together!»
I said «But what if it doesn't work out? Plus...» I looked down and kisses the head of Eunha, a 3 years old little girl that was in my lap «I'm scared...»
The first 5 years old kid told me «But love isn't scawy. Love is bweautiful.» she threw her arms in the air smiling
I said «But a two girls relationship isn't well seen.»
The girl asked «But why??? Love is love, and that what matter, rwight?»
I smiled and ruffled her hair «You kids are always so honest and innocent...»
A guy, probably around 20-22 years asked me «I didn't mean to listen but my little sister came to play with you and this kids and I was coming to get her and I heard. Listen, it's been two and a half months, you have to choose. I studied medicine before getting killed in a shooting on my first day to work, you're body will surely have enough issues, as the time that passed is a lot and if what I think happened to you is true, no matter of everything is healed, your body is not being active, it didn't get stronger and you have a higher risk of dying. You're really risking everything for your fear.»
I sighed «I know... But I really don't wanna regret my decision.»
He smiled «I don't think you would regret going back.»
«IF I go back, will I remember this place? The people? What have been told to me? All I have experienced?»
He shook his head «It will be just a dream to you. Then it will be up to you if believe that happened or not.»
I nodded and letting the little girl in my lap sit on the ground, I stood up and bowed «Thanks for the heads-up khm...»
He bowed and said «Lee Min-hyuk.»
