M E M O R I Z E

When I opened my eyes, the ceiling of Sangoth looked blurry. A dazzling morning sunlight pierces through the window and bends in at an angle.

You take a breath, and the cold air catches you. I woke up in my dreamy head, but I still felt like I was dreaming. As I look around, waiting for the dizziness to subside, the familiar structure of the room catches my attention. Then it's a cozy, fluffy feel that touches the flesh.

I only realized then. The fact that I woke up in an office. I was going to wait for him yesterday, but he just fell asleep. I remember thinking about taking a break and lying in bed, but I think I'm going to fall asleep. I guess I've been feeling a little overwhelmed lately.

He glanced back and saw the record on his desk and the stuffed candles.

“ ……. ”

My forehead is still sore. I shook my hand under the duvet thinking of shaking my head and getting up.

"Huh?

As I was getting up, I felt something soft in my hands. Small, warm, soft and tender. Something in the duvet was twisting and twisting.

At first, I didn't think it was so strange. I feel good about it, but I just stabbed it and tortured it.

“Eeee…. ”

But at that moment, I stopped doing what I was doing.

Reflexively, he stammers, but his mouth tightens from the moment he wakes up. I noticed a sheet of salmonella in my mind just in case. And in the duvet....

“Color…. Color…."

At the dawn of the day, there was something that was holding my breath that was curled up in my chest. I stared blankly down.

Bright silver hair that reflects the morning sun. A sharp, loving ear in between. Bright and fluffy skin like a baby. The small but slick figure of the curve showed that something was a girl in about the second grade of elementary school. and 13 pairs of wings that cover your entire body, visible from your back.

It was a moment of awareness.

“Tsk…. ”

She shrugged and put her head on my chest even more. It was like an aura of something telling me to give you a blanket, but I didn't even think to cover it up. I just feel like I'm suddenly fascinated, and I reach out and put my hand on my shiny hair without knowing it. Suddenly, my ears, which were sagging, suddenly stood up.

When I stroke it gently, does it feel good? Soon my ears began to falter. If I let go of my swipe, I limp, but if I stroke again, I move. Oh, that's lovely.

“Yes... Hmmm..."

The girl, who was twitching and panting, slowly raises her head. My eyes were still so sleepy, but I was shifting around my eyes. At some point, my confused eyes stare at me dizzily, which is revealed between my bright eyes. Like her hair, her divine energy was beautiful silver.

The static settled for a moment.

“Marni?”

As I was already expecting it to be almost certain, I broke the silence lightly.

“… Dad. ”

Girl, no, Mar didn't betray my expectations either. I glanced at you.

“When did you get here? ”

“Today…. In the morning…."

Speaking in a voice that has not gone to sleep yet, I was trying to wake up the thin, shiny body. When I put my arms around him calmly, I smiled and moved my arm and leg like a hug.

After blinking, I closed my eyes and stared at me with a slippery glance. And he smiled and approached his face.

Page.

“… Ah? ”

Suddenly, I felt a soft touch on my cheeks. As soon as I woke up, my lips looked like buds and blossoms. It was a perfect but miraculous kiss.

“Marya, you scared me. ”

I felt ashamed and pushed myself up into the air as hard as I could while lying down.

“Dad.”

Still, I smile with a young frenzy that asks me to keep hugging the radish. He smiled without even knowing it.

It was then.

“Hurr...? ”

“Beep?”

Suddenly, the duvet moves from your toes, and it starts to flutter up like a wave. Immediately, a silver flashing horn and a yellow blanket popped out of the blanket next to it. Curious eyes, two sets of eyes looking up at Mar. As soon as I met that gaze, I was very happy.

It was a unicorn and a young Pegasus that showed more maturity than before.

“You were there. Hahaha.”

The unicorn's eyes widen, and he howls. Baby Pegasus smiles slightly as if he didn't like something, then turns his head. Oh, my God, you're still a widow. I shook the hair that had been lifted up into the air and held Mar in my arms, waving my hair that was blocking my vision. The freshness that was unique to the child stimulated the tip of the nose. I gently sweeped away Mar's lustrous hair.

“Dad... Ah..."

At that moment, I suddenly felt a tingling sensation in my heart. As I looked down, I could see that Mar's expression had changed slightly. Until just now, it was a cheeky face, but suddenly my eyes and mouth were weak. Now I don't know whether to laugh or cry.

“Ah…. Ah..."

At that moment, Mar's crying face suddenly shifted to one side.

“Oh, Dad... Dad..."

Slowly fading eyes.

“Look, look…. ”

A trembling mouth.

Despite the seemingly impatient effort, Mar finally couldn't bear it.

“I missed you... ”

Suddenly, the voice coming out of the mouth suddenly changed pathetically, and clear tears began to fall from my closed eyes. Eventually, a long time passed, followed by a horrible sound.

“Ugh…. Uh-uh-uh..."

“I'm sorry. You've been worried sick. ”

I clapped my little back and spoke in a whispering voice.

Mar continued to cry for a while.

After you wake up in the morning and have your reunion.

I went down to the cafeteria after finishing my dry cleaning with two receipts. I haven't been able to leave for a long time, so I was thinking of returning to Atlanta right after just eating this morning. That's what I said in the beginning.

Most of the restaurant had clan members waiting for me. After a brief greeting, I spoke with Seung Woo Jo about his support for restoration of the city that he couldn't yesterday. I didn't have to tell her how well she spoke. The story continued to gather materials and residents, and it was all about getting ready to move on to the North after three months.

When I kept talking like that, Sang-nam brought me a beautiful meat yogi on a large plate that smelled delicious at one point in the kitchen. It was a dish that looked very tasty with lots of brown sauce on its ripe exterior. It's been a proper dinner for a long time.

Of course, I'm not bad at classical music or the food skills of Imhanna, but I'm tired of eating stew all the time. I immediately lunged with a fork.

“Mar, are you being silly because he's here today? ”

While he was obsessed with eating, Sang-nam suddenly asked kindly with a good smile. Mar sits on my lap, teasing me hard, and opens his eyes, wondering what to do.

“Oh, no... ”

She lowers her head, muttering in a mosquito voice.

“Clan Road. Mar is so nice and supportive. Laughing at our worries, praying for Clan Lord's safe return in one day. I did it yesterday, but now that Clan Lord is here, I'm a little young. ”

Sang-nam smiled and said lovingly. I also lightly laughed and cut the meat into small pieces and put it in Mar's mouth. He blushes slightly, but accepts it, then grumbles softly. I laughed once at the restaurant because I thought it was cute. Yesterday, the calm air seemed to revive a little bit.

Then I suddenly thought of one person. To someone who hasn't shown up at the restaurant yet.

“Then Hanbyol... ”

“I went there before, but he said he won't eat. ”

As I looked around, Nono said in a sharp voice. Seeing that he is making a worried face.

“He's been standing in front of the tomb since this morning.... I wonder... Phew. ”

“It was almost a teacher/pupil relationship. It's a real shock. So Clan Road. Clan Lord is a bit... ”

Cho Seung Woo was worried about whether he could sympathize with Nono's sigh. I tapped the table a few times with a fork and opened my mouth quietly.

“I should. But right now, I just want to let her cry. ”

“Still.”

He said, "He's a good kid. Overworrying can be poisonous. ”

“ ……. ”

I cut to pieces and started eating again. And I was silently reminded.

Kim Hanbyol, who couldn't see a single tear in hell, cried a lot yesterday. I cried and wept for hours that I thought my parents were really dead. I shed tears so sadly that I might have continued if I hadn't been confused.

Cho Seung Woo would probably be shocked. When I was banished from the clan by the children, the one who was counting on me was you.

But I believe in Kim Han Star. Maybe the other kids would have asked me to grow up a while ago, but Kim Hanbyol is a very distinguishing character from the public. So now you can grieve as much as you want. It was a question of whether we could overcome it when we went back to our daily lives. And Kim will be able to do it by postponing the appearance that has been shown so far.

Some time passed.

After breakfast, I finished saying goodbye beforehand. Mar pretends not to hide his disappointment, but nods vigorously when he says he'll be in touch often. The unicorn now bows slightly with a steady stance, and baby Pegasus bites my ankle.

I told you not to show yourself out. Cho Seung Woo insisted that he couldn't do it, but he immediately accepted it as soon as he said he would leave quietly, just the two of him.

After saying goodbye in the restaurant, I moved to the garden. Kim Hanbyol stood still in front of the grave as he had heard during dinner. Yesterday I cried a lot, but my tears are still flowing in my confused eyes.

Kim Hanbyol didn't see any reaction when I approached him. I don't want to be clumsy anyway, so I took the candle out of my arms quietly.

‘Let's see…. Shin Yong was on the right. Then the tomb of the inspiration is to the left. ’

Out of the three candles I took out, I lit two of them on fire and placed one on each grave. It was not a particularly meaningful behavior. It's just my way of mourning.

We put one lotus candle at a time and stood next to Kim Hanbyol and said, "Grandpa, you're not burning the first year....” I hear the soliloquy. I laughed without saying anything. He then bit one of the remaining candles and lit a fire.

“You can stay if you want. You can give Chus as much time as you want. ”

Hehe said, spitting smoke.

“... I've felt it before. ”

Kim Hanbyol opened his mouth. It was completely negative.

“I think you're delirious. It's as if emotion doesn't exist. ”

“I've been through a lot. I'm used to it.”

I dared not speak back. Then I felt his gaze, but I didn't look back.

Afterwards, after burning and plucking down the candles, I bowed my head politely and did the last greeting.

“In the record…. What did it say? ”

Kim Hanbyol opened his mouth a little more cautiously. I thought I'd show you the record I put in my arms, but then I decided to just open my mouth.

“Thank you and I'm sorry. Please fulfill your intentions in Hall Plain. ”

“ ……. ”

“And don't be careless with me, please be nice to me. What about you?"

“I…. ”

Immediately, Gimhanbyol showed a slightly surprised and hesitant expression.

It was only after a long time that Gimhanbyol opened his mouth.

“Thank you and I'm sorry. ”

Same so far.

Kim Hanbyol continued to say.

“I hope the knowledge about the jewels you taught me was helpful.... ”

“ ……. ”

“Opportunities don't come without waiting. ”

“Well, that's kind of corny, but nice.... But I think you were wrong about the last one. ”

I had a strange look on Kim Han-star's face. I shrug.

“You didn't just wait, did you? So at that time... ”

I deliberately blurred the ending.

“You haven't answered me yet.... ”

Suddenly, Gimhanbyol showed a dazed face, but soon he grumbled badly, stealing his face with the back of his hand. And I sighed loudly.

I looked at Kim Han-star for a moment and opened my mouth quietly.

“Anyway, you're free to rest and follow me. The choice is yours. ”

After saying that, I turned around and walked to the front door.

After a while.

“... come with me. Brother.”

I could feel Kim Han-sul following me.

“I don't even know. I'll give you a hand... ”

Then I heard a complaint that sounded like you had to listen to me, and I slowly held out my hand. The cold and soft feel grabs my hand.

So we walked together holding hands.

Towards Atlanta.

Yes, that concludes this part as of today. It's actually the end of an episode. The story that focuses on urban development is told here, and now we have to paint a new episode using the abdominal scaffolding we've been spraying.

And... Thank you for mourning the death of Iman Sung yesterday. In fact, I'm not sure it's the right position to be thankful for the death of a character. But it's still a character that I created. I just felt thankful. Hahaha.

So I'm going to look forward to hearing a new story tomorrow.

All readers have a pleasant evening._(__)_
