"Please stay alive, my little baby." The words of her mother shattered her heart into a million pieces. The thought of losing her mother made her weak, but she wanted to go with her dad. "I am sorry mom, but I wanna go with dad." Her dad glanced at her with a hurtful gaze. "We have to live because I want you to take care of your mother and your brother. They need you. I want you to prove to them I am still with them in their hearts." She shook her head and held his hand. "Don't dad, not again." Her dad's heart clenched at seeing his princess crying. "Soo-Yun, you can't be selfish. You need to go to them—his words stuck into his mouth as he heard.

Doctors panicked. "She is not breathing, doctor." One of them said while checking her heartbeat. "No," the senior said. The place turned into chilly silence and everything turned into slow motion. Nothing was working. There is no way to make her awake. She smiled through her pain and glanced at her dad, who was staring at her lifeless body, and then at her mother, who was waiting for her daughter outside. Mrs. Leon closed her eyes, and a nightmare hit her so badly. "Mom, Mom, Mom," a little girl jumping in the beautiful park under the gigantic tree. "Mom, I found dad. He is taking me with him." Mrs. Leon smiled while looking at her little baby. Her happiness was visible in her eyes, which was making her mother grin. "Mom, dad said I have to stay with you but I wanna go with him. Please let me go happily. "Soo-Yun, I love you, and I need you here with me." Her mother said. A tear fell on her cheek as she opened her eyes. "Don't take our daughter with you, honey." She whispered, causing her husband to smile through pain. "I won't, I promise, my love." He answered and his wife felt it. She glanced through the glass on the door and found her husband's soul staring at her lovingly. "I love you," she mouthed to him, and he smiled. "I love you more."

The doctor came out of the operation theater and met his gaze to Soo-Yun's mother, who was waiting for good news. He glanced down and looked up again after taking a deep sigh. "She is out of danger now. It took so long because she wasn't ready to live. She was not trying to make it. I wonder why. She made every possible way to give up on her life. It is just a miracle. It feels like any angel saved her." Doctor said, making Mrs. Leon sobbed louder. She fell on the floor while crying in happiness. "Thank You Love." She thanked her husband, who was watching her from far away. "I love you, love." He whispered and glanced at her son. "Cham, take care of them. You are my hero." He patted his son's head and disappeared once again. "Dad, I love you." Little boy whispered under his breath. He smiled and made his way to mother because he felt what his dad was trying to say to him. He hugged his mother and rubbed her back. "Dad said he wanted me to take care of you, mom." Mrs. Leon smiled and nodded her head.

Jun-Sang was sitting under the tree, glancing at the kids who were playing football, causing him to smile. "We used to play together." He whispered as he recalled the memories of the past. "She has deep and big eyes. I love the way she used to cry when I hurt her mistakenly. She is still like a crybaby." He shook his head and laughed a little. "I love her so much, not as my wife but as my best friend, and I will always love her." Someone patted his shoulder, making him look at the person. "Jung-Ki?" He whispered, causing Jung-Ki to smile. "Can I sit here?" Jung-Ki asked, and Jun-Sang nodded his head and gave him some space beside him. "Nonna is out of danger now." Jun-Sang's eyes widened in shock. "What?" Jung-Ki nodded. "Doctor said she doesn't want to live, and she made every possible effort to give up on her life." Jun-Sang looked down in guilt, but the little boy showed him his brave side as well. "If you can't take care of her, then divorce her. I will take care of my sister and mother. They are my responsibility, not anyone's. I want to make sure that she will not cry again." A ten-year-old boy talked like a mature big man who wanted to protect his family. 

His words surprised Jun-Sang. His mature talk and behavior amazed him, causing him to question himself. "Do you think I am not good enough for her?" Jun-Sang asked, impatient. "Yes, because you got your ex back in your life. Nonna doesn't tell anyone about her feelings, but I am not a kid. I can see into her eyes." Jun-Sang frowned and glanced at him softly. "Nonna, love you. You were her first love after dad, but when you got someone. She used to cry a lot those days, and we were by her side at that time. One day Sang-Woon proposed to her, I didn't like that man at all. Nonna said yes to him because she thought she could move on after that. Things got worse after that. After he came into her life, we lost our dad." The little boy was saying everything emotionlessly while Jun-Sang was staring at him softly. "Jung-Ki." He whispered, making the little one stop saying further. "Well, let's go." He said and got up and left Jun-Sang confused and disturbed by his words, gaze, and pain. "Jung-Ki knows something which we don't." He said under his breath and started wondering about Jung-Ki's words. "I will find out."
