The Life Of Lily Wilkinson (ENG)

*+:｡.｡ 26 ｡.｡:+*

In the evening, when little Ben was already asleep, Liliana cleaned up the remaining things and went to the bedroom. Woman sat on the bed, her back against the wall. She glanced at the nightstand and saw Jikyo's favorite book. Lily has read it several times and never ceases to be bored. After a while, woman took out her phone and looked through the photos of her with her husband. At the sight of happy memories, blonde smiled involuntarily.

"Are you recording me? " Jikyo said from the video that Wilkinson had turned on. "Is it so funny?" He asked with amusement.

"Yes, why not?" Liliana's voice was equally amused. "Maybe you should be an actor, you look great in profile." She giggled.

"I'm already a good actor in everyday life anyway. " Park looked at his wife in the video. "You see, I was wrong. " He sighed. "You're just a little beautiful. "

"Oh, you bastard! " Blonde slapped him on the shoulder, which amused her husband even more.

"You see, I deliberately kept quiet about it so that you could marry me." He said, still amused. "You're not getting away from me now." He laughed as he adjusted his sunglasses.

In the recording, a young couple was in the car. While Jikyo was driving, Lily was recording him with her phone.

"And I'm not going to, nae salang. " She said, emphasizing the last words, which caught her husband's attention. "Your face now is priceless! " Woman laughed. "You know, Park Jikyo, you are my love too. " She said, and her words made the man smile.

"Salanghaeyo,* nae salang." Jikyo said happily.

"Mm, nado salanghaeyo.** " Woman replied and after a while the video ended.

Liliana sighed softly and then lay down on the bed hugging the pillow. Before she fell asleep, she softly hummed her lullaby, and memories of her husband flashed through her mind. After several long minutes, blonde finally managed to fall asleep.

"You know, last time I saw your Lily. " Trent said looking at his boyfriend. "She looked very depressed. " He added worriedly.

Jiho sighed heavily.

"Lily is strong, but..." He began, then turned to the other man. "Jikyo's death killed her. " He said sadly. "I thought she'd never recover from that. Everything pointed to this, seeing her behavior... My heart broke because I couldn't do anything to help her. " He said, and Trent listened carefully. "If only you could see her then..." He shook his head. "Her empty look... She was pale, emaciated and rejected everyone, even Ben."

"Even her own son? " Trent was surprised.

"Mm..." Song nodded. "She didn't want to look at him. "

"Why? "

"I'm not sure. " Man replied. "Maybe because he reminded her too much of Jikyo. " He looked at his beloved. "And since the real Jikyo was gone... You know. " He said sadly.

"So what's changed? " Trent asked curiously. "She's acting different now."

"I don't know what exactly happened. " Jiho replied and sat next to his boyfriend. "She was in this state for a very long time, we were all starting to lose hope... We thought that with Jikyo gone, we'd lose Lily too... And that's how it was at first." He said. "But then, suddenly, something changed. Literally, day by day. Lily suddenly showed up at Andre and Jade's, and the first person she asked about was Ben. " He smiled sadly. "She apologized to her son, the Dubois couple, and even to me..." He glanced at Trent. "Everything changed in an instant. "
