"Yes, yes. I would like to transfer her to a hospital in Jeju right away." Mr. Park asked the doctor, abefore he excused himself. Minji was still on shock dahil una, hindi pa rin niya natatanggap lahat ng impormasyong halos pasabugin na ang isip niya sa sobrang dami. Pangalawa, hindi pa siya handa sa pansamantalang pagpapahinga mula sa trabaho niya, at sa paglayo mula sa kanila.
She wanted to tell Jeonghan about this, but she cannot due to the situation. Masyadong malayo si Jeonghan sa kaniya ngayon dahil nga sa trabaho nito. Hindi rin siya pinayagan ng ama na kausapin ang mga ito, payo na rin lang ni Karissa.
"Dad, am I dreaming?" Jimin suddenly came in to her hospital room, with a cast on his neck. Wounds and bruises were still visible all around his body. Napatingin naman si Minji sa hawak ni Jimin.
Renjun.
"You're not, son. You are a father now." Mr. Park plastered a smile to his only son before turning his gaze back to Minji. Ngumiti naman si Jimin pabalik sa ama at sa kaniyang kapatid. He walked closer to them and placed baby Renjun beside Minji.
"I don't know what's gotten into me at nagawa ko ang mga bagay na 'yon kay Minji. Kaya ngayon pa lang, bago tayo pumunta sa Jeju, humihingi na ako ng tawad sa mga nagawa ko, Min. Please forgive your Kuya, Minmin." A tear suddenly fell out of her eyes when she heard her brother said that. Agad niya itong hinila para yakapin at malugod naman itong tinanggap ng kapatid. Sumali na rin si Mr. Park sa dalawa bago biglang bumukas ang pintuan at iniluwa noon ang mga nurse, kasama si Ms. Hwang, ang mama ni Minji.
"Ang sweet naman, payakap din ako bago tayo umalis." Agad namang lumapit si Ms.Hwang sa kanila at binigyan sila ng mahigpit na yakap.
"Trust me. This new life, would be more exciting than what we had." Her mother tapped her shoulder, before letting the nurses take her out of the room.
Maybe this is the end of this chapter.
Someday, I will look at his eyes again, with no trace of love visible on my eyes.
All this time, I loved him so much.
But all I received from him was, pain.
