Capítulo 31: The Long-Awaited Reunion
"I have prepared everything I need to visit Mother, Father, Grandfather, and Halmoni," I whispered softly to myself, feeling a mixture of anticipation and sorrow. Spring was on the verge of fading away, and my sole objective was to see them before summer enveloped us. Leaving behind the belongings I had brought along, I stepped forward, ready to greet and converse with the cherished souls I held dear.
"Harmony, do you remember when I told you I disliked wearing black?" I began, my voice quivering with emotions. "Today, I stand alone, with no one by my side. Today, I am alone." Tears welled up in my eyes, threatening to spill over. I fought to hold them back, determined to stay strong for the future they had painstakingly built for me.
"You see, I can't recall the beauty of Seoul in spring anymore, or the chilling embrace of Jeju's cold," I continued, my voice trembling with a mix of longing and sadness. The weight of memories weighed heavily on my heart as if it had aged prematurely. In that moment, I bid them farewell, knowing that I had to find solace within myself. With every step I took, retracing my path, I couldn't escape the feeling of loneliness that engulfed me. I wiped away my tears, a bittersweet ache lingering within me, and made my way back to the waiting car, ready to return home.
As the car began to move, the silence enveloped me, and my thoughts drifted to the void that losing Halmoni had left behind. It felt as if I had no one to turn to, no one to share my joys and sorrows with. I closed my eyes, seeking comfort within the confines of my memories, finding solace in the love and wisdom Halmoni had bestowed upon me. In that quiet moment, I vowed to carry her strength within me, embracing the legacy she had left behind.
The journey back home was a blur as if time had suspended itself. The echoes of my silent tears still lingered, reminding me of the depths of my emotions. As I stepped out of the car, I took a deep breath, determined to move forward with the resilience that Halmoni had instilled in me. The path ahead might be arduous, but I knew that her spirit would guide me through the trials and tribulations that lay ahead.
With newfound determination, I crossed the threshold of my home, ready to face the world that awaited me. The memories of Halmoni and the love I held for my family propelled me forward, a beacon of strength in the face of adversity. Though their physical presence may have been absent, their essence lived on within my heart, forever etching an indelible mark upon my soul.
And so, as the sun set on that heart-touching day, I embarked on a new chapter of my journey, carrying the lessons, love, and memories of those who had shaped me. Their absence only made their presence more profound, for within the depths of my being, they would forever reside, guiding me with their unwavering love and support.
I approached the car, my thoughts consumed by a whirlwind of emotions. Lost in my own world, I was about to enter when a familiar voice pierced through the haze. "Remember me?" it asked, drawing my attention. Slowly, I turned around, my heart pounding in anticipation. There, standing before me, was the embodiment of the spring I had longed for. Yet, I couldn't help but question if this was merely another ephemeral dream, one that would vanish as soon as I reached out to touch it. However, reality proved to be more enchanting than any dream.
"M-Min," I whispered softly, a mix of disbelief and longing escaping my lips.
With a surge of emotions, I mustered the courage to address the present moment. "Now, am I having real daydreams?" I asked, a glimmer of hope shining in my eyes. "Uncle Cha, let's go to the hospital."
Before I could make a move, Minsu rushed towards me, grasping my hand tightly. His voice trembled with yearning as he questioned, "How long will you leave me?" At that moment, my mind flooded with memories. After an entire year, he stood before me, his smile mirroring the one etched in my heart. His eyes held the same unwavering love I had witnessed before. Overwhelmed by the surge of emotions, I acted instinctively. I kissed him without a second thought, wrapping my arms around him in a tight embrace, a silent declaration of my love and longing.
"Don't worry, I'm not going anywhere," Minsu assured me, his touch gentle as he caressed my head and pressed a tender kiss against my forehead. I clung to his hand, gripping it tightly, fearful that this moment might slip away.
Unable to contain the intensity of my emotions, I kissed him again, and in response, he held me even tighter. In that intimate exchange, any lingering feelings of shame or doubt melted away. Minsu's actions spoke volumes, reaffirming our deep connection. As he kissed my forehead, I felt a profound sense of solace, reassured that we were bound together by an unbreakable bond.
