Chapter 99 - Just let me see her (2/2)

Her father wordlessly gets up and takes the position at the door. Kang Si An isn't even invited inside the house. Whether he is bleeding or dying, he has to see her.

Kyuri's mother notices the blood dripping from his clothes. She gasps.

”You are bleeding.”

Kyuri's father grimaces at him. ”Did you run away from the hospital?”

Kang Si An reveals a pained smile. ”I am fine. Just let me see her.”

Her mother purses her lips. How does her daughter know this man? The relationship between this man and her daughter can't be simple.

Upstairs, her brother knocks her room. She opens it and looks at him. ”I don't want to see him.”

”He told me that he remembers.” Her brother frowns a bit. The man did look desperate. ”Who is he? What does he remember?”

”He is someone I don't want to see,” She tells him coldly. ”Tell him to recall my last promise that I made to him that night.”

She closes the door and walks to her bed. She can hear all the voices. She lies down on the bed and stares at the ceiling quietly. Her heart hurts. There is nothing left of her to give him. Her pride, her body, her love... he has taken everything at once and crushed it with his feet. She doesn't feel like living or dying. That night, he damaged something inside her. It doesn't matter anymore whether he remembers or not. She isn't someone who will forgive. She will keep her words. He won't ever see her again.

”She won't see you.” Her brother comes running downstairs. ”She told me to tell you that you should remember the promise she made to you that night.”

Kang Si An collapses on the spot. His stitches are broken. He is suffocating, not because of the physical pain. The promise that she made that night...

'I promise you this. No matter what happens in the future, whether you die or live, whether you beg me on your knees, whether you cry for me to come back, whether you remember or not, I will never ever forgive you for doing this to me, Kang Si An. You won't be able to see me ever again even in the afterlife.'

She won't see him. Then, it's better than he dies here.

”Ki Hyun, call the ambulance.” Kyuri's father yells. ”He is going to die.”

”No.” He grips the door handle and stands up. ”Don't call anyone. I won't leave until she comes to see me. I will wait for her.”

He slowly walks outside and sits down on his knees in front of her house. The pain in his body is nothing compared to what he inflicted on her. He keeps his eyes on the window on the first floor of the house. The lights are on. The curtains are drawn.

”Kyuri,” He calls her name, wondering if she can hear.

A dark silhouette appears behind the window. He can recognize it anywhere. ”Kyuri, forgive me.”

Kyuri leans against the window, listening to his voice. She curses the time crystal to give her high hearing. She doesn't want to hear or see. She doesn't want to get hurt anymore.
