《Still in my heart》The goodbye
Advertisement
At Tongyeong, Eunbi cleans the common room while the children already asleep. They just had a little christmas party. They had dinner together and the children open the presents from Taekwang.
There's not many things to clean actually because the children already help her before they go to sleep. She's just finishing up.
She takes the trash bag and goes outside to throw it away. It's quite cold tonight. She only wear few layer of clothes. She throws away the garbage and walks towards the orphanage.
The sky is so clear. She looks at the sky and see the moon and the stars.
"It's beautiful" she says
She continues walking but from far, she sees someone standing in front of the door.
"Gong Taekwang?"
"Ya! Go Eunbi!"
"Why are you here? I thought you're with Soo Young?"
"Ya! Aren't you cold? You will get sick wearing only that." He takes away his jacket and puts on her shoulder.
"Gomawo. Let's go inside"
"Wait" he said and hug her.
"Ya!"
"Let me charge myself for awhile. I'm exhausted."
Eunbi hug him back and says, "you did a great job"
He pulls her away gently and hold her hand and they go inside together. Inside the orphanage, she serves him some leftovers food while Taekwang talks about his conversation with Soo Young.
"Is Soo Young okay?" Her voice full with concerned
"She looks fine. By the way, how's the children? Are they like my gifts?"
"They love it. They had so much fun."
"I'm glad to hear it. Hmmmm.. but I don't get you any gift. Mianhae."
"Ya! Gwenchana. Ya ya! Eat slowly. Are you that hungry?"
He nods and says, "i haven't eat since lunch. With this cold weather, it makes me hungry all the time."
"Aigoo. Look at that. There's a rice left near your mouth."
He lean over her and says, "take it from me"
She looks at him and push his head gently, "Ya! Do it yourself!"
"You're not fun!"
***
The next morning, the orphanage becomes noisy. She wakes up because of the sound. She goes downstairs and see Taekwang with the kids playing. He asks her to join them. They play until lunch time.
After eating lunch, Eunbi takes him to see the city. They go to the market, the shopping center and the school that she used to go. She hesitates at first. She didn't want to remember all the bad things that happened there. However, he holds her hands and makes sure that everything is going to be fine.
It's time for him to go back to Seoul, she takes him to the bus stop. She doesn't want to let go of his hand. He puts his other hand on her cheek and says, "See you in Seoul." He caresses her cheek and smiles. He goes inside the bus and they waved goodbye.
***
The next day, Taekwang goes to visit his dad.

"How's your preparation?" His dad asked
"It's going well. Are you sure you're going to be okay while I'm gone?"
"Gwenchana. They will release me soon. Next summer I'll visit you."
"But I can't see you when you're released."
"It's okay. So is your friend know that you will be gone after new year?"
"Soo Young knows."
"Only her?"
"Ne. I want to tell the other but I don't think it's necessary."
"Even the girl who have twin sister? Who is her name again? Go Eunbyul?"
"Go Eunbi. Go Eunbyul is her twins. But how do you know about her?"
"I saw you before. In the school. You looked really happy when you're with her."
"Ne. I haven't told her. I will. I think."
"Taekwang ah. Regret is forever, take the chance while you can."
"Ne."
"She looks like a good girl. It will be so nice if I have a daughter in law like her."
"Appa!"
"Haha.. i know you will make the best choice."
***
Taekwang is in the bus when he got a text from Eunbi. She just arrived at seoul and they plan to meet.
He gets off the bus stop near her house. She already waited for him. She waves and he approach her.
"Did you wait long?"
"Ne."
He took her hand and they take the next bus. They're going to the aquarium. It's not many people come there. They walk and see the giant aquarium.
"It's so pretty" eunbi said. She amazes with all the fish inside.
"Ya! You look like a kid"
"I don't care!"
"Hahaha you look so cute. No wonder I like you."
He realizes what just he said. He puts his hand on his mouth. Eunbi feels embarrassed. She doesn't look at him.
He says, "hahaha. Ya! Don't act like you don't know it. I said many times before."
"Me too." She smiles at him and walk away from him
"Huh? What?!"
"C'mon let's go!" She takes his hand.
After they eat dinner at the cafe near the aquarium, they decided to go home. They get off the bus and walk towards her house.
"Ya! Gong Taekwang! My house isn't in this direction."
"Ara. I just want to go to the playground first. I hope you wouldn't mind"
"Is something wrong?"
"C'mon lets go!"
They arrive at the playground and he says, "ah I never like this playground. Do you remember when we met here before you left. I said to you no matter how much I think.. I don't know how I can stop liking you.. it feels like yesterday."
"I remember."
"It still the same. My heart keeps beating hard every time I saw you. If only I can stop time.."
"Ya. Gong Taekwang wae geurae?"
"I'm leaving next week."
"Next week! What do you meant you're leaving?! Where're you going?"

"I'm going to study aboard. I'm going to US."
"You're leaving me?" She started to cry. Taekwang approach her and hug her.
"Mianhae Go Eunbi."
She pushes him and says, "you will come back right?"
"When the time comes, I'll come back to you."
"When?"
"I don't know. I can't go back here and forth as I wish. Mianhae."
"How could you do this to me? You make me like you and then you say that you're leaving?!"
"Eunbi ah. I don't meant to hurt you. No matter how far apart we are, my feelings for you will never change. I.."
"A week huh? And you tell me now?"
"I don't know how to tell you. Mianhae"
"You should tell me from the beginning! So I won't fall for you!"
She turn her body and start to walk away from him. He grab her wrist and stop her.
"Listen to me. This few months I thought so many times to tell you. I thought by giving you the distance we will able to forget all about us. I thought that you won't be sad if I go. I was wrong. I am sorry."
He releases his hands and says, "I'm not asking you to wait. I don't want you to wait for me."
"Then what do you want me to do? Forget about us?"
He nods and says, "yes."
He takes a deep breath. He pull her closely, wipe her tears and says, "I want you to be happy. I want you to fulfill your dream. I want you to become the best teacher in the world so you can help another eunbi. I love you. Always."
He kiss her.
***
Eunbi arrives in her home. She goes to her room and see her sister read. Eunbyul look at her and she gets up from her bed. She sees something wrong with eunbi. Eunbul hugs her and says, "wae geurae?"
Eunbi is crying and says, "Taekwang left me"
Eunbyul hugs her tightly and tap her shoulder gently.
***
Soo Young is on her way to her house. She looks Taekwang for the distance. She walks fast towards him and hit his shoulder to greet him.
"Ya! Gong Taekwang!"
Taekwang sees her and smile
"Ya! Why're you look so weak?"
"I tell her about my leaving."
"Gwenchana?"
"Ani. Na an gwenchana. I hurt her. I ask her not to wait for me. I ask her to forget about me."
"Ya! Michyeosseo! Wae?"
"I don't want her to suffer. Waiting for something unclear. She deserves someone better than me. Someone who can protect her, makes her smile, comfort her. Someone who always be there for her. I can't do that anymore."
"Ya! Pabo!" She hits him really hard.
"Ya! It's hurt!"
"You deserve it! Are you that afraid to give it try? Not everyone likes your parents. Not every relationship has to end like them. You'll regret it."
"Ara. But this is for the best."
***
Today Taekwang is leaving to US. He sits on the chair near in the terminal building. He look his surroundings but he doesn't recognize anyone there. He sits there for almost an hour. He see his watch. It's time for him to boarding. He pouts and stands up.
"Gong Taekwang!"
"Soo Young?"
"I come right on time. Are you going inside?"
He nods and says, "ne. Majayo."
"Is She coming?"
"Aniyo. Why would she?"
"But don't you want her to come? That's why you waited for her."
"You really know me, don't you?"
"Hahaha. Of course. We are friends right?"
He nods and says, "thank you for coming. I have to go now."
"Have safe flight"
Taekwang leaves her and she waves him goodbye.
***
Eunbi is helping her mother at the shop. She looks reckless and see the clock every two minutes. Eunbyul and her mom notice her weird behavior.
"Eunbi ah. Go" her sister said
"Ah unnie"
"Go. Or you will regret it."
"Aniyo. I'm not going. He already said goodbye. He wants me to forget about him. So I won't going."
"Eunbi ah he's an idiot! Are you really going to end it just like that?"
"Ne. I won't go."
"Araso. I never thought that you will give him up so easily. Actually it's good so I don't need to hear his name anymore. My life will be so perfect."
"He's the one who giving up first."
"Ne! Majayo. At least he had fight for you first before given up on you. And I was wondering what have you done for him? When you realize your feelings for him, you don't even do anything until he ran to you again. When you sick, he's the only one who notices it and takes you to hospital. He even know your dream but you never know his. But what the hell, I don't care actually. It was his lost so just forget him."
Her sister words hit her heart. There's an ache in her heart that won't go away.
She thought to her self, 'she's right. I never do anything for him. He takes care of me, he always give and never expecting anything in return.'
Eunbi looks at her sister and says, "I take him for granted. Don't I?"
Eunbyul answers, "who? I thought we finished talking about him."
"I have to go."
"Eomma is already waiting outside."
"Huh?"
"I know that you will go eventually. So go!"
"Gomawo unnie"
***
Eunbi arrives at the airport. She's running and looking for him. But she can't find him.
"He's already goes inside." Soo young said. She's standing behind Eunbi
"Soo Young?"
"Ne. I waited for you. I know you will come."
"Is he already gone?"
"Ne. He actually waited for you too."
"He did?"
"Ne. I know my words can't bring him back but i hope it can ease the pain. Time will heal the pain, maybe not tomorrow but one day it will go away. And I know someday he will be back. You already have a special place in his heart. Until that time, be strong."
"Gomawo."
She wipes her tears and they goes outside. She see a plane fly in the sky. Eunbi thought to herself, 'until we meet again'
