‘It wasn’t because she ignored me because she hated me.’
Somehow, a relieved sigh escaped.
“Is that person also in this hospital? Do you happen to know the room number?”
Fortunately, that person wasn’t too badly injured. Still, she wanted to see for herself how she was and express her gratitude. Most of all, she wanted to ask why she embraced her back then, but even after asking several times, the nurse refused to provide information, citing it as personal information.
The writer also seemed clueless.
“Well, I don’t know. Maybe the PD knows?”
Chris quickly looked disappointed. Having already been dropped by the production team, how could he contact them?
“Anyway, Chris, rest well now. If you get up, you’ll soon be disoriented.”
“Yes?”
Although he asked what that ominous statement meant, the writer did not answer.
“There’s something like that. Well, then I’m going!”
Sitting alone in the quiet hospital room, Chris recalled the situation at that time.
Fortunately, the collapsed debris wasn’t too heavy, so they could be rescued soon. Even while being carried in an ambulance, Chris only asked about the well-being of the woman.
“[What about the woman who was with me? What happened to her?]”
“[Please stay still, she’s a patient!]”
“[I’m fine!]”
Two days had passed since then, but even though they were in the same hospital, he still couldn’t find out about her well-being. He heard that she wasn’t seriously injured, but he couldn’t confirm if it was true. He wanted to see for himself.
Feeling frustrated, Chris left the hospital. Since he was mostly unharmed except for a few bruises on his legs, he thought of taking a walk to get some fresh air.
In a small garden behind the hospital, a woman in a patient gown was sitting alone on a bench, looking at her phone. As he passed by without much thought, he vaguely heard a familiar song. Chris turned around and was surprised.
The woman he had been searching for was crying while looking at her phone.
Not knowing why she was crying, his heart tore apart. Chris unconsciously placed his hand on the woman’s shoulder.
“Hey… please don’t cry.”
The woman was startled and dropped her phone.
After being chased out of Sun-ah’s house, there was nowhere to go. Unknowingly, Chris found himself heading home by bus.
When he arrived home, the sun had already set.
“Ah…!”
As Eun-seo entered the yard, a sigh escaped from her lips.
Yesterday, she was so preoccupied with the collapsed roof that she hadn’t noticed, but now she saw the apple tree in the yard. Contrary to the winter season, the branches, which had been bare, were now lush with leaves, and tempting fruits were plentifully hanging.
Combined with the sunlight pouring through the tree, it was a scene like a fantasy.
Eun-seo was momentarily dazed.
Was it a miracle? If so, was it a heavenly sign that Eun-ho would return?
Then, Eun-seo suddenly remembered what the production team used to say when they visited.
[The tree in the middle of the yard is also suitable. It’s perfect for the song concept, but it’s a shame it looks awkward in winter.] [Oh, as long as the leaves are fake, what’s there to worry about?]Her strength drained away.
Approaching and examining it closely, indeed, all the leaves were made of plastic. The apples were real, but when she tried to pick one with a little force, it fell off easily. It was staged for the shoot.
“…A fake shaman.”
A sob finally escaped Eun-seo’s lips. It was the same sob she had held back when she saw the collapsed roof, or when she was chased out of her friend’s house.
“If the fruit opens, he’ll come back, right?”
Although the apple tree bore fruit, Eun-ho never returned. Even if he were to remember the house someday, there was no longer a home for him to come back to.
The only hope she had cherished for so long vanished so pitifully.
“……!”
Eun-seo squatted there, burying her face in her knees, and cried endlessly. There was nowhere to rely on or lean on in the entire world. Now, she didn’t even know how or for what purpose she should live.
Suddenly, she recalled the day when Seung-joo, who had lost her memory, first visited this house.
I wonder how you felt back then. In the middle of a vast desert, as if dropped alone without a map or compass, was it this kind of feeling? So, is that why you had such a desolate expression on your face?
At least, back then, you had a country to go to.
‘But no one for me……’
Once again, as tears overflowed and streamed down, someone grabbed her arm and lifted her up.
Surprised, she stopped crying and looked up, and right in front of her eyes stood the boy who had just been in her thoughts.
“…Let’s go.”
With the gaze of an adult.
Male lead is a Love-Obsessed Merman
When he discovers she has gone, he risks everything to pursue her on land, enduring agonizing pain to transform his tail into human legs…
One-line summary: Male lead chases female lead. The male lead’s love is a bit sick, an invincible love brain.
Synopsis
During a voyage at sea, Jiang Yang accidentally captures a merman.
Servant: I heard that mermen are fierce and brutal.
Jiang Yang looks at the merman obediently rubbing her palm like a puppy: “You call this fierce and brutal?”
Servant: I heard that mermen have no human nature.
Jiang Yang looks at the merman with wet puppy eyes, obsessively calling her ‘A Yang’ like a childish infant: “You call this having no human nature?”
With great difficulty, she releases the merman back into the sea and returns to shore.
Who would have thought that in less than half a month, the merman, who should have been freely wandering in the South China Sea, would shed his scales, endure the pain of losing his tail, transform into human legs, and come ashore to find her?
He kneels at her feet, rubbing her palm, with merman tears rolling down: “A Yang, don’t abandon me.”
