Mijeong just cried without saying anything . I said hello to Mijeong, who

was sobbing with her head down, and left the place . She couldn't even lo

ok at me leaving and just cried . On the train to Punggi, the sight of Mijeo
ng was so pitiful that I had to keep crying .

When I saw her, I decided that I should confess my love to my child .
As soon as I entered the house, I said hello to my mother and went outsi

de to meet the child . Just as I was about to leave, I heard my mother's v

oice behind me .

“ The owner’s daughter is getting married .”
My mother said these words to me without thinking ,

At that moment, I felt all the strength in my body disappear .

The field before my eyes suddenly became dark . What should I do ?
As I was leaving home, I met that child's younger sister, Myeong-hee .

Through Myunghee's words, I was able to confirm that my mother's wor

ds were true . She is marrying a man who graduated from Chung-Ang U
niversity and lives in Yeongju . I didn't have the courage to meet that chil

d . I walked and walked aimlessly all night long, on the road to the village

, under bridges , and to unknown places . No matter how much I thought ,
there was no answer , I just felt frustrated .

' The only thing that allowed me to persevere and persevere in the midst

of so many difficulties was my love for that child ... .'

I ended up staying up all night squatting in front of that child's house .

The heartbreaking memory of that day , when I cried inside while hiding

in the shadow of the child going to the bathroom in the early morning, re
mains a bitter memory that cannot be erased even after decades .

That day, I ended up not having the courage to meet that child, so I retur

ned to the base . Even after returning from vacation, I saw myself strugg
ling so much ...

A colleague asked me, “ Did you wear your rubber shoes backwards ?”
QR
He went so far as to ask . But his question did not apply to my case .
