At the hospital, Hana was beginning to wake up. Jiwoon, who was sitting next to her, rushed forward to attend to the girl. Hana's eyes fluttered open and she seemed confused about the unfamiliar surroundings.
"D-Dad…" she mumbled.
"Hana!" Jiwoon gently called her. "Are you okay? Do you need something?"
Hana glanced at her and was trying to recognize Jiwoon but her mind was completely muddled. She was trying to speak but her voice was hoarse and broken.
"Dad…dy…" She mumbled. "Where…"
Jiwoon bit her lip. She did not know how to remind the child that her father was dead. Hana was scared and confused by what was going on. How was she going to deal with this blow?
"Hana dear, your uncle will come back soon," Jiwoon told her. "Your dad…your dad is with him. He will come and see you soon."
