The memories forgotten by Lee Hyun finally appeared again, as he leaned on the trunk of that tree at the back of the old building.
No, he was no longer Lee Hyun. He understood now. When he lived his life as Lee Hyun, there was always a sense of longing, of loss, and of sadness that gnawed in his heart.
He has no recollection of what happened, and only heard the story of his parents' death and the accident from the mouth of his relatives. They said he was lucky, surviving, but something inside him changed that day—something profound and terrifying, something that no one could comprehend.
At first, his family chalked it up to trauma. It was understandable; any child who lost their parents so young would be rattled, and Lee Hyun was no exception. But what happened after the accident was far more than mere emotional distress.
