I can understand why YoungBae is acting all weird. I think he was just thinking of MiYoung at the moment.
I wonder where she is. She's been gone for 3 years and no one reported seeing her. Where could she be?
(YoungBae's POV)
Even seeing a glimpse of her would make my day. Sadly, some people are starting to assume she is dead because no one has seen her anywhere around the globe.
I still have hope that she walks this earth. I just have to find which part of this earth.
There are 3 places that I can think of. Taiwan, China or United States. Those were 3 places she always wanted to go to.
Now, I have a chance to check the United States. This is going to be interesting.
I get up from the table and go to my table. I need my dose of my first love.
I pulled out a thick black photo album and dust it off a bit. I sit on the bed and open to the first page.
It was a photo album of MiYoung and I. Most of them were of us together doing stuff we loved to do. Some of them were just of one of us. Mostly MiYoung since she liked to pose.
When I'm halfway through the album, the door opens and Yumi walks in.
YuMi: "Appa, what are you looking at?"
YoungBae: "Old pictures."
I gestured her to come over. She sat down on the bed next to me and looks at the photo album.
YuMi: "Is that uhmma?"
I nod and turn the page. MiYoung was just so animated in every picture. Some of them were when she wasn't expecting it or not paying attention.
I flip through it more and YuMi watches more intensely than ever.
YuMi: "Am I ever going to meet her?"
YoungBae: "I hope so. She was an amazing woman."
(YuMi's POV)
I know she's amazing. I can't let my father know that I'm going to see her. I'll let him find out himself.
Now I feel bad because I know how much he misses her. I sometimes see him crying himself to sleep. He would even mumble her name.
YuMi: "Appa?"
He turns his head toward me.
YuMi: "Have you ever heard of Elizabeth Kwon?"
He shakes his head.
YoungBae: "Does she have any meaning to me?"
YuMi: "Somewhat. You'll find out soon. It's hard to explain."
He nods and goes back to the photo album. Elizabeth hasn't aged much since when she was in her 20's. I knew she didn't have any surgery or botox done. It was just the way her face was.
YoungBae: "Where will we be staying when we get there?"
I forgot to ask her. She told me that she owned the top two floors of the best apartment building in Manhattan so I think she has room for all of us.
YuMi: "At her place."
YoungBae: "Where are we going to meet her?"
YuMi: "At her office. She has a really nice office. White and lime green."
YoungBae: "How would you know what it looks like?"
YuMi: "She made a video and sent it to me. I put it on a cd but it's under a lot of other stuff."
Truthfully, I knew exactly where it was but Elizabeth was in the video so he might recognize her.
He nods as he starts getting near the end of the photo album. He flipped to the next page and it was full of pictures of me when I was born. A few pictures had my twin brother. I saw a few tears run down my father's cheeks as he looked at the pictures.
YuMi: "Appa? Are you okay?"
I brushed the tears away but more tears fell. I pat him on the back.
YuMi: "Just let it out."
He picked up the pillow and put it to his face. For once, I feel like the parent and my father is the child.
He removed the pillow from his face and leaned against the headboard.
YuMi: "Feel better?"
He nods and closes his eyes.
(YoungBae's POV)
I never knew that I had pictures of my son. I wonder how they got there.
I leaned forward again and turned the page. There was a picture of my son awake. He had two different colored irises. I can't believe I messed up this badly. If I didn't have a plan, MiYoung and TaeKyung would still be here. Why did I have to be so stupid?
I feel like banging my head against the wall but YuMi would try stopping me.
