All My Heart's
Episode 22
“Aaaarrgghh!”
PRANGS!
The cry of Jin Ho followed by the sound of broken glass from the bathroom of his apartment. Meanwhile, Jun Su's apartment located next to him certainly made him able to clearly hear the noise.
Jun Su's calm that night was instantly disturbed and she suddenly moved out of the room. He ran frantically into Jin Ho's apartment after pressing the door code and opening the bathroom door.
“HEY! WHAT ARE YOU SELLING... RIGHT?”
Jun Su's irritated shout spontaneously weakened after seeing the cracked bathroom glass filled with blood and Jin Ho's fist that looked bruised and covered in blood. His brain as if it was not working, he just looked blankly at Jin Ho who passed through it without the slightest sound.
“He, hey? A, are you okay?”
Shut up, there is no intention of Jin Ho to answer the question of his little friend who is irrigating his steps into the living room until he enters the room and…
BRACKET!
Jun Su's steps came to a halt as the door of the room closed tightly and there was a knob on the key from inside. He blinked and gulped. Seemed dazed for a moment before he finally tapped quietly on Jin Ho's room hesitantly.
“Jin, Jin Ho, are you okay?”
“Go home. I want to be alone first now,” said Jin Ho flat.
“Ba, okay. But...are you sure you're okay?”
There was no longer any answer from within and finally, Jun Su decided to leave to give his best friend some quiet space. While in his room, Jin Ho is seen holding his wrist and enduring the pain he has just felt.
“Why?” jin Ho asked himself, “WHY?!” he shouted while scattering things.
And at the same time, the ringtone of one of his phones rang loudly. He rushed to reach into his pants pocket and saw the name “No Hye Mi” clearly on his screen, Jin Ho's anger seemed to re-peak. He quickly stepped onto the balcony and threw his cell phone.
Calm down, and only Jin Ho's tired breath could be heard. His legs trembled, his entire body was squeezed before then, he slumped and leaned against the balcony railing with both knees bent. He went back to silence until a small sobbing was heard after he buried his face to his knees and without realizing it, the name that had been slightly lost from his memory was again spoken.
“In, In Hyeong, I miss you so much. It's so painful. I'm sorry.”
Back recorded his memory of In Hyeong who sincerely wanted to wipe away his tears of annoyance. In Hyeong's smile was always there for her and the happy laughter that could always make her smile.
The figure of a girl who only always asks for attention from him. The girl who never lies will be the other guy by her side and all her happy and sad just aimed at her, Joon Jin Ho.

“Aren't you, Joon Jin Ho?”
Jin Ho's forehead momentarily frowned when he saw the figure of a woman in her 40s but, only a few seconds until he was able to recognize the woman and stop his activities choosing goods. He bowed respectfully for a moment before looking back at the woman.
“Halo, Mrs Park Hye Rin,” greet Jin Ho friendly.
“Iya, hello. Long time no see, Mr Joon Jin Ho?”
“Until this second I still feel very good.”
For a moment he was silent as they walked back down the supermarket at that time.
“Mm... sorry, Mrs Park, may I ask you something?”
“Iya, sure. Please just.”
“Begini, yesterday I heard from someone that you need 10 million won to have surgery because of heart complications. Is that true?”
Hearing the question, Hye Rin stopped her steps and looked at Jin Ho who seemed uncomfortable.
“Oh, sorry. I didn't mean to offend you. Maybe yesterday I just misheard. I'm sorry,” Jin Ho said quickly.
“I don't want to answer. But, the statement from that person offended me a little. I feel very healthy, how dare he say such a bad thing,” said Hye Rin trying to calm down.
For a moment Jin Ho stared at the cynical Hye Rin who had turned her face away. Her brain recalls Hye Mi's words about her mother for its own sake and now, she can clearly see the anger of Park Hye Rin's figure who is none other than No Hye Mi's mother.
“Mm... Mrs Hye Rin, forget my words. Maybe I just misheard. Sorry to offend you and may you always be healthy. Excuse me, there's something I need to take care of.”
After bowing for a moment, Jin Ho also stepped quickly to leave Hye Rin who clearly still holds the frustration and does not ignore his speech and departure.
“Aaarrrgghh.
Jin Ho's shout sounded almost filled the parking lot after he got into the car. For a moment he was silent and hit the steering wheel hard enough before finally, starter the car violently and drive home.

Even eleven months Jin Ho did not contact In Hyeong. The final trial has been completed by In Hyeong well and just wait for the graduation seconds. And that day, he stepped into the art room, walking through every musical instrument contained in it. A second later, his steps came to a halt behind a piano.
“Joon Jin Ho,” whispered.
Pressed by one of the keys until it sounded a short twinkling Do tone and calm, he was swept away in an empty daydream. Till…
“Kakak?” reprimand Eun Hee who immediately patted In Hyeong's arm.
“Oh, Eun Hee,” says In Hyeong jerks.
“What's up? You seem to be thinking of something?”
“It's okay,” said In Hyeong while sitting behind the piano.
For a moment In Hyeong stared blankly at the piano in front of him and with a carefree feeling, Eun Hee sat by his side and made him flinch again before finally, they played the piano together. And for every twinkling now heard in his ear, the shadow re-entered the memory. The shadow of longing for a named figure…
Joon Jin - Ho.
