All My Heart's
Last Episode
Congratulations on your marriage to Jin Ho. Sorry, I couldn't attend yesterday. Thank you for inviting me. Today, my last day to see Haeundae Beach. Tomorrow my plane will leave at 9:00 am for Canada…
The message was recorded perfectly in In Hyeong's brain after her one-day marriage to Jin Ho.
“Can't you go a little faster? Yon Bin's plane is leaving at 9:00!” namel In Hyeong.
“I've tried but, don't you see now it's jammed?” sahut Jin Ho who looked so clear.
“You take care of the car, I'll run from here,” said In Hyeong quickly, “ I love you,” and a gentle kiss landed on Jin Ho's cheek before he actually got off.
“Hei, but..”
Without wanting to wait any longer, In Hyeong rushed to run away leaving Jin Ho who wanted to prevent him in the middle of the traffic jam. And Yon Bin, who has not been seen by them for a long time, will fly today to Canada to continue his education.
“Jang Yon Bin!”
In Hyeong shouted when he saw Yon Bin who was about to step into the waiting room. Yon Bin who changed so much turned around and smiled to find In Hyeong who ran towards him.
“You shouldn't have come, right?” ask Yon Bin softly.
And in the end, In Hyeong just leaned over while resting on her two squeezed knees. In Hyeong's breathing sounded irregular to the point of making Yon Bin smile and take out a bottle of mineral water from inside his backpack.
“Drink this.”
With one gulp he drank half a bottle of water after straightening his body.
“You still haven't changed,” said Yon Bin.
“Jang Yon Bin!”
It looks like Jin Ho ran towards them and made Yon Bin lukewarm his carefree smile.
“You will just run away after a long time we did not meet,” scold Jin Ho after standing between them.
“I'm sorry. I still feel less pan..”
Yon Bin's sentence was interrupted when Jin Ho suddenly hugged him very tightly.
“Sister, I love you,” whispered Jin Ho, “I should apologize for leaving you alone for eight years,” he added sincerely.
“You've got your happiness after seven years of fighting. Pray for me to be like you,” said Yon Bin as he patted his back.
While taking off his embrace, Jin Ho smiled meaningfully.
“Send my regards to Jun Su, Yong Hwa and Yong Hae. Because I don't know when we'll get together again,” said Yon Bin softly.
“Are you not coming back?” in Hyeong asked in a hoarse voice.
Soon the two looked at each other when they saw In Hyeong shed tears and seemed to understand the whole gaze of his best friend, Yon Bin stepped closer before then hugging the girl who had given him so much experience of life.
“Don't cry me. You promised you'd always smile, right? I don't want to see your tears anymore. It's time, I'm sure we'll regroup. Be happy with Jin Ho who will now always protect and love you. I promise to keep calling you as long as I'm there,” whispered Yon Bin as he gently rubbed In Hyeong's head.
And along with the flight call to Canada, Yon Bin took off his embrace.
“I have to go. See you.”
After Yon Bin stepped into the waiting room, Jin Ho approached and embraced In Hyeong who did not take his eyes off him at all.
“Will he be back?” in Hyeong asked when Yon Bin was no longer in sight.
“He's definitely back,” Jin Ho said gently, “we're home,” he added.
-----------
“I told you that we're going to have a meeting at Haeundae Beach. But, you insist on going to Purple Cafe!” namel In Hyeong.
“Uncle Yong Hwa.”
“Joon Seok Jin, don't run!” yell Jin Ho.
Joon Seok Jin, a four-year-old boy, is none other than Jin Ho and In Hyeong. He seemed to be unconcerned about his father's screams and kept running towards Yong Hwa who was already preparing to hug him.
“Smart boy, you miss me?” yong Hwa asked after holding Seok Jin.
Seok Jin nodded, then floated a kiss on Yong Hwa's left cheek.
“He really showed that he likes Yong Hwa better than you,” Jin Ho said as he glanced at Yong Hae who had also joined them.
“He's exactly like you,” says Yong Hae ketus.
“Uncle Yong Hae also wants to be given a kiss by Seok Jin,” In Hyeong said as he looked at Seok Jin.
Without saying a single word, Seok Jin quickly floated his kiss on the right cheek of Yong Hae who was standing not far from where Yong Hwa was holding him.
“I also love Uncle Yong Hae,” said Seok Jin with his innocent face.
“I know,” said Yong Hae while gently rubbing Seok Jin's head.
“Sorry, I'm late.”
And suddenly the figure of a Kim Jun Su was present in such a mess.
“Why are you wearing sportswear here?” jin Ho asked representing their curiosity.
“I forgot today we will have a reunion. I was going home to change clothes but, by accident, my bike was grinding the tail of a neighbor's dog. The dog chased after me mercilessly, I could not return because he was waiting for me in front of the house,” Jun Su explained with a stupefied breath.
“No wonder, you always do the same thing every time you finish exercising. He remembers you very well,” Yong Hwa said in a mocking tone.
Without the slightest care for his ridicule, Jun Su instantly threw himself onto the sand.
“You guys have gathered here?”
Jun Su instantly woke up and looked at the voice, as Jin Ho, Yong Hwa, Yong Hae, Seok Jin and In Hyeong turned their eyes. The figure of Yon Bin walked towards them.
“What's up? You guys are like seeing ghosts,” said Yon Bin astonished.
Without being able to say anything, In Hyeong stepped forward hugging Yon Bin who immediately looked very surprised.
“How long has it been back? Do you know that I've missed you so much over the past five years?” namel In Hyeong sobbed.
A smile was engraved on Yon Bin's face and then took off his embrace.
“I have to finish all my studies well. Sorry, I made you wait,” said Yon Bin softly.
“Dad, why did Mom hug him? She who? She made my mom cry.”
Seok Jin cried because he thought Yon Bin had done evil to In Hyeong and quickly Jin Ho took over.
“He's your son?” ask Yon Bin.
In Hyeong nodded slowly while wiping away her tears and turned to calm Seok Jin.
“Joon Seok Jin, Mom doesn't cry because Uncle Yon Bin is evil. Mom is crying because Mom is happy to see her again,” said In Hyeong softly.
Instantly Seok Jin's cries stopped, he turned his back to look at In Hyeong who was smiling at him.
“Who is he?” ask Seok Jin.
“That's Jang Yon Bin, your Uncle too. Greet her,” said In Hyeong lovingly.
With doubtful feelings after being taken down from the sling of the Father, Seok Jin still stepped over to Yon Bin who was crouching to greet him. Seok Jin gave a soft kiss on Yon Bin's right cheek which made him astonished and immediately saw Jin Ho.
“I think the way he gives greetings is a little different to me,” Jin Ho said flatly, “In Hyeong's habit of hugging you guys goes downhill on him. Although a little more special with the kiss,” he added that immediately makes laughter.
“Seok Jin, follow me looking for shells,” invite Jun Su accompanied by a quick nod from Seok Jin, “chase me, who was left short-bodied,” shouted later.
Soon Seok Jin rushed after Jun Su accompanied by In Hyeong, Yong Hwa and Yong Hae.
“Seok Jin watch your step!” yell Jin Ho.
“You're really lucky this time,” reprimand Yon Bin.
Jin Ho just smiled as he looked at the crowded sea of Haeundae Beach with Yon Bin who was standing next to him.
“So, when are you getting married?” ask Jin Ho.
“Entahlah. I have not found the right girl,” said Yon Bin.
“Don't lie to me. The Canadian girl you told me about last month looks pretty sexy,” seductress Jin Ho.
“Haha..you never change,” said Yon Bin.
“If I change, I won't marry In Hyeong. You can imagine her sexy curves are driving me almost crazy,” Jin Ho said casually.
Hearing his best friend's flat chatter with a cold expression that never changed, immediately made Yon Bin push him slowly while holding his shame and laughter while, Jin Ho just smiled cynically.
“This is yours,” Jin Ho said as he handed over a small box he removed from his pants pocket.
Yon Bin's forehead frowned for a moment before finally opening the box that turned out to contain a ring that he was familiar with.
“You returned it when In Hyeong was in the hospital. Afterwards, In Hyeong buries it in order to remove you from memory. But, I kept it without In Hyeong's knowledge. Because in the end, he still can't let you out of his arms.”
“Jin Ho, Yon Bin, get here fast!” yong Hae shouted while waving his hands.
“Save the ring, because however you remain part of this story,” Jin Ho said as he patted Yon Bin on the shoulder.
Slowly tears flowed down the cheeks of Yon Bin who was glued to his place.
“Jin Ho has returned your ring,” reprimand In Hyeong.
Spontaneous Yon Bin looked towards In Hyeong who was already standing before him and smiled gently while wiping away her tears.
“You are still my brother, don't go again,” In Hyeong said sincerely.
A warm embrace that had not been felt for a long time by Jang Yon Bin, now given again by In Hyeong lovingly.
The beginning of February was adorned with a golden orange glow from the sun's slowly descending bias, leaving behind all the warmth he had given me all day, Jin Ho, Yon Bin, Jun Su, and Jun Su, Yong Hwa and Yong Hae. In this place all our love, love, tears, laughter, and happiness are back in a bond of friendship that will never be erased by time.
And Haeundae Beach bears witness to all the affection I have for someone who has always looked after me with his whole life…
“I love you too, Joon Jin Ho”
