The Accidental Couple
Ji Soo...
Yes?
W... Won't... I do?
The tears overflow
as I look up to the blue sky
I lived to this day without knowing how blue the sky is
I've also developed feelings for you, Ji Soo.
I love you, until my very last day
Ah... Dong Baek... uh... that is...
I thank the heavens for letting me meet you
the feelings that I meant were like as a good friend,
or... just warm, friendly feelings.
I love you, until my very last day
I thank the heavens for allowing me to be with you.
I'll be right back after a drink of water.
Episode 13
I just ran out barefoot.
Min Ji had some roasted corn tea ready.
It's nutty and delicious.
Are you very uncomfortable because of what I said?
Oh, no. I'm not uncomfortable.
Because I know what a good person you are.
But... you know very well that I'm waiting for Kang Mo.
Yes.
Uh... what should I say so you'd understand me?
Umm, you know that I became an actress because my mother fell ill, don't you?
Yes.
Um... it was more difficult than I thought.
It was really hard.
How can I describe what it was like... should I say it was like
I was being chased to the edge of a cliff each day?
But the person that put out his hand for me to hold so I wouldn't fall was Kang Mo.
He was easy and comforting, and he gave me the assurance that he wouldn't let me fall.
But Ji Soo...
Yes?
Don't you think... being afraid to fall is what makes it the edge of a cliff?
We dived off of a cliff in Guam, don't you remember?
If you think ‘It's okay if I fall', then it's no longer the scary edge of a cliff
but it could become a diving board.
And below is a cool, refreshing ocean.
What does that mean?
Oh, just go on in.
What're you doing standing outside the door like that?
Oh, oppa! Unni!
Uh? You have my clothes on?!
Yes, Min Ji.
Omona, did I just ruin a moment here?
Oh, no.
Hey, is that why you were standing outside?
Unni, should we leave again?
Oh right, oppa. Just continue what you were doing.
Min Ji...
Dong Baek, I'd like to see you a minute.
Omona. I... what... the mood here is...
Why would you meet with Goo Dong Baek, father?!
Because you can't make it happen, I have to.
How much longer are you going to drag this out and
how many more mistakes will you make?
This was your mistake this time.
It's a mistake that I met with that man?
Yes.
Then who should I meet so that it's not a mistake?
Is it Han Ji Soo?
I'm going to be the one to tell Ji Soo.
When?!
After Soo Yun finds out all about it?
I'm asking you... don't call or go near Ji Soo.
Fine. Then how many days should I give you?
It won't take too long.
In return for this time I'm giving you, if you cannot convince her,
you will end it once and for all.
That will be my understanding.
~ Now you have no more reason to see Ji Soo. Goo Dong Baek. ~
~ Kim Kang Mo. ~
Kang Mo... why on this phone...?
Now?
Why were you crying?
Huh?
I saw you. Crying.
Who said I was crying?
Don't try to blow this off.
Even Kim Kang Mo came by.
To our house?
If I didn't stop him, he would have gone into the house, that bastard.
Really?
What's going on?
What's causing him to look for my sister that frantically?
Uh, Sang Chul, that is...
You're not going to tell me?
Should we go back in the house?
Should we do this in front of Min Ji?
I... went to see Kim Kang Mo.
Why?
I went and told him I cared for Ji Soo.
Are you crazy?
Why would you go and say something like that to him?
Because I like Ji Soo.
So you go and tell him?
You think that bastard can hear something like that and sit still?
I don't want to hide my feelings for Ji Soo anymore.
I'm going to say it bravely and I'm going to love her bravely.
Oh, without even a plan...! How frustrating. Oh, you frustrating person!
Didn't Goo Dong Baek say anything?
Huh? Oh... why?
Goo Dong Baek came to see me at my office.
Dong Baek did?
He kind of took me off guard. He came and told me he cared for you.
He said it just happened as you spend time together.
Oh, did he say that?
Did noona go somewhere?
She was on the phone and then she left.
Where? Who was she talking to?
How would I know that, no matter how close I am to her?
Where could she have gone, making us worry?
Hey, give me a glass of water.
But her phone was broken...
After your final shoot, let's go to Guam.
Guam?
We'll go there and relax a little bit then,
let's go to Canada and shoot the movie we talked about.
I'll take care of all the finances.
After some time there together,
how about going directly from there to Canada with Yun Kyung to prep for the shooting.
Straight from there?
And the matter of the divorce from Goo Dong Baek, I'll take care of it.
The divorce papers from him? Bring those to me.
Kang Mo, I can't make this decision so suddenly.
Let me discuss this with Goo Dong Baek.
And then if he confesses his love for you...
won't that make things awkward for the both of you?
Huh... why did Goo Dong Baek suddenly...
Daddy told me to take the golf clubs to you, so I'm on my way there.
Just do as I say, Ji Soo. You know I'm here for you.
There's nothing to worry about.
Okay?
Okay.
I'm sure he didn't say anything...
he didn't say anything.
The two of you spending time together, I think it's becoming a little risky.
Maybe I should have retrieved these from your father,
I could have offered my greetings.
He said you were busy so I should bring them to you.
You... must have had company?
Uh, a friend.
Ji Soo, is there something wrong?
Goo Dong Baek went to see Kang Mo and told him he cared for me.
What?
So that must be what's wrong with me.
It'll be hard now for me to spend time with Goo Dong Baek.
There were still 2 months left but the fact that it's over so suddenly, is making me cry.
But to cry is overreacting a little, isn't it?
You... you must have fallen for Goo Dong Baek.
Unni!
It looked like that. When you were with him, you looked happy.
Did I look happy?
Uh huh. You looked really happy. And you laughed a lot.
You're right. I think I laughed a lot whenever I was with him.
I received so much from him but now...
I don't have much time to give back to him.
Why does it feel so dead?
I wonder why Ji Soo likes this bitter fruit so much?
Because it tastes good.
Oh, Ji Soo!
Here, give me that.
Oh, yes.
Did anything happen?
Ah, nothing must have happened.
Oh, so you have to peel them individually.
I thought you can eat it just like a tangerine.
You can eat it like that.
But it tastes much better if you peel it like this.
There. Try this.
Okay.
Oh, it's really good. The pulps breaking up... it's really good.
It's good?
Yes.
Then I'll peel more. Have some more.
No, your fingers must smart. I can do it myself.
But I want to do it for you.
Yes.
Aigoo... Ji Soo.
I was just wondering if there was anything you needed.
Here I am, the owner of the house and I don't think I was very thoughtful.
Oh...
But... that laundry line...!
Aigoo! I'm sorry about that.
I should have gotten permission before putting them up.
Looks a bit messy, doesn't it?
You can dry your laundry on the terrace.
With the warm weather, it can make it humid in here.
Oh, no, it's fine.
Ji Soo, is there something else you need...
Ah. Is it okay if I just look around?
This room is a part of my house.
Oh, oh. It's fine.
Oh, you like these types of books.
Hmmm.
I met with Kang Mo earlier today.
I heard that you told him that you cared for me.
What? Oh, yes, yes.
Why are you being like this all of a sudden?
With what you said to me earlier and all...
Do you know what this is?
‘Half Flower'.
Yes.
These are the flowers that we held while having our pictures taken in Guam.
I threw those flowers away.
No. I retrieved them.
The tears overflow
Because it felt like I was being thrown away.
as I look up to the blue sky
lived to this day without knowing how blue the sky is
What I feel in my heart... isn't really ‘all of a sudden‘'.
I love you, to my very last day
Oh.
I thank the heavens for allowing me to be with you.
Dong Baek, good night.
Come on in.
Are the rehearsals going well for the performance?
Yes, things are going well.
Why is the Team Leader answering?
Shouldn't the front man, Goo Dong Baek, be answering?
Uh...uh.
Yes, we're doing well with the preparations.
So... have you decided... on which song you will sing?
That hasn't been finalized...
Oh, really? Oh, that's good.
See here, I happened to really like the song from ‘Besame Muzzo',
how would it be if you sang that?
‘Besame Muzzo'?
Why, don't you know it? You know...
Mmm.. hmm... la-la-la-la.. ‘Besame Muzzo....'!
Wow. This song brings up memories of my past.
What? Are there memories of a first love hidden in that song?
Of course there are.
There was a student from Seoul Girls High School who was in private study group with me.
Hah! Oh my...
Her face was so pretty.
Whenever I sang this song, her face turned as red as Goo Dong Baek's here.
So, you neglected your studies to chase after a girl?
Oh, no. We were innocent. We just studied together.
Right....
No, it's true. We just burned in our hearts only.
Never had a chance to say I liked her...
Right. Talking about it makes the memories come back.
Uh... that is... Pil Soon.
Hrmmph.
Pil Soon?
The name's kind of countryish, eh?
No. I'm used to it as my mother's name is Pil Soon also.
Oh, your mother's name is Pil Soon.
Yes, Yang Pil Soon.
Hmm? Yang Pil Soon?
Oh? My mother attended Seoul Girls' High School.
What?
As.. you .. live.. your.. life..
There is someone here to see you saying he is Kang Mo's senior to see you.
Oh, is that so?
Hello. How are you?
Ah, yes.
It's your birthday in a few days and
Kang Mo couldn't make it so I'm here in his stead.
Oh... oh. Thank you.
Please have a seat there.
Oh, yes.
Kang Mo must be really busy.
Yes. Because of his father's campaign, he's crazy busy.
Oh, I see. That's why he couldn't come that day.
I know Ji Soo well because we were all students together.
Oh, is that so?
The two are such a good match, aren't they going to marry?
They've been dating for what... 7 years now?
Yes.
Because Ji Soo wanted to become an actress, he's waited a long time.
But, they'll soon be getting married.
Ah, is that right?
This is recently the most popular model.
- Oh, really? Is this the most expensive one? - Yes.
- Then I'll take this. - I understand.
Okay.
Huh!?
I said I'll buy. Just have a bowl.
Is there a reason for me to eat and get indigestion?
Aigoo... there's nothing more we need to talk about,
and even if we talked, it'd be recorded anyway so...
I don't have a recorder on me.
Check me. If you find one on me, you can smack me.
Really.
If I find one, I really will smack you.
Oh, brother. You must have been deceived all your life.
Oh, that tickles.
That really does tickle.
Even Reporter Baek knows how to laugh.
I'm a human being, of course I laugh.
You were a human being?
Since you trailed me so, I thought you were the Terminator.
The Terminator's muscles are like these, you fool.
Look, see if I have any muscles.
Hmmph. It's not even funny.
Hurry up and eat so we can get out of here.
When Kim Jung Wook was a judge, he ruled on a hospital case to place
the blame entirely on my brother who was the doctor, by offering a bribe.
The one that is strong to the weak and weak to the strong,
that person should never have power.
Because he'll use that power inappropriately.
Somehow, you and I met under unfortunate circumstances but perhaps
life will allow us to meet under better circumstances, don't you think?
You're behaving a bit strangely today. Why are you saying such things to me?
Because I feel apologetic... toward you.
Ooh boy. Why is that man saying he feels apologetic to me?
It makes me nervous for no reason.
Oh well.
The square sky.
Wow... it's that square sky that I like.
Whenever you see it, it makes you feel better.
Look at it often and smile often.
This is really tacky. I came here to tell you that.
Oh, I could've picked the lamb instead of the turtle.
I guess I should've picked the lamb.
A turtle is kind of tacky, isn't it?
It's not because it's a turtle but because it's yellow gold.
Oh, is that so?
I thought yellow gold was the best...
You can get a good deal if you sell it later.
I'm like that.
Yes!
Ah, yes.
This is my last day of shooting for the movie.
Would you like to go with me?
To the shoot? Oh, why would I go there?
I've been to the Post Office many times but you've never been to my work.
In place of unni, why don't you be my day Manager?
Manager? Yes, yes.
Hello, how are you?
How are you?
Hello.
Oh, your husband came with you today.
Good, good.
Hello, how are you?
This is that chair.
Wow, this is the chair that's exclusively for you,
that you bragged so much about?
Yes.
Han Ji Soo. Wow.
Why don't you sit in it?
Me?
I sat in your chair at the Post Office.
Yes, you did. Okay, then I'll have a seat.
What an honor this is for me.
Oh, and when the sun is out, then... ta-da!
Wow!
Ji Soo. I heard you brought your husband.
Yes. ...this is the director.
Oh, yes!
Hello, how are you, how are you? I am Goo Dong Baek.
Oh, you must have come with her because it's the last day of the shoot.
Yes.
Oh. Since you're here, how about if we put you in as an extra?
Oh, no, no. I don't know how to act.
I know. That's why I said an ‘extra'.
Give it a try. It'll be fun.
Even you, Ji Soo?
They'll be good memories... to last forever.
Scene 123, take 1!!
Action!
D..d..don't look at the camera...! ...Please.
Oh, okay. I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
I'm very sorry.
Ji Soo, I'm sorry.
Scene 123, take 2!
Action!
Scene 123, take 3!
Action!
Eeek!
I'm sorry-y-y...
Shit.
Take the dog out!
Scene 123, take 4!
Action!
Camera cut.
Oh, I'm sorry.
Ji Soo. Why are you laughing? That caused a blooper.
Oh, the way you're walking, your posture, is so funny.
I'm very sorry.
You should try and focus...
Put the dog back in.
Put the dog back in!
Hello, Han Ji Soo.
You came to our exhibit but I didn't have a chance to offer my greetings then.
Thank you.
I heard this was the final shoot.
Yes.
Then when will the premiere be?
I think it'll be in about 3 months.
In 3 months?
Then, that'll be after Kang Mo and I get married.
You're getting married?
Yes.
I accepted his proposal.
Ah.
I try and smile
I'll send you an invitation.
I hope you and your husband attend.
Though I'm in pain, I smile
I open my heart to you again
Yes.
when the tears fall for no reason
Congratulations on your marriage.
I make myself believe they're tears of happiness.
Han Ji Soo, we're ready for the final scene.
I close my eyes
Okay.
I try and bring your face to mind.
I open my heart to you again
the road back to you is so rough
Ji Soo...
and my feet, full of thorns, hurt with each step I take
But I am one step closer to you today than yesterday.
I'm sorry. I'm so sorry.
For so long, blinded by a petty love, I couldn't see the greater love.
Please don't go.
Because I'm going to love you now.
You relieve, you relieve my deepest pain,
because you're the only one that can heal that pain.
That's a wrap! Okay!
I believe, I believe in you, my love
Even if you were hurting, you still smiled at me.
I believe, I believe in you, the breath of my life.
I believe in you, my last love.
I'll ... I'll start for home.
Strange that I can't seem to get this right today.
I should do at least 10 pieces in 10 seconds.
The last time, I think I did 15 pieces.
Right, Dong Baek?
The stamp...
I think I did so well the last time.
Stop.
Let go. I'm going to stamp them all. Everyone here.
Ji Soo.
Ji Soo!
Life doesn't hold only bad things!!
And not only sad things either.
No, it's not okay.
You must smile.
Smiling is the only way.
You knew everything?
Life doesn't hold only sad things, Ji Soo.
Is that why you went to see Kang Mo?
Then why didn't you tell me?
I thought you said you cared for me.
You should have said to me,
‘The man you're waiting for, Kim Kang Mo, is marrying someone else.'
‘Now there's no one to hold your hand.'
Wasn't it a chance for you, Dong Baek?
Don't you even know things like that?
It could have been a chance for me, but for you it was pain.
You're saying you worry more about my pain than yourself?
Is that why you wanted me to smile that day?
That no matter what happens, for me to just smile?
I'm fine. I can find my way by myself.
You're just getting home?
Ji Soo!
Kang Mo is marrying Soo Yeon.
What?
What is she talking about?
Kim Kang Mo's fiancée came to see Ji Soo at the shoot today.
She must have told Ji Soo then.
No way! How... how could Kang Mo...?
I'm afraid Ji Soo will disappear again. I'm really worried about that.
I'm going to see Kang Mo. Look after Ji Soo.
Ji Soo.
Ji Soo, I'll be right outside your door.
If you need anything, call me.
I must have been 10.
I needed to see my dad so I went to your house for the first time.
It was your birthday that day.
My dad said I couldn't but you took me inside.
When I went in to your house, all your friends were there,
every one dressed up like a doll.
I was feeling really humiliated.
But do you know what you did then?
You said we should play a game, divided into a blue team and a white team.
You called for 4 blue t-shirts and 4 white t-shirts.
You made everyone put on those t-shirts, all to look alike.
You sensed what was making me uncomfortable.
That's the way you once were, you bastard.
I believed that you would be different from your father.
But I guess that couldn't be helped.
Yun Kyung...
So, you're getting married?
Please listen to me.
Why? Are you going to blame this on your father?
Don't make me laugh!
You've come this far on the decisions you have made.
Why not just live like your father!
Isn't that being more honest?
Don't think about trying to see Ji Soo again.
Yun Kyung.
You let her hear it from your fiancée?
One more day,
let's just make it through one more day.
Like a fool, why do I keep living like this?
Time seems to always
flow to where you were.
When I take my last breath,
will I then have peace?
I knew only you,
I saw only you.
I keep fearing that you will
forget all about me.
Ji Soo.
Ji Soo!
Ji Soo.
Weren't you standing guard because you thought I would disappear?
Then how can you doze off like that?
Just staring at the floor made me...
I made soybean stew. Please have a seat.
I put in plenty of soybean paste and onion.
I minced it finely so we can mix it into our rice.
Yes.
And the seasoned pickles aren't bitter because I didn't forget the sesame oil this time.
Yes.
I learned well from you, didn't I?
Yes.
You tell me
Why aren't you eating?
that I am a foolish,
I'm sorry?
too weak hearted a person,
I heard this from someone...
and helpless in love.
don't be alarmed, okay?
People...
Because I'm foolish,
if they don't eat, they die.
you're all that I know
Just because of you,
Yes, yes.
I have become a naive
and foolish person.
Because I love you too much,
Thank you, Ji Soo.
there are things I couldn't say
You don't know,
Why did you use your second wish on me?
In my head,
there are only thoughts of you.
I told you to use them for yourself.
I am foolish.
This is really good, isn't it?
It's the best.
I ended up making so much.
It's too bad that it's just the two of us enjoying this, isn't it?
Should we throw a party?
We'll call the people, call everyone, and eat together?
Yes.
I came to ask you to play with me but you're going on a delivery?
I'm going on a delivery to unni's house.
Our house? But why so much?
They're throwing a party. I think there's about 15 people coming.
Party?
Soybean ‘Par-Ree'!
Let's go.
A party, in this situation?
Welcome Postmaster.
Hello, how are you?
Oh, that wonderful aroma of soybean stew.
Ah, it smells really good.
This is the smell of people living.
Oh, Postmaster, you're here.
Why don't you hurry in to the meal?
Han Ji Soo's stew is truly a work of art.
Ah, is it that good?
Such high expectations.
Postmaster, you've come?
Mm hmm. Sit, sit.
We only have seasoned pickles as a side.
That's the best, it's all we need.
Please enjoy.
Have you spoken to your mother about me?
Yes.
Did she remember me?
Yes.
Oh, really?
You must take after your father.
I am exact replica of him.
Oh, is that so?
What does your father do?
He passed away about 3 years ago.
Really?
Here, eat up.
Here.
- Here. - It's salty.
Eat slowly.
What's going on here?
Can't you see? It's a party.
You know no one's in the mood for parties.
What is it? Did something happen?
No, there's nothing. It's just a party.
Really? So, you're not going to tell me.
Okay, I'll go ask noona.
Hey, hey Sang Chul. Don't ask noona. You can't.
There's something going on, isn't there?
It's written all over your face.
Phew.
Okay, I guess it isn't the wisest to keep this from you.
You should also be strong for her right now.
Kim Kang Mo is marrying his fiancée.
Kim Kang Mo, the bastard, not once does he deviate from my expectations.
What did I say?
Didn't I say he'll never return?
But what? You say he'll come back?
Do you know how many years I've observed him?
Do you know how many times I've seen my sister cry?
I'm not gonna let that bastard...!
Sang Chul! Sang Chul...
Let go! I'm not leaving that bastard alone!
Sang Chul, hey!
I went to see him. I met with him.
I told him that you said he was a zero. I told him that.
So Sang Chul, you don't have to go to him.
So you went to see him and said something like that.
I thought it was a little strange. I knew you weren't like that.
And that's why you were crying, because you felt so sorry for my sister.
Hey... why do you keep saying I cried? I didn't cry. I didn't.
Sang Chul, your sister is really struggling right now, so let's help her. Okay?
You're the one that's crying.
A man weeping like that... gosh...
Lee Yoon Seop! Lee Yoon Seop! Goo Min Ji!
Lee Yoon Seop! Goo Min Ji! Lee Yoon Seop!
You...!
Let's have a do-over. My hand was slippery.
There are no do-overs! And Min Ji moves up the bracket.
Yeah!
Applause!
Next up is our Postmaster and our Team Leader.
Big game! Big game! Big game! Big game!
Big game! Big game! Big game!
Postmaster, I'll go easy on you.
Why would you go easy? Do it right.
Just because I'm the postmaster doesn't mean it should be fixed.
Whoo hoo! Brave!
I'm not an old man.
When I say, ‘begin now' start. Begin, now!
Whoo hoo hoo! In one strike!
Oh, really!
Postmaster! Let's do it again.
What again? Forget it.
Postmaster!
Oh no...
Don't come out here.
Min Ji moves up. Postmaster is out, and Team Leader moves up to...
Lee Tae Won! Lee Tae Won! Lee Tae Won!
Did you harbor secret resentments toward me?
How can you just shoot me down in one shot like that? Huh?
And in front of everyone?
That's such low class, really low class.
The evaluations are just around the corner, right?
I must have lost my mind.
Are you getting it now?
Now, the final round is my brother who fought his way up
and his partner in life, my sister-in-law.
Han Ji Soo! Han Ji Soo! Han Ji Soo! Han Ji Soo!
Oh, you guys are really being unfair.
Ji Soo, I'm not giving you any breaks.
Yes.
Okay, when I say, ‘begin now' start. Begin, now!
Han Ji Soo! Han Ji Soo! Han Ji Soo!
You guys are really acting immature.
Hey! Goo Dong Baek! Don't run away!
Why are you screaming like that?
Han Ji Soo! Han Ji Soo! Han Ji Soo! Han Ji Soo!
Hooray! Yea!! Good job!! Han Ji Soo!
Han Ji Soo! Han Ji Soo! Han Ji Soo!
Go on in. You don't have to see us out.
Okay.
Thank you! That was fun! We'll come back, okay?
- Be careful on your way home. - Good bye.
What show is this now?
Was it a condition in the contract, to play with the postal employees?
Yeah, it did look like Han Ji Soo was forcing herself.
I was watching her and she never smiled fully.
Just go home already.
When you go inside, you have to clean up all that mess then you have to be locked up in your room.
Aiee...
If this isn't slavery, what is?
Dong Baek, let's be strong.
Just endure it a little bit longer.
Fighting!
Suk Hyun!
Oh brother.
Oh! Manager...
Oh?
I thought Ji Soo would be in bed sobbing, I really thought that.
I thank you so much, Goo Dong Baek.
No, it's not like that.
I didn't do anything.
It was Ji Soo who dusted herself off and got up on her own.
I'll be going in now.
Oppa, unni said let's spread our blankets out here and sleep all together.
Huh?
Ji Soo.
Unni, you sleep here together, too.
Okay.
‘The phone is turned off so you will be directed to the voice mail. When you hear the beep...'
Kang Mo...
Oh, you're here?
I brought the samples of the invitation so we can pick it out together.
Okay.
See? If you put them on, they look so nice.
I don't know why you didn't want to wear them.
Okay, let's see... how shall we order the sleeping spots?
Sang Chul, then oppa, unni, me, then the Manager.
No.
Sang Chul, then me, you, then Ji Soo and next to her, Manager.
A husband and wife has to sleep together.
See here. This couple sleep together all the time so for tonight,
brother and sister can sleep next to each other.
All of us sleeping here like this reminds me of when we were young.
Soybean stew, seasoned pickles, pig war... today was really... fun. Huh unni?
Yes.
Uh? Aish.
- Aish, what's this smell? - Oh, what is this smell?
Ugh.
- Ugh. - No kidding.
Oh wow, this is driving me nuts.
Who is it?
Oh... Oppa!
Oh, really. All that stew you ate!
It's not me.
What do you mean, not you? That stinky smell is just like an old man's fart.
I said it wasn't me. Really. This is so unfair!
Wait. Wait just a sec.
Oh, my goodness!
What, it was you?
Yeah, it was me.
Unni, is it that funny?
The look on Dong Baek's face, how unfair it was to him... I can't stop thinking about it.
Oh man. Why is she snoring so much?
Oh, Ji Soo. Did Min Ji wake you up?
Why don't you go into your room and sleep comfortably?
Shhh. I'm going into that room to listen to some music.
Do you want to listen with me?
Actually, I was supposed to go to Guam tomorrow.
And I wasn't supposed to come back here.
But, when I thought of leaving you, I got all teary.
I thought maybe parting was always a sad thing.
But it wasn't that.
When I got up to eat,
being around other people, and laughing with them,
all that was because I wanted to show it to you.
If you see me struggle, it might make you sad.
But curiously, all that pretending did make it better.
I think I'm a little stronger now.
Even if no one holds my hand at the edge of the cliff,
I now have the courage to jump off.
That it isn't the edge of a cliff but rather, a diving board.
And below that diving board is the cool, open ocean.
I came to believe that because of you.
I see.
Would you like to watch and see how fantastically I can jump off?
I'm sorry.
Will you stay by my side?
I believe, I believe in you, my love.
You who could put your hand on my aching heart.
I believe...
