February 14, 1997, Third person's POV

"Yoohyun-ah!" a beautiful lady shouted, named Unmo.

The man turned around, smiling fondly at the girl, "Yes, Unmo-ssi?" he giggled, walking to hug her.

It was February 14, valentines day. A day for lovers.

But then, this couple is not that different from any other, they were forbidden. "Did you escape safely? Did anyone follow you" Yoohyun asked.

If you're curious, they were at an abandoned park Yoohyun have discovered.

Unmo smiled, "Yes Choi Yoohyun, I did escape! But no one followed, luckily!" she giggled, receiving a kiss from Yoohyun.

Yoohyun then lead Unmo to a car he rented, planning to go to an amusement park that opened recently.

"Yoohyun, this is fantastic!" she exclaimed. Coming from a wealthy family, Unmo hasn't seen an amusement park before.

Yoohyun blushed, "I-I'm glad" he replied, nervously scratching his nape.

Unmo excitedly pulled Yoohyun somewhere, lining up to whatever caught her attention.

The day was fun, it really was. It's already 5 pm, and they were tired to the limit.

They tiredly sat on one if the bench. He fondly looked at her, tucking her hair behind her ear.

"You're so beautiful, darling" Yoohyun smiled, to which Unmo gave back. She suddenly hugged him, mumbling a silent thank you.

He sighed in content, "Darling, don't thank me. I should be the one to thank you, for escaping from them just for me. It was surely dangerous--"

"Hush it now, Yoohyun. I'd rather spend my whole life with you than being stuck there in the mansion, meeting tons of men!" she breathed out,

"Which you, by the way, better than in each and every aspect!" she giggled, making him smile and assured.

But hey, Yoohyun was sensing something. They're not safe there.

As much as Yoohyun hated to say this, but "Unmo, we have to go. I'm sorry but we should take you home" he exclaimed, putting his arm behind her back.

"W-what? Yoohyun what's happening?" she was panicking, seeing how worried Yoohyun was.

But Yoohyun, oh poor Yoohyun, he knew they can't escape the reality. With that, he held her in both arms, making Unmo face him.

"Unmo, tell me you love me. You love me, right?" he begged, tears escaping his eyes as he asked Unmo, desperately.

Confused enough, "Yoohyun, you know I do. What's... what's happening?" Unmo asked, tears unknowingly falling.

As soon as Yoohyun saw the man, pointing the gun towards Unmo, he turned them around.

It was tragic, as Unmo saw how blood came out from Yoohyun's mouth.

"No, no, no! Darling no, please, stay awake. Someone help us!" Unmo yelled, people surrounding them, calling ambulance through their old phones.

Tears fell out of their eyes, as Unmo chanted tons of I love you's.

However, luck is not on their side. Yoohyun knew that very well.

"U-unmo, you know t-that I love y-you, right?" he asked tucking her hair behind her ear as she cried.

She was all broken, "Yoohyun please, don't talk like this, don't talk that way!" she cried, hugging him.

"Darling p-please, I wanna hear it" he plead, smiling sadly. "Okay fine! Yoohyun, I love you! I love you okay? I do love you!" she replied, crying in despair.

He chuckled, bearing the pain. "I'll miss s-seeing you l-like this, move... m-move on darling" he smiled, feeling his own self slipping away.

"No, Yoonhyun don't leave me, please! Please hold on for me, please!" Unmo begged, wiping her tears away.

"S-ee you again, Unmo, I'll w-wait there, in another life" Yoonoh closed his eyes, the smile not leaving his lips.

And that's when Unmo broke into tears, her eyes shedding a lake of tears.

"Yoohyun, please wake up... I'm begging you please, Yoohyun! Wake up Yoohyun! We'll runaway right? Yoohyun please~" she cried out, the people around them pitying her.

Just then, the ambulance  came to the scene, making Unmo part from Yoohyun. Unmo went with them to the hospital.

Unmo cried endlessly, calling Yoohyun's parents. And so, everyone cried, the parents hugging her.

They have made sure not to call Unmo out for this, knowing how the pair suffered through the past months.

But the doctor came with a news, making them die inside, especially Unmo.

"N-no... auntie, uncle, that's... that's not true! He's not d-dead, he's alive right? Yoohyun is alive, right?" Unmo cried out, harder this time.

Sadly, the two elder ones told her what she needed, not what she wanted.

Yoohyun Choi, the other half of Kim Unmo, died, in their date on valentines day.

ㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡ

"Please, let me live again, let me be back with Unmo!" Yoohyun begged, crying there in heaven.

Yes, he really died. He did it to save her, but he failed to save himself.

The angels circling around him looked at him with sympathy. Fortunately, the creator listened to what he had just said.

"Look, Yoohyun. It is not easy, but the best I can do is... to make you live in another body, be born again" He replied, pity in His voice.

Yoohyun looked up, looking at the light before his eyes. "I-is that possible? How about... h-her?"

"Yoohyun, she'll actually follow you. We are not sure when, but she will, eventually.

You will be born in this day, in another body. Be back to being a child, and all that.

However, you'll only remember about this in the same day, the day you turn 19" He replied, instructing Yoonoh.

"But will she... remember me?" Yoonoh asked once again, "She won't, but you guys will meet either way. The question is, are you willing to risk for the same person, Choi Yoohyun?"

And that, that was enough to make Yoohyun go with the deal.

ㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡ

On the other side, there was Unmo. Still living, broken and all. Her parents have let her mourn with the Choi's. After all, it's them who caused her pain.

She thought her parents will change, but they didn't.

She was locked up inside the house, the guards and maids can't do anything but lock her in.

She was fed up with all of it, but she tried to survive. They made her have male visitors, which, actually, happened for 8 years.

However, on September 3, 2002, the 25 years old Unmo had enough, tired of yearning for her late lover.

She had to act good around her parents to not receive any punishments. She learned, though. But that's enough.

She was cooking, or let's say, pretending to. She was crying while cooking, remembering how Yoohyun used to hug her from behind while she cooks for the Choi's.

However, she saw a knife, lying near the spatula. She was tempted to end it, give up. And she did.

She stabbed herself, on her stomach. The scream she let out was a sign for her parents, and for everyone.

There she laid down, a knife on her stomach, smile on her lips.

That moment her parents knew how they were wrong, how they've made their daughter live in hell.

But it's too late, she's now gone.

ㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡ

"Why did you do that?" the creator asked her, somehow sadness in His voice.

"I am sorry, I really am. Please understand me, because I've had enough. Ever since he died, I was never happy.

I know it is my fault too, I accept being in hell as a punishment" she cried out.

But of course, He would never fail the promise He made, the deal that happened 5 years ago.

"I'm sorry too, Unmo. But the punishment I have for you is different. You'll have to be born again, on this day, in another life"

"W-what? I apologize for being disrespectful but... why?" she asked.

"That's the punishment that is meant for you, Unmo. Now, go" He instructed.

Just in a snap, Unmo vanished, like a bubble.

"My Lord, do you think they will be together once again?" one of the angels asked.

"I hope so, they write their own story. I hope Yoohyun can make it" He sighed, afraid of the future of the pair.
