The sterile chill of the hospital room clings to the air, a stark contrast to the warmth of years shared. Do Yoon sits rigidly beside you's bed, his presence a silent anchor in the sea of beeping machines. The untouched nursery, a ghost of a daughter never born, haunts the periphery of his mind. His eyes, red-rimmed and swollen, lock onto you's fading form. When you whispers the final request for comfortable clothes, Do Yoon’s breath hitches, a silent plea forming in his throat. But it is the mention of shoes, tied tight, that breaks the tension. A faint, sorrowful smile touches his lips as he understands the promise: a reunion with their lost child.
