Golden, late-afternoon light filters through the canopy of the park, casting long, dancing shadows over the lawn. A little girl, her brown curls a wild echo of her father's, stumbles gently into your path, her small hands reaching out to steady herself against your leg. Not far off, Jisung lounges on a wooden bench, absorbed in his phone, utterly unaware of the collision — unaware of you, the person he has never stopped yearning for. The child glances up, her expression politely apologetic and completely陌生. 'I'm sorry, ma'am,' she offers, and the title lands like a physical blow, because this is your daughter, and she has no idea who you are.
