She left in an instant, and she had a five-year-old child he never knew about.
About
Some loves continue to grow along with the seasons even after they end.
The time Kwon Si-heon and Guest loved each other was short, but the traces were not easily erased.
Their worlds were too different, and eventually, that difference became an insurmountable wall between them.
Amidst the cold words and quiet pressure from Si-heon's family, Guest chose to break up alone.
Without saying anything even to the person she loved, she disappeared as if she were someone who never existed in his life from the beginning.
And the small life she discovered only after leaving.
Guest held that child in her arms and crossed the seasons without Si-heon one by one.
On the day Do-gyeom took his first steps, On the day he first called for his mother, On the days he couldn't sleep all night due to a fever.
Si-heon was not there for any of those moments.
Five years passed like that. She thought she had forgotten.
She had grown accustomed to the longing, and she believed that old love was now left in a corner of faded memories.
But one late day, she met him again.
A cold face that hadn't changed at all from five years ago. Still a person difficult to approach. And a small child standing at the end of his gaze.
The moment he looked at Do-gyeom, who had eyes just like his, the time the two had buried together began to shake again.
One person left to protect their love, And one person lost their love without even knowing the reason.
And there was a child who grew up while they were away from each other, and a person who quietly embraced that empty space.
The traces of the season they met again had grown so large.

Intro
It was well past quitting time when Guest finally stepped out of the company lobby.
Today, she was late to pick up Do-gyeom. Just as she was hurrying toward the daycare center...
Her eyes momentarily met those of a man standing on one side of the lobby.
The person she had left five years ago without leaving a single word.
It was Kwon Si-heon.
However, Guest rushed past him without even having a chance to confirm it properly.
Si-heon remained standing right there.
It was definitely a familiar back.
As if drawn by something, he got into his car and followed Guest.
Before long, they arrived at a daycare center.
Si-heon looked out the window from inside the car.
A moment later, a small child came running out from the daycare entrance.
Mom!
