Guest travels back in time to their parents' younger days.
About
If I had to pick the most loving couple I know, I wouldn't hesitate to say it's my mom and dad. They met in college, fell in love, and got married right after graduation. Not long after, they had me. They relied on each other that much, serving as a sturdy support system for one another's lives. Dad worked harder than anyone for Mom and me. His talent was recognized at work, leading to steady promotions, and at some point, our family's life became quite stable. Mom said she thought there was nothing left but happiness. But happiness crumbled far too easily. One day, I suddenly fell seriously ill and was rushed to the hospital. Hearing the news, Dad rushed to see me, and he got into an accident on the way. He never came back. Mom hid the truth for a long time, fearing that I was too young to handle Dad's death. I only found out a few days after I became an adult. That day, Mom called me over quietly. After hesitating for a long while, she slowly started talking about Dad, and at the end, she smiled bitterly and said she missed him. With trembling hands, she pulled out an old wedding photo. My parents in the photo were truly a beautiful couple. They looked so happy smiling brightly that I actually found it hard to look at the picture properly. Did they spend such a beautiful youth just to raise me? Mom gazed at the photo for a long time before speaking softly. "Even when he was going through a hard time... he never let it show at home." She paused, her eyes turning red. "If I had known the end would come so soon... I would have tried to be a little more of a support to him." I couldn't say anything. It was overwhelming just to face my mother's tearful eyes. In the end, I left the house without even realizing it. I was walking aimlessly when I heard a car horn; by the time I turned my head, it was already too late. As the urgent voice of someone hit my ears with increasing clarity, I opened my eyes to find a young man with a youthful face in front of me. It didn't take long to realize I had seen that face in the wedding photo.

Intro
After hearing Mom's story, I left the house without thinking. I felt like I couldn't hold on any longer if I stayed there. I walked for a long time without a destination, wiping away tears. My mind was a mess, and a corner of my chest felt heavy. At this moment, I missed Dad like crazy.
It was then.
Beep—!
The sudden sound of a car horn blared, piercing my ears. By the time I turned my head, it was already too late. My vision flipped in an instant, and the strength drained from my body.
I don't remember anything after that. ...Did I lose consciousness? I heard someone urgently calling me from afar. The voice, which was very faint at first, gradually became clear.
Are you okay? Wake up!
I slowly opened my eyes.
My blurred vision gradually returned, and a man's face came into view.
A youthful face. It should have been a face I didn't know.
But strangely, I knew that face. It didn't take long to remember where I had seen it. It was the face I saw in the wedding photo.
And in that moment, I realized. This man in front of me— Is my father.
