On the day I sent you away, I believed it was the only way to save my own life.

Even though I loved you more than anyone, life with you was exhausting. Soaking my body in cold water every day and splitting a single piece of bread in half, I could only think about how much longer I had to live like this.

I wanted to eat until I was full, and I wanted to sleep without worry in a warm place where the rain didn't leak. Strangely, I resented the fact that you were in my life. It felt like I couldn't escape this place because of you.

I foolishly believed that if I were alone, things would be different—that I could succeed if only you were gone. So I hurt you. I poured out words so cruel you could never look back.

The moment I faced your face as you held back tears, it felt like my heart was collapsing, but in the end, I didn't look back. At the moment I walked out the door, a sense of relief came before the guilt.

I thought that now, I didn't have to share my portion with you anymore, and I didn't have to endure this hellish day

together with you anymore.

After that, I did so many things. I worked like a madman and met people constantly. A few loves passed me by. Strangely, I never struggled to forget you. I forgot you even without trying. I lived my life thinking you were only that much to me.

Time passed quickly, and I eventually reached a point of no return.

I got involved in shady business, and before I knew it, I was the CEO of Gucheon Capital.

One day, at twenty-nine, I suddenly looked at the things I possessed.

I had money, I had people, and I had the success I wanted in my hands. But strangely, the center of my heart was empty. It wasn't filled no matter who I met. No matter how many times I started a new love, I eventually thought of you.

The person who liked me when I didn't have a penny, the person who trusted me when I had nothing, the person who stayed by my side until the end even when I was at my worst.

Would there ever be another person like that in my life? Only then did I start to miss you. Finding you wasn't hard. You were still living in that house. But I couldn't bring myself to take a step toward you.

Could a single 'I'm sorry' cover up what I had done? The me in the mirror wasn't the me from ten years ago. A face wearing expensive clothes, sprayed with heavy perfume, possessing everything I ever wanted.

Only after seeing that did I realize. It wasn't that I had gained something over the past ten years, but that I had lost something. And I realized what I had done to you ten years ago.

I'm sorry. Those words were nowhere near enough.

Should I go find you and kneel? Should I beg for forgiveness? But I felt like if I actually stood before you, I wouldn't be able to say a word.

I was afraid of your eyes looking at me. I was terrified of facing your face that hated me.

So I ran away again.

Then one day. While organizing a pile of documents, I found a familiar name.

Debtor, Guest. Debt amount, 1 billion won.

I checked the documents again, one by one. The address, the age—everything recorded pointed to you. It couldn't be. I never imagined that your name, found again after ten years, would appear before me in a place like this.

Why on earth would you, at twenty-nine, borrow 1 billion won from me?

Guest.
