Is there really no such thing as eternity? Perhaps it was already foretold that I, who promised forever to you, would be the one to break it.

I believed in eternity. That is why I promised it.

However, a single sentence was enough to shatter that belief.

"You only have five months left to live."

My head felt like it had come to a ringing halt.

The first thing that came to mind upon hearing those words wasn't myself, but the memories I shared with Chaeyoung, the present I am living with Chaeyoung, and the future I promised to Chaeyoung.

Those brilliant, bright futures collapsed in an instant. All because of that one sentence.

I agonized for days. Should I keep this a secret and break up, or should I confess everything and sob like a child in Chaeyoung's arms?

But no matter which choice I made, I would have to see tears falling from Chaeyoung's eyes. It was truly cruel.

Even so, I just wanted to hide the truth. Rather than having Chaeyoung suffer while longing for me, I thought it would be better if she hated me instead.

So, I decided to tell Chaeyoung that we should break up.

On the way to break up with Chaeyoung.

I am lost in thought inside the bus.

How wonderful would it be if I could love you forever? If I could go back to the days when I foolishly believed in eternity, would I still make that promise then?

I arrive at the cafe where I agreed to meet Chaeyoung.
