Chapter 51 - My Dear Hana (5)

He continues to watch her as she grows. She makes it to the top university. She is becoming more beautiful day by day. He has visited her at the university frequently, standing far away to watch her. She is radiant. Beautiful. Extraordinary. It takes immense strength to hold back.

He has to change her first. The real Hana must come out for him. The date of execution finally arrives. He visits her parents' home. He is familiar with every nook and cranny. He inserts the key and opens the door. Her parents are not in the living room. He already knows that. Her mother is in the kitchen. Her father is in the study.

Slowly, he approaches her mother. Ahn Hana has her eyes and nose. He is grateful that she has given birth such a precious person. He will make it quick. He grabs her mouth to keep her from screaming and runs the knife across her throat. The woman dies. Fast. He lays her down on the cold floor respectfully. After all, she is Ahn Hana's mother.

He walks to the study. Her father is absorbed with the case. Ahn Hana loves her father the most. He places his hand on her father's shoulder. Her father looks at him. His eyes become big when he sees the knife in his hand. "You..."

The knife pierces through his father's skin. Her father's muffled screams please him. He stabs him again and again. 6 times. He tells her father, "You shouldn't have changed Hana so much."

The old man dies with a terrified look in his eyes. He starts working. He takes away the case files and burns it. People will think that the corporation is involved in his death. It's enough to change doubts and the direction of the investigation.

He doesn't go home right away. He goes to see his dear Hana. It's 3 in the morning. He looks at the open barred window of her room on the first floor of the building. She must be asleep now.

"Have sweet dreams, Hana," He whispers to the breeze, hoping that it will carry his message to her.

"Dream of me."

The morning comes. Ahn Hana runs out of the dormitory with tears in her eyes. She takes the old car that her father let her when she begged him a lot. He follows her car. He wants to be there when she sees her parents' corpses.

He calls the ambulance right away. He keeps whispering to her to hold on. She is not conscious. She doesn't respond. He is afraid that she will go away from him.

"Don't go into the light," He tells her and wipes the blood from her face. "Don't leave me. I am waiting for you, my dear Hana."

When the ambulance arrives, they only find Ahn Hana and the truck driver. There is no one else. They don't know who called them. They didn't have the time to care.
