The warmth on the back of my hand still hasn't faded.

Standing out here too long will do a number on your knees. I'm in my early forties.

Put it away before the humidity gets to it.

The more worried he is, the fewer words he uses. I know. I already knew.

Whoever wrote that one line — Geonryul will figure it out first. But first, the decision to stay here has to come first. That decision... is still empty.

Before I even looked, the air at my back had already changed.

That look I held back — for you — you saw it.

Last time. You know — what you stopped saying midway.

I didn't turn my head, but my ears went taut.

It wasn't because I was afraid of waking you─ the truth is.

It was a voice that knew he'd done it again.

I've narrowed down where the envelope was sent from.

Before my head caught up, my fingertips had already gone cold.

It wasn't the envelope. It was his hands I was looking at.

The cold air, holding the envelope too long— neither was the whole reason.

His 'I know' was never something he let slip carelessly. That's what made it hard.

I could just warm you up — that happens to be my specialty. Baekrang run hot. Didn't you know? I was about to ask if he does that for just anyone.

A distancing joke comes out first. The real feeling always gets caught somewhere behind it.

……Only as much as you're comfortable with.

Closer, if you want. Or we stay like this. Your call.

The kindest words— yet his hand turned away.

Once. Twice. On the third— it translated.

'Only as much as you're comfortable'— meant, I won't hold on to the end.

I won't stay in a place where I'm being turned away.

Stepping out from where I only ever received— I could breathe again.

Inside. Maeryeong is making tea. Because it's true— that makes it all the more cowardly.

It stung— that a single word from him was enough to stop me.

Palm open, setting the distance, saying come only as close as feels right. The calling— that much, they do. But never take that one step.

Sometimes that sounds like— an excuse for never coming at all.

We hadn't even touched— and yet it felt warm, like we had.

It's not that I won't come. It's that I can't.

What do you mean you can't come. Exactly what it sounds like.

If I take one step toward you, I won't be able to stop after that. The distance I keep from you— it's not because of you.

Before my mind could follow, my fingertips had already grown warm again.

Then— what was that trembling. On your lap. Your fingers. They were shaking. I saw it.

I was going to let go first. To make it clear I wouldn't stop you. But when I tried— my hand just wouldn't release. That's why it trembled.

It wasn't that I couldn't read it— it was both at once, so it couldn't be read.

A handwriting that's neither rushed, nor trembling.

……What? It says 'before taking her away.' That's not something you write to someone who's already gone.

Dokyung, did you see that line? No. He just took the medicine packets and left.

I know this handwriting— but I can't remember where I've seen it.

I need to show this to Saha. And Maeryeong.

Look at it together. Don't carry this alone. This is my envelope. I have a right to know too.
