[(Exclusive report) Apartment fire in Seoul. It was put out in about 30 minutes.….]

    In the evening, a fire broke out in an apartment in Seoul, killing a child.

    At around 3 a.m. on the 29th, A (10-year-old) was taken to a hospital with third-degree burns to her entire body after a fire broke out in an apartment in Seoul, but died around 5 a.m., more than two hours later.

    The fire burned down the epicenter kitchen and spread to the living room, but there was no damage to neighbors or other households.

    The fire was completely extinguished in about half an hour.

    Police investigating the case found out the truth that A touched the fire wrong while cooking for her mother.

    A''s mother was found to have been unable to take good care of A because she usually worked as a nurse in two shifts until dawn.

    * * *

    [Follow-up story on apartment fire]

    Two new things have been revealed about Miss A, who died after treatment.

    A''s mother, B, 38, was found dead in a temporary home two weeks after the incident.

    Her hospital colleagues, who found it strange that she was not contacted at all, visited her, got a taste test and reported it to the police, after she had already hanged herself a few days ago.

    Police also said they were investigating suicide in mind.

    The daughter, who was lost in the accident, is expected to be the reason for her suicide.

    However, according to the report, there was a different point of contact between mother B and daughter A.

    Right after the fire broke out. Mr. B who was in the hospital...….

    * * *

    “…….”

    For a moment, there was silence.

    One day, I shut my eyes and shut my mouth completely, and stopped like a stone.

    Puck--!

    Soon, he threw the cell phone he was holding onto the street.

    The cell phone, which had no scratches while using it carefully, was completely destroyed in an instant.

    It was completely split in half how hard it was thrown, showing the battery and electronic components inside.

    No, I couldn''t see it, so I sprung out and fell on the floor.

    Although there were not many people, a few people passing by looked at the day with the eyes of a crazy person.

    But the eyes of the day didn''t catch the eye at all.

    His fists, clenched tightly, trembled.

    "The Grim Reaper!"

    "Yes."

    Screamed frantically with evil.

    As if he had waited, the grim reaper appeared before him.

    Black suit, mascara, lipstick as always.

    But for what it''s worth, it looks even darker today.

    Like the mind of a darkened day.

    "What''s going on?"

    "What happened?”

    "Don''t pretend you don''t know. Hayoon and Park Shinhye! How... how could this happen? To the people who lived somehow!"

    The eyes of the day were red.

    It wasn''t just a feeling of anger or sadness.

    The mother and daughter who went through this terrible thing laughed so happily at their restaurant, ate, and spent time together.

    Even though her daughter Hayoon knew everything, she desperately pretended not to know for her mother.

    Hayoon''s smile was always smiling.

    If you look at the complaints soaring up into the sky, you can see his hands shaking with his eyes wrinkled.

    And the crappy reality that I didn''t realize those things in advance when I was the owner of the restaurant and living under the name of a chef.It was incredibly painful for Haru.

    To say the least, the whole body seemed to be torn apart.

    Like the pain Hayoon felt before.

    The grim reaper looked at the day full of evil and then sighed quietly.

    "So, are you trying to argue with me?”

    "Ta, you''re arguing? What did you just say?”

    "Are you trying to argue?" People die, accidents happen, sad things happen. I asked the grim reaper if he was trying to tackle such things. You idiot."

    "But it''s...….”

    "I know. I''m sad, too. I''m not lying, I''m really madly sad. But what should I do? That''s fate. There''s no end to it when you start arguing once a day. You know that well."

    "To write off as fate...…. It''s so sad. Why.”

    "Why. Why. Why. Now. I don''t know about that. It''s just, that''s what happened. Because of fate. It really just so happens."

    One day I couldn''t argue with the Grim Reaper at all.

    He was also aware of that.

    That what you''re saying is nothing more than nonsense.

    A little further than that, you can only see the whining of an immature young man.

    But it couldn''t be helped. I wanted to ask you this.

    I couldn''t stand it if I didn''t hear something similar.

    Even though there is no reason in the past of the two mothers and daughters, which is tragedy itself.

    As if he knew the feelings of such a day, he supported the day when the grim reaper was about to collapse.

    "Be positive. You''re a day away.”

    "What do you mean……?”

    "The only one who can make the ghosts who were destined to wander forever. Well, now there''s Yumi. Anyway, you''re the only one for a day. The official recognition of the Underworld."

    In other words, this is what the grim reaper said.

    "Do what you do, do what you do. Let''s find out more about it and find out more about Han. Make me a bowl of delicious food. May you feel the pain of finding your memory."

    In a way, it was a matter of course.

    But sometimes the natural words that come out of someone''s mouth are the best consolation.

    Using the grim reaper as a prop, the day slowly rose again.

    She said she was busy with work and had to go now.

    I opened the door of the park management office and pointed my finger at something before it disappeared.

    The day paused and looked at the place, and the cell phone he had broken was back intact.

    Just like when Haru blew up the oral fairy tale kitchen in a gas explosion, the grim reaper repaired the goods this time.

    I trudged along and picked up my new smartphone. When I turned on the screen, the article I saw earlier was still on.

    But one day I didn''t look away now.

    On the contrary, I read the article with a bright look.

    [However, the report found that there was a different point of contact between mother B and daughter A. Mr. B, who was in the hospital right after the fire broke out...….]

    * * *

    "Hayoon, let''s eat. Huh?"

    "No! I don''t like stir-fried anchovies. I don''t like kimbap either!"

    "I''m not doing this for you because I like it. I''m busy right now, too. I have to go out, but Hayoon is doing this to make sure you eat. So, uh? Let''s have a bite.""No, no, no! No! I''m not having breakfast!"

    Inside a small two-room apartment in the middle of Seoul, a mother and daughter were scuffling since morning.

    The one who wants to feed, the one who wants to run away.

    Park Shin-hye, who somehow tried to feed Ha-yoon kimbap made with rice and stir-fried anchovies in yangban seaweed, sighed as the ground soon went out.

    "Kil Ha Yoon."

    An unusual voice.

    Having instinctively sensed that something was wrong, Hayun stopped and noticed her mother.

    "Your mother said something. It''s just the two of us."

    "There are only two of us, so we have to live twice as hard...….”

    "You know she''s working twice as hard as anyone else. By the way, what does mom want from you? Did I tell you to get the top of the whole school? I just asked you to eat comfortably. Is that such a difficult thing to do?”

    "Not that...….”

    "Please do me a favor! Hayoon! It''s because my mom is having a hard time. I know, Mom. I''m sorry I didn''t take care of you well. But if you do that too. How do you live your life? Please do me a favor. Hayoon, grow up, don''t be like your dad!"

    What--!

    Park Shin-hye, who was screaming, soon closed her mouth with both hands as if she was embarrassed.

    Made a mistake.

    That''s not to say I got angry, but I brought up my father''s story.

    The story of his father, who left home without any responsibility or responsibility as a breadwinner, was like a taboo that should not be told between Ha-yoon and Park Shin-hye.

    But it''s not enough to say that, you''re scolding me like this.

    Ring ring ring--!

    Ring ring ring ring---!

    In the midst of a frenzy, even the cell phone rang like crazy.

    When I checked the sender, he was a nurse.

    I didn''t have to answer the phone to see if it was on its way.

    Park Shin-hye, who managed to come to her senses, played an anchovy fried gimbap in Ha-yoon''s hand.

    "I''m sorry my mom got mad. I''m begging you, though. All right?"

    "……Yeah. I''m sorry, Hayoon."

    "No, my daughter. I''m sorry about everything. I don''t think I can take you home today. You can go to school well, right?”

    Nodding.

    Hayoon who answers by nodding instead of answering instead.

    I was desperately holding back my tears.

    I shouted to grow up, but I grew up in a strange place.

    Park Shin-hye''s heart broke again when she saw such a daughter.

    Park Shin-hye, who picked up her daughter, quickly changed her clothes and left the apartment.

    But what you did wrong was wrong. First of all, you have to pretend to be angry.’

    Acting angry, I sent Ha-yoon to school with a bit of a cold heart.

    I looked back at my daughter''s droopy back several times, perhaps because I was scolded in the morning, and soon got on the bus and headed to the hospital.

    "Shinhye, why are you so late? Hurry up and get changed and come out. We''re in a hurry!"

    "Yes, yes! I''ll be right there!"

    "Hurry up, hurry up!

    Sure enough. Today was also an emergency as soon as I came to work.

    As I was busy pressing patients who were about to lose their breath, there was no room for other thoughts in my head.

    * * *

    7 p.m.

    It was not until 7 o''clock that Park Shin-hye''s work was finished.

    I haven''t even eaten dinner yet, but I wasn''t hungry. It was a scene that became a daily routine.

    Taking a breather in the pantry for a while reminded me of Ha-yoon.

    As expected, I was too much earlier.After a while, I regretted it.

    But I''m still a child. He''s already lost so many things.

    I felt uncomfortable because I felt like I raised another luggage.

    Even if I can''t relieve the burden, it would be the role of parents to build it for them.

    You''ll be at school by now, right?’

    Fortunately, Hayoon''s elementary school had a care program where parents watched double-income students until evening.

    Park Shin-hye was also forced to use the program a lot.

    I''m going home early today, so I''ll take Hayoon to eat something delicious. Go to the mart and buy me a toy while you''re at it. Buy me sushi that Hayoon likes.

    If you think about the time, it''s over the mart deadline, but what does it matter?

    I''m making money for my daughter.

    Thinking that she should pick her up, she found her care teacher''s contact information on her cell phone and called.

    There were a couple of "ttururu-ttururu-ttururu-tururu-tururu-tururu-tururu-tururu

    "Hayun''s mother! What''s the matter?"

    "Thank you for your hard work, sir. It''s nothing. Can you tell Hayoon that I''ll be there in a little while? Let''s go buy Hayoon''s favorite Secret Juroring toy today."

    "What? Hayoon went home first.”

    "What? What do you mean?"

    Incredible words that came back soon.

    Park Shin-hye''s heart fluttered.
