Mother's dream

Yonseo sat alone on a bench, tears rolling down her cheeks.

She still couldn't believe what had happened. After finally finding her mother, she had lost her again.

"I scared her..." Yonseo whispered sadly.

The painful situation reminded her of all the happy memories she had shared with her mother in the future.

The sky slowly turned orange as evening approached. Yonseo's face looked pale, and she felt hungry after wandering around all day.

People walked past her, but nobody noticed the lonely girl sitting there.

Yonseo wiped away her tears.

Crying wouldn't solve anything.

There was only one reason she had traveled twenty years into the past—to make her mother's life happy and successful. Even if she had to sacrifice her own life, she was willing to do it.

That showed how deeply she loved her mother.

"I have to find Mom again," she said determinedly.

Yonseo stood up and began walking through the busy streets. She carefully retraced the path her mother had taken earlier.

After searching for a long time, she finally reached a small park.

There, she saw something familiar.

A white hair clip.

Yonseo immediately recognized it.

It belonged to her mother.

Her heart filled with hope, and a small smile appeared on her face.

"Mom must have dropped this," she thought.

Holding the hair clip tightly, Yonseo continued searching. She decided she would return it to her mother.

As night slowly fell, the city lights began to shine.

Yonseo suddenly realized something.

She had nowhere to go.

She was alone in an unfamiliar time.

Fear slowly crept into her heart.

But before she could panic, she noticed a small bookstore nearby.

The sign outside caught her attention.

For some reason, the place felt strangely familiar.

Curious, Yonseo stepped inside.

The warm smell of books filled the air.

As she looked around, her eyes widened.

It was her mother.

She was sitting quietly, reading books related to medical science.

Yonseo wasn't surprised.

When Yonseo was young, she had once asked her mother what career she had dreamed of pursuing.

Her mother had smiled and said, "I wanted to become a nurse."

At that moment, Yonseo had made a promise to herself.

She would fulfill her mother's dream.

Slowly, Yonseo walked toward her mother and handed her the hair clip.

"Miss, this is your hair clip. I found it on the roadside," she said.

Her mother looked surprised.

"Thank you so much, little girl," she said warmly.

Then she tilted her head.

"But... why did you call me 'Mumma' earlier?"

The question made Yonseo's eyes fill with tears.

Without understanding why, her mother gently hugged her and tried to comfort her.

Yonseo couldn't hold back her emotions.

"Because... you look just like my mother," she whispered.

Before her mother could ask anything else, Yonseo quickly ran away.

Her mother watched her leave, completely shocked.

"Why is that girl so strange?" she wondered.

A few minutes later, Yonseo stopped at a nearby temple.

She folded her hands and prayed.

At that moment, she felt happier than she had in years.

For the first time since arriving in the past, she had hugged her mother.

To Yonseo, it was the most precious moment of her time-travel journey.

But this was only the beginning.

No one knew what the future would bring.
