Iseul looked at Yoongi who was talking with the staff of the funeral service.
She then diverted her attention towards the coffin which was a few feet away from where she was standing.
Her heart was beating so fast.
She wanted to go and look inside the coffin.
But on the other hand, she knew she was too weak to see herself lying down.
In a few minutes, she will be burned into ashes.
Yoongi was the one who insisted on letting her body lay in a coffin until she was taken away for the burning process.
Her lips trembled as she could feel that today was her last day on earth.
Yoongi looked at her who was lost in her thoughts as he felt helpless.
.
.
Yoongi and Taehyung finished talking as the staff came to take her body away.
"You... will stay right?" Yoongi whispered as he spoke to Iseul.
She nodded as she looked at her coffin being taken away.
But before she could say anything else, Yoongi's phone rang.
He frowned as he walked out to take the call. Iseul stood still.
.
.
"Hello?"
"Mr. Min, is it possible for you to come to the police station immediately? There is a huge problem here. Regarding Miss Baek's case!"
"Can I come at night-"
"I am afraid, she won't be here by the time. She has confessed about killing Miss Choi and revealed that she knew your child-"
Yoongi couldn't hear anymore as he quickly hung up the call and rushed towards his car.
He started the car hastily.
"Ajussi!"
Yoongi was panicking as he heard someone calling him. His eyes moved to Iseul who was standing outside of the car.
"I-I need to go.. Baek Sora has confessed to killing!"
Iseul shook her head.
"Don't go.. Please go later-"
"I think she is trying to kill my son! I-Iseul-ah, I will come back quickly, I promise!"
He started the engine as he drove.
He called Taehyung while he was driving.
"H-"
"Taehyung-ah! I am really sorry but could you please halt the burning process for an hour! Please it's urgent."
Yoongi hung up as soon as he spoke he called his detective.
.
.
On the other hand, Taehyung, who was immersed with the staff looked behind and saw his toddler playing with his phone.
"What are you doing?"
"Appa, I am playing with your phone!"
"Alright. Don't move and let me know if someone calls."
Who knew the toddler was the one who received Yoongi's call?
.
.
.
.
.
The moment Yoongi came inside, he was greeted with the shoutings of Baek Sora.
"W-what's happening?"
The police officer turned around and he sighed.
"Baek Sora has gone crazy. She wasn't even drunk yet she confessed everything yesterday evening."
Yoongi frowned.
"Let me go! They are dead! Let me go! I have to see my Yoon!"
Yoongi was disgusted as he walked towards her.
"Baek Sora! Did you kill my Yuna?"
His deep and angry voice made her shiver as she looked at her childhood love.
She smiled as she walked closer.
"Yoon.... She is dead... That bitch is dead too... Now, there is nobody to disturb us... Let's..make a beautiful daughter after we get married okay?"
Yoongi felt vomiting as the female police officer slapped Baek Sora.
"Aren't you ashamed after killing two people! You are also a woman! How could you kill two women?!"
Baek Sora laughed.
"Why? That bitch Yuna was between us! And then she had to give birth to a fucking daughter! What if she also came between us?"
Baek Sora completely lost her mind after seeing Iseul's ghost.
Yoongi widened his eyes after listening to her words. Mostly, hearing the daughter's words.
He looked at the police officer as the officer nodded his head.
Yoongi's detective was also there.
"Mr. Min, you should look at this CCTV.."
Yoongi's mind was screaming with what daughter and what kill. Was she talking about Iseul? But why...
The CCTV camera showed only Baek Sora who was talking with nobody but air. Yoongi widened his eyes the moment Baek Sora answered the AIR.
He immediately knew who was she talking with. It was Iseul.
It definitely has to be Iseul.
"I found out an hour ago. Miss Choi Yuna never gave birth to a son but a daughter. The other nurse from 19 years ago was found. She told me that she took the child to the orphanage and stayed with the girl for 9 years before she became paralyzed." The detective spoke as he gave Yoongi a file.
"Mr. Min. Your daughter is Miss Iseul who was living in Okami orphanage."
Yoongi's ears were too hot. His heart was beating too fast.
His hands were trembling and his mouth was dry.
He opened the file as the young Iseul's photo slipped a little.
Her colorful eyes as she smiled at the camera, looked exactly like Yoongi and Yuna.
Her gummy bear smile was the same as Yoongi's, her eyes were just like Yuna's.
Yoongi's tears started to flow nonstop as he sobbed.
"Unfortunately... miss Iseul met... with a terrible car accident a month ago caused by Baek Sora.." The detective spoke slowly.
Everyone in the police station widened their eyes at the detective's words.
"NO, no no no no no !!!!!!"
Yoongi was going insane as he rushed towards his car again.
Why was the world so cruel?
Just because Iseul died, had black eyes, grey skin, and an injured face and head before she died, why didn't he recognize her? Why couldn't he notice her?
The police's car followed Yoongi since they were worried.
He didn't answer their call as he called Taehyung thousands of times but he didn't answer the call.
Yoongi felt that he would have a heart attack stroke or panic attack at times.
He breathed heavily from his mouth as he drove faster.
.
.
He didn't even close the door as he ran inside only to see nobody. He stopped a worker as the worker told him that Taehyung was in the burning area.
Yoongi shouted as he rushed inside and found Taehyung standing in front of the window. His hands already pushed the button as the body inside started to burn.
'"ISEUL! NO! STOP IT! STOP IT!"
Yoongi shouted as he pushed Taehyung away and he pressed all the buttons to stop the fire inside.
"Hyung?! What happened?" Taehyung frowned as he held the collapsed crying Yoongi.
"M-my daughter...My daughter!!!!"
Taehyung frowned again.
"Daughter?"
"I-Iseul! For god's sake! Stop this!"
His shouting made the staff panic.
They flinched when police rushed inside.
"What are you doing here?"
Taehyung frowned as he looked at his workmate.
"Mr. Min's daughter was found."
Taehyung was smart enough to know what was the case.
He widened his eyes as he looked at Yoongi.
"Iseul was orph-"
"No, she was Mr. Min and the Late Miss Choi Yuna."
Taehyung's heart broke at the detective's words as he looked at the broken Yoongi.
Yoongi stood up as he looked here and there.
"I-Iseul-ah... Y-you are here, right? Where are you?" Yoongi looked around as he tried to look for Iseul but she wasn't there.
He walked out and here and there but there was no Iseul. Not even her shadow.
He understood that she was gone but he didn't want to believe it.
But he had to... Time waits for none.....

2 MONTHS LATER
Yoongi walked out of the hospital as he was taken to his house by his assistant.
It's been 2 months.
After Iseul's funeral, he was admitted to the hospital as he also found out the whole truth.
Iseul was indeed his daughter. Baek Sora knew it. She found out a long time ago. Unfortunately for her that Yoongi was there the day she murdered Iseul.
Maybe if she hadn't hit Iseul that day, then Yoongi would've never found the ghost Iseul. Iseul would have never tried to help him.
It was a fucked up blessing for him.
He met his daughter but at what cost? Her life.
And what made him feel more ill was that Iseul knew... She knew that she was his daughter.
Was that the reason for her absurd request for him to not go to Baek Sora? Because that woman knew too?
Was that the reason she suddenly wanted to call him Appa?
Was it because she knew Yoongi would die out of misery?
Was that the reason for her sudden sorrowful crying the night before the funeral day?
Nobody but Yoongi and she knew..
Yoongi cursed the god for taking his lover and daughter away but also thanked the god for letting him see his daughter.
Maybe he wouldn't feel that much sorry if he never saw Iseul.
But that was the public's opinion.
.
.
Yoongi sat in his room as he looked at the photos of Iseul and her school records.
He fetched all of her belongings from her old house. Even the chopsticks she used.
Yoongi lay on his bed as he looked at Iseul's bright smile at the school's forum.
"Ajussi..."
Her last word still rings in his ears.
Only if he never left her..
Then he could have spent a few minutes extra with his daughter.
"My daughter.... My Iseul..." Yoongi smiled as he chanted this sentence again and again.
His eyes were teary, he was crying but he was smiling too.
There was a notification from Taehyung but Yoongi didn't click on it as he continued to look at Iseul's photos and videos even if her video time was short.
