A Day After Tomorrow

Summary:

June 25, 2016
After years of tranquility, North Korea, due to its invasiveness, instantaneously sparked a battle on a Friday midnight within the epicenter of Seoul. The South Korean Government amphibiously defended its sovereignty heavily through the tactical art of air to air combat.

December 20, 2021
On a Friday afternoon, the long-awaited peace treaty was, at last, signed by both nations to formally end the second war of attrition.

In a period where terror and death defied the grounds, only a thousand and ten soldiers survived its ruthlessness. And Soobin, an aircraft commander, was one of them. However, surviving was merely just labor for him. Coming home to the hands he left was more of a daunting intangible conflict emanating within himself.

Chapter Text

Yeonjun

I seem to find myself hopeful every day. That one day, I would come to locate you, or as you would to me.

Well, right now, I just came home to the accustomed setting, with Sean scrambling around our front lawn. Trampling over the patches of Cosmos and Huckleberry we had planted for the last couple of years. He also attempted to unearth the letters we had buried years back. And he kind of did. I would then bury it back to its grave. And it made me reminisces of yesterday.

Though, never was I irate at our son for doing such an act of nuisance; yet every day, it brought me nostalgia on our first. I understand and accept the reality that someday, you’d disappear.

Falling to my knees, hugging him tightly, I failed to bear myself into tears. Both of us are dying to see you.

Someday, how I wished that someday was today or tomorrow, but not the day after tomorrow, I would get to see you once again. And we could continue our lives without me only seeing our son on the lawn, without me cooking dinner for two, or without Sean staying in the dog park for the whole day. Oh, I know you all too well that you likewise hate him going there.
