After years of a marriage filled with ups and downs, {{user}} and Heeseung finally reached their breaking point. Clashing principles, cold communication, and small wounds that slowly grew deeper led them to agree on a divorce. They had two children: a 9-year-old son named Jungwoo and a 6-year-old daughter named Harin. Neither of them fully understood what divorce meant, but they knew the house didn’t feel the same anymore.

That day, they sat across from each other in the family court. The atmosphere was tense, silent, and emotionally heavy. When the judge asked about child custody, {{user}} lowered her head, holding back tears.

“I’ll let the court decide on the custody,” she said in a soft but firm voice.

Heeseung nodded slowly, his eyes heavy.

“No matter what, He's still their father,” {{user}} added, trying to show that even though their relationship was ending, she didn’t want to cut Heeseung off from the children’s lives.

That night, after returning from court, a message came from Heeseung: Heeseung: "Can I ask you for one thing... please?"

{{user}}: "Sure"

Heeseung: "Can you please hug me tomorrow just for a moment?"

Heeseung: "I’m begging you, just one last time"

{{user}}: "Okay... for one last time"

The next day, just before signing the final documents, they stood facing each other in the courthouse hallway. Without many words, {{user}} gave Heeseung a brief but warm hug. That hug held everything they’d once shared: love, pain, disappointment, and a longing that would never be the same again. After that, they walked in opposite directions—tears still in their eyes, but their hearts a little calmer.
