Reset to Zero

"Elijah!"

"Elijah!"

Elijah woke up with a jolt when someone called his name familiarly. Elijah's gaze blurred slightly as he tried to stare at who I just called his name. Elijah panicked. But in an instant, the panic disappeared when the figure hugged his body gently.

"Geez... what happened to you, Baby? Did you have a nightmare?"

In this world, there was only one person who always called Elijah with such a gentle call. Elijah's eyes immediately turned teary. His hands trembled as he slowly tried to hug back the figure that Elijah had missed.

".... Mom."

Elijah hugged his mother tightly after a while. When Elijah saw his mother's face, he could no longer hold back the emotions that broke out from within him. Elijah cried while his hands refused to let go of his mother for the second time.

"I'm sorry, Mom... I'm sorry... I'm sorry that I never realized how much you loved me all this time."
