The Terminal Baby Physician Doesn’t Hide Being a Genius
Chapter 87
There was no time to think about why he was acting this way, or what exactly was causing it.
I had to stop him right now!
‘Let me tell you in advance, in the same situation, you can do anything from now on. You can even hit me or curse at me to stop me.’
The wave I created by drawing water from the Water Container tried to wrap around Dad, but.
Splash!
The wave burst apart just like that. The water scattered with a whoosh, leaving only droplets falling on me.
I opened my mouth in shock as the water droplets hit my face.
‘What… this power.’
Only then did I realize.
All this time… Dad had been letting himself be affected by my Diagnosis. I swallowed nervously from the tension.
“Ugh, Physician, the person…”
Sylvester’s weakening voice brought me back to my senses. I couldn’t just stand by and watch this.
I grabbed a handful of crumbled dirt and threw it directly at him.
Thud!
“St-stop it, I said stop!!”
Finally, Dad turned his gaze to me.
The wariness from when we first met was nothing compared to this.
‘His eyes…’
Empty eyes. Different from the eyes that had just been filled with anger, resentment, and hatred.
His red pupils stared at me for a long time, then tilted his head.
Soon he looked surprised…
“…You look alike?”
Unbelievably, Dad smiled brightly. A beautiful smile with his eyes full of warmth.
It was a face so gentle it could melt your heart.
“It’s our Biyu.”
I flinched.
“You’ve grown so big that I didn’t recognize you for a moment.”
That face was definitely… the one I had seen in Dad’s memories.
The face that had cried and laughed happily toward me.
“Dad was just… out of his mind for a moment. Anyone who speaks carelessly about Mother must all die.”
“…”
“No matter how much I deal with them, there are too many people in this world who covet you and her.”
My heart pounded unpleasantly.
‘What the hell is this situation.’
If I had used Diagnosis, I might have known, but with Wave gone now, it was hopeless.
My body stiffened and I couldn’t even attempt anything else.
Dad smiled beautifully.
“Wait just a moment, Dad will take care of this vermin and then we’ll go.”
Those words only made me feel more chills.
It was Dad’s gentle face that I had longed to see so much, but this wasn’t how I wanted to see it.
‘Damn it, what kind of nonsense is that, mister!’
What the hell are you looking at?
What are you thinking of?
‘Still, you can’t do this!’
I quickly ran over and grabbed Dad. Only later did I realize that I had passed through Dad’s Wind Power without any problem again.
“Don’t kill him! You said you’d listen to whatever I say! Don’t kill him!!”
“…Me? Ah, I did make that promise. Hmm…”
Dad tilted his head and fell into thought. I felt the hand gripping Sylvester’s neck loosen slightly.
At that moment, my eyes met Sylvester’s.
“But Biyu, this guy said bad things.”
Dad soon narrowed his eyes and smiled prettily. Even though he was smiling, it strangely gave me chills.
“He needs to be punished.”
His gentle voice seemed to be scolding me.
“My daughter, Dad will show you how to deal with bad guys.”
It seemed like Dad was far from earning the right to scold me.
‘Dad definitely reacted to Sylvester’s words, right? Was it about the remains?’
Mother’s remains. It was a word that made my heart feel eerie too, but I didn’t have time to think deeply about it.
I spoke without going through any deliberation.
“Mother’s name!”
“…”
“What’s Mother’s name? You said that person said bad things. You remember this much and get angry, right?”
Because Dad consistently couldn’t remember Mother. Ah shit, what happens if he remembers?
Fortunately it seemed to work as Dad hesitated.
“…Her name?”
He looked shocked himself. Dad touched his own face with his free hand.
It was a confused expression.
“Huh, she’s… who is she?”
“…!!”
Tears instantly streamed down from Dad’s eyes. I thought there would be nothing left to surprise me about…
“Biyu, I don’t know who she is. What is this?”
Tears wildly soaked his pure white cheeks.
“Why does my chest… hurt…?”
His eyes lost their direction and shook wildly. His red eyes dropped Water constantly like transparent gems.
“Something, I lost it, something very, very important….”
Even so, Dad’s expression was as empty as if he had lost everything. He also looked like a child who didn’t know what to do.
Dad was crying like a lost child. What’s this, why is he crying. Making people’s hearts weak.
“Hand! Hold my hand!”
I reached out my hand to Dad. Speaking deliberately firmly.
No, I reached out both hands completely.
“I’ll hug you. So stop that and come here!”
Dad’s eyes shook mercilessly. I no longer cared that Dad had suddenly become strange.
I could only see the endlessly falling tears.
“I lost something important….”
“I’ll find it for you. Biyu will find it for you!”
I spread my hands even wider.
“Leave that person and come here. I need Dad.”
That Dad silently hugged me when I cried, apologized and wiped away my tears.
Somehow what Dad needed seemed to be those same actions I had received then. Yes, it felt like I absolutely had to hug him.
I can give back at least that much.
“Come here, quickly.”
Dad slowly put Sylvester down. Soon the man fell to the Floor, coughing and hacking.
Good, he’s not dead.
Dad collapsed to his knees in front of me with a thud.
“Strange, Dad’s head hurts a lot. My chest hurts too….”
I burrowed into Dad’s arms and hugged him tightly. Because of the size difference, it was more like I was being hugged.
Strong arms embraced me. Dad’s body temperature transmitted to me was lower than usual.
‘…Too cold. Why?’
Dad’s Wind Power was always cool or cold. Could this be related?
‘More than that, why did he suddenly act like his personality changed?’
There was nothing I could understand, but for now let’s just hug him silently. Just like this person did for me.
“I lost something important….”
At those words, I couldn’t help but lower my gaze. That’s about Mother, isn’t it?
But Dad, I’m right here in front of you too.
Your Daughter is right in front of you, so why are you only looking for Mother. I held back the feeling of wanting to cry somehow.
‘You’re really a bad Dad.’
I shouldn’t act like this too.
“Dad, don’t talk like you’ve lost everything. I’m right here next to you.”
“….”
“I’ll always… stay by your side.”
I held Dad tightly.
“From now on, Dad will have even more precious things. Me too, Uncle Baek too, Uncle Poo too. And Nephew too.”
I recalled the time when we shared drinks calling ourselves family.
“Lost things can be found. Painful things can be cured with Medicine.”
“….”
“There’s no pain… that lasts forever.”
At least I’m going to believe that.
Otherwise, my life would be too pitiful, wouldn’t it.
“I’ll watch over Dad becoming happy. I’ll find everything you lost too.”
Yes, Mother left early. But I will stay by your side until I leave this world. Until the day I return all your memories to you.
“Dad’s Daughter will stay by your side.”
So I hope these words will be a comfort.
“…Without dying.”
“Yeah, without dying. Dad just has to protect me.”
“Protect….”
Dad, who had been muttering blankly, held me tight.
“…Didn’t die.”
I smiled bitterly. Wanting to believe she didn’t die seemed to be about Mother again.
“Everything’s okay. I’m right here beside you.”
One thing I could understand.
This person felt the loss of his Wife, and refuses to acknowledge it. Or he wants to think that loss never happened.
“…It’s so cold.”
Dad muttered while holding me in his arms.
“It’s been cold for so long…. It was raining on the day I sent you away too….”
The day he sent me away? I lifted my head. Whatever happened….
‘He’s regaining his memories.’
I swallowed hard.
As a Physician, I should make a cold judgment, but I couldn’t quite do that.
Because Dad, who had lowered his body at some point, was looking at me with infinitely gentle eyes.
“I did well to protect, didn’t I? Right?”
Who does he want to ask? What did he protect?
“…I miss her. But why, why can’t I remember her name….”
Dad’s eyes, who had been muttering like this, slowly closed.
“I loved only her….”
What does it feel like to not remember even the name of someone you love so passionately, or even the fact that they died?
I could only watch Dad close his eyes without being able to say anything.
