Capture Your Heart

After preparing all of these and putting her daughter to bed, Karin calls her family.

"Dad, we're going home the day after tomorrow."

"Okay."

The next day, the three of them take a flight to London. By the time they arrive at Heathrow Airport, it is merely past 3:00 p.m. To stall for time, she takes Esme and William to Battersea Park.

Standing on the shore by the Thames, she closes her eyes and feels the scent of her home, feeling that a long, long time, has passed ever since she came back here last time.

Esme asks with a smile, "Mom, is this the place where you grew up?"

"Yes."

"It's so beautiful and so much more interesting than Edinburgh."

Karin twists her little ears, "Did you forget what Mommy has told you?"

"Oh, no, it's much more interesting than Zurich."

Karin smiles, feeling incomparably bitter instead.

She takes Esme's hand and stops as she walks to a certain place where a handsome man and a beautiful woman are taking photos. Back then, she had also taken a photo with a man here. Although the picture is still vivid in her mind, the figure of the man in her heart has gradually been blurred.

After they have been walking idly at Battersea Park for more than four hours, it is completely dark. After that, the three of them stop a taxi and go to Karin's home, a home they haven't set foot in for years.

After they arrive at the doorstep of Karin's house, she gets out of the car first. And after looking around, she signals with her eyes that William should follow her and catch up with her with Esme in his arms.

Looking at the familiar shop sign of the dumpling shop in front of her, Karin feels that her nose turns sore and her vision is covered with a layer of water mist. Then she hears someone call, "Karin". And the heartbreaking feeling in her heart is beyond words. She finds that her parents are aged with more wrinkles and more gray hairs. However, they smile less. As they, who rarely smile over the years, exert efforts to put on a smile, Karin can sense some stiffness and strangeness.

"Dad...Mom..."

She jumps over with each hand of hers holding her parents' one hand, bursting out crying. The fact that she owes her parents is a regret that cannot be made up in her life. Back then, she abandoned them in pursuit of her love, only to end up like this. In Karin's opinion, if everything in her life could be predicted and that she could anticipate the outcome, she surely wouldn't have left her parents, stood by, and watched them suffer.

"Okay, come inside."

Jane pats Karin's back as she is in tears. Even Mike gets tears in his eyes.

This is such a bitter scene where nobody feels the joy of reunion but endless self-blame and guilt...
