Consume Me, In Your Darkness
Episode 1
When the doctor pushed an injection, I trembled. The doctor, casting a sidelong glance at me, added.
Doctor
This time you managed to survive for a while. Please be careful next time.
I gave him a kind smile and added.
Eshal
Yes, I'll be more careful next time.
Suddenly, my dad burst into the room and hugged me.
Zoe
What's the matter with my child? Is she all right, doctor?
I assured him in my normal manner.
Zoe
Why did you go out alone, even though I have forbidden you so many times?
Dad said, fiercely to me, and I could sense his rage. Yes, it's normal for me now. Even though I'll be 19 in a few months, my dad will not let me go anywhere alone.
Eshal
I'm sorry, it won't happen again.
A while ago, I had an accident due to carelessness.
Zoe
Doctor, is she all right?
Doctor
Your daughter is OK now, Mr. Zoe.
Zoe
Can I take her home now?
Episode 2
Doctor
You surely can, Mr. Zoe. She is in perfect health.
I'm grateful to the doctor for saving me from my dad this time. Despite the fact that he was our family doctor, I smiled and thanked him graciously.
After signing all of the paperwork, my dad took me with him. I looked at him as he was driving and said,
He didn't respond, he had a habit of ignoring my statements.
I sincerely apologized to him.
But, no, Dad didn't say anything while driving.
He went straight to his room when he got home. Oh, my goodness, I'm doomed. He's furious with me, and I know he's not going to eat tonight. I inhaled deeply and walked into the kitchen to prepare his favorite meal.
You can't change my fate, Dad. Although it will occur, your daughter has faith in God. He will always save your daughter, just as He did before.
I made his favorite ramen and knocked on his door, but there was no response as usual.
I opened the door and sat alongside him, who was working on his laptop.
Eshal
What's the matter, Dad? Why are you behaving in this way?
Eshal
You have no choice but to accept my fate.
I told him emphatically. As soon as he heard me, he put down his laptop.
Zoe
Did you see her again?
Episode 3
I just wanted to tell him the truth, so I said
Eshal
Dad, it's natural for me.
He should've been aware of everything. He has had no choice but to accept everything.
Eshal
Dad, I'm used to it.
Eshal
and it's only a burned body.
Yes, it's normal for me. It's normal for me now after that accident.
I see a burned body and feel compelled to approach her. I placed my palm on the back of his hand.
Zoe
I'm sorry, girl. I couldn't give you a wonderful childhood. It also bothers me at times.
I know, dad, she always haunts you. But, we must forget about her and her memories.
Eshal
She's gone, Dad. She will not come back to our lives.
Dad forced a smile on his face. But I simply told him
Eshal
Can we have something to eat right now? I'm famished.
He burst out laughing and offered me his first bite of ramen. After we had our dinner, we played games and watched a movie.
While watching a movie, he fell asleep on the couch, and I was staring at him.
I know you're worried about me, Dad. But your daughter is no longer terrified of it.
I wrapped a blanket around Dad and sat down on the other couch.
