Prompt: MERMAY INSPO. Use this song to power your imagination: Bathtub Mermaid by Mili
15 years old. Memories scrambled, Kim Dokja could only remember what he was told. His mother, Lee Sookyung, had killed his father.
Son of a murderer. That was what everyone told him he was.
One day he would end up just like her.
15 years old. Kim Dokja tried to jump out the window. He ended up in the emergency room.
(For a moment, he thought maybe there were eyes on him. Eyes that belonged to someone who actually cared.)
The next day, he was almost guided to a webnovel, Three Ways to Survive in a Ruined World.
The words on the screen spoke to him. The story of a regressor, Yoo Joonghyuk.
He left a comment on that story, the one kind comment among a sea of harsh ones.
28 years old. Ways of Survival became reality.
In front of Kim Dokja was one of the people he owed his life to. Yoo Joonghyuk had become reality along with the novel he had been written into.
Kim Dokja would give him anything, and the thing Yoo Joonghyuk wanted, needed, the most was a happy ending.
Kim Dokja would give that to him.
He would give him everything.
31 years old. Kim Dokja watched the three leave the train.
Yoo Joonghyuk, Han Sooyoung… and Kim Dokja.
The Avatar skill he had taken from the 1863rd regression Han Sooyoung had proven to be useful in the end.
51% of Kim Dokja would act as the Oldest Dream, while 49% would stay with them.
In the end, this was what would make them all happy. This was the most Kim Dokja could give them.
Thousands of years old. Kim Dokja found out that Han Sooyoung was the one to have written Ways of Survival.
Why, he wondered, would someone like you spend so long writing something for someone like me?
He did not know how old he was when he woke up and found out that in the end, they had all decided to give to him as well.
