"YOU'RE NEOMA, aren't you?"
Neoma smiled and nodded while holding Areum eomma's hands. "It's me, eomma."
She was glad that her eomma recognized her right away.
In this timeline, Neoma was already in her twenties. But right now, she was only thirteen years old. And yet, her eomma recognized her without difficulties.
[Eomma doesn't look surprised, though.]
And she knew why.
If she remembered correctly, Gavin/Won-shik appa told the truth about his real identity to Areum eomma. Moreover, Areum eomma already knew from the beginning that her real "daughter" died, and Neoma's soul used the baby as a vessel.
"What does this mean, baby?" Areum eomma asked, confused. "If you're here in that body, then does it mean…"
Her eomma stopped talking and turned to Nabi who was still in a comatose state.
[Eomma is probably thinking that my old physical body is already dead.]
"She's still alive, eomma."
