After buying the shoes, Mom finally let all the tears she had been holding back pour out," evoking deep sorrow.

She continued, "When he said, 'Try these on, son, and come back if they don't fit so we can exchange them,' my heart felt as though it was tearing apart.

She added, "I never thought the day I should have been most joyful would become the saddest day."

She then added, "My child Ji-han, whom I love as much as the sky and miss as much as the earth, please come try on the birthday shoes I left by the front door. Mom will buy even better shoes next year and wait for you. Happy birthday. I love you. I miss you so much. My child."
