11 Virtues A Hero's Civilian Friend Must Uphold (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 124

[Are you coming home this weekend?]

[Even if you’re tired, you must remember to eat your meals.]

[I’ve already prepared side dishes, so take them with you on the weekend.]

[Actually, Mom, I’ll drop by briefly tomorrow evening. Are you home?]

Na Eun, who had been getting ready to go out with her phone pressed to her ear, chuckled softly at her mother’s never-ending stream of worries.
