“Gotcha!”
“…Mrs. Bae!”
Surprised Sanghwa grabbed Mrs. Bae’s arm, who had grabbed Ted by the collar. No matter how precious her daughter is, encountering a guy who kisses her daughter with the intention of biting her lips is something that should not involve police intervention.
“For now, for now, let go of this hand…”
“Gotcha, finally…! Finally!”
Sanghwa, who was trying to prevent Mrs. Bae from hitting Ted, fearing that Mrs. Bae might hit him, hesitated when she saw Mrs. Bae’s eyes looking at Ted. The twinkling eyes of the excited Mrs. Bae were filled with joy as if she had seized an opportunity that would never come again. Her chest was pounding with excitement, and she even snorted with excitement.
“Mrs. Bae…?”
“But is he a foreigner?”
Mrs. Bae’s gaze, which was scrutinizing Ted, shifted to Sanghwa standing next to her. The look in her eyes seemed to say, ‘I didn’t know, but does my daughter have more ability than I thought?’
“Hello…?”
“Right! You speak Korean? How old are you?”
“Uh…?”
“How old are you?”
“Oh, twenty-one!”
“What?”
“Mom! So, um! That, in Korean age, I’m twenty-three now! I’m twenty-three now!”
“…Is that so small?”
Mrs. Bae, who did not hide her disappointment, released Ted’s collar. Then, she looked at Sanghwa.
“You! Why are you doing things like this to a child!”
“What did I do!”
“If you did, would he have done that! Even if you attack, you would be the one attacking!”
In fact, Sanghwa was the one who attacked first. While Mrs. Bae, who did not say anything and only pursed her lips, was grumbling as she passed by, heading into the house.
“I don’t know. I wondered if I should send him to marriage this year.”
“…”
“Don’t say such things to a child. You should only show him the beauty of Korea. Don’t let him have bad memories. Ugh, he can’t even speak English and he got twisted up so much.”
“It’s not like that!”
“Isn’t it? Just come in roughly.”
Not knowing what she meant by coming in roughly, while Sanghwa was hesitating, Ted, who had been dumbfounded for a moment, followed Mrs. Bae with long strides.
“Changmoni!”
“What, what?”
“Mother-in-law…?”
“What did he say?”
Taking out his phone and hastily searching the dictionary, Ted pronounced it slowly again.
“Changmoni? Mother-in-law?”
“…”
“Ted, older sister!”
“What is this…”
“Did the older sister call Ted older sister?”
Understanding Ted’s words, Mrs. Bae’s gaze turned to Sanghwa again.
In the eyes that clearly did not hide the disappointment, Sanghwa scratched her stiffened neck. Her mind was blank about how to get out of this situation.
Ted had captured Mrs. Bae’s heart. On the day they first met, he followed her home, enjoying boneless seasoned chicken instead of plain chicken feet and doing all sorts of sweet things.
At first, Mrs. Bae was cautious and reserved, but before she knew it, she found herself playing along with Ted’s antics, shouting, “Oh, you’re so good.”
Since that day, Ted’s phone had Mrs. Bae’s number saved with the nickname “Moni.” Mrs. Bae’s phone had Ted’s number saved with the nickname “Raging.”
“What is Raging?”
“What’s that?”
“Why did you save Ted’s number as Raging in mom’s phone?”
“Oh, that. It’s Uri Raging.”
“What’s Uri Raging…?”
“You, don’t you know about these things, young one? Our baby! Ted is our baby!”
Sanghwa’s face turned pale at Mrs. Bae’s nonchalant response.
Moni and Raging, they called each other whenever there was a chance, and Ted visited Sanghwa’s house throughout his stay in Korea, devouring two servings of the meals Mrs. Bae prepared.
“Where did you pick up such a handsome guy? You’re talented.”
“…I didn’t pick him up. What is Ted like?”
“He’s handsome. Even if you look at him now, doesn’t he look like a prince from some country?”
“…Mom, are you okay?”
“What?”
“You said you don’t like young men. Moreover, he’s a foreigner. Is it okay to have such a son-in-law?”
“Whether it’s an old man or a young man, they’re equally bothersome. It’s better to have a young one. Besides, Ted likes you. Look at his gaze. It’s melting. Hey, raise him well and settle down quickly. The more I look, the cuter he gets. Watching him, I feel the taste of life.”
“…And what if he’s a foreigner? It’s even better. There won’t be any in-law living problems.”
“…My parents passed away.”
“Aren’t they here? Then, do you have any siblings?”
“No. Ted is alone.”
“Oh, Uri Raging. I should love him more.”
That’s how Mrs. Bae and Ted became close companions. Sometimes, Sanghwa felt a twinge of sadness. And now, at Cancun Airport, the two who met after a long time were lost in their own world.
Until a few hours ago, it was hard to believe that he was the guy who persistently bit and sucked on her body.
“Let’s go roughly!”
It seemed that Mrs. Bae didn’t hear Sanghwa’s words to stop, as she continued giggling, and Ted, too, bent down, playfully placing his head on Mrs. Bae’s shoulder.
