The man who picked up ten 10,000 won bills vanished without a sound, with even the light from the phone disappearing.
All that remained were the shattered pieces of the side mirror and silence.
Hyeju, who was surprised, felt more bewildered by Juwon’s aggressive actions than grateful for the situation being resolved.
“There was no need to go this far.”
Juwon had clearly shot an arrow at the man who underestimated Hyeju, intending to give him a lesson. However, that arrow ended up piercing Hyeju’s heart.
His words about needing someone to vent his anger on felt like they were directed at her. Hyeju felt tears welling up.
“Did you feel better after venting? Does breaking the side mirror make you feel relieved?”
Juwon’s eyebrows furrowed at her retort.
“What else is there to complain about?”
“You said you needed someone to vent your anger on. Why did you get so angry in the first place? Did I do something wrong? I admit that it was uncomfortable to hear you say you were shaken. But was it necessary to go this far over a few words?”
“Oh Hyeju.”
“I thought it was because we had a disagreement and you didn’t want to see me, but the more I think about it, it’s just too much! Not only did you reveal our personal matters, but you also didn’t contact me all day yesterday, and today you’re pretending like you don’t even know me!”
Am I being scolded right now?
It wasn’t an action done to seek praise, but it was still something I did for you.
But I didn’t expect this kind of reaction.
“You were like that earlier too. It’s not like I purposely spent time with Seungwon, you know? I was uncomfortable too. But as soon as we saw each other, your expression hardened. We can’t avoid each other when we work at the same company, so what exactly do you want me to do?”
With a barrage of complaints pouring out, Juwon tasted defeat.
This wasn’t what I intended. I just wanted to apologize, but I missed the timing. I wanted to say sorry for being too sensitive, for making a fuss over nothing.
When I saw Hyeju, who calmly looked out the window, I couldn’t bring myself to speak.
“I’ve shown you quite a gentlemanly side so far.”
Juwon stared at Hyeju with a strong gaze.
“Being your older brother, your representative, and your friend’s older brother. I couldn’t act rude in such roles, so I pretended to be kind.”
What is this? Is it a new form of declaration?
Hesitant, Hyeju glared at Juwon, igniting her fighting spirit. If he had caught a fish, he seemed determined to face the consequences if he stopped pretending to be kind.
But Juwon’s following words were unexpected.
“But, Oh Hyeju, I’m just a man to you.”
“…So?”
“I get upset, jealous, and petty with just a few words. I pretended not to know the fact that I clearly knew, in case I end up leaving.”
After a brief pause, Juwon continued speaking.
“I knew that Seungwon liked you.”
Thud. Hyeju’s heart dropped.
“You knew? When did you…?”
“I wonder how it made me feel when I heard those words.”
Juwon’s pupils flickered in the light.
“Oh…”
Hyeju finally understood Juwon’s sensitive reaction.
He was the only one who knew about Hyeju’s feelings for Seungwon. How did he feel when he found out about Seungwon’s feelings for Hyeju?
There might have been an invisible thread connecting the two. It’s a foolish imagination that they might have been connected if it weren’t for me. A filthy feeling that seemed to tear apart the affectionate bond between the two.
Large hands wrapped around Hyeju’s shoulders.
“Nothing about you is insignificant. The word ‘shaken,’ yes, just that one word.”
A low voice struck Hyeju heavily.
“That one word felt like a declaration. It felt like you were going to leave forever.”
“Don’t you have that much trust in me?”
“It’s not that I don’t trust you. It’s the time you spent with Seungwon that scares me.”
Hyeju suddenly felt deeply sorry.
She had never considered Juwon’s emotions for even a moment and had been only concerned about her own feelings. Now she clearly understood what the word ‘shaken’ meant to Juwon.
“If I had known this would happen, I would have reached out my hand first.”
In the time wasted on a pointless pride fight, the wounds festered, and both of them suffered.
“Don’t look at me like that. It’s not because it seems like there’s nothing there.”
Juwon looked at Hyeju with a remorseful expression.
“I’m crazy about you. I was hoping to be crazy in a good way, but it didn’t work out as planned.”
He ran his hand through his hair and spoke the words that had been lingering on his lips for two days.
“I’m sorry. Sorry for being sensitive about something so trivial. I’ll reflect on it. I’m already reflecting.”
“Then, put your hands up.”
“For real?”
“Yeah, for real.”
Juwon raised both arms without hesitation.
“I raised them.”
If Oh Hyeju were to peel back the sky, she would have found countless stars.
Having a girlfriend who would create a fuss over such a trivial matter was a type he had never imagined, but it had its own fiery charm…
“Smack.”

When Yu Shu was diagnosed with pregnancy, Yan Jin stared at his belly for a long time.
Covering his stomach, he muttered gloomily, “If you don’t like it, I’ll go get an abortion.”
“It’s not that I don’t like it.” Yan Jin hugged Yu Shu and said softly, “I just feel like I’m not human.”
Yu Shu comforted Yan Jin, “I was already an adult when we got together.”
Yan Jin hesitated, “But you won’t be of legal marriageable age even after giving birth to the child.”
At the same time, a flood of bullet comments appeared in the live streaming room that the two couldn’t see.
[Although it’s inappropriate, I also want a young and handsome boyfriend to have my child.]
