Having snored so loudly earlier, Soeun’s breathing had now become faint. Taejun, driven by another worry, placed his finger under her nose.

Softly, softly, her warm breath tickled his fingers. She was sleeping soundly.

Taejun let out a long sigh of relief.

He thought it would be a peaceful evening, but it was more complicated than ever.

Did she want to go on that blind date that much?

She could have just ignored what I said, skipped work, and gone secretly. Why did she have to be so stubborn about doing everything? Pushing herself to her limits.

She took unpaid leave for a month to care for her prospective mother-in-law, proving herself to be foolishly devoted. A woman who didn’t know how to live life lightly.

Frustrated at her way of living, I tormented her.

But the more I tormented her, the more relentless she became.

Taejun pulled a chair up to sit in front of Soeun.

She was so light when he carried her, almost suspiciously so, as if she hadn’t eaten. So light that he had no trouble carrying her to the hospital.

He even had a whimsical thought that she might have wings somewhere on her, floating in the air.

Even now, as she slept peacefully, she looked like a motherless baby bird. She seemed as if she might suddenly wake up, spread her wings, and fly away.

As he sat there quietly, her phone vibrated in her bag. Taejun picked up Soeun’s phone left by Chief Song Munkyung. The screen showed ‘Blind Date Park Jinmook’. Taejun ignored it and turned the phone over, but it rang again. This guy was persistent. Feeling he couldn’t let it keep ringing, Taejun answered.

“Yes, this is Hansoeun’s phone.”

[Uh… Where is Hansoeun?]

The man on the other end asked awkwardly.

“Hansoeun is currently… asleep…”

Taejun, finding the man laughable, was about to carelessly respond when he decided to give a more believable answer.

“…She stepped out for a moment.”

[May I ask who I am speaking to?]

“I am Hansoeun’s friend. Should I tell her to call you back?”

[No, it’s fine. I’d rather you pass a message to her.]

“Go ahead.”

[Well… I need to apologize. I hastily arranged a blind date after breaking up with my girlfriend, but I ended up meeting my ex again yesterday.]

Taejun had expected a call to confirm the blind date, but it was the opposite.

“Oh, is that so.”

Taejun’s voice softened considerably.

[So, please tell Hansoeun I can’t make it to the blind date. I’m really sorry.]

“Understood. I’ll pass on the message.”

[Thank you. I’ll hang up now.]

The blind date guy quickly conveyed his message and hung up.

It was a relief he answered the call. If he hadn’t, he would have been anxious.

Taejun placed the phone near Soeun and returned to his original position.

Unaware of this complicated situation, the unconscious woman seemed like a princess from a fairy tale.

Frustrated at her way of living, I tormented her.

But the more I saw her striving so hard, the more I wanted to keep watching her.

No, from the beginning, she was the woman I wanted to have. That’s why I contributed to her breakup and made her life difficult.
Despite having snored so loudly earlier, Soeun’s breathing had become quieter. Taejun, following another surge of worry, put his finger under her nose to check.

Gently, gently, her warm breath tickled his fingers. She was sound asleep.

Taejun, too, let out a long, relieved sigh.

He thought it would be a peaceful evening, but it was more complicated than ever.

Did she really want to go on that blind date that much?

She could have just ignored me, skipped the work, and gone secretly. Why did she insist on doing both things so stubbornly? Pushing herself to the limit.

She took unpaid leave for a month to care for her future mother-in-law, showing herself to be foolishly devoted. A woman who didn’t know how to take it easy in life.

I tormented her because I was frustrated with how she lived.

But the more I tormented her, the more relentless she became.

Taejun pulled a chair to sit in front of Soeun.

She was so light when he carried her, almost suspiciously so, as if she hadn’t eaten. It hadn’t been hard to carry her to the hospital because she was so light.

He even whimsically thought she might have wings hidden somewhere, floating in the air.

Even now, as she slept peacefully, she looked like a motherless baby bird. It seemed as though she might suddenly wake up, spread her wings, and fly away.
