Splash.
The evening when Exchange met Hyojin.
After work, Exchange went to a swimming pool where Seungyul was receiving swimming lessons.
Since it was winter break and Seungyul didn’t go to school, he was enjoying a pleasant time with David, his swimming instructor, without any worries or concerns.
“Dad!”
When Exchange spotted Seungyul swimming towards him, he easily bent his knees and sat down, making it easier to talk.
“Do you want to have a race with me?”
With quite some confidence, Seungyul suggested a match first, which was cute, and Exchange couldn’t help but laugh.
“Then, do you want to start first? I’ll start when you’re about halfway there.”

“No, that’s not fair.”
“How about we start together?”
“Of course.”
Although the race was impossible from the beginning, Exchange nodded in agreement, considering the child’s pride.
“Okay. But promise not to cry if you lose.”
“Do I have to treat Dad the same way?”
Seungyul’s eyes, standing side by side with Exchange in swimsuits at the starting line, were fierce, as if he had participated in the Olympics.
Exchange, also tensed up, felt his muscles tighten all over his body.
“Get ready. Beep!”
At the sound of David’s whistle, Seungyul jumped into the swimming pool, splashing forcefully.

Hearing the sharp noise that seemed to tear through his eardrums, Exchange, wobbling, lost balance, causing a giant whirlpool, and he splashed into the water with a splash.
“Director, are you okay?”
Team Leader Nam, who sensed something strange from a distance, ran over, shaking the wet floor of the swimming pool.
Exchange would probably say it’s nothing, but Team Leader Nam couldn’t overlook it any longer.
“I’ll contact Dr. Lee Sangmyeong.”
After parting ways with Teacher Bong, not eating on time, and only drinking alcohol and coffee, they were worried.
“It’s okay. I think it’s just because I swam after a long time.”
The vision blurred again and then cleared up. Seeing Seungyul, who had reached halfway, Exchange, belatedly, dived into the water.
Seungyul, who was too concentrated to know what had happened, reached the goal first. Leaning on the lane with his elbows, he looked around.
‘Oh? Where’s Dad?’

He naturally thought Exchange would come first and be waiting.
Looking back and seeing Exchange, whose figure was revealed underwater, Seungyul couldn’t believe it.
“Wow, did I really beat Dad here?”
Even though he started late, Exchange, who set the condition of starting together, felt like he underestimated Seungyul, and it was a feeling of a big embarrassment.
“Yeah, you won. Well, do you want a gift?”
Although he lost, watching his son’s improved swimming skills was a great joy for Exchange.
“It’s okay.”
Shrugging his shoulders modestly, Seungyul felt a warm touch on top of his head.
“Why? Dad wants to give you a gift.”
Especially with Christmas approaching.

Seeing Seungyul, who shyly drew lines on both cheeks and shook his head, Exchange was even more puzzled.
Actually, I wished to beat Dad just once.
In studying. In love.
I thought it was an insurmountable wall.
Finally having something I could do better than Dad, Seungyul felt like his chest was about to burst with joy.
“Yul, Dad actually has something to say to you.”
“What is it?”
Seeing Seungyul with a towel like a cape on his head, Exchange felt he could guess what his son was thinking.
“Would it be okay to go study in England?”
“What?”

Surprised, Seungyul’s enlarged pupils wobbled as he looked at Exchange.
Not that he’s getting married to Teacher, right?
“I originally planned to go to England when I became a third grader. You can think of it as being a bit faster.”
“Why? Is it because I opposed you marrying Teacher, so you’re sending me to England?”
“Ha, no way.”
He anticipated it, but maybe the level of trust in himself was only this much.
Exchange sighed heavily with self-reproach.
“So, what’s the sudden reason for sending me to England?”
Note: The translation provided below may not capture the tone or nuance perfectly, as some elements of expression can be context-dependent.
Did I disturb you by marrying the teacher and living together in the same house?
Looking at the downcast Seungyul, Exchange opened his heavy lips.

“Yul, Dad and the teacher decided not to get married.”
Huh. His eyes widened even more than when he was told to go to England.
“Why? Did you break up because of me?”
I never thought that they would break up just because I opposed it.
“It’s not because of Yul. It’s because Dad lost confidence in living happily after marrying the teacher.”
“Then were you lying?”
He said he was on vacation for me. Was it just like last time, driving me away after breaking up with Dad?
I don’t know that either.
Seungyul’s fists clenched.
“Sorry. I tried to be honest, but I was afraid you’d be upset…….”

As expected, the child seemed angry, and for a while, he didn’t say anything, clenching and unclenching his fists.

“I’ve given birth to two children for you, yet you still think about him.
Was I nothing but his substitute to you from beginning to end?”
