“Huh? What are you talking about? The kids said they met in front of the house.”
At my mother’s words, I went into the living room, holding the tornopen instant coffee bag. Between the ladies who were conversing with somewhat puzzled faces, I saw Ji Seo Joon. He was expressionless, but I could tell for sure. His body was rigid from extreme confusion.
“Oh well, I must have seen wrong.”
“Is that so? Well, I hurried in because I left something at home and Ji Seo Joon’s dad kept nagging… but she isn’t the type to be inconspicuous either.”
At times like this, that handsome face was not helpful at all.
“Really? Then wasn’t it some other girl, not Da Yul?”
At my mother’s words, the look in the lady’s eyes turned sparkly.
“Oh my. Is that so? Who is it? Da Yul, did you see?”
The lady asked me, who was stupidly holding the coffee bag in front of the kitchen. I couldn’t answer, I just lowered my creaking head.
“Actually…….”
I was surprised at the words Ji Seo Joon spat out after much thought.
He couldn’t possibly… No way!
I locked eyes with Ji Seo Joon for a moment and forcefully lowered my head.
“Actually, we didn’t meet in front of the house, we met near the studio apartment.”
“What?”
“I was sleeping, but Moon called me and said if she goes home alone, it would be a big problem, so she asked me to go with her….”
That, that guy!
Of course, it’s better to tell the truth than to lie, but was there really no other way?

“Moon Da Yul!”
As soon as Ji Seo Joon finished speaking, my mother swiftly turned her head towards me.
“No, it’s not like that.”
“Not like that? You mean you dragged the kid who was resting? Sigh! I knew it would be like this. How could you accidentally meet Ji Seo Joon in front of the house. I was a fool to believe that.”
Put down the ladle and then talk….
“Why? Did Da Yul do something wrong?”
“That brat must have spent the night out again.”
“He could’ve. Is Da Yul a toddler?”
“Still, one should sleep at home.”
“He seems liberal but he’s quite conservative about this.”
Aunt Yoon Hee plucked an apple and took the kitchen knife from my mother’s hand, handing her a fork instead.
“By the way, Yoon Hee. Did you know that Moon Da Yul and Seo Joon work at the same company?”
“Huh?”
“Ah. Mom. I… I couldn’t find the right timing to say it.”
Ji Seo Joon swiftly took the kitchen knife from Aunt Yoon Hee’s hand and started peeling the remaining apple.
“I, I will finish making the coffee……”
I went back to the kitchen and started making coffee. My back felt hot as I took ice from the fridge and filled a glass.
“Why didn’t you say you work at the same company as Da Yul? Huh?”
“I missed the right timing to say it.”
“That’s why I wanted to have a daughter. You can’t be this blunt.”
“Do you think daughters are all sweet and chirpy? I only found out today too.”
“He is like a rotten clam, shutting his mouth tight and not talking much. Oh my. It’s frustrating.”
Mothers began to list the negatives of each of their son and daughter. I quickly grabbed the coffee and handed it to each of the aunts.
“Have your coffee quickly. Yes? You should drink it while it’s cool.”
My mother rolled her eyes, probably knowing that I was offering coffee to avoid nagging, but fortunately, there was no further nagging.
Aunt and Ji Seo Joon had some fruit and returned home. I escaped my mother’s nagging bomb and went to my room under the pretext of being tired, and fell asleep.
“Did Aunt say anything afterwards?”

She asked about this and that.
I had slept for a while and woke up to a missed call from the tightlipped Ji Seo Joon. I was happy about the missed call and called him back immediately.
“So, what did you say?”
I just vaguely responded.
“Are you at home now?”
In the studio apartment.
“So, Mr. Rotten Clam, what did you have for dinner?”
Did you ask the clam?
We seriously argued, made awkwardly cute remarks, and even heard vomit noises. I had no idea how much time had passed while on the phone with Ji Seo Joon. When my phone’s low battery warning rang, I plugged in the charger and was about to resume the call when I heard my mother’s voice.
“Moon Da Yul! Keep it down. You’ve been on the phone for too long.”
Perhaps due to the influence of my dad who came home a while ago, my mother seemed upset again.
“My mom says I have to hang up. See you tomorrow.”
Yeah. Goodnight.
After hanging up with Ji Seo Joon and checking the time, I realized quite some time had passed. I was on the phone with my boyfriend until my phone got hot. Suddenly feeling ticklish, I chuckled to myself and fell asleep.
Murmur, murmur.
Today, the office atmosphere was unusually noisy, and my concentration inevitably broke. Not all employees were actually whispering, but there was a sense of urgency.
“In Ha, what’s going on at the company? Do we have some highranking visitor?”
“Huh? Why?”
Baek In Ha, who had started handling simple travel matters on her own, paused her paperwork and looked towards me.
“Um, the company seems a bit noisy.”
