On the terrace, while having a lively conversation with Sajun, Hyeseok knocked and asked them to come down for a meal.
As Sajun and Taehui went down to the first floor together, Hyeseok briefly showed a surprised expression, and that was all.
Hyeseok knew well from their childhood that they used to cross each other’s terrace.
Seeing her daughter’s hand on the dining chair, Hyeseok opened her eyes wide as if she had seen something she couldn’t bear to watch.
“Why are you wearing two rings?”
“This one is a marriage proposal ring, and this one is a wedding proposal ring.”
When Taehui answered nonchalantly, Hyeseok’s gaze turned to Sajun.
“I proposed casually before going to sleep, and Taehui scolded me, so I did it again.”
Thinking that Sajun would handle it discreetly, Taehui kicked Sajun’s knee under the table and stuck it to him.
Now he even told our mom. What’s wrong with this man’s loose tongue?
When confronted, Sajun shamelessly said that the love of a son-in-law is the mother-in-law’s.
Even if Taehui threatened him by saying that the daughter’s love is with the father-in-law and grandfather, Sajun didn’t flinch at all.
Since both are not scary, Taehui glared at Sajun with an axe-like look.
Although there was a way to scold both of them bickering at the dining table, Hyeseok just looked at them with a pleased expression.
After finishing the meal, Sajun asked Hyeseok.
“Mother, my grandfather wants to set a date for the meeting next weekend. Is that okay?”
“So soon?”
Hyeseok seemed a little surprised, but Taehui laughed and said.
“Grandpa is in a hurry. He says he wants to marry me quickly and bring happiness to the house by marrying me.”
At that, Hyeseok laughed and said the date was fine anytime.
After finishing the meal and even drinking warm tea, Sajun told Taehui to go up first.
When Taehui asked why, Sajun gestured towards the darkened window, indicating Hyeseok staring blankly beyond it.
Telling Taehui to go up and rest since he would take care of it, Sajun grabbed Taehui’s shoulder, who was about to go up again.
“I’ll take care of it, so you go upstairs and rest.”
Taehui, with a bewildered expression, whispered quietly.
“Am I not your daughter?”
“I’m a son-in-law like a son… didn’t my mother say so?”
“When did Sajun become so shameless.”
In the end, Taehui went back upstairs with a laugh. Knowing how much Hyeseok adored and trusted Sajun, Taehui also trusted Sajun that much.
After Taehui disappeared to the upper floor, Sajun came down to the living room.
Hyeseok, who had not noticed Sajun secretly sighing with a tense expression after bringing up the matchmaking discussion, didn’t know anything about it.
“Are you worried about the matchmaking?”
At the softly spoken voice from behind, Hyeseok turned around.
Seeing Sajun standing in the living room, filling it tightly with his tall height and build, Hyeseok looked at him with a very unfamiliar gaze.
The moment I realized that the child who was only tall and skinny had become an adult.
Thinking about it, even in the middle of winter, he was always like a steadfast blue pine tree.
Not particularly affectionate but straightforward, he spoke less but always kept his promises.
Whenever there was a challenging task, he somehow knew and appeared to help, assisting with interior repairs that were difficult to do alone, and even received financial help several times, although it’s embarrassing to think about now.
Of course, the reason my daughter doesn’t know any of these facts is because Sajun asked me to keep it a secret.
“Please don’t let Taehui know.”
When asked for the reason, he replied vaguely that Taehui, who dislikes getting into debt, would cause a commotion if she found out, and also because he didn’t want to bother her.
Maybe that’s why.
Even if our grown-up daughter goes to a peer’s house, we don’t worry but send snacks. Even when we found out that they slept together on one bed by crossing the terrace late at night, we didn’t say anything.
There was only one time when I was worried and crossed the terrace to my daughter’s room at dawn.
What Hyeseok saw then was Taehui sleeping covered in a blanket, and Sajun, who had fallen asleep leaning on the bedhead next to her in that position.
After that day, I never crossed the terrace again.
This child seemed like he wouldn’t harm our daughter. The belief that he would protect her and not do anything wrong had taken root in my heart.
Such a child grew up and became my daughter’s boyfriend, and now he said he would become a son-in-law.
And now he was looking at me with eyes full of concern.
Even though Hyeseok couldn’t say anything for a long time, she calmly waited for him.
“Sigh.”
Hyeseok let out a deep sigh. Although she had longed for the marriage, it was inevitable to worry when her daughter was going to marry Sajun.
“To be honest, I’m scared and worried. Our Taehui is excellent, but I’m not good enough. I’m afraid I’ll be a flaw for our Taehui.”
