“It would have been better if we hadn’t met at all, but since we can’t avoid meeting, as you said.”
“…….”
“Moreover, you heard the testimony of the guy who said your mother caused the traffic accident. Of course, you would have wanted to meet and ask directly.”
Jaeyo, who wiped away the moisture on Chaeyoon’s cheek, bent down and matched his eye level with hers.
Seeing the welling tears in her eyes, he spoke, entwining his gaze with Chaeyoon’s.
“My fault that you couldn’t understand my heart.”
“…….”
“So don’t burden yourself with unnecessary guilt.”
Jaeyo thought that Chaeyoon’s tears would stop when he said this. It was sincere.
However, the tears he thought would stop began to well up again.
It would be fortunate if she cried a little and then stopped, but somehow, it didn’t seem like her crying would easily come to an end.
Not long ago, he might have been at a loss when seeing her like this, but now, for some reason, laughter came out before his heart could be touched.
Perhaps it was because it felt like he would soon pull her into his arms.
And if she cried more here, it seemed like it would be like that…
Wanting to experience the feeling he had felt a little while ago once again, Jaeyo embraced Chaeyoon, gently wiping away only her tears instead of comforting her with open arms.
“I told you not to cry. Why are you crying?”
After saying that, as they stared at each other in silence, Chaeyoon, biting her lips, hugged his neck.
Exactly the reaction he wanted. Jaeyo’s mouth curled up at the corners like he was about to hang on his ears.
Jaeyo made it easier for Chaeyoon to embrace him by slightly lowering his waist, and with a playful tone, he said,
“Look at this, look at this. ‘Ms. High-and-mighty.'”
Then, Chaeyoon’s sniffles, which had been soothing her heart while embracing him, stopped.
Chaeyoon, loosening her grip on his arms, faced Jaeyo.
“To shut me up, crying, no, hey.”
Due to the hitching breath, the words were interrupted, but it was clearly informal language.
The corners of Jaeyo’s mouth, which had heard the tone that could be heard from the bed, became even longer.
It seems that teasing her made her irritated even while crying.
If he poked her further, she would probably glare at him with a fiery look, so Jaeyo teased her more.
“Hey? Wow, even informal language now. It’s really getting out of hand.”
Then, as expected, her sharp gaze suddenly became apparent.
As Jaeyo couldn’t bear it any longer, he kissed Chaeyoon’s eyes while she was glaring at him.
“It sounds good. Keep going.”
What is he talking about?
Seeing Chaeyoon, whose tears were mingled with his teasing, wiped away her tears with her hand and looked at him, Jaeyo held out his hand to her teary eyes and said,
“Tell lies occasionally from now on.”
As if asking what he was talking about, Chaeyoon glared at him, and then Jaeyo kindly added an explanation.
“Throw a tantrum, cry, pout, get angry, do everything alone.”
He added that watching her was very entertaining, and with those words, Chaeyoon’s eyes were filled with strength.
Knowing that it wasn’t sincere, Jaeyo, who continued to tease her, found Chaeyoon more and more adorable. She turned her head lightly, showing no signs of moisture.
When Chaeyoon’s tears seemed to have completely stopped, Jaeyo finally began to comfort her.
“Alright, alright. I won’t play around anymore.”
With a soothing voice, Jaeyo tried to embrace Chaeyoon, but she prevented him as her hand came close.
Seeing Chaeyoon pushing him away and giving him a suspicious look, Jaeyo, with a pleasant smile, said,
“You keep crying, that’s why.”
“…….”
“I’m serious. Trust me.”
After saying that, he kissed her lips briefly several times, and the sharp momentum gradually softened.
Feeling her heart calming down, Chaeyoon withdrew the hand that had been pushing his chest and quietly nestled in Jaeyo’s embrace.
Jaeyo patted Chaeyoon’s back and said,
“Don’t meet with your stepmother secretly from now on.”
Chaeyoon nodded briskly, vigorously agreeing with Jaeyo.
Seeing Chaeyoon’s nod, Jaeyo stopped patting her and grabbed the hem of her T-shirt.
“Since you cried, let’s wash up.”
Whether crying and washing up were related or not, Chaeyoon, who didn’t want to be away from him at the moment, didn’t resist and quietly entrusted her body to him.
Chaeyoon’s body dangled, embraced by Jaeyo’s arms.
Hugging Jaeyo’s neck, Chaeyoon, smelling the fragrance that lingered around his nose, thought,
“I won’t lie again.”
Having relieved the thorn-like emotions in her hand, she now had something else left.
[If you knew that… Jaeyo wouldn’t be by your side right now.]Looking at Jaeyo heading to the bathroom with her in his arms, a sense of unease flashed in her eyes.
[Star icon]Back at home, Jeongwoong was still boiling with anger.
“Did you see Han Jaeyo earlier? Laughing as if saying it’s a mess.”
Just thinking about that moment, it felt like the anger wouldn’t subside for a long time.
“Well, I’ve never really… that guy….”
Continuously brooding over the situation, there was no reaction from Kyunghi.
Jeongwoong’s gaze turned toward Kyunghi.
“What are you doing?”
Whether Jeongwoong was venting or not, Kyunghi, who was lost in her own thoughts, blinked her eyes silently.
“Your father is acting strange all of a sudden.”
“What’s strange?”
When Jeongwoong showed interest, Kyunghi stared straight at him.
