“Could it be that someone got their fortune told and acted like this?”
Yeon-ji pretended to drink coffee and looked at Sam-seop.
Even when he was silent, his appearance was fierce, and with eyes that seemed to have been torn open, he glanced around the cafe as if he had just won a vendetta. Customers who met his eyes avoided them and turned their heads.
When she was young, Sam-seop’s appearance like that seemed cool, but now it was embarrassing. It wasn’t because people found him scary, but because she learned that people avoided him not out of fear, but simply because they didn’t want to get involved.
Sam-seop with a rough and tough appearance wasn’t particularly clever. So, when Yeon-ji suddenly appeared after several years, pretending to be a coincidence, he couldn’t help but be suspicious.
“Since when have you not been Seo Yeon-ji?”
“What are you talking about?”
“Why have there been no updates for several years and suddenly you appear?”
In response to Yeon-ji’s questioning, Sam-seop smiled, showing his teeth.
“Curious about why I had no news for several years?”
“What were you doing?”
“I went to school, kid. Even if I wanted to see you, I couldn’t come because I was confined.”
At the expression “went to school,” Yeon-ji swallowed dry saliva.
When her pupils shook, Sam-seop chuckled again.
“Well, worried? Don’t worry about benevolence. I’ve aged enough to live comfortably. There’s a good person within reach, so I’m going to be loyal to that person.”
“A good person?”
Yeon-ji asked with a squeezed brow.
Although Sam-seop said it was a good person, it didn’t sound that way to her at all. She was strongly convinced that the so-called good person Sam-seop mentioned would be someone who followed her like this.
Who on earth could it be?
Yeon-ji opened her mouth with a curious expression.
“Who is this good person… exactly?”
“Enough, stop. Why ask me? Anyway, this person is different from us from the start.”
No matter how remarkable the person he met was, Sam-seop was busy beating around the bush.
Meanwhile, Yeon-ji tried to deduce who this person could be.
Considering how Sam-seop expressed the person as a good one, it was certain that this person had wealth and power. Moreover, since he mentioned that this person was different from the start, it was someone whose name she would recognize just by hearing it.
“How did you meet this person?”
“He came looking for me because he needed me.”
“Really?”
“Look at your eyes rolling. Even if you ask who it is, I won’t tell you. Hurry up and pay 1 billion won.”
“I’ll pay.”
“When?”
“Is such a large sum of money available in a day or two? I also have to meet people to get that money, but I can’t meet them because my brother is sticking around like this.”
Yeon-ji said with irritation.
“Why blame me? Honestly, with me around, you should think of me as your bodyguard. It’s actually good for you.”
“That’s only useful for someone who can stomach it.”
Even if she said it, it would only hurt her pride, Yeon-ji grumbled with her fists clenched.
Bringing Sam-seop to meet Hyuk-joo would only cause unnecessary misunderstandings.
Associating herself with Sam-seop, who looked bad in quality, would make her appear strange.
If that happens, there will be suspicions about the relationship between herself and Sam-seop, and it’s only a matter of time before her hidden past is revealed to Hyuk-joo.
To Hyuk-joo, Seo Yeon-ji had to be pitiful, someone whose heart he felt for. It was like that before, it’s like that now, and it had to be that way in the future.
‘How do I get rid of that kid?’
Yeon-ji glanced briefly at Sam-seop, who was sitting in front of her again, sipping her coffee.
She had to somehow break up with Sam-seop before meeting Hyuk-joo.
She rolled her head while chewing on the straw with her front teeth.
Until yesterday, the sky looked hazy due to fine dust. Fortunately, it rained early in the morning, and the air cleared of fine dust was so clear that it could be seen for a very long distance.
She took a plane to spend Mom’s 49th day.
It was a flight that took less than an hour. Instead of holding Hyuk-joo’s hand and briefly closing her eyes, Eun-soo fixed her gaze on the scenery outside the window.
White clouds were rising like cotton candy, scattered all over the sky.
Mom must be somewhere in those clouds.
Thinking like that, Eun-soo looked at the endless sea of clouds.
“It might sound like a childish thought.”
Hyuk-joo whispered in a small voice as if he was telling a secret.
“Maybe your late mother and my mother-in-law are together, thinking such a thought.”
“That could be possible.”
Eun-soo nodded.
When she was undergoing treatment, her mother and Hyuk-joo’s mother-in-law exchanged greetings a few times. Since they knew each other’s faces, wouldn’t they have met each other? Looking at their son and daughter who became a couple, they might have talked about how they were in a remarkable relationship.
“What do you think they would say when they see us?”
“Well, they would probably say, ‘Live happily.'”
