Without hesitation, Eun Soo nodded at Hwang In Woo’s proposal.
She had to eat dinner anyway if she planned to stay overnight at the hospital.
“Is kalguksu okay?”
“Yes.”
“There’s a place near the back door of the hospital that makes good kalguksu. Shall we go there?”
“Yes.”
“It’s a bit shabby, is that okay?”
Scratching the back of his head with a sheepish smile, In Woo had suggested kalguksu for dinner.
“That’s fine.”
“I thought you wouldn’t want to eat at a place like that. I was a bit nervous even asking.”
“A place like that? I don’t really mind about food, I eat well.”
Eun Soo smiled as if it was nothing.
“Let’s go.”
“Okay.”
Eun Soo followed In Woo, who was the first to leave the hospital room. She asked the nurse in charge of the room to take care of her mother while she went to dinner.
“Go down to the first floor first and wait for me.”
“Okay. Got it.”
In Woo got off at the middle floor. He seemed to have some remaining work to do.
Eun Soo took the elevator alone down to the first floor.
Outside, it was still raining.
Realizing belatedly that she didn’t have an umbrella, Eun Soo glanced at the convenience store on the first floor in the distance. But there were no umbrellas for sale at the store.
Wondering what to do, she stared blankly at the falling rain.
Before long, she faintly heard footsteps approaching the lobby and turned her head. She saw In Woo, walking with a thick padded jacket and a long umbrella.
As In Woo approached Eun Soo, he handed her the padded jacket.
“Put this on.”
“…Thank you.”
Eun Soo belatedly realized that she hadn’t worn a coat. After all, the coat she wore earlier was all she had. She wondered how ridiculous she would have looked in a tracksuit with a coat on.
“Let’s share the umbrella.”
The umbrella in his hand was large enough for two people to share.
“Did I come out too defenseless?”
“Yes. You’ll catch a cold if you go around like that.”
“I didn’t think I’d have to leave the hospital room…”
“I suggested we go out, so I’m lending you clothes and sharing my umbrella.”
“Thank you.”
Eun Soo said, looking at Hwang In Woo, who shrugged his shoulders.
Whether when he was young or now, he was a very affectionate and warm person. Plus, he was meticulous.
If people had a color, his would undoubtedly be the warm color of spring.
They walked side by side for about 10 minutes.
A sign with the word ‘Kalguksu’ written in blue letters on a white background came into view.
It felt less shabby and more like a store that had stood its ground for a long time.
It reminded her of the times when it rained, and she and her mother would eat kalguksu or sujebi at places like this.
Thinking of the warm soup she ate back then, the corners of Eun Soo’s mouth unknowingly lifted.
“It must be delicious.”
Eun Soo muttered softly.
“Huh?”
In Woo, who was opening the door of the shop, asked if he had heard her faint voice.
“I haven’t eaten kalguksu in a long time, so my mouth is already watering.”
“Do you want me to order extra noodles?”
“No.”
Eun Soo waved her hand.
As they entered the shop, the savory smell of anchovy broth brushed against their noses. All the tables in the small shop were occupied by customers.
All of them were office workers, looking to have a simple meal on a rainy evening.
Eun Soo lifted her head to look at the menu. The place only sold two items: kalguksu and kimbap.
“Do you want to eat kimbap too?”
“No, I’m okay.”
“Then I’ll have to eat two rolls of kimbap by myself.”
As In Woo caught the eye of the lady in the kitchen, he raised his hand.
“Boss, we’ll have two bowls of kalguksu and two rolls of kimbap.”
Perhaps he was a regular customer, the boss nodded with a smile. Then she seemed to scrutinize Eun Soo standing next to him and promptly started to boil the kalguksu noodles in hot water.
As soon as a table was free, In Woo told Eun Soo to sit down first. He fumbled to clear the bowls left by the previous customers and walked to the kitchen.
He picked up a rag after setting down the bowls and wiped the table.
Eun Soo let out a small laugh, watching In Woo skillfully clean the table.
“Why are you laughing all of a sudden?”
“It seems like you haven’t changed at all.”
“You think I haven’t changed?”
As In Woo sat down, Eun Soo poured him a glass of water.
“You were good at cleaning tables even when we were young.”
“That’s because you were so messy when you ate that I had to clean up after you.”
“Me?”
Eun Soo asked with a surprised face. Then In Woo burst into laughter.
“Why are you looking so shocked? It’s natural for a child to spill food while eating. Moreover, wouldn’t it be more strange if you ate properly with an IV needle in your right hand?”
“…I’m just surprised to hear that I spilled food. I didn’t think I was that clumsy.”
Eun Soo tucked a strand of loose hair behind her ear and pouted slightly.
“Eun Soo.”
“Hmm?”
At the sound of her name called in a surprisingly serious tone, Eun Soo quietly looked at In Woo.
“Just now, your expression.”
“My expression?”

Short scene 2:
Wei Jing Mo stared intently at Feng Bai Su who was about to go out, wanting to say, “Be careful on the road.”
Before he could speak, Feng Bai Su suddenly bent down and bit his cheek.
Her peach blossom eyes were full of disdain: “Tsk! You’re so clingy!”
Wei Jing Mo: “…”
