Then, putting the fruit basket in the nearby drawer, she took a chair and sat next to Sanha.
“Didn’t you come to the café today? I missed the grapefruit ade.”
“Right.”
“That’s understandable. Didn’t you miss seeing Kkachi?”
“I didn’t miss it at all.”
Summer hit Sanha’s arm.
“Ouch. Why did you hit me?”
“Ugly mouth.”
Looking at the pouting Summer, Sanha said, seeming unjustly treated, “Can’t I speak with my own mouth?”
“I guess not.”
Summer readily agreed, nodding her head.
“But why didn’t you ask?”
“Ask what?”
“About Hae-il’s illness or why things turned out like this. You must be curious.”
“It might be difficult to answer.”
Sanha said, “Hae-il had a traffic accident. The official diagnosis is vegetative state. He’s been like this for six years now.”
“…I see.”
“This guy doesn’t even think about waking up. But I believe he will definitely get up.”
“That’s right. It will happen. Hae-il will definitely wake up.”
“Really, it’s hilarious.”
“What is?”
Summer looked at Sanha.
“Most people who know Hae-il say he’s dead, but the new magpie says he will wake up.”
“He will wake up, for sure.”
“How can you be so sure?”
Smiling broadly, Summer said, “I don’t think anything is stronger than a person’s wish. Can I hold Hae-il’s hand?”
Sanha nodded.
Summer gently held his limp hand.
He resembled Dad lying on the bed a lot.
That made her feel more attached.
She could feel his warm body temperature.
“Sanha is right. Hae-il didn’t go anywhere. He’s here.”
“What?”
“Hae-il also wants to wake up quickly, but it seems a bit difficult. Still, he’s working hard. It’s natural when a friend is waiting eagerly. I can see it in my eyes.”
Like our Dad.
Sanha chuckled softly.
“Really. Look at this effort in his eyebrows. Right, Hae-il?”
He didn’t respond.
But, leaning in and placing her ear close, Summer said, “The magpie says it’s right.”
“Hae-il said that?”
“Yes. And Sanha, you quickly move to the lovely magpie.”
Sanha looked down at Hae-il and said, “Sorry, Hae-il. Kkachi is a bit restless.”
“Really. And I guarantee that from today, Hae-il is in for good luck.”
“What?”
“I came here.”
Summer shrugged.
“So what?”
“Well, you know? If a magpie cries, good news comes.”
“Not a welcome guest?”
“That’s true, but good news is coming. But the magpie isn’t crying, and I came here personally. Now, Hae-il will wake up soon.”
Sanha laughed again.
“It’s not a joke. When I was young, the grandmothers in the neighborhood all said that to me. It’s really a face with lots of luck. Whether that saying is true or not, I picked up money even when I fell, and I picked up money floating down while swimming in the sea.”
“Really?”
“That’s right. Of course, half of that money was donated to charity, and the other half was spent on tteokbokki. Look, I have the appearance of complete good fortune. Good fortune. Any man I have will hit the jackpot.”
Looking at the sparkling-eyed Summer, Sanha laughed again.
“What? Don’t you believe me?”
He barely held back his laughter and said, “No. I believe you.”
Sanha chuckled.
Summer, who had been pouting for a moment, stood up.
She unwrapped the plastic from the basket and took out strawberries.
“I don’t care.”
“Don’t drink kimchi soup. Hae-il will give you this.”
Summer washed the biggest and freshest strawberry and brought it to Hae-il’s nose.
The refreshing aroma quickly spread around.
“What are you doing now?”
“Well, Hae-il will eat strawberries.”
Summer shook the strawberries in front of Hae-il’s nose, saying this.
“I read a book before, and it said that the sense of smell is much more sensitive than taste.”
“Oh, really?”
“Yes. Olfactory cells regenerate every 30 days continuously. And this olfactory system can send signals not only to the brain’s areas but also directly to emotional and memory areas. Hae-il will definitely smell this strawberry scent and recall spring. Then he can reminisce about the joyful memories of enjoying spring with Sanha. That would make him even more eager to get up, right?”
Sanha chuckled.
“Do I sound like I’m talking nonsense right now?”
“No. Believe me.”
“Is that so?”
“Yeah. And Hae-il loves strawberries the most among fruits.”
Smiling widely, Summer replied, “Fortunately.”
“The magpie is good at taking pictures.”
“That’s right.”
While saying this, Summer suddenly poked Sanha’s bicep with her left index finger.
“Why?”
“No, just checking if mine is good.”
“When did this arm become a magpie’s?”
“Again, we said we’re not like that, right?”
Summer poked even harder with her index finger.
Wincing in pain, Sanha moved away.
“Oh, why do you keep poking me?”
“Because you keep saying ugly things.”
Sanha, who was slightly frowning, swept his arm and said, “Violent magpie.”
When Summer pointed her index finger and stopped at her middle finger, Sanha quickly turned his head and said, “No. Pretty magpie. Pretty magpie.”
“Is that so?”
“Of course. A very pretty and lovely magpie.”
At that, Summer laughed heartily.
“Of course!”
Lying on her bed, Sofia groaned every time she moved.
After doing all those dishes alone yesterday, including the aftermath, there wasn’t a part of her body that wasn’t sore.
At that moment, the door opened, and Haeun came in.
It seemed she was on the way back after leaving work early again.
“Unnie, they said it was chaos yesterday?”
“What?”
“You were humiliated in front of your friends, and on top of that, they said you did all the cleanup after the gathering. Is that true?”
Sofia didn’t respond.
“Really? Unnie has no pride? Like a maid.”
“Who said I wanted to do it? We said we wouldn’t do that, right?”
While Sofia was flipping things inside out, Haeun, who came to comfort her or make fun of her, went back outside.
Already irritated to the point of feeling like she would die, even her sister had turned her insides upside down.
At that moment, her phone rang a short melody.
She moved her heavy arm to check the message.
It was from a group chat with her friends.
“I thought Sofia was a human being, but she turns out to be a freeloader.”
Sofia’s hand checking the message trembled.
“Her husband got demoted from the CEO to a team leader this time. Even her sister has been demoted to an ordinary employee.”
“All because she messed with Kang Juhwa’s granddaughter. I confirmed everything.”
“Is she pretending to be a rich family’s daughter-in-law on such a topic? Is Sofia really insane?”
“If you look closely, she’s a leech attached to her sister-in-law’s house.”
She threw her phone away.
She was so angry that she felt like her whole body was about to explode.
“… I won’t stay still. Jung Yeoreum, you’ll never stay still!”
Hitting the bed violently with her fists, Sofia screamed.

Short scene 2:

Before he could speak, Feng Bai Su suddenly bent down and bit his cheek.
