“[Did you tell your mother?]”
Se Kyung, having seen the message from Tae Jo, leaned back and inclined her body. In the kitchen, the voices of the two people were chattering away.
Jae Hoon was at home due to his afternoon schedule. It was precisely lunchtime, and the manager was filling his stomach with kimchi stew prepared by Jung Ran and steamed rice.
“Not yet. I plan to tell her tonight.”
After sending the reply, another message quickly arrived.
“Is your mother going to Jeju Island tomorrow? Or is she staying a few more days?”
“She’s going down tomorrow. We can’t leave the store empty for too long.”
“Since your mother is here, it would be nice if she could cook something you like since you don’t see each other often.”
“Yes, I’ll do that…”
“What are you up to?”
“Ugh.”
Suddenly hearing a voice, Se Kyung hastily took a deep breath. Her finger happened to be over the send button, and the message was sent to Tae Jo exactly as it was.
“Ah…”
She had unintentionally used informal language.
Se Kyung sighed when she noticed that the “[대쉬]요” was missing from the message.
“Why are you sending a message?”
“Ugh.”
She hastily inhaled at the sudden voice. The voices of the two people in the kitchen were still audible.
Jae Hoon was at home due to his afternoon schedule. It was exactly lunchtime, and the manager was filling his stomach with kimchi stew and freshly steamed rice that Jung Ran had prepared.
“[You haven’t told her yet?]”
Se Kyung leaned back as she read the text from Tae Jo. The two people’s voices were still audible from the kitchen.
“[Not yet. I plan to tell her tonight.]”
After sending the reply, another message quickly followed.

“[Yes, I’ll do that…]”
“What are you doing?”
“Ugh.”
Suddenly hearing a voice, Se Kyung hastily took a deep breath. Her finger was on the send button, and the message was sent to Tae Jo as is.
“Ah…”
She realized she had used informal language unintentionally.
Se Kyung sighed when she saw the message with the missing “[대쉬]요” ending.
“Why are you sending a message?”
“Ugh.”

The meat had been boiled once, and now it was time to prepare the seasoning and cut the vegetables to simmer it again.
Muttering to herself, Jung Ran entered the kitchen and took out the ingredients from the refrigerator. Potatoes, carrots, mushrooms, red peppers, green onions, and more—all of them were the items Se Kyung and she had bought at the market in the morning.
“By the way, what is she trying to talk about?”
Jung Ran mumbled while she sliced mushrooms into cross shapes and chopped the rough parts of the carrots into round pieces.
The image of her daughter’s face, who had said she had something to tell separately in the evening, wouldn’t leave her mind.
The expression on her daughter’s face didn’t seem to indicate pleasant news. Considering that it was difficult to speak in front of the manager, it was likely something challenging to discuss with even closer people.
“Could it be that she fell for some kind of scam?”
Thinking about negative scenarios, she couldn’t help but remember all the bad news she had seen so far.
Maybe someone convinced her to invest in something promising, and she lost all her money…
“Ouch.”
Jung Ran cried out in pain as she experienced a sharp pain. Looking down, she saw red blood oozing from her cut finger on the knife’s blade.
“Ah, what a nuisance…”
She muttered as she brought her injured thumb under the flowing water. She pressed her finger firmly with a kitchen towel, but the bleeding didn’t stop as quickly as she hoped.
“Is there a band-aid or something like that?”
Jung Ran, who had come out to the living room, rummaged through drawers.
Perhaps it was because she had recently moved, or maybe she was too busy. There was no sign of a first-aid kit or anything like that anywhere.
“What if she suddenly gets sick?”
She should buy some medicine before going to Jeju Island.
Unable to find anything in the living room, Jung Ran went into the bedroom. Out of curiosity, she opened the drawer of the dressing table, but there was nothing inside.
Should she wait a bit for the bleeding to stop? Or should she go to the nearest pharmacy?
