Do Jun had a unique captivating power.
Even with just a touch, Hae Joo was engulfed in a feeling difficult to articulate.
Heat rushed in instantly.
It seemed absurd to fuss over merely holding a hand.
‘It’s acting. Think it’s in front of the camera.’
Setting her mind as an actress, she felt considerably at ease.
Hae Joo shortened the distance with Do Jun and walked, just looking ahead.
As it happened, people came out of the opening elevator. Despite the gushing looks, both of them stepped into the empty elevator.
As soon as the door closed, Hae Joo let out a sigh.
“There are no people now.”
She tried to let go of his hand, but Do Jun didn’t budge.
He just stared indifferently at the elevator numbers going up, as if he hadn’t heard anything.

“You can let go of the hand.”
“You touched it first.”
“…!”
“At home.”
The elevator door opened in no time.
The corridor was lined with single patient rooms.
“There’s a reason to go to my father in this state.”
Do Jun, holding Hae Joo’s hand, took a step forward.
Somewhere in the middle of the corridor, he knocked and opened the door to a patient room.
A sophisticated oneroomlike space unfolded with bright lights.
The caretaker brushing President Park’s hair recognized Do Jun and greeted him.
“Did you come?”
“How is my father?”
“He eats well and his condition is good.”
As the caretaker stepped aside, an aged President Park revealed himself compared to before.
For a moment, Hae Joo’s heart was filled with tenderness.
Seeing her, President Park broke into a smile and raised both his arms.
“Our daughterinlaw is here. Caretaker, this child is my daughterinlaw.”
“You must be happy bragging about your daughterinlaw like that.”
Suddenly, Hae Joo felt as if she had been hit on the head.

She was surprised that President Park remembered her as his daughterinlaw despite his dementia.
It was when Hae Joo couldn’t reply instantly.
Do Jun offered a blunt greeting to President Park.
“I’m here, father.”
“Of course, our eldest son Lee Jun is the best. How great is it to have such a patient wife.”
Successive shocks swept through Hae Joo’s head.
However, there was no change in Do Jun’s expression, as if it was always the case.
The caretaker just made way then.
Only then did Do Jun, who had released Hae Joo’s hand, check the state of the storage cabinet and refrigerator.
“Are you eating well?”
“The food here is not good.”
“You shouldn’t just have snacks like last time.”
“Do Jun, why aren’t you showing your face these days?”
“Do Jun is busy these days.”
President Park knew Do Jun as the departed Lee Jun.
Even trapped in his own world, he seemed happier than before, which was somehow melancholic.
Yet, Do Jun dutifully played the role of his deceased brother.

“I…..”
Hae Joo approached President Park. She bowed her head calmly and stood up to greet him.
“Sir, I’m Hae Joo. Do you remember me?”
“I’m not dead yet. Aren’t you my daughterinlaw?”
“Yeyes. The person who came with me is….”
She pointed at Do Jun, wondering if he was going to ask the obvious question to President Park.
But an unexpected answer came.
“Eh? Do Jun, when did you get here?”
“Just now.”
Hae Joo was bewildered.
Now looking at Hae Joo, President Park made a very apologetic expression.
“Did Do Jun treat you well?”
“Huh? Oh, yes. He’s okay.”
Do Jun, who brought a chair, sat Hae Joo down and sat down himself. He crossed his arms and explained President Park’s condition.
“My father’s memory comes and goes.”
During the conversation, Do Jun straightened President Park’s crooked patient clothes.
President Park received his curt touch with a faint smile.
There had been prejudices against Do Jun so far. That he was arrogant, rude, and lost in money and ambition.

But now, he was just an ordinary father’s son and guardian.
“Sir, how long have you been staying here?”
“We moved here early this year when his condition worsened. Just a moment.”
The entrance was equipped with glass so that the inside could be seen.
Only now did she realize that people had gathered to see that Hae Joo had come.
Do Jun got up and nodded at the people, then pulled down the curtain.
Without giving Hae Joo a chance to be embarrassed, President Park opened his mouth with a serious tone.
“By the way, when are you two going to give me a grandchild?”
It was when Do Jun and Hae Joo couldn’t answer and were stuttering.
Someone knocked on the door and they turned around at the same time.
“It’s time for the doctor in charge to make rounds.”
At the caregiver’s words, the two of them got up from their seats. A middleaged doctor appeared, pushing through the crowd in the hallway, and came in with a bright smile.
“The handsome son has come again. And this time with his wife.”
After Hae Joo quietly greeted him, she stepped back. The doctor, who replied with a nod, checked President Park’s complexion first, then began his examination.
“Blood pressure is okay… improving memory is difficult. You know that, right?”
“Yes.”
