Seolwoojin finally understood why Sooyoung said there would be no such thing. However, it didn’t make sense. A visually impaired author? Does that even make sense?

Upon hearing the manager’s explanation that they employed Kim Sooyoung because she is a visually impaired writer, Yeonho couldn’t respond properly and hung up the phone.

After hanging up, he realized that no matter how disabled and a writer, he was still a man, and a young one at that. What’s more, if he was just pitying Sooyoung and holding onto her without reason…!

However, saying such things made him feel like a terrible person. There should be some fairness in the conditions for it to be a game.

Yeonho stood in that spot for a long time, having parked the car.

????????????

Having washed the dishes and overturned plates, he also cleaned the empty lunch boxes and stacked them neatly in one place.

When the kitchen seemed somewhat clean, Sooyoung cautiously went out to the living room.

Earlier, after ending the phone call with Yeonho, Wujin entered the room without any explanation.

It was quite surprising that he directly confessed with his own mouth that he was visually impaired.

For a person who is conscious of people’s gazes and is reluctant to go outside, why would he say such things to someone he doesn’t know?

Wujin sat in front of the desk, seemingly lost in thought. The voice of Soo Sen-banji was cheerful. He seemed like a person with no worries in life.

It was unbearable to be taken away like a protector of Kim Sooyoung, as if taking a young woman on unrelated topics without even being close.

When she mentioned the dilemma of what name to tell her mother, he was tempted to suggest “manager” if being a housemaid was a problem.

Frankly, she was doing too many acts that went beyond being a housemaid. Moreover, calling her a housemaid didn’t match her lack of housekeeping skills.

It seemed better to say “manager” so that he could confidently keep her by his side.

So, he did say she was a manager… but why did he say he couldn’t see?

Was it because of the word “gaslighting”? It was a faint sound, but it seemed like he found something to justify it in response to the question of whether she was being gaslighted.

Anyway, since meeting Kim Sooyoung, his daily life has become so diverse that it’s dizzying. New things happened every day. Is this a good thing or a bad thing?

At that moment, the woman who made her daily life so diverse made a tapping sound with her footsteps.

She always makes that noise like that at the door without knocking. Why is that? Is it because she thinks she shouldn’t knock on the door?

Wujin got up from his seat and opened the door. Soon, a pleasant low sound reached his ears.

“When are we going for a walk?”
Oh, a walk. Last time when I went out with her, the children’s laughter and the wind were pleasant. Usually, unfamiliar stimuli came off as discomforting, but maybe because she was there, it wasn’t unpleasant at all.

Instead, it felt like something piercing through the chest? However, he felt somewhat uncomfortable at the thought of revealing such feelings, as it might lead to dragging her outside.

In response to his expression, Sooyoung spoke with a cautious voice.

“Seol Woojin said 10 minutes. Go to the lobby in 10 minutes. You haven’t forgotten, right?”

“…I haven’t forgotten.”

Although he knew the phone was on the desk, he slowly closed the door. He didn’t feel the need to set an alarm.

The way to the lobby was still familiar. Passing through the lobby to the entrance was also fine. With a slide staircase next to it, there was no inconvenience of having to go down the stairs, so that was fine too.

However, coming out late, unfamiliar sounds like dogs barking and children playing stimulated his ears.

What… Why are there so many people?

As Woojin came out of the building and stopped in place, Sooyoung looked up at him and asked, “Why?”

“Is it crowded?”

Woojin’s words made Sooyoung look around and say, “Yes. Kids are playing in the park… There are two people walking dogs. But we won’t go there.”

“Explain.”

“What?”

“Explain what you see right in front of you.”

Although it seemed like 10 minutes would pass by if she explained, Sooyoung began to explain in detail.

“If you go straight ahead, there’s a park. On the right side of the park, there’s a playground, and if you go straight to the left, there’s something… a cafe? What’s over there? Anyway, there’s a pretty building, and if you keep going, there’s a fountain. On top of the fountain, there’s a baby angel sitting in a shell, laughing. If you go past there and continue… Oh? What’s over there? There’s a sculpture, and over there, there are outdoor tables and chairs. It seems like a space made for residents to sit and rest. If you go further… From there, it’s not visible well from here. It’s overall very spacious and clean. Oh, there’s also a raised yellow path on the sidewalk. Mr. Woojin, when you walk on that path later…”

“Later? Why would I walk on that path later?”
