Chapter 10 – Part 1
“Quickly.”
“That, yes…”
Gayeong, who seemed dazed, took the bag from her hand and naturally brought it to me.
And then put it down in her room and head for her kitchen?
In that short time, three people, including Senna, who joined with her portion of rice and tableware, were sitting huddled at the table waiting for me.
“Eat it before it gets cold.”
First of all, I recommend Kimchi Jjigae with Heoyeon seaweed. I didn’t know it was cold because I stayed inside the house all day, but Ga-young wouldn’t.
The hot and spicy stew will cool down Gayoung’s body, which must have hardened slightly from the cold.
In the meantime, Senna rushed at me with a spoon, so I tapped her hand as she reached for the kimchi stew to make her sound.
“Oops! Why?! Try it!”
“You should start with your aunt. How dare you.”
“Don’t you know the secret eunuch? The secret eunuch?”
Kimi eunuch?
Could it be that this world’s version of Kimi’s Court?
He snorted at her and waved her hand at Senna, as if it was somehow implausible.
“Ceeeee…”
That seems to have upset me. When I see you pouting your lips like that.
“Then, shall we taste the kimchi stew made by Yuhan?”
Ga-yeong raised her spoon and scooped up a little bit of kimchi stew and brought it to her mouth.
‘How..’
It passed Gina’s standards and mine, but I’m not sure if it would suit Gayoung’s mouth.
Because taste is different for each person.
Feeling her heart pounding and beating with anticipation thanks to her, Ga-young, who had been blowing on her stew to cool it down, carefully tasted it.
“Oh.”
Ga-young’s eyes, which looked tired somewhere, turned round in an instant. Then she took another spoonful of her stew and tasted hers.
‘I passed.’
She seemed to like her quite a bit, so Senna thrust her own spoon into the stew as if waiting for this moment to nod her head in satisfaction.
A spoonful as well.
And then, as she frowned, I wondered if it just didn’t suit Sena’s lips…
“What, why is it delicious?”
Fortunately, that wasn’t the case.
Senna, who tilted her head as if she really didn’t understand, quickly showed her fangs and smiled.
“It just caught on. You put ramen soup in here.”
“You didn’t put it in?”
“You’re lying. Be honest. It’s ramen soup and it’s dasida.”
“I don’t even know where you two are.”
“You’re lying. But it tastes like this?”
I don’t know what this taste is, but I really didn’t put both.
Kimchi jjigae isn’t a grandiose dish, and it’s one of the things I’ve eaten like a real meal, but there’s no reason to use cheat keys to make it.
“..Really? But why is it delicious?”
“Stop talking and eat it quickly. You like egg rolls.”
While Senna was arguing with me, Gina was silently attacking the egg rolls.
Thanks to this, the egg rolls that had been filling the plate slightly larger than the size of my two palms together had already been reduced by half.
“Ah, sister…!”
“What.”
It was also Gina.
Well, he didn’t even glar at him, he just made a blunt voice, but Sena changed into a calmer person as if he never did that.
Isn’t it the level of being trained to react to just hearing a voice?
With that in mind, she moved the plate that had been leaning toward Gayoung and Gina toward Sena.
Is she not a sister for nothing?
Gina must have also been a fan of egg rolls.
The moment I moved the plate to Senna, a gaze flew into her face as if asking how you could do that, and it was definitely like that.
Whether she knew it or not, Senna was just busy laughing and saying ‘hehe’ as if she was happy.
‘Ugh…’
She looked a bit sleazy, but she was also subtly cute.
It’s like she makes me want to take care of something more. So she took chopsticks and put something like a side dish on top of Sena’s spoon.
“What, who knows Anne?”
“Does it seem like a kid when you pick out and eat only the meat and pick out the egg rolls alone?”
“What, what are you saying?”
Surprisingly, the reaction was not bad for being annoyed.
It’s embarrassing, but doesn’t it feel like you don’t hate it?
She did, and with her mischievous expression and voice, she gave it another try.
“Let’s go, our Sena. Shall we try this too? Seasoned, seasoned eggplant.”
“Ugh… No matter how much I season eggplant…”
“Why? It’s delicious. And I can’t use it if I’m picky.”
Saying it as if to tell her, he picked up with chopsticks and placed it on top of her spoon again.
For a moment, Sena closed her eyes and pushed it into her mouth.
Then, without chewing, he swallowed it whole.
Of course, the non-comte non-comte ended there.
The moderately salty and moderately spicy soup must have been liked by Gina, who emptied the bowl in a short time and brought a new bowl of rice to her seat.
“You’re really sitting down for nothing. Are you a kid? Yusena.”
“Why? Mom looks good.”
“Ah, it’s because the food tastes bad.”
“I heard it was delicious for something like that? Isn’t it already two bowls?”
“No, that’s because the stew is delicious…”
Thanks to Gayoung’s timely performance, peace returned to the table.
But when peace came, Senna began to show her strange behavior.
I don’t know why, but she keeps glancing at me…
‘Can you please do more?’
She said she hates everything, but was she secretly comfortable and nice?
Was probably not, and seemed to have something to say to me.
Yuhan’s prediction was correct.
In fact, Sena was in a state where she was working hard on the timing to bring up a story related to the V-Tube video.
‘I think I should ask now…’
The atmosphere is good, wouldn’t it be okay now?
But how do you get the story out?
Wouldn’t it be better to ask as politely as possible?
“Hey.”
Contrary to such a wish, what actually came out of his lips was a blunt voice.
“Huh? Why? Let’s eat more?”
“Don’t you have a hand? You scoop it up and eat it yourself.”
“No, it’s not like that…”
After taking a deep breath, she carefully opened her mouth and asked. She’s going to edit and upload today’s video of the merger on V-tube. What did she think about using a video that appeared briefly earlier?
She pretended to be as nonchalant as possible, but it was a difficult question to ask.
Maybe that’s why, but her heart was beating fast.
However, it was someone other than Yuhan who actually answered the question.
Widely-
The sound of spoons clashing against table echoed through the kitchen.
“Hey, Yusena.”
At that shocking moment, what followed was her older sister’s voice, which was colder than the air flowing outside.
“What are you talking about again?”
At that moment, Senna remembered.
She had reigned in terror itself in the neighborhood where she originally lived, or her past.
Despite her Yuhan’s obvious refusal, she couldn’t let go of her lingering feelings until the end, and it was always her older sister Jina who kicked out the soggy bitches who clung to her.
She knew it better than anyone else because she had been watching it right next to her.
How vicious her older sister Gina becomes when she gets mad.
It was pointing at me at this moment.
The moment she realized that, her breath caught in her throat and her body began to shudder.
“What are you talking about? Huh? Are you talking about me?”
Is this what living is all about?
Somehow, even the bitches who are known to hang out in the neighborhood can’t get enough of their pulse when they’re only in front of unnie.
None of the truths I had come to realize after years were comforting.
It was because her own image was naturally overlaid on the faces of her older sister, as soon as she remembered the images of the girls who knelt down and cried in front of her older sister.
Yuhan was looking at the confrontation between the two with great interest.
‘Somehow, it smells like I’ve been playing for a while…’
I must have hit it a bit when I was in school.
Seeing how Senna shrunk to such an extent just because he heard just one word.
Certainly, Gina’s glare at Sena was bloody. Even though she wasn’t wearing a particularly threatening expression, she did.
Should I just say that for some reason, I automatically feel that I will be screwed if I stick with this person?
Anyway, she felt too sorry for Senna to pretend she didn’t know, so she quickly stepped between the two.
“What’s wrong with you sister?”
“You stay still.”
“I made a mistake. Sena-noona did nothing wrong.”
So be patient.
In that sense, I carefully grabbed Jina’s arm, which was tight and strong.
I wonder if it was like that that made me even more angry.
I could feel the strength slowly draining from my arm.
I’m secretly enjoying the feeling of being rejuvenated thanks to that…
“So what happened, Sena?”
Gayoung, who had a serious expression on her face as much as Gina, lightly patted Sena’s shrunken shoulder and asked.
Could she have been a little more conscious of him?
From Sena’s mouth, the events that had happened throughout the day began to flow in order.
From crashing into the studio while I was on air, to being ordered to broadcast with me as a penalty for finishing last in the merger.
Gina, who heard all these words, shed a blank laugh as if it was absurd.
“But do you really do that?”
“No.. I also said that if Yuhani refuses, it will be over..”
“I said it was fine.”
At that moment, Gina’s gaze, which was facing Sena, turned sharply to mine.
‘Oh Mr..’
While washing the dishes in the morning, he was several times more bloody than the one he saw.
It’s like he can’t help but be scared. Thanks to that, regardless of my will, my voice trembled slightly.
“You?”
“Uh, yes… I thought it would help Sena-noona.”
“Anyway, it’s like that.. Ha..”
“And that… I thought it would be fun.”
I quickly added one more excuse, but it didn’t seem to have any effect.
The frowning expression didn’t get better, and just imagining it was Gina, as if her headache was hurting, I pressed my hollow forehead.
The moment she went into silence for a while, Ga-yeong, who had been watching the situation, stepped forward again.
“Yuhan.”
Is she planning to dissuade me too?
I thought it might be so, but after a moment of silence, what came out of her mouth was a completely different question than I expected.
“Did you seriously think about it and decide?”
“Yes? Oh, yes…”
“Then do it.”
No, you allow this so meekly?
Really?
“Mom!”
Then it is.
Our fierce opposition cannot stand still.
At this point, I was curious.
I wondered what Yuhan had been through in the past, so Gina, Gayoung, and everyone else reacted like that.
‘Is there any way to know?’
It would have been nice if Yuhan’s past was added as a bonus while providing service.
‘Isn’t that the water of ice?’
It’s like that in the novel.
That’s why I’m going through a bit of confusion because of the memories that have just been mixed up here and there.
Or did you purposely block it to prevent that from happening?
It must have been a moment when I was laughing inwardly because I didn’t know whether to be grateful or resentful.
“Gina.”
A voice so low that it was hard to believe that it came from Ga-young crossed the kitchen.
Needless to say, she passed by Gayoung’s suddenly changed voice and hurt her body.
“Why are you screaming in front of the table?”
“No, that…”
“And Jina. Yuhan is now 22 years old. Of course, in your eyes, he still looks young, but Yuhan is now an adult.”
Ga-young told Gina that I shouldn’t go in to blindly defeat the decision I made on my own, just because it’s my family or because I’m worried.
Of course, Gina didn’t quite understand what she said, but what if someone else said it was Ga-young?
“Ha.. I see.”
She was really reluctant, but with a look that she couldn’t help it, Jina nodded her head roughly, then turned to me and added.
Just in case, really, if something strange happens after it goes on air, don’t think about hiding it and say it right away.
“Okay.”
Seeing you do this, do you have any experience of being plagued by stalkers in the past?
Anyway, the conversation seemed to end there.
“By the way, wait a minute.”
Gina, who was about to cast her gaze this time towards her Senna, jerked her head back towards her.
What more do you have left to say?
“Yes why?”
“Didn’t Yuhan say you would start working out with me tomorrow?”
“Ah.”
