Chapter 93 – But Is It Actually… -5-
My father’s voice on the other end was calmer than I expected.
“Were you expecting it?”
At those words, my father laughed as if it was absurd and asked me back.
[These kids do it even when they come to their parents’ house, but how much more can there be if there are two of them? It’s a good thing it hasn’t happened yet.]
The words were so straight to the point that I had nothing to say in response.
It was exactly as it was said.
Even before we first met, we did a lot of petty(?) Skinship, and after our first experience in earnest, we literally did it without any roughness.
Whenever I met Hyeji near her house, I made sure to go back to her house and fuck her.
Even if it wasn’t near Hyeji’s house, there were too many lodging facilities in Seoul.
To top it all off, I received the lodging app’s ‘Sleep 10 times, get 1 free’ promotion 10 times, so much so that I even received a call from customer service.
We went to see the Cheonggyecheon Lantern Festival and then went to a motel and had sex.
When we go camping, we have outdoor sex.
When we go to the sea, we have sex in the sea.
Looking back, the entire dating process was either a success or a success.
Moreover, the end of all those rice cakes was vaginal ejaculation.
Honestly, it was right to think that it was surprising that something like this hadn’t happened yet.
Of course, I said to my father openly, “Well, if you count the amount of sperm I poured into your daughter’s womb…” Although I didn’t say anything crazy.
Why that.
Isn’t there something called feeling?
If it were someone else, you wouldn’t know it, but my father also ‘married after having sex first’.
It wouldn’t be strange to say that I felt the bold spirit and intuition of a breeding king.
However, the important thing is that my father did not think it was such a big problem and even expected it.
[So, what do you want to do?]
“We… So, that’s right.”
[We will respect whatever choice you make, so discuss it with each other thoroughly and decide in a way that is good for both of you.]
After saying that, my father hung up the phone.
I felt embarrassed belatedly at the fact that we shared earphones with each other inside the café and talked on the phone about how the pregnancy was going.
“That, brother.”
“Huh?”
“What Dad just said…”
We should pay more attention to this point now.
“That’s what you think.”
“Even if I erase it… Does that mean it will happen?”
Because times have changed.
And we are young enough.
It means that even if you choose not to have children, you will be respected.
Still, since we come from a family that is very strict about Confucian hierarchy, I thought you would say that having children is a must, but it is true that I was worried about what kind of attitude my father would take.
Rather, I never thought he would mention abortion first because he was afraid that we might not be able to talk about it willingly.
… Is this really pragmatic Confucianism or something else? If my father’s style of Confucianism, which embraces respect for ancestors and a flexible way of thinking, had been spread earlier in Joseon, I think there would have been no Japanese invasions of Korea, Manchu War, or Japanese colonial rule.
Ah, it’s truly a disaster.
“So Hyeji. What do you want to do?”
After saying that, I held Hyeji’s hand tightly.
In my own way, I asked this out of respect for Hyeji’s opinion.
Hyeji couldn’t open her mouth easily, and she muttered and couldn’t look me in the eye.
I definitely have something to say.
It seemed like he couldn’t even think of doing it.
“Hyeji. “Then shall I speak first?”
At those words, Hyeji glanced at me secretly and nodded.
Although this is something we talked about before, the situation is different now than before.
From Hye-ji’s point of view, since she doesn’t know what her parents think, she may think that she was just saying this to comfort herself.
Respecting her opinion should be done while considering the situation.
For now, don’t try to get Hyeji’s answer out of respect.
It’s time to tell my honest feelings.
“Let’s have a child.”
“… Really?”
“You don’t like it?”
“No, that’s not it…”
“I want to give birth.”
Since I had to talk about the birth of a life, I felt that I had to be careful and make decisions with a great sense of responsibility.
No need to think too complicatedly.
If the person next to me is definitely the best woman in my life.
Isn’t it better to catch it quickly?
And there was another reason for thinking this way.
“Hyeji. “You love me, right?”
“Of course.”
“Do you ever want to meet another man…”
“What are you talking about! “Never, never!”
“Do you want to have children?”
“Well, um…”
“Don’t worry about economic power or anything like that. What if I only talk about whether I like it or not?”
When I gave her that premise, Hyeji looked down at her lower abdomen and stroked it carefully.
“If we really don’t worry about this or that, I want to have a baby. A child who looks like his brother. “I think it would be so pretty and lovely just by imagining it.”
We love each other.
I love you without even thinking about anyone else.
As a result of that love, I want to have a child.
Then the story becomes very simple.
“Hyeji. Then the sooner you have a child, the better.”
“Why… ?”
“Lets think. Many people say that they waste their time raising children during their youngest and best years.”
“That’s right.”
“But as life gets longer, those ‘good young days’ also get longer.”
It’s August now, so if the birth goes smoothly as scheduled, it will be around June next year.
At that time, Hyeji would be twenty-two years old. I am twenty-three years old.
From then on, when the child was about twenty years old, she reached a period when her hands became less active.
Hyeji and Nana are in their early 40s.
“Then from then until we die, the two of us can have fun and eat together for over 60 years!”
This is the so-called ’40s king return theory’!
Wow crazy. Am I a genius?
When Hyeji heard that, she seemed to have changed her mind and clapped her hands and nodded with a bright expression.
“That’s right!”
“Look at people in their 40s these days. “Nowadays, nutritional conditions have improved, so if you take a little care, you will look cooler and prettier than when you were in your fresh 20s.”
Just looking at the names that immediately come to mind, the theory of ‘Wang Gui in his 40s’ is convincing enough.
Kang Dong-won (41 years old)
Bae Doona (42 years old)
Lee Na-young (43 years old)
Won Bin (44 years old)
Kim Hee-seon (45 years old)
Cho Jin-woong (46 years old)
Moreover, popular actor Park Hee-soon is 52 years old. People in their 40s and 50s who take good care of themselves actually have a mature and cool charm that is not felt by immature people in their 20s.
Moreover, I don’t know how to express it, but Hyeji’s appearance and body are top tier for her age group.
They were no match for most girl groups, and even compared to actresses who were like real dolls and made people swallow their breath without even realizing it, they were no match for them.
To put it bluntly.
Even when Hyeji is in her 40s or 50s, she will be just as pretty as she is now. In fact, she will be even more beautiful with the elegance she doesn’t have now.
“Of course, it’s a bit of a problem because I’m not up to par, but…”
“What! What’s wrong? “Oppa is cool enough too!”
“Thank you for just saying something.”
“You just have to be cool in my eyes!”
“It means you’re not cool in other people’s eyes.”
“No, that’s not it! Anyway, you don’t need to look cool in other people’s eyes!”
It’s a joke.
If I look like the most beautiful girl in the world, that’s okay.
“But I think you’re really right. “I think it will take a toll on my stamina to raise a child in my 40s.”
However, there is a reason why so many people do not have children in their 20s.
This is because a child will not grow up on its own just because you give birth to it.
Because it costs a huge amount of money.
It’s such a difficult and burdensome path to have and raise a child when your future is uncertain.
But we have different stories.
First of all, my father said that I could come in and live there if I had time.
Above all.
“You will definitely succeed as a web novel.”
“I will also make a lot more money than I do now.”
Because they are both people who make a living from content.
This job also fits the theory of returning home, so even if you have a hard time now, if you don’t give up and work hard and persevere, the time to return will definitely come.
While raising children at a young age.
It is possible to survive without being hungry.
“Then shall I tell my father again?”
“Good.”
“I feel like we have become really close.”
“It was close to begin with.”
“No, that’s not it. Beyond that feeling, it feels like you’ve completely clung to each other and become one body?”
We were holding hands so naturally.
Hyeji’s face, which had been full of worry, soon cleared up and regained her usual fresh and playful charm.
When I called my father again, the call was connected right away.
[I was waiting.]
“We are going to have a child.”
As if he had expected that answer, my father said, “Hmm, hmm,” And cleared his throat once over the phone.
[My wife also agreed to your second generation plan. It can be said that one mountain has been overcome.]
“One mountain?”
[Okay. There is still one more mountain to climb.]
My father told us the next strategy we needed to carry out in a very serious and heavy voice.
[From now on, we will begin preparations for the meeting with the prospective in-laws.]
[I will tell you the stance you should take, so be sure to understand it well.]
