Chapter 119 – Chapter 119
After Eun-chae’s feet were loosened, her movements increased significantly.
She still refused to keep more than a certain distance from her, but even then she dragged me around the house and yard all day long.
Do-gyun thought that this was a reaction from curiosity.
Why not Eun-chae sits on her butt and stares at him for a long time if there is something that interests her even while she is in full swing.
As always, the pond was like that, the flower bed in the corner of the yard was like that, and today Eunsam’s garage was like that.
When Do-gyun entered the garage and saw Eun-chae looking around her cars, he felt her heart race.
“Ha, can’t you touch it carelessly?”
“Yeah.”
A small nod of the head.
However, even so, I was not relieved. It’s not another car, it’s not expensive cars that each one makes a ‘billion’ sound.
If Eunchae had scratched the car…
-Are you gay?
Creepy.
Do-kyun felt his body shudder at his imagination.
I didn’t want to kneel down to Ko Eun-sam. He didn’t want to apologize to the gnome.
If such a situation ever happened, I didn’t know what kind of favor the clever guy would use that as an excuse.
While following Eun-chae with a nervous heart, Eun-chae went to one of the cars, “Chun-sik,” As Ko Eun-sam called it, and brushed it with her hand.
Flinch.
My body trembled at the gesture.
Please, please don’t set your nails up.
While thinking about that, I couldn’t say to stop and was restless. Fortunately, Eun-chae, who had lost interest in tea, clung to Do-gyun again.
Do-gyun lifted his tiptoes and whimpered as he watched Eun-chae climb on top of him.
“Shall we go now?”
“Yeah.”
An answer that makes you feel at ease.
Do-gyun left the garage with a smile on his face.
While leaving the garage and going back home, Do-gyun noticed Eun-chae’s fingernails that were starting to protrude before he knew it, and said, “It’s time to cut her nails.”
“I’m going to go home and get my nails done.”
Do-gyun saw Eun-chae tilt her head at her words, let out a laugh at her face, hugged her, and opened the front door.
“Wait a minute. I’ll bring you some of her nail clippers.”
“Yeah.”
Do-gyun put Eun-chae on the sofa, took out a nail clipper from the shelf across from him, and sat down next to Eun-chae again.
“Come here.”
Afterwards, when Do-gyun, who said that, tapped my thigh, Eun-chae sat on top of him and stared blankly at Do-gyun.
In response, Do-gyun gently stroked Eun-chae’s hair, then put his hand on top of Eun-chae’s, then pushed her nail clippers in front of her and continued.
“I’ll do it right away, so hang on a minute.”
Saying that, while placing his nail clippers in front of her nails, Eun-chae flinched and pulled her hand back, and a question surfaced on Do-gyun’s face.
Do-gyun, who was looking at Eun-chae’s complexion, wondering what was going on, spit out a question while looking at Eun-chae with her lips pursed tightly.
“What’s the matter?”
Eun-chae’s eyes turned to Do-gyun, and after examining Do-gyun’s face for a while, Eun-chae spat out an answer.
“Are you doing a good job?”
Return question. Do-gyun’s body flinched and trembled.
Something I hadn’t thought of before.
To her, thrusting a knife into her body was synonymous with self-injury.
Do-gyun, who recalled him, felt a surge of sadness, put his nail clippers down next to him, and brushed Eun-chae’s cheeks as he spat out an answer.
“… No. It’s not a good job, it’s cleaning.”
“Yes?”
Head tilted sideways.
How should Do-kyun explain it so that she can understand it better? With that thought in her mind, she chose her words.
She was teaching a lot, but she still didn’t know much more than she knew.
She should explain this to the best of her knowledge. Do-gyun, who came up with such a thought, looked straight into Eun-chae’s eyes and continued his explanation.
“You said you were sad when I was sick, right?”
“Yes, when Bee is sick, Eun-ah is sad.”
Nod The answer is to nod your head. To that, Do-kyun continued with a smile on his lips.
“I am the same. When you’re sick I get so sad That’s why I take precautions in advance so you don’t get sick.”
After saying that, Do-gyun grabbed Eun-chae’s nails and pushed him into Eun-chae’s eyes and continued.
“If your fingernails are long, germs get caught in them, so bad germs could be bothering you. Also, if your fingernails are long, they are easy to get caught and break. So I cut it in advance. Because you can’t be sick.”
Do-gyun nodded his head at my words and looked at Eun-chae staring at her nails.
“That’s why I don’t want you to get sick, so I make sure you don’t get sick in advance.”
“… I’m sad when the bee is sick.”
A small nod of the head in response.
Saying that, Do-gyun looked at Eun-chae entrusting his hand to me, brushed his hair, and picked up the nail clippers again.
“It’s over soon, so if you don’t want to see it, would you close your eyes?”
“No. I will see.”
After saying that, Do-kyun started to cut his fingernails with a laugh once again as he focused on his nails.
Apart. Apart. Do-gyun, who was carefully cutting his fingernails, leaving enough room for fear of picking at them, smiled with satisfaction when he saw Eun-chae’s fingernails starting to fade little by little.
At first, what started out as a fear of scratching my flesh soon turned into the purpose of cutting my fingernails.
Isn’t there such a thing
I want to do something for no reason, so I do what I don’t have to do.
For Do-gyun, cutting his nails was like that.
It was something he could ask for when other personalities were present, and he could ask Eun-ah to cut it himself, but Do-gyun liked the quiet atmosphere of cutting his nails, so he took it upon himself before he knew it.
The clattering sound of nails falling. For some reason, the sound of breathing tickling my ears or the warmth coming from the skin in contact gave me deep satisfaction in itself.
Do-gyun cut his nails for a long time, and then, seeing that all ten fingers had been cut straight, he spat out words of praise toward Eun-chae.
“Well done. It must have been hard to stay still.”
The words you say while shaking your head.
As Eun-chae rubbed her head against Do-gyun’s hand, who was sitting on top of her head, she belatedly gave an answer.
“Yes, I did well.”
Nod My head is stiff.
When Do-gyun said, “Well done,” Eun-chae, who used to ask, “You did well?” Now started to acknowledge him, and he was slightly satisfied.
Eunchae is now able to praise herself in a way that is not painful.
*
After the day he cut his nails, there was a thought that had been running through Do-gyun’s head for several days.
One of Eunchae’s fundamental problems is that her perception of some things is distorted.
How did you solve him
While Do-gyun was struggling with his worries for the past few days, he came up with a solution that seemed very good.
‘It makes me gain experience.’
What he came up with was a way to make him realize through experience what kind of things can be used for what kind of work and what kind of result can be made.
Do-gyun spoke to Eun-chae, who was staring blankly at the cooking ingredients lined up on the table.
“Today we will cook together.”
“Cooking.”
“Okay, let’s make a meal together.”
Do-gyun looked at Eun-chae, who nodded at his words, and raised a small smile.
Eun-chae has always done destructive things, so I wanted to teach her the joy that comes from being productive while the atmosphere is in full swing.
He wanted to give people the experience of getting fulfillment rather than pain as a result of their actions.
A place prepared with such a heart.
Do-gyun stroked Eun-chae’s hair and recited an explanation of the dish he was going to cook today.
“I will make a sandwich. Add your favorite meat, some vegetables, and make some sauce. It is eaten between bread.”
“Meat.”
Do-gyun felt a smile break out again when he saw Eun-chae sticking her head out in response to the word ‘meat’.
It was an act driven by a bit of anxiety.
It was true that having someone pick up a knife was a dangerous personality, so he needed to put the brakes on himself.
Do-kyun held Eun-chae from behind, leading Eun-chae by the hand and continued.
“I’ll chop the vegetables first. Onions and garlic… With the green grass here.”
Do-gyun, who continued to speak, placed vegetables on the cutting board one by one, then put Eun-chae’s hand on top of the vegetables and the hand holding the knife next to it, then slowly led Eun-chae’s hand and continued the conversation.
“Now, if you apply too much force, you could cut your fingers, so be careful… Yes, when you use a knife, it feels like you are pushing with a little bit of force in your hand.”
Do-gyun praised Eun-chae as he moved his hands as he guided them and trimmed the vegetables one by one.
“Nice job, now, for garlic, lay the knife like this and press it firmly on the back of the knife…”
Do-gyun put a smile on his lips as he watched Eun-chae focus on cooking little by little with his mouth tightly shut.
Fortunately, he seemed interested.
The first time I put the knife in his hand, his hand flinched a little, but now he was gently holding the knife and trimming the material in a certain shape.
Vegetables were trimmed quite nicely.
‘Um, is it natural?’
If it’s knife cutting, isn’t it Eunchae’s specialty?
The only thing that changed was that the slicing was changed from her flesh to vegetables, so there was no reason she couldn’t do it.
For a moment while he was giggling alone at a random thought that suddenly came to his mind, Do-gyun finished trimming the vegetables with a shudder when he saw Eun-chae raise a question on his face as he suddenly burst into laughter.
Do-gyun, who gathered the trimmed vegetables in one place and soon organized the kitchen knife, tousled Eun-chae’s hair and spat out words of praise.
“Well done. After all, you are the best at cutting a knife.”
Eun-chae, who nodded at Do-gyun’s words, looked at Do-gyun for a moment, then cast her gaze at the vegetables I had trimmed and continued by pressing her finger down on him.
“Weird.”
“Yes?”
Words that came out like a mumble. When Do-gyun tilted his head at him, Eun-chae looked at Do-gyun and spit out a question.
“Is this a good thing?”
What is the purpose of the question? While thinking about it, Do-gyun recalled Eun-chae’s perception of the act of cutting and spit out an answer with a small smile.
“Not this either, this is a good thing.”
“This?”
Barely? The expression of the question that is revealed on the face of the face. Do-gyun answered Eun-chae’s lips with both thumbs.
“Yes, this. A knife is a tool used for making or manipulating things like this.”
Of course, there are knives made to cut people, but those are things that Eunchae doesn’t need to know, so it’s okay to explain it like this.
“The knife is not a tool for hurting. A tool to please. If you use a knife to cut the ingredients and prepare the food, the person who eats it will be very happy. Having someone cook for you is such a joy just from the heart.”
“Eun-ah isn’t sick, but are you still happy?”
“Yes, you can be happy without getting sick. Am I really happy for you right now?”
Saying that, Do-gyun raised a sincere smile on his face.
Eun-chae tried to imitate Do-gyun’s expression by slightly narrowing her eyebrows while looking at his face, then closing her eyebrows again and twisting her face around.
Of course, it didn’t go well. In the end, another bizarre expression came to mind.
Looking at him, Do-kyun giggled when he found that his face was familiar enough that he felt funny.
“Okay, now that we’ve trimmed the vegetables, let’s grill the meat.”
“… Yeah.”
Do-gyun narrowed his forehead as if he didn’t like something, and laughed again when he saw Eun-chae, who immediately regained his complexion at the word ‘meat’.
