Chapter 17 – Mesugaki and Cooking
“Jaejoon? What are you doing there?”
“Ill..~ Huh..~ Yes? It’s nothing.”
Behind Jae-yeon’s sister, he was cursing at Jae-hee with his mouth.
If you are Korean, it is natural to say it as a curse that you would know just by looking at the shape of your mouth.
Seeing the shape of my mouth, Jaehee must have known that she was swearing. She glared at me with her eyes and moved her eyes back and forth.
‘What, if you get caught later, you’ll get lost? What should I do? It’s locked with a padlock in my house anyway.’
The biggest lock I can buy because the doorknob is broken.
It won’t be easy to get in because the green metal lock used in the so-called school gymnasium is broken.
In the first place, the key was hidden in a place that people couldn’t even predict, so you’ll never get in?
I laughed to my heart’s content and looked at Jaeyeon noona.
I felt even more beautiful than yesterday, perhaps because I had to go to work after breakfast, maybe because I was wearing a black suit skirt and white blouse, so-called office lady look, which was completely different from the look I saw yesterday.
“Who are you?”
“This is the older sister Jaejoon knows.”
Jaehee and Jaeyeon noona started to look at each other.
Jae-yeon noona looks down with her arms crossed while wearing her suit with her corporate employee ID card tied around her neck.
Looking at Jae-yeon noona like that, Jae-hee wearing her usual black ROKA tee and black dolphin pants.
They were so diametrically opposed that they couldn’t understand each other.
“It seems like we were having fun talking earlier. Are you close?”
“We’ve known each other since we moved into this villa, so if you’re close, you can say we’re close.”
A friendly bitch.
I don’t even want to see your face
Jaehee tilted her stance forward, inserting both of her fingers into the dolphin pants that couldn’t fit all of her fingers.
“Ah, that’s right. You must have known it for a long time.”
“You are?”
“I recently got to know… Um, maybe a friend?”
‘Friend?’
Well, Jaeyeon noona can accept me as my friend.
Hmm… Friend.
That’s a really nice accent.
A person who shares food and helps each other when it is difficult.
Are you my friend number 1?
“Friend? With Jaejoon?”
“I think so? Jaejoon, right?”
The two of them were talking, and when the story about me suddenly came up, their eyes focused on me.
‘What, why? What am I…’
I felt chills run down my spine as I suddenly saw two women looking at me.
I couldn’t make eye contact and kept lowering my head, as if I had returned home after putting my grades into the ground like coins in my school days.
“Jaejun, are you our friend?”
“A friend… Jaejoon?”
What on earth should you normally think of me? Is this because of one friend?
I hid behind Jae-yeon noona, but she slowly came forward and gave me a little glaring look.
“Ah? Do I have friends too? Jaeyeon noona is my friend~.”
“Really? You don’t really like girls…”
“We’re friends~ Anyway, don’t bother~ Noona, we’re leaving now.”
“Okay.”
If I stayed here, it seemed like there would be no end, let alone food, so I first took Jaeyeon noona’s hand and started to move on my own.
“Jaejun?!”
“Let’s go to eat quickly… I’m still sick from the hangover.”
“Huh.”
“Your hands are soft…”
As I was holding my hand and dragging it, I wonder if it was because Jaeyeon noona’s hand was bigger than mine.
Maybe it’s just that my hands are bigger than mine?
More than that, she looked quite hot because she was wearing a blouse, a tight miniskirt, and high heels to go to work.
No, it would be abnormal not to sweat even wearing black stockings on your legs.
Everyone is working hard…
People are all working hard for the future in order to earn money to live.
When I judged that I was a bit far from the villa, I let go of Jae-yeon noona’s hand.
“Ah…”
“So what are we going to eat?”
“Right, um… Bone hangover soup?”
“We ate gamjatang yesterday, aren’t they the same?”
In the first place, Gamjatang and Bone Haejangguk were essentially the same, so I was uncomfortable eating them again.
I’m poor, so I should be grateful if someone buys me something, but I ate so much last night and it was a bit awkward to eat again.
“Oh, that’s right, we ate gamjatang yesterday… So what do you want to eat? I can buy you expensive ones.”
“I don’t need anything expensive, just eat bean sprout soup, right?”
“Soup?”
“You don’t like soup?”
Since yesterday, Jaeyeon noona seems to be surprised when I ask her to go out to eat, right?
How about gamjatang and soup?
“Bean sprout soup? Do you like soup?”
“Well, I like all of them because they are cheap and cost-effective.”
“Then, since I know that this area is delicious, I think I can go there.”
After all, does a competent office worker know everything about the surrounding commercial district?
***
“Whoa~ Whoa~ It’s delicious.”
“Is it delicious?”
“Gulp… Yes.”
When you eat bean sprout soup, which has a warm and cool taste, you can feel in real time that your stomach, which has been chewed up from drinking alcohol, is relieved by the warm soup.
It seems that all the toxic substances in my body are gone and I am returning to my original healthy body.
The taste that makes the body healthy.
It was as if red ginseng liquid, which is good for the body, was added to cereal filled with tiger energy.
No, is it better because it tastes better than that?
“I ate well.”
“It was tasty?”
“Yes… It is so delicious.”
“Hehe, I’ll buy it for you later.”
Even later?
But obviously we met for the first time yesterday, and looking at what we do, it seems like we’ve known each other for almost several years…
Still, wouldn’t it be okay to have people like this in the world?
I felt it since yesterday, but Jaeyeon noona was the first person I had a pleasant conversation with after coming to this world.
‘I said they were friends earlier, but do they really think they’re friends?’
“Jaejoon.”
“Why?”
“Did you feel offended when I called you a friend earlier?”
Are you in a bad mood?
Rather, it was okay because he told me that he was a friend in that situation.
“Weren’t we friends?”
“Yes, my friend.”
“We will continue to be friends in the future.”
“Continue…”
When I called him a friend, his face stretched out and his cheeks sunk into a smile, but when he said that we should continue to be friends, his face seemed to stiffen a little.
Is there anything wrong with continuing to be friends?
“I’m sorry… I’m sorry.”
“It’s okay, I’ll pay first, so I’ll wait here.”
“Yes.”
Jae-yeon noona took out her wallet and walked to her checkout and started paying.
Hmm… I think it tastes best when someone else buys it rather than when I buy it.
He has a lot of money and a pretty face.
What kind of people do they marry later?
No, at that level, if there’s someone you like, you’ll get it right away…
‘Coming to think of it, I’ll get married someday too, right?’
Obviously, the first goal was to return to the original world. That goal has long since disappeared.
The bastard who stole my body didn’t seem to have any intention of giving my body back, and she had almost given up halfway because there was no way to get back.
But will my parents take good care of me?
Jaejoon in this world has no family, so he will take care of his parents more than I do.
More than that, if I were to get married in this world, what kind of woman would I date?
“Jaejoon, we’ve calculated, so let’s go now.”
“Yes.”
When I came out of the store, there seemed to be a lot of people going to work, and people in suits were heading somewhere with dark expressions.
Will your sister go to work now?
“Is your sister not going to work either?”
“Hmm? I have to do it now, Jaejoon, I’ll go to work! I’m working hard on today’s broadcast too.”
“All right…”
My sister checked her wristwatch from time to time and ran to the nearest subway station as if in a hurry.
Go to work
Come to think of it, I’ve never been to a company before.
Even in the world, it was a case of earning money alone by learning coins and stocks rather than going to a company, so there were not many days when I wore a suit.
‘At that time, I studied hard to earn even a little more…’
For a moment.
How did I originally earn money in the first place…?
Obviously, in order to do coins or stocks, you need to know the economy well to understand the market well, and to know the economy, you need to remember and organize a lot of information.
In order to do that, basically, you have to have a good head.
Come to think of it, something is strange since then.
It just feels weird that I go into the refrigerator or act stupid and complacent.
Ever since you were young, you’ve never heard that you’re stupid, even if you’ve been called foolish?
‘Couldn’t it be… Did the intelligence change as the body changed?’
Even after making various hypotheses, the most probable hypothesis is that as the body changes, does the intelligence change as well?
“Ahhh… My head hurts, I’ll think about this later.”
It seems certain that the skill level has changed.
“Hey, can’t you get that one right, you idiot.”
“Damn you did it with a lighter.”
On my way home, I turned around when I heard a voice next to me.
He pokes a needle into something that looks like a yellowish-brown cookie and breaks it to match its shape.
‘Dalgona?’
Picking dalgona.
A dish you can easily make if you have sugar and complaints at home…
Ok that’s it for today
