Chapter 144 – Chapter 144
It was a garage.
“Valet.”
“Yes?”
“You have to open the door.”
Do-gyun looked at Eun-ji standing in front of the passenger seat door with his arms crossed.
The face glaring at him with a blunt expression makes his fist clenched.
“Oops, I forgot again… !”
“Hey, take care.”
After saying that, Eunji pushed her body into the door Do-gyun opened.
After Do-gyun sighed and closed the passenger seat door, he went to the driver’s seat and looked at Eun-ji.
“Hey, fasten your seat belt.”
Saying that, when Do-kyun fastened the seat belt, Eun-ji made another ‘heung’ sound, raised her mouth crookedly, and let out a laugh.
“This is sensible. Pass.”
“What…”
Is it a game of scoring? It’s ridiculous to constantly evaluate yourself from morning on, saying whether you passed or failed. When Do-gyun let out a laugh and looked at Eun-ji, Eun-ji said something with a chin gesture.
“What are you doing? Aren’t you leaving?”
Kwak.
Teeth clenched tightly.
“Grr, shuffle shake… !”
Do-kyun started his car as he felt his backbone pull.
Something, it seems like it’s going to be a difficult day.
*
Is it Children’s Day? The road was clogged with cars coming out.
Not only the city center, but also the outlying roads that normally should have been open were blocked.
Do-gyun, who had been holding the steering wheel with a frustrated heart for a long time, rolled his eyes and kept his mouth shut to examine Eun-ji, who was looking out the window.
Something seemed odd.
The kid who normally would have to complain about why he’s so slow is just staring out the window, so it makes me think ‘what’s going on?’
Do-gyun looked at the situation for a moment, then looked at him again and opened his mouth.
“The car is blocked a lot.”
“Stupid servant. It’s a red day today, so of course it’s blocked.”
Kwak.
Do-kyun felt his blood pressure rise at the words spoken and gripped the steering wheel tighter.
“Right? Maybe a child…”
“Princess Day.”
“Yes, because it’s Princess’s Day… !”
Do you really want to hit one?
Concerns flared up, but Do-gyun was able to bear it, remembering Eun-ah’s face.
How painful would Eun-ah be if she was beaten and even hurt? Do-kyun didn’t want to see Eun-ah’s tears.
‘I can’t even get juice anymore.’
When we first met, we were able to overcome the pressure by squeezing the juice first, but if we squeeze the juice at the point where we already know each other enough, that kid will laugh at us.
Do-gyun let out a deep sigh and continued driving.
It was 1 hour and 30 minutes later when we arrived at the zoo.
‘I thought it would arrive in 40 minutes.’
Going out took longer than expected. Do-gyun got out of the car and looked at the entrance to the zoo, which was packed with people.
“Oh.”
This is a zoo. It’s a human.
I’m already tired at the thought of meeting them. Do-gyun sighed as he looked at the zoo entrance, opened the passenger seat door, took Eun-ji, and held his hand tightly.
Immediately after, when Eunji’s gaze turned to Do-gyun, Do-gyun recalled a mischievous laugh and spat out words toward Eun-ji.
“Can’t you just cry because you’re lost like before?”
“Foolish attendant. So, you should have taken good care of the princess.”
“Her.”
Do-gyun let out a laugh at Eun-ji’s “Excited” And turned his head away, then made a puzzled face when he remembered that the incident at the amusement park was his fault.
Hit. After all, it was because he disappeared without a word.
Do-kyun scratched the back of his head with a ‘kee-eung’ sound, then took Eun-ji to the zoo.
Do-gyun stood at the entrance of the zoo, looked at the map, and asked Eun-ji a question.
“Where do you want to see me?”
“Hmm…”
Do-gyun’s gaze turned to Eun-ji. He pretends to be arrogant, but in the end he’s a kid. The anticipation on his face makes me think, ‘If you do, then it is.’
While Do-gyun giggled at the scene, Eun-ji pointed to a corner of the map with her index finger.
“Here first.”
“Little animal friends?”
Eunji’s head nodded. Do-gyun laughed again at that figure and nodded his head.
“Okay, let’s go.”
It’s still morning, and if you take your time, you should be able to tour the entire zoo.
Do-gyun held Eun-ji’s hand tightly and moved on. As I passed the crowded entrance and walked to the herbivorous animals, I felt that the number of family visitors was increasing.
There were fathers carrying their children on their backs, and mothers holding their children’s hands on either side of them as they walked. There was also a child standing between her parents, her hands held up.
Do-kyun felt a peaceful feeling while watching them, and later noticed that Eun-ji’s eyes were on the father who was carrying the child on his back, and he jokingly asked a question.
“Why, are you carrying me too?”
Flinch. Eun-ji shuddered and glared at Do-gyun with a pale face and spat out words.
“What are you saying, worthy of your age, servant.”
Flinch. This time, Do-gyun’s body trembled.
“… If you don’t like it, you don’t like it.”
When Do-gyun flinched and uttered mumbling words, Eun-ji let out a deep sigh and shook his head.
“It’s okay, so just walk.”
Eunji said that and walked away holding Do-gyun’s hand tightly.
How long did it take Do-gyun, who had come to the place where his small animal friends were, spit out an ‘oh’ sound when he saw the fox at the very entrance.
“A fox.”
Brown fox. It was a fox with a thin body and a thick tail that caught the eye.
Even though it was an animal I knew what it looked like, seeing it with my own eyes made me think of how amazing it was.
‘Come to think of it, it’s been a while since I’ve been to the zoo.’
To be honest, for the first time since high school. This was what I found after almost 10 years.
For some reason, it feels like going back to childhood.
Do-gyun looked at Eun-ji with a pleasant smile at the heartbeat rising inside him.
A fox stretching all the way caught his eye and opened his mouth ‘heh’. While Do-kyun let out a laugh, Eun-ji’s body trembled.
“Why?”
When Do-gyun tilted his head, he asked.
“Valet… That.”
Eunji tapped Dokyun on the shoulder and pointed at the woman in the middle of the crowd.
At that, Do-gyun’s eyes turned to the direction Eun-ji pointed, and Do-kyun’s body trembled.
A small sound escaped from his mouth.
“… It’s a fox coat.”
I saw a woman wearing a fox coat laughing at the fox.
What should I do?
‘Little…’
It didn’t seem like it.
Do-gyun felt ashamed of himself for no reason, and then moved his gaze toward Eun-ji.
Looking at the fox and the aunt, and then looking at the fox with pity. Do-kyun became embarrassed.
‘That lady comes in her fur coat in May.’
The atmosphere quickly becomes awkward. While Do-gyun was scratching the back of his head, the woman disappeared.
“Shall we go see the next one?”
“… Yes.”
Eunji’s head nodded, and Dokyun moved on.
It wasn’t easy from the start.
*
The zoo was great.
So, compared to the zoo that Do-gyun had been to more than 10 years ago, it was absurdly large.
Still, I think I walked for more than an hour, but now I’ve seen ‘Little Animal Friends’ halfway.
It wasn’t boring or anything like that. In addition to thinking that if it wasn’t for a day like this, when else would I come here, I enjoyed watching it because I felt like I was getting soft inside of animals with fluffy fur.
Eunji’s reaction was also very interesting.
When I saw something like a raccoon or a mongoose, it was fun to make my cheeks red and take my eyes off it, and I laughed at exclamations when I saw things like horses and roe deer.
What was it like when the elk came out while in full swing? Do-gyun was an elk that lived in the mountains of Gangwon-do and was seen from time to time, but Eun-ji looked at the elk for a long time and was startled by the cry of the elk.
Kick kick. While he was walking for a long time with a smile, Do-gyun, who went to the place where the land turtle was, saw him and thought, ‘Eun-chae will like it.’
It was an animal that suited Eunchae’s taste to move slowly, then stretch out again, and then flinch again.
Perhaps if Eunchae had come here, she would have stood in front of me all day and looked at the turtle.
As he continued his thoughts, Do-gyun felt a voice ringing in his head.
– Bee. Are turtles delicious?
Startle.
“Yes? What’s wrong with you?”
“Oh, no…”
Do-gyun shook his head and brushed his thoughts away.
Would be neurotic. Could Eun-chae covet the turtle?
‘… It’s good for medicinal purposes.’
Another thought that comes to mind. Do-gyun, who brushed his face away for no reason and brushed away his thoughts, moved his gaze to Eun-ji again and continued.
“Shall we go next?”
“Okay, guide me.”
“Yeah~.”
After a long step, a monkey came out this time.
“Five.”
It was the sound that came out of Do-gyun’s mouth.
When Do-gyun let out his voice as he saw the monkey climbing the tree, Eun-ji continued talking by alternating between Do-kyun and the monkey.
“It looks like it.”
“What?”
“No, talk to yourself.”
Do-gyun’s eyes narrowed.
‘I let everyone hear it?’
Do-gyun controlled the rising rage.
‘Patience, patience… !’
Because today is children’s day! To borrow Eunji’s words, it’s Princess’s Day!
Do-gyun took a deep breath and controlled his mind, then cast his gaze toward the monkey.
Some were climbing trees, while others were sitting on thick branches and mumbling something.
Look at him all the way and move on for a while.
“Come on, friend! Shall we get some snacks for our monkey friend?”
Do-gyun and Eun-ji’s eyes turned to the source of the voice.
“Looks like an experience course.”
“Experience course?”
“Trying to feed the kids outside of us.”
Saying so, Do-gyun pointed at the small monkey riding on the keeper’s shoulder in front of him.
“Do you want to go?”
When Do-gyun cast his gaze toward Eun-ji, he was at a loss for what to do and there was Eun-ji with her cheeks blushing.
After a while, Do-gyun led Eun-ji to the zookeeper, and the zookeeper handed Eun-ji a piece of apple and spat out words.
“Should my wonderful older sister give it to me?”
Eunji’s gaze turned to Do-gyun and the zookeeper.
Do-gyun smiled again at Eun-ji’s hesitant gaze and nodded his head.
“Give me one.”
“Well, then I’ll have to give it to you!”
Words that brighten the complexion. Eunji spat out the words and took the apology and held it out to the monkey.
“Now, try it!”
When Eun-ji looked at the monkey with an excited face and spoke to her, the monkey’s gaze turned to Eun-ji.
Eunji once, and the apple slice in Eunji’s hand once.
The monkey, which was constantly moving its gaze, immediately climbed down the keeper’s arm and took the apple from Eunji’s hand.
“Kikkik.”
A short sound came out, and while Eunji’s expression brightened, the monkey sniffed a piece of apple and threw it in Eunji’s face.
Puck-!
A piece of apple that fits right in the center of Eunji’s forehead.
The son-in-law fell into silence.
“Ah.”
The sound that came out of the keeper’s mouth.
When Do-gyun, who had opened his mouth blankly, shifted his gaze to the sound, there was a zookeeper who was breaking out in a cold sweat.
“That…”
A face full of bewilderment, as if he didn’t know what to say.
Do-gyun, who was looking at him, then found Eun-ji with her shoulders shaking and tearful, and left after bowing her head toward the zookeeper with a shy face.
A little bench in the corner.
Do-gyun looked at Eun-ji with a puzzled face.
It seemed that he was angry with his blushing face.
“Hey, are you okay?”
After the words were communicated, Eun-ji, who was in full swing, clenched his fists and slapped Do-gyun on the arm.
“Ouch!”
When Do-gyun looked at Eun-ji with a shocked face, Eun-ji glared at Do-gyun and shouted.
“He’s your friend! You are right instead.”
It was bottomless and bottomless, and it seemed like Do-gyun would go mad.
