Chapter 99 – Struggle
A few days have passed since Si-hyeon delivered her divorce papers to Da-hye.
After receiving her divorce papers, Da-hye seemed to deeply regret the actions she had taken in her house and did her best day and night to clean up the dirty house. However, she had never cleaned her house properly before, and there was no way she could keep the inside of her house clean with her heavy and sluggish body, which had already weighed over 100 kg. Da-hye endured the nausea that came out and picked up the cockroaches crawling all over the living room floor with her bare hands, gathered them in a garbage bag and threw them away, but even so, the number of these unpleasant bugs showed no sign of decreasing.
Weekend morning. Da-hye woke up early, hoping that Si-hyeon would look favorably on her, and started cleaning the living room floor with her greasy body.
“Wow. Ugh. When will this all disappear? Uweek.”
As she struggled with the numerous cockroaches in the house, she felt like vomiting several times from the disgust of them. As fat Da-hye was cleaning the living room, black residue that looked like insect excrement stuck to her entire body. Considering that some people died due to her poor hygiene, it was not a problem that would end in just being dirty.
“Stop. “You can stop.”
Si-hyeon, who was sitting on a chair at the kitchen table, which was relatively clean compared to her living room, looked at Da-hye, who was cleaning, with cold eyes, as if she had given up on something. Regardless of whether she atones or not, Si-hyeon seems to have already decided to divorce her.
“Under…” But.”
Da-hye slightly raised her head to look at Si-hyeon’s thoughts of her. Holding in my hand a garbage bag full of bugs.
“If I don’t do this, there’s nothing I can do. Huh? Babe? “Don’t worry, my sister will clean it all up.”
Dirty and fat, she carefully approached Sihyeon’s side her her her her. Si-hyeon, who was once the husband who loved Da-hye the most in the world, quietly but firmly spat out her words as she approached.
“Please. Don’t come any closer than that. Don’t you know that dirty things might spread to my attitude too?”
“Ah. Mi. Sorry. I was short-thinking. I’m cleaning right now, so I won’t go next to you. Hehe.”
Da-hye, whose self-esteem had dropped dramatically after gaining weight, backed away from Si-hyeon’s contemptuous words without much resistance. However, she continued to ask him questions, as if to check if something was preventing her from getting rid of her anxiety.
“But after I’m done cleaning, I’m going to take a shower. Then, are you going to give me a loving hug? That’s right, we’re a good couple. Right?”
“… “
“… “Honey?”
“You clean the living room. “I’m going to clean up the kitchen.”
Si-hyeon did not answer Da-hye’s seemingly clingy question. He slowly began to organize the mess of dishes and food waste on the table. Dallak. Rattling. The sound of dirty dishes hitting each other echoed throughout the house.
“… “Baby.”
Da-hye seemed to be embarrassed by Si-hyeon’s strangely cold attitude of her. She opened her eyes wide and called out to him in a low voice, but that was all she could do. She put on a sad face and went back to cleaning up the living room.
Unfortunately, cleaning the living room was not a problem that could be solved by simply throwing away the trash or sweeping and mopping the floor. Because it had been a mess for several months, traces of mold and cockroaches had seeped deep into the entire bottom of the wall, so there was no way it could be easily cleaned up with something like mopping.
“Huh. Huh. Phew.”
Naturally, Dahye’s physical strength quickly reached its limit as she gained a lot of weight. Sweat flowed from her acne-covered face, armpits, and yellowed arms and legs, making them sticky. A sour and disgusting smell began to emanate from Dahye’s entire body.
“… “
Si-Hyeon, who was checking the condition of her refrigerator, looked at her with disapproving eyes. But Da-hye smiled with her sweat-soaked face and spoke confidently.
“Whoa whoa.” Don’t worry. Babe. Because I will take responsibility and make sure to clean everything up here. Huh. “Huh?”
“Okay.”
Unlike cleaning the living room, where no progress was made, Sihyeon finished organizing the relatively clean kitchen first. He hadn’t eaten anything today, and as soon as she finished cleaning the kitchen, she went straight to preparing to cook, but Da-hye, who didn’t want to divorce, ran into the kitchen to impress Si-hyeon and said that she would cook for her instead. However, as she ran quickly with her heavy body, she fell and several dishes and plates on her table broke.
Click! Wow!
“Ugh!”
Da-hye’s thick legs were scratched by pieces of her broken plate, and blood leaked out here and there.
“… “
Si-hyeon, who was standing in front of the gas stove preparing broth, quietly lowered her head and looked at Da-hye.
“What are you doing now?”
“… “
“Please leave the kitchen immediately.”
“Mi… Sorry. I was wrong baby! I just want to look good… “
“It’s okay, so please leave.” “It looks like you’re hurt, but I’ll clean up the broken dishes.”
“No. Babe. I’ll clean it up. Because I woke up. “I will take care of it.”
“I’m doing it! I don’t trust you. I think I’ll break the plate again while trying to clean it up. I was watching it earlier, and cleaning the living room is not getting any better. What on earth do you know how to do?!”
“… “I’m sorry.”
Da-hye quietly got up at Si-hyeon’s sharp tone and went out to the living room, rubbing her scratches. Tears flowed from the corners of her sweaty eyes, but Sihyeon pretended not to notice.
After a while, Si-hyeon, who had cleaned up all the plates scattered on the kitchen floor and finished preparing the meal, quietly called out to Da-hye.
“Come here and eat.”
The smell of delicious beef soup rose from the kitchen.
“… “
Da-hye, who was crouching in a corner of the living room, carefully got up and approached her table. Her red, bloodshot, and swollen eyes clearly showed how Dahye was feeling right now.
Sihyeon spoke quietly without even looking at Dahye.
“Perhaps you. “Are you feeling unfair now?”
“Hyung. No. I just. Hehe. Hi.”
“Stop crying. Because you are not an unfair person at all. “Do you think you deserve it when you can’t clean up a single mess you made?”
“Huh. But I am.”
“Hey! Dahye Min. I mean Even if you stopped loving me, I thought everything would be okay as long as I could stay by your side and see you. As you said so loudly last time, the reason you ended up like this is ‘my fault.'”
“Hibb.”
“But it’s not enough that you ignore me until the end. Even now, I’m so disgusted by your attitude of just trying to figure out how to avoid getting divorced. All the good will I have done for you so far is ‘Ah. ‘It’s okay to treat him like this, because he’s just this kind of person!’ It’s annoying that he just disappears without notice.”
“… “
“Do you have anything to say?”
“Hibb.”
“Nothing? Okay. Still, it’s good because you don’t make excuses. Let’s get a clean divorce. “I can’t trust you anymore, and I’ve lost all desire to live together.”
“Hyung. Hike.”
“There’s nothing more to say, right? Then, I will divide your property, so when the court concludes the divorce process, please leave this house immediately.”
“Hyung. Me… Hi.”
“Huh? What did you say now? “I can’t hear you clearly, so speak clearly.”
“Ugh. Me! Me! I don’t need any of that property. I don’t know what you’ll think when I say this, but have you thought about it a lot for the past few days? Ugh. But no matter how much I think about it. Hi! Really, no matter how much I think about it, there was no one who loved me and treated me as sincerely as our Sihyeon! Because I will do well! I’m going to lose all the weight, clean my house hard, and find a job again! Huh? Huh? You don’t have to go to work. I will take the AIDS medicine that I was complaining about not taking! So, can’t you stay by my side one more time… ?”
“… “
Sihyeon didn’t say anything for a moment. Soon, a dry word escaped from his silent lips her her her.
“What do you mean?”
In response to his short question her her her, Da-hye sat down on the kitchen floor, knelt down on her knees, and began to beg as if she were begging. The skin of her wrists trembled, a sickening stench rose from her slimy sweat, and her blood trickled from her legs where she had been cut by a piece of her plate.
“My… I’ll do well! Until now, I couldn’t do that because of my pride, but it wasn’t until I got into this situation that I realized. I just need myself. Hi! So please.”〈 Br〉
“… “
“Call me honey again like before.”
“… “
For a moment, Da-hye’s dazzlingly pretty smile from before was pictured in Si-hyeon’s mind. He was troubled.
But Si-hyeon could no longer believe Da-hye’s words her her her. It’s too late. After hesitating for a moment, he frowned and, as if in pain, avoided Da-hye’s gaze and quietly expressed her rejection.
“Sorry. Still, you have to get a divorce. I don’t think I can live with you anymore.”
After saying just that, he sat down at his table and began to eat. Da-hye, who had lost even the slightest hope for her job, quietly moved to the sink.
“Wow. Uwesssss. Uwesssss. Wow. Ugh. “Gurrrr.”
She repeatedly retched at the silver-colored steel sink. The smelly vomit got clogged in the drain and she couldn’t go down, so it stayed there and stained the dishes.
“Huh. Ugh. Hmm… “
Soon, Dahye’s sobbing voice echoed throughout the quiet house. In the space where she was a happy couple, she could no longer hear anything but crying.
Da-hye, who had been crying for a while, stopped crying and looked around her as if resigned. Dirty dishes, food ingredients, knives, pots, and all other cooking utensils caught her eye.
“Ah. Ah.”
Among them, Da-hye looked at the knife with special attention. The blade, which caught the light and became bright blue, was sharp enough to cleanly cut through thick meat.
“Hehe. Hehe. Hehe. Hehe.”
A laugh that was almost like a laugh flowed from Da-hye’s lips. After being abandoned by her sister-in-law, she became overcome with despair and anger and gradually lost control of herself.
She quietly grasped her sword in her chubby hand and slowly lifted it.
Yeah, maybe. This might be able to solve all situations.
“This… This… It. This! Die! Just die! “Die!”
Sigh! Sigh! Sigh! Deep!
Si-hyeon, who was sitting at her table, never imagined that right behind her, a huge woman weighing over 100 kg would stab her in the back of her. After being stabbed with a knife several times, he couldn’t even scream and fell to the kitchen floor, his blood pouring out.
