Chapter 206 – #206. House
“Brother. Wouldn’t it be better to think about that a little more?”
I was seriously rebelling against my brother’s new house plan.
That was the reason why, no matter how much I thought about it, all I could think of was, ‘Why?’
“No. But since I studied architecture for about 4 years, I really wanted to try it at least once before I die.”
“Isn’t that an impulsive idea?”
“Originally, novels are also childish and rapidly developing cider products that sell well.”
This man who plans to design the house himself, turning his back on all the apartments and villas.
When I asked him if he was saying something like that after finding out where he was going to buy the land, his husband said that he had already completed his exploration of small land for sale on the outskirts of Seoul.
“Naeun. Think about it. The humiliation you’ve been subjected to by the professor so far. Can you return it as it is?”
This was my brother’s plan.
The idea is to buy cheap land at the edge of Seoul and build a house there for all four families to live in.
This man even asked us to go to the office of the professor who taught us.
I thought it was a romantic story, but I also thought it was a risky act.
“It’s difficult to dispose of it later, and if someone like my brother, who has no life support, lives in a house, I’ll be the only one who suffers.”
“I will do the housework really hard. Do I do everything if I ask you to?”
“Ha… I don’t know. No. Well, it’s the money my brother earned, so I’m just saying this and that, but I have to think about the surrounding infrastructure.”
“Even if they say that the location doesn’t matter because my job is at home anyway.”
“We don’t have to go to school either.”
It’s like this now and I’m at home every day, but both of us still had to go to school for about a year.
If you live in a house built on top of a mountain, are you asking me to come and go to school there?
“Don’t worry. By then, I’ll pick you up and drive you to your car every day.”
“I don’t even have a car yet…”
“You didn’t come. It must be coming in from somewhere in the sea.”
My older brother, who had obtained a driver’s license, had gone to the store with me that weekend to purchase a vehicle.
I heard that it takes at least four months.
We were also quite surprised at the fairly long waiting time.
“Haa… But the design is also the design, but you have to think about the construction period.”
“Let’s cut it for six months.”
“Then you think the design will have to come out very quickly? With permission?”
In the case of wooden houses, generally 4 months.
In the case of a concrete house, I knew about 7 months.
My husband got up from his chair and approached me with a triumphant expression.
“I’m doing this because I have a really amazing idea, so listen to it too.”
“Tell me. I’ll listen and see.”
“That’s what you mean…”

A way to convince Naeun who opposes my opinion like Cheol Ongseong.
That was the way I mentioned my job.
When I strongly expressed that it would not be good for me or the children to write in a space where children are present, Naeun’s stubbornness was gradually weakened.
In the first place, Naeun was a white snowflake.
She was still relatively tolerant of the circumstances of the writer Midwinter.
The reason I suggested was that I wanted to create a working space in my house, since renting a separate office or private studio would obviously be a significant expense.
And there was one more project I presented, and I wondered if this one did a more outstanding job in persuading my wife.
That’s right…
“Brother. Come and see this.”
Naeun, who was sitting in front of her computer, was looking around her house with a 3D modeling program.
“I guess this is how the basement feels. Is this right?”
A room with no windows, so breathless.
I shook my head vigorously at the size, which is twice as large as the secret room in my house.
“If you pretend, you pretend. I’m afraid you’re not an avid reader.”
“But really, I don’t think there would be anything better if it came out like this.”
The images shown by most architectural programs are often different from the actual construction.
Does it feel like the [It may be different from the real thing] Phrase written in small letters on the menu board of a restaurant?
“But it’s underground anyway, so it’s an enclosed space, so I guess I’ll just have to pay attention to the lighting, right?”
“It seems to be different depending on the ceiling structure and floor height.”
“I have to go to the office and talk about it now.”
It didn’t mean much to talk about these things among ourselves.
Although we were about to graduate, neither had any practical experience.
Not to mention, we were unaware of the ground characteristics of the land on which the plane was being constructed.
“So are you really going to take this to the professor’s office?”
“I’m going as a customer, so you won’t be scolded.”
Naeun laughed, not sure if my words still hurt her.
“Do you know that oppa is a real jerk when you see him sometimes?”
“It’s actually similar to you.”
Do you know how much I was scared when I saw you in the early days of dating?
But these days, maybe it’s because she’s focused on being a mother, so she rarely curses at me, and she’s building up some culture.
Still, it was hard to bear the days when I had classical music playing in my house all day.
“First, I’ll call the office tomorrow.”
“Are we going together?”
“Of course. Don’t send me alone scared.”
Going in one-on-one, I felt like I was going to have a design time to check the results.
At best, I paid money to enter, but the atmosphere that seemed like I was going to be whipped was a refusal.
“All right. Then. First of all, I will explain only the simple two-line drawings and concepts. What.”
“Isn’t there a discount for disciples?”
“Rather, I think I’ll hear someone say that I’m entrusting the house to another architect, given that I’m from the Department of Architecture.”
I don’t know. I’m going to get rid of it, but where is that?
“At that point, wouldn’t the professor not want to do business?”
“Even if it’s not us, they are good business people. First of all, if you ask the basement what you’re going to use it for, think about what you’re going to say about it.”
In the images we have now created on the computer, it was no different from a bondage club.
A strange pink light illuminated the interior, and various SM play necklaces were hung on the wall.
You can’t carry this as it is.
“Shall we call it a table tennis court?”
“If you look at the width alone, it’s plausible.”
“Then let’s do that for now.”
After grabbing the mouse and moving the screen around, I stopped the screen in the baby’s room.
“Somehow, it’s cute because there are two baby beds side by side. Right.”
“I already searched for something that actually looks like this, right?”
Naeun opened a shopping window and showed it to me, as if she had saved the address of the furniture site.
“It is absolutely beautiful.”
“I know. Be sure to buy this.”
“But before you buy, you have to have a house before you order.”
Objectively, the timing is tight in many ways.
“I’ll try counseling tomorrow and give up if I don’t feel like it.”
“Is it so. Then.”
I decided not to be stubborn because I had a feeling that the family of four could end up on the floor if I overreacted with the plan.
“Still, this house isn’t really bad, either.”
As summer approached, it was not warm enough, and the slightly hot sunlight was shining on half of the desk.
The light reflected on the iron rulers and scales that were not being used and shone brightly.
“It was the best property for the two of us to live in.”
Naeun crossed her arms around mine as if agreeing.
“It’s a bit cramped for four people to live in, so it’s okay.”
“If I had signed a contract for a house other than this one at that time, would it have been okay if I hadn’t moved?”
“Um… No? At that time, the house also had two rooms, but it wasn’t that big.”
“I had to move anyway.”
The contract fee that had to be asked was considerable.
Originally, we moved in with a two-year contract, but less than a year has passed since we will be living here.
“It’s natural to have a separate studio for my brother.”
In the house we designed now, my studio had a separate entrance.
It was like a house with two front doors, but going through the back door was like my studio, and the front was the space where my family would live.
Of course, the children would have to make it impossible to enter, and I planned to write there as if I was going to work from home.
“It must be difficult to work face-to-face with you like this now.”
Maybe one of us will have to watch the kids, so we’ll have significantly less time to work together.
“Still, it’s better than going to work for different companies and seeing each other in the evening.”
“That is true.”
“Brother. If the ride failed, you wouldn’t have come back after working overtime and wouldn’t have seen me?”
“Wow. That’s really depressing.”
When I get home, I watch the kids and their mother all sleep, then I have to go back to work.
In fact, I was well aware that such office workers were common, so I was heartbroken.
“So let’s see each other for a long time before the kids come to see us.”
Two small palms wrapped around my cheeks.
“I was thinking of trying on the costumes at least once before throwing them away…”
I hugged Naeun and headed for the secret room.
