Chapter 150 – Chapter 150
“Brother, I’m here.”
Go Min-jeong, who was excitedly entering, stopped when she saw me.
“Brother, why are you lying down like that?”
Ko Min-jeong tilted her head as she saw me leaning back on the sofa awkwardly.
“Huh? No, that’s just it. You worked hard~, our Minjung, you worked hard~.”
“Hee”
I got up from her seat, took her in a hug, and headed to her bedroom.
§
Friends.
“Hey, it’s time to come.”
“So, how are you?”
“Are you doing well? It’s all sucked into the stock.”
“I’m also looking for a good place to jump to die right now.”
Even though we met after a long time, it wasn’t awkward because we were so close.
“By the way, when did Hajun come?”
“Look at the group chat room. Don’t just post dirty memes.”
“Isn’t it wrong to see everything well?”
“I’ve recognized him since Buddy Buddy’s raunchy home page.”
When I met my ball friends, there was nothing but strange things to say.
As they gathered in front of the meeting point and talked nonsense, I suddenly became curious about Oh Ha-joon’s girlfriend.
“Ha-jun is the first among us to get married.”
“Sup, how did you seduce her girlfriend in the country?”
“…Maybe he was the one who worked in the fields.”
The last memory of Oh Ha-joon they remember was high school and the end of the army.
He said he was going to go to the countryside after being discharged, so I’ve only contacted him a few times since then, but never met him.
“Isn’t the kid getting nice and marrying anyone?”
“Because of that.”
Their biggest worry was that the quiet child from school days might have been bitten by a snake in her country.
“If the lady comes, what will she do…”
“But I have to congratulate you…”
“That’s right, right? Let’s congratulate them… And buy them a drink when they come back crying later.”
As they were worrying among themselves, a stout man spoke to them.
“Seokhyeon and Jeongsoo, right? Didn’t Sanghyeon come?”
“…?”
“…?”
They both looked up at him.
“…Is that Hajun?”
“Huh? Uhh. It’s been a while. Really.”
“What, where is Hajun?”
What they remembered was a chubby figure. However, the guy who appeared had shrunk in size.
The circled chin was clear with a line drawn, and much of the figure they knew had disappeared.
“What are you saying, it’s me.”
“Isn’t Ha-joon the only one who doesn’t speak out loud?”
As the friend laughed and joked, another friend next to him tapped his side.
“Oh, why. The person who will be Mr. Jesu hasn’t come yet.”
“I think he came.”
“Huh? Where?”
Behind her, she saw a woman with open, round eyes, with vibrant, dark black hair that grew below her shoulders.
Since she looked like a college student, she thought she had nothing to do with the 30-somethings.
“Where?”
“Hehe, how are you?”
She was wearing a light beige dress, and a woman holding her purse with her hands in the middle of her hands greeted her with a smile that lit up her surroundings.
“…Huh? …It can’t be.”
Anyone can see that I was embarrassed to look like a college student.
“Why…?”
The other friend next to him also nodded his head.
“What…”
§
Go Min Jung.
He said he was going to meet his brother’s friends, so he dressed up to look as innocent as possible.
I wanted to get a good score somehow, so I reacted as much as possible to my friends’ jokes.
“Hee hee, oppa is so much fun! Hee hee.”
“Uh…, Uh… That, I don’t think it was that much…”
When I saw my friends embarrassed, I automatically laughed.
Hehe.”
After ordering food and waiting, other friends arrived and filled the table.
“Huh? Why is this person…”
“Why would a noble person be with such a humble person…”
At their reaction, Ko Min-jung laughed and spoke boldly.
“Hehe, rather, my brother is meeting me who lacks~. My brother is really good to me.”
“… Gulchi… Ha Jun should do well…”
I was proud of myself when I saw my friends look at me with envy.
“Either we were Japanese soldiers during the Japanese invasion of Korea in 1592 or he was a panokseon worker.”
“Both of you, man.”
The dining area had a warm atmosphere. I glanced at Oh Ha-joon sitting next to him, but he was up a lot, probably because of his friends he hadn’t seen in a while.
Hajun Oh continued to maintain a high tension that was hard to see.
It was hard to believe that such a person had been living alone in the countryside for several years.
After the meal, everyone dispersed from their seats.
“Oh, then I’ll see you at the wedding.”
“The proxy has arrived. Let’s go quickly, Ha Jun-ah. See you later.”
After all her friends had left, she held Oh Ha-joon’s hand as he stumbled.
“Brother.”
“Yes?”
He looked at Ko Min-jung with a smile. It was the first time I had ever been so drunk, so I just laughed.
“It’s nothing~. I’m curious about something.”
“Ugh~, what is it?”
He was drunk and his tongue was twisted.
“Brother, why did you leave your friends and come to the countryside?”
“Me? That’s right~. You came to meet our Minjeong~?”
“…”
It was a story that wouldn’t even work. Go Min-jung pulled Oh Ha-joon’s ear while he was drunk.
“Ah, ah, it hurts.”
“Does it hurt? So why did you go to the countryside alone?”
At those words, Hajun Oh let out a light sigh with his pupils slightly widened.
“After.”
“…?”
“Just~, well. I just came~.”
“Ah~, what is that?”
I didn’t ask any more because it seemed like there was something I couldn’t tell you even when I was drunk.
It seemed that the price would not be negligible because there was a distance to call a substitute.
She took him and took him to a nearby motel.
Dump.
I laid him down on the motel bed.
“Uuu~. How can I live without me?”
Oh Ha-joon, wriggling drunk, looked cute. He had never been seen drunk, nor had he drank so much.
He sat down next to him and patted Oh Ha-jun on the stomach.
Oh Ha-jun blankly looked at her ceiling and hugged her.
“You wonder why I came to the country?”
“Neng, I’m curious, but~. He won’t tell you. Well, uh, it smells like alcohol.”
“Whoa.”
He couldn’t even run away from the smell of alcohol by hugging him.
“I just wanted to do music originally, but my father told me to learn technology.”
“Eh? Really? I didn’t know?”
“Ah~, that’s the old days~. I was accepted into college, but I didn’t have the tuition to pay, so I just went to a technical college to learn something.”
It was hard to understand because my tongue was twisted, but I was able to understand.
She told me that she went to college to learn technology because she knew the situation in her family, but she came to the countryside on purpose because she wanted to rebel against her young heart.
“Growl.”
As soon as the conversation was over, I fell asleep.
“…”
After hearing all of her story, she stroked the sleeping Oh Ha-joon’s head.
§
The memory of last night was completely gone.
“Uh… It’s the head…”
My head ached and my stomach was bloated.
“I’ll drive.”
Ko Min-jung took the steering wheel, and I sat in the passenger seat and opened the window to get a cold breeze.
I remember telling them to pour and drink yesterday, but I couldn’t remember from the middle.
“Minjeong-ah, did I make any mistakes yesterday?”
“Yes~, no~. My oppa slept quietly~.”
“As expected, even if I drink alcohol, the injection is clean.”
“…”
Confused with no answer.
After finishing the day’s work with a feeling of dying, this time I went to meet Go Min-jung’s friends.
“Brother, do you still think you’re going to die?”
“…Eh. But it’s okay. I can still live.”
“You’re drinking a little this time. I’m going to drink a lot this time.”
A drinking party headed that way. When I ate with my friends yesterday, it was a meat restaurant, but this time it was a restaurant with a good atmosphere.
That said, it wasn’t a place that made noise because of my age, but it was a restaurant that suited the social media sensibility.
“Hello, my name is Hajun Oh.”
I nodded in order to look as cool as possible.
My friends who saw me greeted me with a smile.
Maybe it’s because they’re college friends, but unlike my friends, they look very young.
“Hello!”
“Congratulations on your marriage!”
I handed out wedding invitations to them first and they congratulated me.
“Minjung, why do you look younger?”
“Hi-Hi.”
“Boyfriend…, Uh… Should I say husband…?”
Being a newcomer to society, I still felt a sense of difference about the title. On the other hand, my friends said that they were Mr. Jesu without hesitation yesterday, so I felt like I felt a generation gap in a place like this.
Haha. Just call it whatever you feel comfortable with…”
“Speak up, you’re much older than us…”
“Kheum, yep, should we just be brothers and sisters?”
It was an awkward atmosphere at first, but as soon as the alcohol started, the conversation was solved.
In fact, there was little room for me to intervene in their conversation.
“No, that’s why we made a bet in front of the school cafeteria.”
“Yeah, right. I remember. I was wondering who would get married first.”
“Minjung and him… No, with my older brother.”
Drinking alcohol made me feel better and it seemed like a mistake had been made.
