Chapter 156 – Untidy Mind and Mind (2)
Seo Joo-hwan smiled and took his hand her to the tip of his eyebrows her. Even though he was discharged, it was still a well-rounded salute.
“Steel! Commander, long time no see…”
However, the words did not carry on to the end.
This is because Jeong So-ra, the person receiving the salute, stopped talking.
She had a clear expression of bewilderment on her face.
– Who, who are you?
“… Ok?”
– Oh, sorry. I couldn’t make a good call…
“Sora noona, I am Juhwan.”
At those words, Jeong So-ra widened her eyes. On the screen, her pupils her moved up and down, stared at his face her, then widened again.
Jeong So-ra opens her mouth in a surprised voice, then she says.
– Are you really Seo Joo-hwan?
“Phh. Then why is there a fake Seo Joo-hwan?”
– No, you, Joo-hwan, have changed too much!
Eventually, Jung So-ra showed her surprised feelings by pointing at her across the screen.
“Puhahahaha. How is it, pretty handsome?”
Seo Joo-hwan swiped his chin while turning his phone left and right. When I deliberately wiggled my eyebrows and smiled softly, Jung So-ra let out a giggly laugh.
– Ahaha. Are you really Joo-hwan? Your face is still there, but your personality seems to have changed a bit?
“Hehe. There were a lot of things like this and that.”
-Kick. I’m glad you look good. Did things go well last time?
When I say ‘last time’, I mean the time I broke up with Jung Ha-yeon. At that time, Seo Joo-hwan was drunk on the phone with her at her house. And Jung So-ra listened to his drunken complaints seriously and reserved no advice from her.
Seo Joo-hwan recalled that day for a moment and smiled bitterly, but soon raised the corners of his mouth.
“Thanks to my sister, I solved it well.”
– Oh, so you’re dating again?
“It’s not like that, we’re doing well as friends.”
We got to know each other too deeply to be just friends. Still, good is good, he said thank you to Jung So-ra.
Jeong So-ra smiled happily when she saw Seo Joo-hwan’s bright face in his.
– I’m glad you’re doing well. But are you at home now? Looking at it earlier, it seems that there are other people.
As I turned the phone left and right to hold it, it seemed that the group’s images had passed by.
Only then did Seo Joo-hwan realize that he was not the only one here. I glanced around and saw that everyone was looking this way.
‘Oops. Hayeon.’
Jeong Ha-yeon was obviously looking at the novel, but she was staring at this side before she knew it. She didn’t name it, but from the content she would have known it was her own story about her.
Yu Ji-kyung narrowed her eyes at her puzzling face. On the other hand, Jang Deok-hun was just trying to salute himself, saying that soldiers were amazing.
Among them, Lee Seok-chan was watching with an openly interested face, and when his eyes met, he pointed at himself and appealed to him to be introduced.
Seo Joo-hwan straightened his middle finger at him and left the room.
“Guys, I’ll call you for a minute.”
“Yumma, won’t you introduce me as a friend?”
“What are you doing by introducing me, man! Go away!”
“Pretty sister! I’m Joo-hwan’s best friend, Lee Seok…”
I closed the door behind Lee Seok-chan, who was talking nonsense.
Seo Joo-hwan, who came out to the veranda, continued her conversation with Jung So-ra again while being blown by the night breeze.
– Ah. They were college friends.
“Yes. He’s the cutest guy ever. Because he’s a Casanova, he flirts with a lot of girls.”
– Ahaha. Can I curse my friend like that?
“Swearing, it’s true. I’m telling my sister to be careful too.”
-Foot. Where can I meet that friend?
After saying that, Jeong So-ra smiled strangely. She says, folding her eyes like half moons.
– Hehe. Could Joo-hwan be jealous of your friend?
“No, what was I jealous of…….”
Seo Joo-hwan was taken aback for a moment, then laughed at her mischievous expression.
“Are you kidding me again?”
– Poop. Ahaha. Are you a bit quicker?
Sure enough, Jeong So-ra burst into laughter and she even clapped.
Seo Joo-hwan looked at her with her chubby face her. Would she be that much fun to tease? Come to think of it, he might have learned from So-ra Jeong what she was doing to herself.
She laughed for a while and then winked at her eyes.
– Hey, aren’t you mad? I did it because you were kidding me too.
“What prank did I play?”
– Oh, so were you really jealous? I thought I was joking? Joo-hwan can’t believe he still has his sister his…
“No, that’s a joke… Oh, little Noona, you’re teasing me again.”
– Kick kick kick. OK, I’ll stop.
Anyway, it wasn’t a sister who was hard to deal with, but something.
Seo Joo-hwan shook his head as if he couldn’t help it and let out a sigh. I’m in a position to make fun of other women, but I didn’t think this sister would dare to do it no matter how much time passed.
‘I don’t even do this to Suhee noona.’
In terms of age alone, Lim Soo-hee was older than Jeong So-ra, but that was the case. Is there such a thing as compatibility? Or is it because she is the first woman she experienced.
Seo Joo-hwan immediately let out a smile. She wondered what it would be like if her partner was Jung So-ra and she was teased by him. Rather than the cold weather during her active career her, like the north wind and cold snow, the playful and friendly image of her older sister her was better.
– How have you been?
“Me?”
– Yes. I heard that a lot of things happened earlier.
“It was a lot. As for what happened…….”
Seo Joo-hwan continued the conversation with Jung So-ra. Mainly he spoke and So-ra Jeong listened.
– Ahaha. I see.
“Yes. So I avoided dressing up. Instead, I went to a talent show.”
It had been three months since I hadn’t seen her face, but there was no awkwardness with her at all. Come to think of it, she was one of the women he spent the most time with her, even before her return her to Jeong So-ra. The special environment of the military allowed that amount of time.
Seo Joo-hwan said, and Jeong So-ra often burst into laughter as she listened to her story.
In mid-May, the night breeze mixed with the clear spring energy tickles the tip of your nose. Maybe it’s because she’s been drinking. Despite the dark evening sky, the wind seemed to carry the scent of spring. One day, like the day in the dormitory, I felt the sun seep into my heart. It feels like my head, which has been complicated all day, is a little cooler.
“So it is… Oh, that happened yes. Actually, I was the one who solved that hidden camera problem in college.”
Seo Joo-hwan felt a little embarrassed even after saying it himself. He inadvertently boasted like a child.
However, Jung So-ra reacts by opening her eyes wide, as if really surprised.
– Wow. You almost got into big trouble. I’m glad it worked out. So what happened to your friend?
“He took a leave of absence. Maybe she went home I think I’m still writing. I read what he wrote, and he was quite talented.”
– Ahaha. Joo-hwan is a great person. Well, you had that side even when you were in the military. That’s why I made him the squad leader.
At those words, Seo Ju-hwan narrowed his eyes for a moment.
Did he ever serve like a big man during his military life his? He certainly tended to coordinate opinions rather than rage with his successors, and to direct rather than give orders.
But it wasn’t because he was a big man.
Seo Joo-hwan scratched the corners of his eyes and said.
“Haha… Back then, it wasn’t because he was a big crowd, it was because he was timid and lacked confidence.”
– Write it. I know it’s like that if it’s my sister.
“Even if you say so…….”
When he still denied it, Jeong So-ra frowned.
She speaks in her tone of her, which is soon calmed down by her mischievous attempt to get over it.
– Joo Hwan-ah, you were timid at that time, but you said what you said, and even if you weren’t confident, you did the best job. Rather, I was timid and thought a lot. That’s why I didn’t take the absurdity back to the other kids. Likewise, I was not confident, so I always paid attention and tried harder.
“…….”
– Do you remember when we stayed out? You drank with me Did I say that even then? I’ve gotten a lot of help from you. Can you tell me more When you were sick…
“That, stop. Okay, so you can stop, sister.”
Seo Joo-hwan hurriedly cut off Jeong So-ra.
The playful, sincere praise made my face hot. He thought that he was pitiful, but someone else evaluated him so highly. I felt even more embarrassed because of the gap between them.
Jung So-ra smiled at his reddened face.
-Kick. It’s cute.
“Stop it, really.”
– I should. If you do more, your face will explode.
“… It’s because I’ve been drinking.”
– You will.
“Oh really. Uh……”
I want to refute, but it’s already a lost game, so it’s only a self-killing.
Seo Joo-hwan sighed deeply at the teasing he had been teasing for a long time.
Jeong So-ra giggled at him and suddenly blinked.
She says, frowning.
– It’s been too long since I called you for a second. Anyway, Joo-hwan.
“Yes.”
– Didn’t you forget your promise?
“Yes?”
Seo Ju-hwan’s head tilted in one direction. At the same time, Jeong So-ra’s face his crumpled horribly.
For a moment, Seo Joo-hwan thought of her during his time as a company commander, so he gasped and breathed in her.
Jung So-ra soon made a pretty smile and spoke with a smile on her face.
– Give me 3 seconds. Think carefully. Three.
Jung So-ra raised her three fingers.
“No, sister, of course I know.”
– This.
Middle finger folded
All that remains is the thumb and forefinger.
Seo Joo-hwan used the ‘blessing of concentration’ to recall the ‘promise’.
[Used 10LP.]
[The effect of ‘Blessing of Concentration’ increases ‘Concentration’ and ‘Thought’ for 1 minute.]
“Whoa, sister. Because I haven’t forgotten I was kidding.”
-Work.
Only one thumb left.
In an instant, Seo Ju-hwan’s mind, which had entered a state of concentration, brought out a memory from him.
“My promise tomorrow! Right? We were supposed to meet in May. Haha.”
Seo Joo-hwan hurriedly continued his speech and exhaled secretly.
For a while, he had a lot of events and thoughts, so he completely forgot about it, but he promised to meet Jeong So-ra in May.
I’m glad I remembered something before the countdown ended.
Jeong So-ra smiled brightly and flipped her thumb.
What do you mean look down?
– Ding. The promise is the day after tomorrow, not tomorrow. My Joo-hwan, I forgot the promise I made with my sister. Did you grow up a lot?
You meant to kill me

When Seo Joo-hwan returned to the room, his eyes gathered. Unexpectedly, it was Jang Dun-hoon who asked him the first question.
“Brother, he was wearing a military uniform earlier. Is he a soldier?”
“Right. When I was in the army, he was a company commander.”
“Five. Do women even serve as company commanders?”
“I can do it. Although rarely. Sora noona was a bit of an oddity among female soldiers. Quite a few men won’t even be able to deal with it.”
“You are a wonderful person.”
“Kuk-kuk. You are the most beautiful woman I have ever seen.”
Jeong So-ra herself had a hard and strong side, but she was also overwhelming in her talent as confirmed through the desire system.
Shooting, fighting, commanding, charisma.
Even just listing them out gives the impression that they can get seriously hurt if they mess with them. On top of that, she even had her talent for’her condescension’, so she completely hid her usual playful and lively side of her, so it was impossible for her company members to look down on her as her woman her.
At that time, Jeong Ha-yeon, who was reading a novel, glanced at Seo Joo-hwan and said,
“You seem to be very close.”
A plain voice with a plain tone. But somehow it sounds chilly, maybe it’s just because it’s stabbed with a lever?
Seo Joo-hwan flinched, stiffened, then smiled awkwardly.
“He helped me a lot when I was having a hard time. Oh, rather than helping, should I say that I treated you without prejudice? Didn’t Ha-yeon tell you that too?”
“… Oh, you’re the one who said that.”
Jeong Ha-yeon blinked her eyes as if he had just remembered her.
While talking about the past, Seo Joo-hwan told me in great detail what kind of life he had been leading up to now. Among them, there was a story about the ‘misfortune’ that I had been through, and there was also a story that I suffered quite a lot in the army because of it. In the process, the story of Jeong So-ra, who looked at him without prejudice and led him, had to come out, so Jeong Ha-yeon could also think of that ‘cool company commander’.
But if there was one thing you didn’t know.
“You must have been a woman.”
“Oh, didn’t I tell you?”
“Yes. I didn’t.”
“Haha… I guess I didn’t feel the need for it.”
In fact, I deliberately didn’t talk about gender. There is no need to talk about other women to resolve old feelings with Jeong Ha-yeon.
At that time, Yu Ji-gyeong called him with her smiley face.
“Brother brother.”
“Yes?”
“I want to drink raccoon water.”
“Water? You are there.”
He raised his finger and pointed at the plastic bottle on the table. However, Yoo Ji-kyung shook her head and spoke again with a smile on her face.
“No, the raccoon wants some cool water.”
“…….”
You can take it out of the refrigerator and eat it, I couldn’t say.
Yoo Ji-kyung was always playing cute and playing the tune of Nook Nook Nook, but now his smile made me feel very scared. Maybe even more so than Jeong Ha-yeon. Probably because she was swearing silently with her smile on her face.
‘I’m afraid of my talent….’
To communicate thoughts without words, is it telepathy?
He calmly brought me water.
*
The four of them left Seo Ju-hwan’s house before it was too late. Jang Deok-hoon returned home first at the fork in the road, and the remaining three headed to the smoking area.
A man and two women silently smoking cigarettes.
The man takes turns looking at the two and then clicks his tongue.
“Tsk tsk.”
The two women reacted immediately.
“Lee Seok-chan, do you want me to pull out your tongue?”
“That’s good, sister. I will help you too.”
Lee Seok-chan took a step away in disgust, and he immediately extinguished his cigarette and said,
“I’m going first, you guys.”
“Who’s the fat one!”
“I don’t know about you, but I’m not a badass!”
Lee Seok-chan ran away, and Jeong Ha-yeon turned her head to Yoo Ji-gyeong.
“… Ji-kyung?”
“You?”
“Do you want to get scolded?”
“… Sorry.”
“Okay.”
The two women took out a cigarette again in silence. And asked again. The series of movements were similar as if they were sisters.
However, the actions and facial expressions that followed were a little different.
Yoo Ji-gyeong, with a sullen face, said, “I have to play the master… ‘She muttered her incomprehensible words, and Jung Ha-yeon smoked her cigarette with her face lost in thought of something in her, and exhaled smoke like her sigh.
