“I said I’d go if you sent me the meeting place, but he stubbornly came to the hospital. Well, that was fine.”
“Narim, I’ve made a dinner reservation at the hotel. Let’s go there.”
In the unexpected touch of Hoseok’s hand on her shoulder, Narim felt discomfort.
Not wanting to say something that might hurt her feelings, she forced a smile, twisted her shoulders, and lowered them. It wasn’t the best response, but she thought it was the best at the time.
Arriving at the hotel he had booked in advance, Narim smiled bitterly.
“They say the Hallabong Sorbet here is really delicious.”
W Hotel. Taekyu’s face inevitably rose in her mind.
Am I crazy? Why did I even think of bringing you here?
Just looking at you was enough. But since you were within reach, I wanted to touch and hold you.
I didn’t know that stepping into his territory without permission would have such a severe consequence. It was all born out of my own greed.
How nice it would have been if the man sitting across from me was him. Filling her mind with useless thoughts, Taekyu’s image lingered in Narim’s mind for a long time.
When coffee arrived as a dessert after the meal, he asked.
“Narim, were you originally a nurse?”
Originally, I was a doctor, but due to unavoidable circumstances.
There was no reason to unfold a long story, so I answered concisely.
“Yes.”
“Do you plan to continue after marriage?”
“Is there a law that says you have to quit your job after marriage?”
“Oh, I’m sorry if it made you uncomfortable. Narim, like you, my parents were really busy when I was young. Looking at my mother, I often thought it would be nice to be an wife who could enjoy hobbies and live leisurely with children.”
Ah, it was too sharp. Perhaps I overreacted because of the conversation I had with my mom not long ago.
“No, I was sensitive.”
“It might sound that way. I understand, really. I’m not forcing anything. It’s just my view on marriage.”
The more they talked, the more Narim felt they had a lot in common. My father, who was in the legal profession, was the same, and being lonely because I was an only child was the same.
In fact, if I were to get married, I wanted to raise a child with my own hands. There were many shortcomings in that regard. It seemed like our views on marriage were somewhat similar.
“Narim, how about we meet with the premise of getting married?”
Nevertheless, it was difficult to accept his sudden sincerity. Although he was a good person.
“I actually had a heart transplant when I was young. Didn’t my mom tell you that?”
“……”
“I have to take immunosuppressants for the rest of my life. Strenuous exercise that puts a strain on the heart, stress. Not to mention regulating food—”
“Narim, do you not like me that much?”
“What?”
“I like you regardless of that. As long as Narim is okay, I don’t care.”

After taking a shower, Eunjae’s eyes were red.
Planning to go for a walk even though her swollen eyes looked pitiful, she found that heavy rain was pouring outside.
The walk was canceled, and feeling like she needed to lighten the mood, when asked if there was something she wanted to eat, she said she wanted to drink the wine she had yesterday. She managed to drink half a glass and changed the subject.
“How about samgyetang as a side dish… is it okay?”
“There’s a white wine that goes perfectly with samgyetang. It has a rich tropical fruit aroma and a pleasant acidity that complements the richness of oily food.”
“Wine expert, that sounds good.”
“Alright.”
Speaking like a wine expert, Eunjae followed behind Sunwoo with a chuckle.
Late at night. In the detached house, there were only Sunwoo and Eunjae.
Yoon Kang and Eunjeong took advantage of a long weekend to go on a trip. When Sunwoo asked where they planned to go, they just smiled and got in the car.
Mrs. Seongsan prepared a meal for them to enjoy quietly in the detached house. Sunwoo, who wouldn’t easily miss such an opportunity, was delighted.
Looking at the steaming samgyetang, Eunjae, who had been quietly watching the rain through the window, spoke.
“See, I told you there would be an early monsoon this year, right?”
“Not only that, but it’s supposed to be quite long.”
“Hmm…”
Eunjae’s gaze, resting on her chin, turned back to the window. For some reason, her face seemed full of worries.
“Why, do you hate the rain?”
“No? I like rainy days too. Since I’ll buy you rain gear, let’s play together tomorrow?”
Eunjae’s lips, which touched Sunwoo’s ear, whispered softly.
“Just wear rain gear.”
“Pervert.”
“What were you thinking? I said not to use an umbrella.”
Sunwoo lightly flicked Eunjae’s nose, accepting her invitation. Maintaining a touch that seemed to be within reach, he gathered Eunjae’s lips with his thumb.
“I don’t need both. If you get wet, you’ll take care of it yourself.”
“…”
“Shall I fill the bathtub with water and wait like last time?”
“Go ahead.”
Eunjae pushed the samgyetang bowl toward Sunwoo, scooped a spoonful into the bowl in front of her, and hesitated for a moment.
Eunjae’s spoon went into her mouth.
