Narim bowed quickly. Keeping his head down to avoid meeting his eyes, he tightly clenched his fist on his knee.
“I’m sorry, Professor Yoon.”
Today, of all days, he thought that he felt and looked like a beggar.
As soon as the door to the detached house closed, Sunwoo, who had just embraced Eunjae, headed for the sofa. Laying Eunjae on the sofa and quickly removing the shoes he hadn’t taken off yet, Sunwoo fervently kissed Eunjae’s lips.
Even though it was a bit cloudy due to the rain, making the weather somewhat hazy, it was a time when everything was clearly visible. Eunjae’s two cheeks, filled with embarrassment, were already turning red.
“Sunwoo, wait a moment…”
Restraining Eunjae tightly so that he couldn’t move his legs, Sunwoo quickly crossed his arms, lifted his upper garment, and kissed Eunjae’s lips again.
“No one’s here.”
“But that’s not—”
Eunjae’s words were swallowed up by Sunwoo’s mouth. Their breaths entwined in an instant. The scent of the grape-flavored candy Eunjae had forgotten in the car earlier filled their mouths.

Turning around, you’ve never leaned on me. I hoped you would rely on me when you were having a hard time, I hoped you would trust me.
“I’m your daughter, your only family with Mom. Does it make sense that I don’t know?”
“Why are you the only family? My mother-in-law. She’s my family too. Do you think I was comfortable?”
Whenever you do that, you draw an invisible line between us.
“No, I’ll take care of my mom’s house.”
“My mother-in-law.”
“It’s my mom.”
I tried hard not to be a burden to you.
Maybe that’s why. If I turn my back on you, I might become a stranger.
While watching you smile, I can’t be happy, I have to watch you cry from a distance. No, more miserable than just watching from a distance.

Sunwoo took a moment to catch his breath and lowered his gaze. Due to the sudden onset of the rainy season, the weather became hot and humid, and sweat beads were already forming on his forehead.
The precarious sweat droplets fell and tickled Eunjae’s cheek. A small, white hand reached out as Sunwoo wiped away the sweat beads on his forehead. Smiling, she wiped away the sweat bead that had touched Eunjae’s cheek.
You said that to me.
“Why can’t you tell me everything? Can’t we be in pain together?”
Can you say that to me too?
“Why, we’re a married couple.”
Yes, we’re a married couple.
It always felt like that. Even though I was right next to me, if I didn’t tie myself down, it felt like I would fly away, and if I didn’t hold on, I felt like I would miss something.
Unbeknownst to me, Seungcheol’s question shook me again.
“So, I mean, what if Jieunjae finds out about this? How do you think he’ll react?”

How about you? If I say I don’t care.
“In my opinion, Jieunjae won’t be able to stay by your side for long.”
I’m anxious. I’m afraid that bastard might be right. I’m afraid you’ll leave me.
It was when Sunwoo wiped his lips on Eunjae’s white neck, where the blue veins were clearly visible.
“Ah…! Sunwoo.”
Eunjae urgently shouted, tapping his back. Sunwoo slowly lifted his head at her voice. With a frown, Eunjae, who was touching her neck, was visible.
Sunwoo removed Eunjae’s hand covering her neck. Looking at the red bite marks on her white neck, Sunwoo took a deep breath. He stood up, wiping his upper body while doing a dry wash.
It was an unusually fair skin. Knowing this, she had been quite careful lately, but it seemed that she had been caught up in various thoughts, resulting in the visible marks. Judging by the already formed bruise, it seemed that bruising would occur soon.
“It hurts, sorry. I should apply ointment.”
Sunwoo carefully touched her wound with a worried expression.
“Why are you like this? Something is really strange today.”

His fingers, lying beside the bed, swept through the band around his neck as if tickling the area.
His breathing was unusually rough. The force pulling on his lips was more intense than usual. It was closer to the expression of tearing.
The lips that were pressed hurriedly or his impatient actions felt very precarious. Remembering his lips near her neck, she recalled his voice that seemed strangely anxious during the day.
There must be something wrong today…
When I thought that far, a sharp pain was felt.
Today was a series of happiness.
I was able to face my mom, who had become healthier at the hospital before going to the academy. She walked, moved, and recently started exercising within a reasonable limit without a respirator.
All the test results were normal. We also made a promise to eat something delicious in a beautiful place next year.
I also had a conversation with Yerim after a long time.
I wanted to contact her first, but I was anxious that there might be a problem because of what I said. Although I couldn’t tell her all the circumstances, pouring out the stories that had happened recently seemed to relieve her. We ended the call with a promise to meet soon.

Moreover, I was able to work with a famous food stylist who is currently active, and the conditions turned out to be better than I thought. It felt like the result of my hard work and studying.
My mom’s health, determination to get a job before the end of this year, and above all, the love of my husband next to me made me feel happy all day today. It felt like a crack was forming in that happiness.
Because of that.
“Is something really wrong?”
“Why, do I look like that?”
“Yeah.”
Eunjae waited for an answer while looking into his eyes. After staring silently at Eunjae for a while, Sunwoo hugged her silently.
“Nothing.”
Although his eyes that answered couldn’t be seen, it was understandable. Clearly, something happened to him today.
“Should I hug you?”
Eunjae, who was in his arms, lifted her head to look at him and asked. Then, before hearing the answer, she pulled him tightly and embraced him.

Above his firm chest, the sound of his rapidly beating heart was distinctly heard in her ears.
“Someone said that. Sometimes, just being hugged like this can be comforting.”
Before the words could finish, he suddenly embraced Eunjae tightly. It was a warm hug that almost suffocated her, but somehow Eunjae found herself smiling.
Then, his reassuring voice was heard.
“Nothing happened. It will be like this in the future too.”
