A few days ago, after the summer rain, the real heat began. In the scorching August sun, the cry of cicadas echoed relentlessly outside the window. And inside the small room, there was laughter so happy that it could bury the sound.
Eunjeong and Seongsan were lying on the mat, unable to take their eyes off Seonjae, who was fidgeting.
He was a dutiful son who, right after turning 100 days old, stopped breastfeeding at dawn and slept through the night. Not long ago, the whole family was in a stir because he flipped over for the first time.
“Professor, you did the flip around this time too. You just flipped over like you were taking out a plug.”
“Do you remember that? It’s so amazing to me too.”
If you say that, Eunjae might feel hurt. When Seonu, who was quietly making formula on one side of the room, spoke up, Taegyu, who was leaning against the baby bed, said, “It’s not wrong, he really made his sister-in-law suffer.”
“Did I make her suffer? Where’s a husband as good as me? Do you think this is easy?”
“Bluffing.”
“What? Bluffing?”
Lately, when he watched the two bickering, Eunjae couldn’t help but laugh. He had thought that if the two were put together, it would be quite an interesting picture, and that expectation wasn’t too different from what he saw now.

No one elaborated on their feelings that day, as if they had promised to understand each other’s emotions. The two naturally returned to their previous relationship, albeit with a bit of cheesy banter.
Pointing to the two who were still squabbling, Eunjae opened the door wide. Then, looking at Seonu and Taegyu alternately, she said, “I’m not at all upset, our husband is doing very well.”
“… … … …”
“… … … …”
“But you two are too noisy.”
After that, she pushed Seonu and Taegyu out into the open doorway.
“If you’re going to fight, go out and fight.”
Eunjae’s words were met with a grumble from Eunjeong and Seongsan, who knew it was coming. Chased out to the living room, the two looked at each other, burst into laughter.
The faint smell of formula wafted from Seonu’s messy hair and clothes, which he had never seen before.
“Wow, it’s something to see and live for a long time. The day has come when I smell formula from my brother’s clothes.”

It was also surprising that Taegyu, who usually slept a lot and skipped meals, came early in the morning to see his nephew.
“You came running at this hour just to see your nephew.”
Both of their appearances were unfamiliar to each other.
As Seonu placed freshly brewed coffee in front of Taegyu and took a seat opposite him, Taegyu leaned towards Seonu as if he had been waiting and asked, “Hyung, let me ask you one thing.”
“What is it?”
“Did you propose to Eunjae?”
“Of course, why do you ask?”
“Did Eunjae say okay right away?”
“Yeah.”
Eunjae accepted it right away? When Taegyu asked with a puzzled expression, Seonu, without giving any special answer, raised one corner of his mouth and drank his coffee.

“Well… How did you do that?”
“Think about it yourself, man.”
The seat has been empty for too long. I need to check it out. Swigging down his coffee, Sunwoo quickly got up from his seat, and Taekyu followed closely behind.
“Don’t do that, give me some tips. I’m dying of curiosity.” Glancing at Taekyu, who was following him like a shadow, Sunwoo smirked, chuckled, and uttered quietly, “Sincerely, with passion.”
The waves crashed, and the white sandy beach sparkled under the hot sunlight.
Under the parasol’s shade, lying on a sunbed and sipping a cocktail resembling the blue sea, women who appeared from somewhere surrounded Kwon Seungcheol. He smiled contentedly, revealing his white teeth.
“Wake up.”
Happiness from a dream was shattered by a single thick and heavy voice. Slowly opening his eyes, Kwon Seungcheol frowned under the glaring sunlight.
“You’re sleeping so deeply like this. When are you going to repay the debt if you sleep and rest like this, huh?”
He was one of the men who brought him here. The sunlight, which had been interfering with Kwon Seungcheol’s view due to his bulk, was now entirely blocked. Kwon Seungcheol swallowed his saliva with a gulp, slowly raising his hefty body.
He had a sweet dream for a moment. A golden future I had painted.

Upon waking up, the emerald beach had disappeared, replaced by vast salt flats and the pungent smell of salt that pricked his nose.
There was no time to rest. When he first came here, it was winter, so he occasionally did salt field work during the day and mainly did odd jobs like cleaning. But when summer came, the intensity of labor increased.
From early morning, he gathered salt under the scorching sun. Just when he thought the work was done, he had to carry the collected salt to the warehouse and then transfer it to the truck that went to the mainland. And repeat.
Moreover, on a day like today, if he dared to be distracted even for a moment, men in black suits, who seemed to be watching him from somewhere, appeared and pressured him.
“X! I can’t live like this, I can’t live like this!”
