But in the end, Young Suk, without a word, awkwardly fetched the utensils. Then, in front of everyone watching, she put green tea in boiling water.
Hye Mi, who was watching, gave Young Suk a signal, but Young Suk was busy brewing the tea.
“Mother, this green tea needs to be added according to the temperature of the water. You can’t put it in boiling water.”
Unable to understand Hye Mi’s whispering, Young Suk was flustered and floundering.
After a series of twists and turns, she first brought the tea to Ms. Kang. Her hand shook from tension as she set it down.
Ms. Kang lifted the tea cup without a word and brought it to her lips.
She barely took a sip.
Suddenly, Ms. Kang’s loud voice echoed through the room.
“Han Young Suk! Did you just lie to me?”
“WhaWhat? Why are you saying that?”
Seeing Ms. Kang’s sudden outburst, Young Suk was startled and lifted her head to respond.
“The delicate scent is not there, it’s bitter and too hot! I could’ve burned myself!”
Ms. Kang put down the tea cup with a clatter, as if she was throwing it, and yelled.
“If you don’t know, say you don’t know, if you can’t do it, say you can’t, why are you trying to deceive people! Han Young Suk, am I a joke to you?”
“Huh? No, no, why are you saying that, ma’am.”
“Why are you deceiving me when you don’t know a thing about tea?”
Ms. Kang was livid and called for the staff.
“Get these faces out of here! Make sure they never cross my path again.”
Then, Hye Mi quickly turned towards Ms. Kang and spoke.
“Ms. Kang, it wasn’t me, it was just my mother. If you send me out as well……”
“Tsk tsk, like mother, like daughterinlaw. How can they be so selfish and hypocritical?”
Seeing Hye Mi’s actions, Ms. Kang clicked her tongue in displeasure.
“Throw them out at once.”
At Ms. Kang’s command, the staff approached Young Suk and Hye Mi.
“Customers, we’re really sorry but we’ll guide you to the exit. You can only stay here by the invitation of a member, and as you’ve heard, the invitation is no longer valid……”
In the end, Young Suk and Hye Mi had to leave the lounge with the staff, their faces on the verge of tears.
From inside the firmly closed tea room, only the hearty laughter of Ms. Kang and the other women could be heard.
Afterward, mealtime continued.
Do Ha saw a plate of fresh tuna belly in front of Hyun Seo. His gaze kept getting caught by the sight of him just playing with his chopsticks without eating much.
Lucas asked her.
“Hyun Seo. Not eating well? You like tuna.”
“Yeah. I guess I’m not in the mood for it today.”
Hyun Seo, who replied with a slight smile, quietly pushed her chair and stood up. Lucas lifted his head to follow her.
“Where are you going?”
“I’ll be back after a quick phone call.”
“Ah, okay.”
Hyun Seo immediately left the room and went outside the restaurant.
Being a restaurant with a wellmaintained garden, the outside was a neatly trimmed lawn. The sky was getting a bit darker.
“Yes, auntie. Put her to bed first. I won’t be late.”
After a short call, Hyun Seo didn’t go in right away, but stayed in the garden to get some fresh air.
Coming out from the awkwardly suppressed atmosphere inside and taking in the cool air, it felt a bit better.
While she was taking deep breaths in the clear evening air,
From behind her elongated shadow on the lawn, a much taller shadow appeared.
“It’s been a while.”
When she turned around, the silhouette of her exhusband was illuminated by the backlight of a street lamp.
“……”
As her eyes adjusted to the darkness in the backlight, his expression became clearer.
But strangely enough, when she turned around and finally saw his face, his expression was different from what she had imagined before he spoke.
The exhusband had a look that made one think that the past time had been cruel to him as well.
He opened his mouth heavily once again.
“How…have you been?”
Hyun Seo didn’t answer this time either. There were too many answers to the question, yet none that she could tell him.
Memories of the tumultuous times she had experienced while raising Do Hyun alone passed by her.
The memory of giving birth in a place without a husband, the memory of feeling moved by the birth of another precious life, the memory of a newly met baby being so beautiful that it made her more sad, the memory of naming the baby by taking one letter each from the father and mother, the anxiety of making money to feed and dress a child without a father, and raising him no less than those with fathers… those countless memories.
In all those memories, there was no father who had passed on half of the bloodline to the baby.
There was no father to rejoice in the birth together, to admire the toobeautiful child together, to name together, to spend time together.
But what could she say in front of this man?
“Where have you been all this time?”
Covering many answers, Hyun Seo asked him.
“Do I have a reason to tell you?”
“……”
He took a few more steps closer. As he got closer, his face became clearer.
However, when Hyun Seo defensively took a step back, he stopped in his tracks.
Soon after, he spoke in a voice that sounded like a sigh.
“……I found you.”
“……”
Hyun Seo looked up at him with wideopen eyes.
“I’ve been wandering around looking for a long time.”
It was a statement she hadn’t expected at all.
