35 – Do you want to explode?

Episode 35

After roughly kicking Jinah Park out, I called my sister using Bluetooth earphones while driving the car.

Perhaps because it was work time, I answered the phone quickly.

“hello?”

“Hey, sister, I need a little help with something.”

My sister sighed heavily after hearing what I said and said.

“… Ha, what’s going on? “You’re not making me cosplay as a lawyer again, are you?”

“As expected, you have a sharp mind and are quick-witted! “Attorney Seon Dal-rae!”

“Hey, f*cking Rom!”

Laughter flowed from the good response.

“Whoa, calm down. I’m not hoping for anything great. “Just do it similar to last time.”

“… “You’re recording while you’re doing your best on the side, and sometimes you’re making a fuss about the law?”

“As expected, you are the most intelligent lawyer of our time, Seon Dal-rae! “You get straight to the point!”

My older sister must have been so excited by my playful reaction that she started swearing in rapid fire.

Then, after sighing louder than before, he spoke.

“… So what’s the situation?”

I explained everything about who Gaeul was and what kind of crisis she was currently experiencing.

“You too… .”

My sister continued speaking and said.

“So where should I go?”

As expected, my sister had it very easy.

“You can go to Nada Middle School, but there’s no need for you to go there.”

“huh? So, how do you impersonate a lawyer? “It would be difficult to fool you if you just made a phone call.”

As the saying goes, a phone call is not effective. Of course, my sister has to stay by my side.

“sister. Because it’s time to get off work now. “It’s in front of the headquarters, right?”

“Oh, right. I’m out the front door now. … “Hey, really?”

At that moment, I saw my sister in front of the sidewalk. I parked the car roughly, opened the window, and said,

“get on!”

It was a service that came to you.

***

While receiving training, Gaeul received a sudden phone call.

I apologized to the trainer for not putting it on silence and tried to continue practicing.

However, as soon as Autumn hung up, he saw the call again and felt uneasy.

She apologized to her trainer and went out into the hallway to answer the phone.

“Are you the older sister of student Gahyun Yoo?”

He seemed to be Ga-hyeon’s homeroom teacher.

Gae-gul dropped out of high school, but he knew directly or indirectly that it was rare for homeroom teachers to call their guardians for good reasons.

She said after clearing her trembling voice as much as possible.

“… yes. I am Ga-eul Yoo, Ga-hyeon’s older sister.”

“Student Yoo Ga-hyeon assaulted another student. “I think the guardian needs to come now.”

“… ah.”

Autumn felt like falling off a cliff.

“Neither of my parents are responding to calls. “Do you have any contact with your parents?”

Gahyeon’s homeroom teacher asked for contact with her parents as if it were a given.

He probably contacted his father and mother before contacting Ga Eul.

Gaeul’s mother has cut off ties with Gaeul, Gahyeon, and her father, so she won’t answer the phone.

Considering that Gaeul’s father usually answered the phone well, he probably went to a gambling house.

There was no one. It was only fall.

That’s why Ga Eul answered.

“I am Gahyeon’s guardian.”

The homeroom teacher said as if he was embarrassed.

“If you are the older sister of student Ga-Hyeon Yoo, you are a minor, right? “I feel like this is something that requires an adult.”

Adult.

It was something Yu Ga-eul had heard until she was tired of it.

People wanted Yoo Ga-eul to be more adult.

As she said, Yu Ga-eul tried to become more adult.

I held back, gave up, and ignored what I wanted.

Then people praised Yoo Ga-eul, saying she was an adult.

I used the words ‘You’ve grown up’ and ‘You’re an adult now’ as compliments.

However, when the crisis came, they asked for an ‘adult’, not Yu Ga-eul.

An adult who neither tolerated nor gave up.

Autumn spoke to the teacher.

“I won’t be able to contact you. “There are no adults.”

“ha… How do I do this? Do you really have no other guardians? “Something like an uncle or grandfather.”

“I am!”

From noble mtl dot com

The teacher’s irritated words brought out the emotions that had been buried inside Ga Eul.

However, thinking that these feelings were no different from those of a child, she calmed down as much as she could and spoke calmly.

“I am Gahyeon’s guardian.”

It was very difficult for Gaeul to get that one sentence out.

“Please tell me where to go.”

The homeroom teacher sighed softly and told them the location.

“But you still need to keep in touch with adults!”

After hanging up the phone, Gaeul apologized to the trainer and went outside.

After hesitating whether to take a taxi, she headed to the subway to save money.

The subway was full of adults wearing stylish suits.

Each of them was holding a gift, such as a cake or a department store shopping bag, in their hands.

‘What anniversary is it?’

Ga Eul checked the calendar on her budget smartphone.

Only then did she realize that tomorrow was Children’s Day.

‘… ah.’

One man called in a voice full of affection, as if he was talking to his family.

One woman was harassing a man who seemed to be her husband.

It seemed like I bought the wrong gifts for the kids.

And there was a father and daughter walking hand in hand with the sweetest kindness in the world.

When Ga Eul saw that, the tip of her nose suddenly became wrinkled. Tears were forming in the corners of my eyes.

At that time, Sun Taeyang suddenly came to mind.

‘I will become the adult for your child.’

A strange person who calls himself a child and calls himself an adult.

A person who narrows the distance to an embarrassing degree.

A person who kept everything he said, even if it seemed pretentious.

That’s why he’s a reliable person.

Ga Eul picked up her smartphone with trembling hands and called Taeyang.

It didn’t take long for the reception tone to be heard and the connection was established immediately.

“Oh Ga Eul, what’s going on?”

“… .”

When I heard his voice, I burst into tears and choked up with emotions.

But I didn’t want to show Sun Taeyang like that.

“Autumn?”

“… “Team leader Seon.”

“Okay, Gaeul, please speak comfortably. “Do you need my help with this?”

Taeyang’s voice was so kind.

“… “I need your help.”

Because it was in front of the sun, Autumn was able to say things she hadn’t said since childhood.

“help.”

***

“Can’t you see this face?”

A woman in her mid-40s wearing black fur shouted loudly throughout the teacher’s office.

“Is it right to react in such a lukewarm manner when the child’s face is bleeding like this?”

The teacher standing next to her was sweating profusely and tried to calm her down.

“Oh my gosh, Dae-su’s mother, calm down. Because it’s between kids… .”

“With the kids?”

The woman snorted and said mockingly.

“under… “The situation got to this point because the teacher’s attitude was so lukewarm.”

The middle-aged woman said as she put down the bag with the luxury brand logo on the desk.

“This is an absolutely violent incident.”

Every time I spoke, my saggy cheeks shook.

“Shouldn’t we start by discussing how to compensate for this? “The aftereffects and psychological damage must all be taken into consideration.”

The middle-aged woman kept pressuring the teacher as if she could get more money that way. Autumn wasn’t even on my mind.

I hated seeing the flushed cheeks whenever I spoke, the thick makeup, and the shiny forehead due to oil.

“I’ll give you money.”

Autumn couldn’t stand it.

“How much do you need?”

The woman then looked at autumn and spoke.

“her… Kid. “Do you think I’m begging for money now?”

Autumn thought so.

To her, that middle-aged woman seemed like a day robber who wanted to use her position as a victim as a weapon to steal money.

If you are a proper parent, you will send your child to the hospital right away when he or she is injured.

But the woman held up her child’s wounds as evidence and displayed them for everyone to see.

It seemed like the driver was trying to get a little more insurance money by emphasizing to the insurance company that his car was dented.

No matter how you look at it, the intention seemed ugly.

Ga Eul knew from experience that only by bowing her head and apologizing to such a person as much as possible could the level of exploitation be lowered.

But I didn’t want to do that.

It was in front of her younger sister, Gahyeon.

I didn’t want to be seen bowing my head in front of an adult like that.

She didn’t try to become an adult for that.

That’s why Ga Eul held her head high and spoke.

“You are right that you are doing this because you need the money. I’ll give you that money. So just get it over with.”

“That’s Gahyeon’s older sister! First, calm down a little… .”

The middle-aged woman said with her face contorted like a savagery.

“This uneducated b*tch… .”

The woman said, clenching her fists so tightly that a ‘tap-pap-duk’ sound could be heard.

“It’s done. Because I have nothing to talk about with a brat like you. “Please bring your parents.”

“… .”

If her parents had contacted her, Ga Eul wouldn’t have come here alone.

The middle-aged woman, the homeroom teacher, and Ga Eul all knew it.

“Why aren’t you answering? “Are you from a family without such fundamentals?”

“Daesu’s mother, please calm down a little.”

However, the middle-aged woman ignored the teacher’s words and shot out sharp words as if she were a good target to stab at.

“Isn’t there someone who gave birth to you and that? … Aha, were you abandoned?”

In Ga-hyeon’s eyes, he could see Gahyeon’s face looking at him restlessly.

In those eyes, pity, sorry, and guilt.

And it contained sympathy.

Fall hurts more than the middle-aged woman’s shouting, or the homeroom teacher’s subtle ignorance.

She burst into tears.

I felt like I was about to burst into tears.

“Autumn has never been abandoned. Please make your words nicer.”

Then a familiar voice came from behind her.

“If you don’t want to burst like a son.”

It was a sunbeam.
