“Yes, I will look around a bit more and decide. Yes. thank you.”

It’s already been 4 days since I went to look around the house for a move, and after I finished calling with the real estate agent, a plump sound came into my ear while I was lying in bed. Someone was knocking on the door.

“Yes, I am leaving.”

In front of the door stood Midsummer, a girl who had saved me a room a few days ago because I was pitiful. The face he saw after 4 days was still hazy.

“What’s up.”

I’d also throw in a check card with money in it. It wouldn’t be inconvenient.

“What are you doing, uncle?”

Midsummer, who had a harsh expression on her face, asked.

“job? no. It’s white.”

“No, I didn’t ask that… … .”

At my answer, Midsummer blinked like a crucian carp and opened her mouth.

“What kind of program are you filming for this? Something like accusing runaway youth and edifying them.”

“What?”

“It’s strange. What in the world is a beggar who finds a room for a runaway teenager who is not familiar with it, and throws a card because that is not enough? While I was running away from home, I met a lot of people, but this is the first time I’ve met someone like that.”

“okay? Sorry for the inconvenience.”

“No, not like that! What does he really want from me? Are you some kind of undercover cop if you’re not even a broadcaster? If not—”

Midsummer’s hand grabbed my wrist as I was about to close the door.

“You said I thought it was because I thought my dream would be messed up.”

“When do you think it will get better?”

“I don’t know.”

When I think about what happened at the jjimjilbang that night, it feels like every corner of my heart sinks eerily.

“Huh, then can I stay here for the rest of my life?”

“If you wish.”

“No, this guy has to say something real, where does the money come from?”

“Yeah, Bitcoin is huge. So you don’t have to worry.”

After saying that, I closed the door again.

“Come on, wait a minute!”

Midsummer hurriedly shoved her hand between the gaps in the door and shouted urgently.

“I will ask one last question and stop. Hey, what are you doing during the day? You seem to be going somewhere in the morning.”

I was debating whether or not to tell them, but I decided to be honest because I thought I would continue to annoy them.

“I went to see the house. Because of the move.”

In an instant, Midsummer’s gaze rose like a bubble. As if hesitating somewhere, he swallowed his saliva, but looked straight into my eyes and continued talking.

“Well, I’ll help. It’s not much better to watch together than to watch alone.”

“you? Why all of a sudden?”

Midsummer’s speech was closed.

“I’m fine, so do your thing. I will treat you like a person without you.”

“… … If I were the person I would be, would I be here now?”

Midsummer lowered his head and muttered softly. He gripped the cuffs with his bloodless fingers for a moment and wiggled, then opened his mouth as if to vomit.

“I’m also ferocious, dreamer. And I do it because I think it will become more ferocious if I stay like this in the future.”

* * *

After breakfast, we toured the houses the broker had introduced us one by one.

“I think the interior looks good… … .”

Midsummer, sniffing around the house, opened the window wide.

“When I asked what the smell was, there was a meat restaurant right below. It wasn’t cheap for nothing.”

“That’s right.”

In midsummer, I did not miss a single flaw while thoroughly inspecting the properties to the extent that it felt a bit excessive. Thanks, but it’s convenient for me.

“What is it?”

Midsummer noticed my gaze and wrinkled the bridge of his nose.

“I want you to look closely.”

“Is it helpful?”

“So embarrassing.”

While I was leaving the house filled with the smell of meat and moving to another house, I decided to ask what was bothering Midsummer.

“… … Are you okay with this? What if I get caught on CCTV while walking around?”

“If it were them, would I be here now? And before you say anything to me, think about what they are doing.”

I’m concerned about ‘the bastards’ that occasionally come out of that kid’s mouth. Are you talking about your parents?

But I decided not to ask any further questions.

“Ah yes. Yes. I’m going to that house, yes. I’ve already finished talking with the landlord, and I’ll see you tomorrow.”

After talking to the real estate agent, I lifted my head and looked carefully at the house I was going to live in.

First of all, one room. However, a glass partition placed in the corner separated the three spaces: the living room, the kitchen, and the bedroom.

The white walls with faint stains and the ivory wooden floor beneath them were simple but comfortable, and I also liked the quiet alleyway reflected through the windows.

The only flaw was that it was a bit out of town, but it was satisfactory enough. If I looked further, it would be difficult to find a property like this, so I had no choice but to sign a contract.

… … Still, I thought I’d spend a few weeks looking at the properties. The plan went awry thanks to a little boy who turned on the lights and searched for things for sale.

Moving in two days later, even if it was a move, there was no plan to bring the furniture or clothes from the previous house, so it is effectively moving in with bare hands.

“What were you dragging on with something that could be finished so quickly?”

“That’s it.”

On the way back to the motel, Midsummer kept talking to me.

“excuse me.”

“yes.”

“What are you going to do tomorrow?”

“I will lie down. Because there was nothing to do thanks to someone.”

Midsummer, who blinked his eyes as if he was absurd at my answer, quickly adjusted his posture and slowly opened his mouth.

“He, he doesn’t do things like moving things—”

“Hey.”

I cut off the midsummer horse. I didn’t want to say anything bad, but it was because I needed to clear this up and go.

“I don’t want to help you. I have neither the ability nor the will to do that.”

The footsteps of midsummer stopped.

“Have you ever thrown a sausage to a stray cat? It’s similar, I’m pretending to be nice without taking responsibility to make my heart feel a little more comfortable.”

“… … Why are you saying things like that out of the blue?”

“I hope you don’t make any strange misunderstandings such as repaying favors.”

“excuse me.”

This time, Midsummer’s voice interrupted me.

“I knew that a long time ago, and like I said before, I don’t think of myself as a good person over there. Rather, I suspect that he is a strange person.”

His sharp voice gave me a very satisfying feeling.

“But when we go out, we don’t have any money. You have to sleep in the restroom of Jamdo Park, and you have to starve or eat while watching the food service. It’s been a long time since I’ve slept and ate so well.”

“Then just—”

“But I don’t want to take this for granted!”

A rusty, cracked voice drifts through the air. Even Midsummer himself had a sense that he couldn’t believe that such a sound came out of his throat.

“I know, it was only funny to say things like that with this little guy.”

Midsummer with her head bowed quietly murmured. There seemed to be a slight but clear anger in his voice.

“… … But if something comes, something must go. That’s how it should be. Because I don’t want to be like those bastards.”

That’s a huge piece of sophistry. Everything is so messed up, I don’t even know where to start.

But I have no right to criticize this guy. Because I also picked him up with sophistry logic.

“Do what you want. I’m not going to listen anyway, because it hurts my mouth to say more than that.”

“then-“

“But even so, there is nothing you can do to help. I just brought things like moving stuff away.”

* * *

To have a headache.

it hurts, it hurts Why did this happen?

“Garyun-ah, did you contact that bastard?”

“Oh, no. I haven’t slept since yesterday and I’ve been sending text messages, but the 1 doesn’t disappear. Phone too… … .”

Yu Ga-ryun, with her smartphone in her hand, trembled and answered Chae Seol-ha’s question.

“Are you Minseo?”

“Uh… I’m still betting, but there’s nothing that can be called a harvest… … .”

At those words, Dasom, who was next to him, burst into tears. Nails that had been bitten and messed up were arousing the nervousness of the onlookers.

“Where is Dojin trembling right now? No matter how summery it is, does it make sense to not come home for two days? What is Dojin’s rice? bath? sleep? The child wouldn’t be able to do anything alone. Black, Dojin-ah… Do Jin-ah… … .”

He shook his head at the rushing pain.

Yoo Ji-jin, why are you leaving the company all of a sudden? Since my business is on track, I won’t be short of money like I did back then, and I reduced the intensity of my work by taking care of you.

I didn’t expect much from you in the first place. I just told you to stick your butt in the office. Was that such a difficult request?

“Hey, it’s Dojin-hyung. Maybe they blocked our number?”

“What? Poor girl, what a nonsensical thing to say.”

Chae Seol-ha responded to Yu Ga-ryun’s worrying question, waving her palms.

block? that guy? nonsense.

There must be some reason. It was because he was upset over a trivial matter, or he was caught up in a strange incident. Okay, now there’s nothing to be surprised about.

As before, it will come back after some time passes and your head cools down a bit. After all, he has nowhere to go except here, so that bastard.

… … But, how long do I have to wait this time?

Chae Seol-ha ruffled her hair. swept and swept again.

He didn’t come home, so he must be sleeping in a motel or jjimjilbang. But what if the person looking at the desk is a woman? What if you secretly seduce Yudo-jin with the master key? What if you are terrified? if not.

What if that bastard attacks other women?

When I thought of that, I felt like I was calming my mind as opposed to chasing.

“If you’ve been blocked, you can change your number.”

“yes?”

He continued speaking calmly to Yu Ga-ryun, who asked with a bewildered face.

“You can make a number. What can I do to buy a lot of cell phones? I’ll go as soon as the dealership opens tomorrow morning.”

“Ah, that’s good… … .”

Min-seo Oh heard what Chae Seol-ha said and twisted her mouth.

“Okay, I think it’s a good idea, Seolha. Dojin, these days, I’m obsessed with Bitcoin or whatever, so I can’t help but look at my phone even if I don’t like it… … . So, let’s stop talking now and go out and find Dojin like yesterday. Report it to the police too. What if other women do bad things to our Dojin?”

“No, that’s right. Okay, so let’s go out now.”

The four girls rose from their seats and took another step towards the late-night street.

Yoo-jin, where are you now?

If you’ve ever been seduced by a strange woman, come to your senses now. because it’s a scam

you don’t know There is no other place other than here that will accept a bastard like you. that everything i do is for you

I’m never going to fix your resignation card.

You come back here to work. As usual… … with joy.

So.

Hang in there.
