Eating and drinking coffee with Ha-jun Kang… … Eunyul was shocked by the fact that that time was quite sweet. As this kind of thing kept happening, including the conversation I had with Kang Ha-jun in the early morning, I was overcome with a strange feeling and couldn’t escape it.
“Eunyul.”
“yes? yes.”
Eunyul awkwardly raised her head when she heard a voice calling her.
“are you okay?”
“What?”
“I think he was really stiff when he saw me just now.”
Eunyul shrugged her shoulders as if she didn’t know anything. She actually knew how I behaved, but she didn’t want to talk about it.
“Why did you call me?”
“You should wear your seat belt.”
“Oh, that’s right.”
Eunyul hurriedly pulled on her belt to fasten it, but it didn’t work.
“calm down.”
Kang Ha-jun, who was worse off, put his hand on Eun-yul’s shoulder. While Eun-yul was frozen by the hand covering her shoulder, Kang Ha-jun spoke as if to comfort her.
“Don’t pull it so hastily, try lowering it slowly.”
“uh… … yes.”
Eun-yul exhaled twice and slowly pulled down the belt again in front of Kang Ha-jun.
“Dad, you’re good. “Dad, you’re good.”
As Haneul, who was watching from behind, cheered, Eunyul quickly fastened her belt, wondering what she was doing.
“good job.”
“Am I being praised for wearing a belt just now?”
“Originally, it was said that the more detailed the praise, the better.”
“I see. “It felt good.”
When Eunyul gave up on half of the questions and roughly guessed the other half before moving on, Haneul clapped her hands and was happy.
And Kang Ha-jun happily accepted it as he started the car.
“I will continue to praise you a lot in the future.”
I didn’t mean to ask you to continue. However, it was too troublesome to correct them one by one, so Eunyul just turned his head to the other side.
“dad.”
“Yes, sky.”
“When you get home, can’t you just hug me and roll around?”
“okay. “I will do it for you.”
“how many? Ten times? “A hundred times?”
“If Heaven wants, I will do it a thousand times.”
When Eunyul accepted it as if she would do anything, Haneul burst out laughing as if she liked it.
“What is rolling?”
Kang Ha-jun, who had been listening quietly, asked.
“It’s a sign from Haneul and I, so we hug and roll around until we go to sleep. “We look at each other, talk, play, and then sleep.”
“ah… … .”
When Kang Ha-jun responded as if he understood, Eun-yul straightened up and sat down. It was definitely nice that the awkward atmosphere didn’t last long because Haneul was there.
“Let’s go take a shower and do it in bed.”
Eunyul felt sorry for not paying attention to Haneul today, so she planned to hug the child until he fell asleep.
At that time, Haneul unexpectedly spoke to Kang Ha-jun.
“Uncle, do you want to join us?”
“me too… … together?”
Hajun Kang looked at Haneul in the rearview mirror and glanced at Eunyul as well.
I just heard what Dungurr is, and I can’t believe I’m in it.
Eun-yul was just as embarrassed as Kang Ha-jun, so he said to Haneul.
“Sky, that’s our signal. So, I can’t do it with my uncle.”
“why?”
“hmm… … Because family, it’s just for each other.”
When Eunyul mentioned family, she noticed Kang Hajun’s gaze. He’s saying he’s not family, but that took a while.
There are too many things involved for us to assume that we are just living together for three months.
“Then when will we become family?”
When Haneul asked a question while poking her plump lips with his index finger, Eunyul froze and couldn’t say anything.
What is so difficult about the question of when we will become a family and why it is so difficult to answer?
“Sky.”
Kang Ha-jun called out to the sky on behalf of Eun-yul, who could not answer.
“Yes, uncle.”
“Can you wait a moment? “Next time, I’ll try to get my uncle to join in on the rolling, too.”
Eun-yul looked back at Kang Ha-jun as if possessed.
“Hajun… … Seed.”
I don’t know what he means, or rather, I think I understand correctly, but how should I react… … .
“There’s nothing to think about hastily. “It might be easier to go very slowly.”
At Kang Ha-jun’s words, Eun-yul fastened her seat belt. It occurred to me that due to my hasty handling, the seatbelt was not pulled up as Eunyul wanted.

After meeting Seong Eun-yul, Hyeon Jae-ha worked as usual. I usually had coffee as my meal. Then, when she reached the limit of how much she could survive on coffee, she tried to eat Hyeonjaeha’s rice.
But it wasn’t easy. Even when I tried to eat, there was no food that appealed to me, and the moment I put it in my mouth, I felt sick.
I wondered if I was going to collapse if I stayed like this, and if I should go to the hospital and get some nutritional supplements, what came to mind was Sooni’s hangover soup.
Hyun Je-ha looked around. Most of the people coming in and out were older customers, and there weren’t many of them.
Even when I looked around other places, it was similar. It was a quiet street with little floating population.
Hyeonjaeha turned towards Suni’s hangover soup restaurant again and patted his hungry stomach.
I didn’t come because of Kang Ha-jun, but I was curious to see what kind of face Seong Eun-yul would greet me with.
Hyun Jae-ha slowly entered the restaurant. Hyeonjeha sat down and waited patiently for anyone to speak to her.
“Here we go again.”
Eun-yul sighed as she saw Hyeon Je-ha sitting on a remote island.
“I don’t think there’s any need to ask why you came to the hangover soup restaurant.”
Eunyul put down a glass of water in front of him. As Hyun Je-ha was just looking down at it, Eun-yul pushed the glass closer.
“If it took me all the way from Seoul to here, I would have already had two meals. “But why did you come here?”
This was what he said after seeing Hyun Je-ha’s pale face and pouty lips.
“… … “Hey.”
“what?”
Hyun Je-ha’s voice was so low that Eun-yul bent her upper body towards him.
“It’s been three days. “Eating.”
Hyun Je-ha raised his head and spoke while making eye contact with Eun-yul. At first, Eunyul came closer to hear his voice, but when she saw his white face, she couldn’t say anything.
“Drink water first. “My lips were all split.”
As Eun-yul pushed the cup closer, Hyeon Je-ha slowly stretched out his hand. And just as he was about to drink water, he realized that it was not bottled water and looked up at him, but Eunyul had already turned around.
“It’s not strange. “You can drink it because it’s water boiled with medicinal herbs provided by an oriental medicine doctor.”
It was boiled so lightly that even Haneul could eat it, so it would be okay for Hyun Je-ha, who has an empty stomach, to drink it.
Eunyul came into the kitchen and put up the tray in frustration. I thought she was thin the last time I saw her, but now she is even thinner.
“Why are all humans like that? Just 3 days? “I’m shocked.”
I don’t know why there aren’t people who have a lot of money and eat well like this. Eunyul was in a bad mood, but she couldn’t just ignore it. She even brought boiled water. She sighed and took out a pot from under the sink.
* * *
Hyeonjaeha just stared at the food that Eunyul had placed down in front of him.
“I ordered hangover soup.”
“No matter how soft our hangover soup is, if you eat it now, you’ll get sick. “Eat that today.”
Eunyul pushed the separately cooked porridge in front of Hyeonjeha. And as the side dishes were laid out one by one, Hyun Je-ha compared mine with other people’s.
“Nothing provocative.”
Eunyul, who knew what he was looking at, acted as if he had no idea.
“There’s no kimchi. It was delicious… … .”
“If you wanted to eat that, you should have prepared it well at every meal.”
Eunyul clicked her tongue as she looked at Hyeonjeha’s skinny body.
“So you’re making me porridge? “I want to eat hangover soup.”
“Porridge is the best for patients.”
“I’m not a patient. I just didn’t eat because I didn’t want to eat anything. Don’t eat this. “Give me hangover soup.”
“you… … “How did you survive all this time because you wanted to eat hangover soup?”
Eunyul muttered as if Hyunjeha was pitiful, and then something curious came to mind.
“Then what have you been doing to survive all this time without eating?”
“… … coffee.”
Eun-yul was not embarrassed by the obvious situation and looked down at Hyeon Je-ha, then suddenly turned his head and called out to Im Bong-soon.
“Grandma, there is someone here who hasn’t eaten every meal.”
“What?”
“They said I didn’t eat and made up for it with coffee.”
Hyun Je-ha showed unusual embarrassment at Eun-yul’s taunt.
