“A guy who only ate steak has been eating only hangover soup for 5 years, so that’s not going to change?”
“It’s a compliment, right?”
“It’s a compliment. “My face used to be pale and pale, but now I’m bloated and trembling, wondering who has more breasts. Who knows!”
Eunyul’s face was gradually melting despite Lim Bong-sun’s screaming.
“But grandma, can you pronounce steak well now? In the past, Ste… … no.”
When Eunyul saw Lim Bongsoon holding a knife, she automatically kept her mouth shut. Anyway, she felt much of the frustration from earlier.
‘Well, it’s natural that you didn’t recognize me.’
All I had to do was sleep with Kang Ha-jun for one day. And he chose it as if anyone would pick it up. The only one who thought it was meaningful was Seong Eun-yul. He spent the night with Kang Ha-jun as happily as wearing Seong-eun, and went around revealing that he was his omega. In fact, Kang Ha-jun did not even meet Seong Eun-yul other than that night, but he kicked out the omega that was entangled around him and even touched the main character who would be loved by Kang Ha-jun for the rest of his life.
Did you see it one more time at the end when everything was taken away? Seong Eun-yul was never an impressive person to Kang Ha-jun, so there was no way he would recognize him.
“Well, what can I say? “I was nervous for no reason.”
Rather, I was surprised and asked, ‘Kang Ha-jun?’ Even if he shouted, I should have thought, ‘What is this guy?’ Eunyul flinched at the refreshing feeling as if the fog in her head had cleared.
“Maybe it’s because I grew up eating my grandmother’s food, but I keep gaining weight.”
“It’s something that sticks to your cheeks… … . But is it okay for you to do this?”
Eunyul looked at her as if asking what was wrong, but only received a pitiful look from the grandmother.
“Heaven won’t bring me?”
“Oh right. “I’ll be back.”
Eunyul quickly got up from her seat. As she opened the door to her kitchen wide open and went out, Lim Bong-soon, who was putting hangover soup in her bowl, clicked her tongue.
“They’re destroying everything because it’s not a household item.”
Lim Bong-soon shook his head and walked over to Kang Ha-jun’s table carrying a tray.
“Deshu.”
Hajun Kang looked at the hangover soup in front of him and then looked at the hangover soup on the other table. All the other tables have earthenware pots, but this one has ordinary pots. A thin bowl that cannot be used as a soup bowl.
“Don’t think about sticking it to your butt, just go quickly.”
Before Kang Ha-jun even frowned at the store owner’s discrimination, Han Cheol-seung laughed as if it was fun. He didn’t feel bad at all because he didn’t get the earthen pot and he got it too. He seemed to be a little closer than before, perhaps because he was about to be kicked out as well.
“Are you happy?”
“There’s no reason not to have fun.”
Before Han Cheol-seung could finish laughing, he lifted his spoon and stirred the soup.
“Look at this amount without even giving it to the earthen pot so it can cool down quickly. Didn’t I bring you so much that you would burst to death? “This is all thanks to me being a regular customer.”
Kang Ha-jun looked at the bowl with an amazed gaze. So, it’s my fault that this bowl changed, and it’s thanks to Han Cheol-seung that the quantity is large?
Kang Ha-jun also picked up his spoon without realizing that he was different from usual, biting about trivial things.
The delicious smell permeated my entire body.

“Sky.”
A boy got off the yellow kindergarten bus holding his teacher’s hand and looked up. He had a cute face that made you want to bite just by looking at him, with his big eyes, round nose, and plump lips. It was so adorable that he even burst into laughter as soon as he found out who had called him.
“dad!”
As Haneul ran towards her with open arms, Eunyul hugged her. As I was rubbing my cheek against Sky’s face, I waited for the kindergarten teacher to make eye contact and say hello.
“Did you have a good time?”
“huh.”
“It was fun?”
“huh.”
After being distracted by Haneul’s cute face for a moment, Eunyul bowed deeply and said she was sorry for getting on the teacher’s nerves.
Only after Haneul confessed to her teacher that she loved him by drawing a heart above her head did the teacher say hello and leave.
“What was fun?”
Eunyul held out her hand and handed Haneul down. Haneul held her hand and looked up at Eunyul.
“Forest experience.”
“Today was the day to experience the forest.”
Eunyul nodded, remembering that she went to the forest next to the kindergarten once a week. And as he started to walk, he stopped when the small hands he was holding did not follow him.
“huh? Sky, why?”
“My legs are getting old and I can’t walk.”
Sky took the hand he was holding and opened his arms again. Perhaps because she was closely related to her grandmother Lim Bong-soon for a long time, her sky often imitated her and is still part of it.
‘This guy’s body is old and doesn’t move. I don’t know how much longer I can endure with my worn-out body, but these rotten people don’t have hands or feet, so why do they keep coming back to eat hangover soup? ‘I make it at home and eat it.’ Although these words were expressed purely from the child’s perspective.
“Then my dad will have to carry me.”
Eunyul picked up Sky and sat her in her arms. When I lifted it, it almost floated, and a clear laugh came from the sky. Eunyul, who was listening to the child’s laughter surrounding his ears, looked at Sky’s face again.
“It’s a shame that I was the only one who saw it. If I had seen you, I would have been in real trouble.”
Eunyul smiled as if it was nothing at Haneul’s blank expression, not knowing what it meant. I was really glad to see only myself. Because Kang Ha-jun’s face was sculpted several times to create the face of heaven.
The media helped me recognize Ha-Jun Kang right away, but a lot of it goes to Seong Ha-Neul.
“Why did this come out like this? Why is it so cute, cuddly and lovely?”
That person was bleak, scary, and charismatic.
Eunyul tapped Sky’s round nose with her fingertip. Then the sky covered my nose as if to protect it.
“then no. “It’s already round, but what if it gets pressed and becomes even more round?”
“Don’t worry. If you lose your breasts, it will rise high. “The tip of your nose will also become sharper?”
“How does Dad know that?”
“That’s it… … .”
Because Kang Ha-jun’s nose looks like that… … Unable to say that, Eunyul changed his words.
“Because I was round like you when I was young.”
“Dad, you’re still round.”
“… … .”
“And Dad has breasts too. “Her grandmother said that the two of us are getting hotter?”
“This grandmother Lim Bong-soon is really… … .”
I can’t tell what to say and what not to say to my child. Eunyul frowned, wondering where to start. Should he tell people that he is now a grown adult and that it is just meat and not breast fat, or should he make an excuse that although the tip of his nose is a little round, it is by no means a low nose on average? Should he make the excuse that Sung Ha-neul’s face is as big as Kang Ha-jun’s… … .
“Let’s not talk.”
Eunyul hugged Haneul. As I was about to go to the restaurant again, Kang Ha-jun came to mind.
‘Maybe it’s still not there?’
* * *
“Today I wake up early because I have a companion, but next time I will stay until the sun sets, so I know that.”
Lim Bong-soon snorted at what Han Cheol-seung said while calculating. Although he was a great lawmaker in the country, here he was treated harshly because he was one of the old people who had problems with his feet.
What can a member of the National Assembly say when we are all old?
“then Let’s go.”
Han Cheol-seung went out first, Kang Ha-jun followed, and then looked back for a moment. Since I couldn’t hear anyone else coming from the kitchen, I wondered where the young man from earlier had gone.
“Where is this grandchild?”
“Grandchildren? “That guy from earlier?”
As Kang Ha-jun nodded, Lim Bong-soon looked very impressed.
“Why do you keep calling that ugly guy my grandchild? You wouldn’t be able to say that if you saw my face when I was young… … .”
“So where is the young man now?”
“What if I just go outside? There was a line all the way there. It was crowded with people who came to see my face… … .”
Kang Ha-jun’s mouth fell silent as he heard endless stories about his grandmother’s youth.
In the end, I couldn’t hear where the young man who wasn’t my grandson had gone.
* * *
Eunyul leaned against the door and stuck her head out to the side, looking around every corner of the store. It was to secretly check to see if Kang Ha-jun had gone or was still there.
‘I don’t think there is one… … .’
A small face also peeked out from around Eunyul’s waist. The little face imitated her father by biting into the ice cream. I don’t know why, but it just looks fun.
“They do shit.”
Lim Bong-sun, who was trimming the seaweed, looked at it and clicked her tongue.
“Don’t jump in quickly!”
At Lim Bong-sun’s shout, Eun-yul and Haneul quickly came inside. The customers at the store laughed when they saw the two people standing side by side in front of the grandmother.
“I saw there were a lot of customers.”
“If it looks like there are a lot of them, they will quickly come to work and just stick their heads out.”
“Oh, I was busy.”
“Why should a rotten bastard be busy bringing in a child?”
In response to Im Bong-sun’s scolding, Eun-yul pointed to Haneul, who was licking the ice cream that had spilled from her hand.
“I was trying to choose ice cream.”
“Plague.”
Im Bong-soon slapped Eun-yul on the back, held Haneul’s hand, and headed toward the kitchen. When the two people disappeared along with the nagging message that they shouldn’t lick their unwashed hands, Eunyul sat down on a chair as if she had lost all energy.
“thank god.”
I wondered what would have happened if Kang Ha-jun had stayed, but I felt relieved when I saw the grandmother trimming the radish radish.
He won’t come anymore.
Eunyul shook the hair off her forehead. I don’t know if it’s because the weather is hot or because I’m nervous.
