“Happiness can only be achieved when you meet someone who loves you and whom you love.”
“… … “I thought you loved me.”
Hyun Jae-ha gave a very late answer.
“I thought we loved each other. But it keeps falling apart.”
In the past, I thought it was just the wrong timing, but lately, I’ve suddenly thought differently. Maybe it’s not a matter of timing, but just a misalignment because it wasn’t meant to continue?
“I want Ha-Jun, but do you think I’m foolish?”
“Jehaya… … .”
“I’m still going to wait and see. “There have been a lot of misunderstandings that have built up over the years, and I think the problem is that we are trying to get over it clumsily.”
Hyun Je-ha put down the coffee.
“I plan to visit Mr. Hajun again soon. “I felt like I was too emotional last time and couldn’t have a proper conversation.”
“Do it that way. I also decided to meet with Rep. Kang. By the way, Kang Ha-jun lives with me separately.”
“Are you Hajun?”
Before getting married, Hyeon Je-ha had thought that she would not leave the family home and live separately, so she expressed her surprise.
Then it soon became darker than before. I had a dark fantasy about living with the person I was meeting.

Eunyul, who had fallen asleep while lying on the bed to hug Haneul, opened her eyes. When she picked up her phone and checked the time, it was 2 am.
“ah… … hungry.”
I ate dinner early to accommodate a group of guests, but I woke up hungry. Eunyul held her stomach and left the room.
If you warm up the milk and drink it, then wash and sleep… … .
“… … It’s a surprise.”
Eunyul took milk out of the refrigerator and turned around, muttering her surprise behind a silent scream.
“sorry. surprised?”
I must have been drinking with only the auxiliary light on when Kang Ha-jun approached me silently from behind. Perhaps because of the mat, even the sound of his steps disappeared, making him look even more like a ghost.
“No, turn off all the lights and do something.”
“hmm… … . “I turned it off because it was night.”
Kang Ha-jun said there was no particular reason and rubbed the back of his neck. Eunyul frowned when she saw his clothes.
“Why are you still wearing your suit?”
It was the same outfit I wore when I came to pick up Haneul earlier.
“If I hadn’t changed my clothes, I wouldn’t have washed it, right?”
“ah… … that… … .”
Kang Ha-jun, who only cared about the sky being washed away, was embarrassed and then embarrassed when he actually saw what he was doing. Eunyul, looking at his gently heated face, confidently shouted.
“I didn’t wash it either, but it’s the same.”
After saying that, Eunyul raised both her hands.
“But I washed my hands and feet thoroughly and changed my clothes. “She just didn’t shower.”
As Kang Ha-jun just looked at him without saying a word, Eun-yul lowered her hand again as if giving up.
“Let’s all wash up and meet again.”
Let’s wash first.
* * *
Eun-yul, who was wiping her wet hair with a towel, stuck her head out when she saw Kang Ha-jun doing something in the kitchen.
“what are you doing?”
When I asked him with a towel tied around his neck, Kang Ha-jun, who, like himself, had not yet been able to dry his wet hair, turned around.
“I think I’m hungry.”
He put freshly warmed soup into two bowls.
“sit down.”
As Eunyul sat down obediently following Kang Ha-jun’s brief instructions, a fragrant smell came from the soup.
“Did you boil this yourself?”
“I warmed it up.”
“I see.”
Well, the manager keeps the refrigerator full, so there’s no need to boil the soup yourself.
“If I boil it, it won’t taste good and I won’t be able to eat it.”
“Have you ever boiled it?”
Kang Ha-jun nodded as Eun-yul asked while holding the spoon.
“when… … What is important? It sounds delicious. Ah, it’s hot.”
Eunyul roughly stirred the soup and put it in her mouth, but spit it out because it was hot. Rather than eating the soup, Eun-yul and Kang Ha-jun froze in this embarrassing situation where the spoon came out just as it went into their mouths.
“I’m not really this dirty of a person.”
I wasn’t supposed to, but I fell asleep without washing up and put soup in my mouth and took it back out. Even if it’s okay the first time, isn’t the second time a bit different?
“It’s because it’s hot.”
“Sorry. “I don’t know how much to warm it up.”
Kang Ha-jun took Eun-yul’s bowl and stirred the soup. Seeing that everyone was trying to cool down the soup, Eunyul pulled the bowl back in front of me.
“I will do it.”
Then, I dipped back into the uneaten soup that was still on the spoon and stirred it.
‘When people become awkward, everything becomes strange.’
Eunyul nervously stirred his spoon, blaming the soup for this situation. I ignored the one or two drops that splashed around me.
Suddenly, the stirring speed noticeably slowed down. It was proof that the attention was focused on Kang Ha-jun, not Soup.
“I… … .”
Eunyul called Kang Ha-jun to say something, but was unable to get her next words out.
“Don’t worry about grandpa. “I’m not going to tell you anything about Haneul, and even if I do, I won’t take it away from you.”
“ah… … .”
I guess the worry I had at first glance was evident on my face.
“Is it obvious like that?”
“Rather than saying it was obvious, I thought it might make you feel that way. “If I were you, I would worry about that first.”
The answer was no.
“You don’t have to be so nervous because you’re not the one to forcefully take away the child.”
Ha-Jun Kang figured out that the content that Eun-Yul was only talking about and couldn’t talk about was about her maternal grandfather, so he sorted it out for her.
In fact, Eunyul had completely forgotten that her grandfather had visited. So Eun-yul was able to bring up something that had been difficult to say until just now.
“You said things changed because of me.”
The conversation I had with Kang Ha-jun while drinking, and even the words we exchanged the next day.
“That impressed you that much?”
So much so that the flow of the original story is completely disrupted?
“I was only a partner for one night and… … “I found it strange that there was someone I liked and I swayed you like that.”
“You don’t have to give it such a deep meaning.”
Kang Ha-jun must have sensed the burden Eun-yul was feeling and shook his head.
“Thanks to you, my life goals have changed, but it really happened like an accident. And since it’s my choice, there’s no need for you to feel burdened.”
Kang Ha-jun did not mention the part where Eun-yul mentioned words such as one-night stand and such. As if that had no influence on his choice.
“After that, my life actually got better than before. Now that I have a goal, I haven’t looked back and… … “It’s fun to see you again.”
“What fun is it if you don’t even recognize it right away?”
“I mean, finding out who you are has brightened my time.”
Previously, it had been a heavy day with the goal of revenge, but now I felt a different kind of joy. As if that was good, Kang Ha-jun stirred the soup with a very light expression.
I couldn’t see when I had put away the alcohol I was drinking alone earlier.
“I’m glad you know who I am and don’t bother me.”
“On the contrary, it bothers me.”
“That too.”
So, Eun-yul, who remembered that she had become entangled like this, tried to glance at Kang Ha-jun, but happened to see his smile and couldn’t take her eyes off him.
He, who had always had an apologetic expression on his face, was smiling so comfortably.
What is good?
Kang Ha-jun had a child who inherited his blood overnight.
‘Come to think of it… … .’
There was something I wondered why it only occurred to me now. I couldn’t think of anything else, just thinking that Haneul was so lovely that Kang Ha-jun would naturally want to take her. Wouldn’t you hate it if you had an unwanted child with an omega like me?
No matter how cute and adorable Haneul was, wasn’t her presence just an inconvenience?
However, ever since learning of Haneul’s existence, Kang Ha-jun has not shown any such signs. He had nothing to say about it. Because he truly liked Haneul and was happy with her.
“Why do you like it?”
“… … what?”
Kang Ha-jun was so embarrassed that he lost his spoon. Because of the sharp sound of hitting the bowl, the soft atmosphere that had been growing between him and me disappeared in an instant.
“Why do you like the sky?”
Eunyul, who realized that I spoke too incoherently, added Haneul.
“Ah, the sky… … .”
Kang Ha-jun nodded as if he finally understood what I meant, took out a few tissues, and went to wipe up the soup that had spilled around him. Kang Ha-jun’s hands, which had naturally wiped away the splatter that had been splattered when I stirred them vigorously earlier, slowed down very dullly when there was nothing more to wipe.
Looking at him, Eunyul added a word.
“You were able to marry Hyun Je-ha and have beautiful children. But now, I’m wondering if it’s no big deal that I have a child named Haneul.”
“under. To answer that, I have to first talk about you before the sky.”
“my story?”
