“Why are you saying that?”
Namgoonghyuk grumpily accepted it as if he knew everything. My friend, whom I have known since he was young, grew up without any shortcomings under his upright parents. However, that was only an externally visible environment, and the fundamental problem under the current regime was different.
I still can’t forget the day I learned Hyun Je-ha’s secret.
Hyeonjeha felt pain when receiving Alpha’s pheromones. A certain amount of light pheromone was okay, but if it exceeded a certain level, the pheromone gave Hyun Je-ha a painful feeling as if thorns were wrapping around her body and constricting her.
How burdensome and difficult life would be if you felt pain as if your whole body were being torn apart by the pheromones of another alpha.
“It was the only one… … “That person’s pheromones were the only thing that kept me from getting sick.”
That’s why Hyeon Je-ha was attracted to Kang Ha-jun. I thought Kang Ha-jun also liked me, so Namgoong-hyuk thought they would get along well.
But the results were beyond expectations. Except for the fact that Hyun Je-ha and Kang Ha-jun’s pheromones did not hurt, their relationship did not become closer.
“Was I being too selfish?”
“How selfish are you? Rather, that bastard Kang Ha-jun, damn it.”
Namgoong Hyuk couldn’t hide his annoyed feelings.
They said that Kang Ha-jun’s pheromones were the only ones that didn’t hurt. So Namgunghyuk could not be greedy for Hyeonjeha and resigned. Not only that, but he also knocked out all the other Omegas that were attached to Kang Ha-jun. Then, Kang Ha-jun should have focused on Hyun Je-ha, but in reality, that was not the case.
“Is that why you distanced yourself from me? Meeting someone other than myself… … “Because I can’t take care of him.”
“That’s not it.”
“Even if it’s like me, I don’t think you’ll ever see me again. “Honestly, I’m not very good.”
“What’s so bad about you? Look at you and Seong Eun-yul side by side. Who will everyone see… … .”
Namgoonghyuk shouted excitedly, but later realized his mistake and kept his mouth shut.
Hyun Je-ha, whose smile disappeared and his expression returned to his usual expression, stood up.
“It was Seongyul.”
Namgoong Hyuk blamed his stupid brain.
Even if I broke up with Kang Ha-jun, I’m not the type of person who would think it was my fault… … . Even though I knew Hyun Je-ha’s personality, I ignored it. Namgung-hyuk said, thinking that he wanted to beat up himself for being so weak to Hyun Je-ha.
“The omega that Kang Ha-jun is suited for right now is Seong Eun-yul… … It’s different from what you think. “You two aren’t dating?”
“I will see and judge the rest myself.”
When Hyun Je-ha turned around, Namgung-hyuk quickly caught him.
“Wait a minute, Jeha. “Listen to me first.”
If you let him go like this, he might develop some misunderstanding. I thought it would be better for me to explain, but the problem was that Hyun Je-ha did not listen to me.
“Hyuk.”
Hyun Je-ha stared at Namgung-hyuk with cold, sunken eyes.
“If you were going to tell me, you should have done it a long time ago.”
He said it was late and took Namgoong Hyuk’s hand off his body.

While watching Haneul excitedly doing subtraction, Eunyul glanced at Kang Hajun. Then, when I looked at Haneul again, the paper had already turned. Seeing how he solved the problem without deciding how much he wanted to do, it seemed like he had to solve it to a great extent before they would give him the workbook.
Eunyul, who was looking at Haneul, glanced at Kang Hajun again. To be precise, towards the disposable band attached to his face.
“If you want to ask, you can ask.”
“Who hit you?”
“father.”
“ah… … .”
There was no need to ask further. I saw in the novel what kind of person Kang Ha-jun’s father was. Of course, I can’t say I know everything about him because only a few people came forward, but I was able to roughly predict the level of their relationship.
Especially since Kang Ha-jun said that he saw his mother die, the relationship between the two could not have been good.
“Aren’t you going to ask any more questions?”
“I think you can stop listening. “It’s not a particularly good story.”
“okay? “Then can I ask you something?”
Eunyul nodded, wondering what Kang Hajun wanted to know about me.
“As you wish.”
“Can I keep letting the sky go on?”
Before I knew it, there were more than ten pages to go, so I was asked if I could continue subtracting.
“are you okay. “Hae-neul has a bit of a change, or rather a thick side.”
Eun-yul stopped mid-sentence and changed his words, but Kang Ha-jun didn’t bother to delve into it.
“What happened at kindergarten before? “There was a way to write numbers and roll up paper.”
As I continued writing from 1, the paper became longer and I rolled it up like a roll of toilet paper.
“I started doing it when I was 6 and a half years old, and then I started doing it in the summer… … . “My brother and sister did it first and seeing that more was dried, Haneul spent the whole day making it the same size.”
Eunyul recalled the consultation with the kindergarten teacher that day and explained it as understandably as possible. I don’t know how much Kang Ha-jun understood.
“I don’t know how good children are in general, but Haneul is particularly strong at sitting in one place and doing things. You can leave it as long as you want to do that calculation. “After seeing how much you can solve at one time, you can adjust the amount starting tomorrow.”
In other words, since Haneul is the type of person who is always absorbed in one thing, there is nothing else to worry about.
“I’ve had counseling before and they said it was okay. “In fact, I was praised for having better concentration than my peers.”
The pride she felt at that time was short-lived, and Eunyul muttered to herself as if she were puzzled.
“I don’t know why it’s because I resemble someone. “I can’t have a heavy butt like that.”
There were more than a few times when I got scolded because I couldn’t stand it while trimming bean sprouts with my grandmother.
“Well, not all of Haneul’s actions have to have a reason.”
It was a time when I was just trying to overlook it.
“I think it looks like me.”
If it weren’t for what Kang Ha-jun said.
Eunyul didn’t say anything until Haneul closed the workbook with a refreshed face and went out to eat a snack.
Actually, Kang Ha-jun was the reason why Haneul couldn’t eat eggplant, so you can think of it in a similar way… … .
“Isn’t that too shameless?”
I was so shocked that I couldn’t speak right away.
“I’m not saying this to be shameless, but because it really seems like it. Even when I was young, I was like Haneul. “They say that if you fall in love with something, you stick with it for a long time.”
“Who?”
“mother.”
“ah… … .”
The moment I heard the answer that it was my mother, the situation was over. The person who raised Kang Ha-jun said that, so how can you deny that?
“You know what? “Heaven is my son.”
“I’ve never forgotten it.”
“is it so?”
As Eun-yul was looking at him with suspicion, Kang Ha-jun quietly added something.
“But since he also received my genes, there are parts of him that resemble me.”
“I think that’s really shameless.”
Kang Ha-jun, who saw Eun-yul’s narrowed eyes, quietly picked up the workbook that Haneul had solved. And seeing Kang Ha-jun looking at the answers while scanning them all to see if there were any mistakes, Eun-yul shook his head and stood up.
I heard that I received the genes. What more can I say?
“I eat spicy stew for dinner. “I’ll boil it.”
The salad made by two people is not enough for a meal.
Kang Ha-jun, who had been looking away from Eun-yul’s reply, stood up. He moved his large body without making a sound and followed Eunyul into the kitchen.
“What should I do?”
“I’m fine now that I’m used to it.”
“I’m saying I’ll do what the next person tells me to do.”
Eun-yul said he could do it alone, but Kang Ha-jun stood tall as if he wanted to be his assistant. Even though the kitchen was spacious, it felt relatively cramped because there were two men there.
Because there was an island table, the range of action was further narrowed.
“then… … .”
Eun-yul, who knew that Kang Ha-jun wouldn’t go out, gave up and thought about what to order him to do.
It’s not that Kang Ha-jun couldn’t cook at all. He heated the ingredients and sometimes even stir-fried them, but he was good at it.
“Do you know how to make an omelette?”
“I’ll look up the recipe.”
“no. There’s no need to do that. “I will tell you.”
Eun-yul stopped Kang Ha-jun from getting his cell phone.
“If you look at the recipe, you just use the ingredients that appear there. Don’t you think it would be better if we added the ingredients we want to eat instead of that?”
At Eunyul’s suggestion, Haneul, who was eating cookies, ran over and shouted.
“I am cheese.”
As if he already knew what kind of food an omelette was, Haneul told him the ingredients he wanted to add and Eunyul smiled as if he had done well.
“I’m a tomato.”
Haneul chose cheese and Eunyul chose tomatoes, and only Kang Ha-jun remained. He also felt like he had to say something. Because Haneul and Eunyul were looking at him intently… … .
“I am… … .”
“You can put anything in it.”
Eun-yul told him not to feel pressured, but Kang Ha-jun found it even more difficult to keep his mouth shut. As the gaze between the two people becomes more and more intense.
“… … meat?”
I chose one of the most common ones and said it, and Eunyul and Haneul clapped their hands and liked it.
“Then we can add minced meat here. See if there is any minced meat… … .”
“looks delicious.”
Eunyul immediately opened the refrigerator to check the ingredients, and Haneul looked at Kang Hajun with eager anticipation as if he wanted to eat it already.
“I don’t expect that much…” … .”
“You don’t have to mince the meat. “There’s minced meat here.”
At the sound of Eun-yul shouting, Kang Ha-jun turned to the refrigerator without being able to tell Ha-neul. He just meant to do what Eunyul told him to do, but he suddenly took charge of cooking and looked quite nervous.
“There’s nothing to be so nervous about.”
Eunyul smiled and lightly tapped Kang Hajun’s arm. He says he cooks, which makes Kang Ha-jun nervous, but if it was something other than cooking, he could have been in the opposite situation.
In any case, Eunyul, who was relatively relaxed when it came to cooking, thought she should appease him.
“You can do it one by one and I will help you.”
