“I’m sorry for making you sad. love you. “I apologize.”
As Haneul continued to speak, Kang Ha-jun and Namgoong-hyuk’s expressions became increasingly dark.
“In kindergarten, if we fight, we apologize like this. Then our relationship will get better.”
As Haneul held their hands tightly telling them to make up, only Eunyul was shaking silently.
It was fun to see two large adults struggling with Haneul, not knowing what to do. In particular, Namgoong-hyuk, who would tick without regard for the opponent, remained silent as if he thought Hae-neul had committed a crime, so it was really worth seeing.
“What’s fun?”
When Im Bong-soon asked harshly when he appeared, Eun-yul pointed to Haneul.
“Because Haneul is so cute.”
“When hasn’t it been like that?”
Lim Bong-soon said that everything was interesting and approached Haneul with his back to her. Eun-yul just watched and had no intention of saving Kang Ha-jun and Namgoong-hyuk, but it seemed like Lim Bong-sun was trying to do it instead.
Meanwhile, Eun-yul stared at Kang Ha-jun’s face.
Not only did he help me with my cycle, but he was also the person who took care of various things next to me all morning. Considering that Kang Ha-jun’s personality was not one to take care of anyone, it was quite touching.
If it hadn’t been for him spewing out dirty words once in a while, I might have been really moved by the ending.
It was a cycle that came suddenly, but Eunyul’s eyes softened as she looked at Kang Ha-jun, feeling a long lingering feeling that had not yet disappeared.
It feels like my heart, which was slowly getting wet from the light rain, has now become soaked from the shower.
“what are you doing.”
When Lim Bong-soon intervened, Kang Ha-jun and Namgoong-hyuk looked at each other asking for help. It was an unspoken request to stop this situation, as I couldn’t say it openly because Haneul was there.
“Because my uncle and you had a fight.”
“You can keep calling me dad… … .”
“Why do you keep calling me uncle? “Please call me uncle instead.”
While Kang Ha-jun and Namgoong-hyuk were talking about titles, Lim Bong-soon clicked his tongue and turned around.
“You guys haven’t come to your senses yet.”
“Huh? Where are you going. this… … “I have to do it and go.”
Namgung-hyuk stretched out his other hand and tried to grab Lim Bong-soon, but she had already gone too far.
“Now, apologize quickly. Follow me. friend. love you.”
Kang Ha-jun and Namgoong-hyuk’s faces hardened at Haneul’s urging.
* * *
After Haneul let go of his hand, saying he would watch over him in the middle, Kang Ha-jun and Namgoong-hyuk sat far apart. They couldn’t even touch their hands for fear that Haneul might put their hands together again.
“No matter how I wash it, it still feels uncomfortable.”
Namgoong-hyuk moved his hands busily, shaking them in the air and smelling them, while Kang Ha-jun wordlessly wiped his hands with a wet tissue to the point where the skin peeled off.
“Why are you making such a fuss about something that only touched you briefly?”
Namgung-hyuk and Kang Ha-jun were forced to stop what they were doing due to Eun-yul’s harsh words.
“Anyway, now that we know what will happen with this incident, we won’t fight in front of Sky next time, right?”
“Never fight.”
Namgoonghyuk spoke strongly as if something like that would never happen in his life.
“I almost told her I loved her. “I won’t fight.”
As Namgoonghyuk was shaking his head in complete disgust, Eunyul’s eyes narrowed.
“So why are you here?”
“me? What am I… … .”
Namgoonghyuk gently dragged the basket he had carried earlier towards me. He seemed to realize now that he had thrown aside the thing he had been given to trim the bean sprouts.
“I came to eat and found the door closed so I wondered what was going on. I guess… … “I thought it was because he had work to do, but he said no.”
Namgoong Hyuk’s face as he spoke while patting his head showed regret, awkwardness, and worry.
How can you put so many emotions on your face?
“If I knew, shouldn’t I have come further? “You probably know how it happened.”
“That’s why I came here to take responsibility.”
When Eun-yul asked, he spoke humbly, but when Kang Ha-jun said it, he raised his voice as if he was going to bite him mercilessly.
Then, upon seeing Haneul, Namgoonghyuk cleared his throat and lowered his voice.
“Anyway, I came here to eat and that’s what happened.”
“What happened like that? And bean sprouts shouldn’t be trimmed like that.”
Eunyul saw Namgoonghyeok’s head popping in his hand and pointed behind him. Namgoong Hyuk seemed to understand the hand gesture to remove her tail and removed her tail.
“I came and got caught and started working. Otherwise, would I be seen as the kind of person who would work in a place like this? Even though I was like this, I was raised so preciously… … evil!”
Namgoonghyuk leaned back in pain due to the sudden smashing of his back.
“Someone told me to pick off the heads of all the bean sprouts. uh?”
“Ah, it was clear earlier… … .”
“I only picked the black and blue ones. What if I picked all the healthy ones too?”
“ah.”
Knowing why Namgung-hyuk was being scolded, he looked at the bean sprouts and suddenly looked at Eun-yul with resentful eyes.
“Why didn’t you tell me?”
I was resentful and asked why he kept telling me to follow his tail when he knew everything I was doing was wrong. Then Eunyul shrugged his shoulders and turned his head.
“I didn’t know either.”
In the 5th year of opening the restaurant, we got to the point where we trimmed the bean sprouts without even looking at them, but we pretended not to notice.
Namgoong-hyuk was even more aggrieved by that shameless attitude, and Kang Ha-jun must have been thinking something, so he grabbed Eun-yul’s hand and made her look at him.
“Then did you intentionally give me rice and side dishes like that last time?”
“Last time? If you say so, when… … .”
I get it.
The second day Kang Ha-jun came. He came alone and was alone in this restaurant. It was a day when he added various things to the basic side dishes and even piled the rice on top.
“I don’t remember.”
Eunyul belatedly tried to pretend not to notice, but judging by Kang Ha-jun’s eyes narrowing, he must have been caught.
“what. “What’s happening all of a sudden?”
As the conversation progressed to something he didn’t know, Namgoonghyuk intervened as if he didn’t like it, but no one spoke. Eun-yul was embarrassed to mention what happened at that time, so she stayed quiet, and Kang Ha-jun just ignored Namgoong-hyuk.
“Despicable things.”
Feeling left out, Namgoong-hyuk vented his anger on bean sprouts, but was caught by Lim Bong-sun and hit.
People who would normally have been uncomfortable gathering together are now living together peacefully. Eunyul, who couldn’t find it strange, was busy praising Haneul’s drawing while Kang Ha-jun and Namgoong-hyuk glared at each other.
“Now we have to slowly get back to our place.”
Lim Bong-soon, who was standing at the entrance to the kitchen and looking at them, muttered. The only one who heard her say so little was Haneul, who had just picked up a new crayon.
Haneul tilted her head and tried to understand what the grandmother meant, but quickly forgot and turned her attention to her drawing.
A table of ordinary home-cooked meals, not hangover soup, was served, including seasoned vegetables made with bean sprouts prepared by Namgung-hyuk.
Although it was awkward to not have hangover soup at Suni’s, the beef radish soup filled the void quite nicely.
“It’s cool. “What on earth is this house doing to the soup?”
Namgoonghyuk drank from the entire bowl and muttered as if he had no idea.
“Why is what comes out of that kitchen so delicious?”
Haneul, who was eating rice, said with an excited face as Namgoonghyuk muttered to himself.
“Everything grandma makes is delicious.”
“therefore. “How many years has your grandmother been cooking?”
“hmm… … “50 years?”
As Haneul tilted his head and spoke, Namgoonghyuk smiled widely and nodded.
“After 50 years, you are a craftsman. “He’s a craftsman.”
“Are you a father-in-law?”
“huh. “I’m talking about people who dig one path very deeply.”
“So, my grandmother was deeply into making delicious rice?”
“yes.”
Haneul asked and Namgoonghyuk answered. Eunyul looked at the two with an expression of surprise at the conversation that surprisingly went well.
When did you two become so close?
As if that wasn’t just Eun-yul’s idea, Kang Ha-jun looked at Namgoong-hyuk with a disapproving look on his face.
“How long are you going to come and go?”
“That’s my heart. Isn’t this a restaurant? “Isn’t this a place where anyone can come and go?”
Eunyul nodded as if Namgoonghyuk’s reply was correct.
‘It’s a place that everyone comes and goes. Thanks to that, everyone from Kang Ha-jun to Namgoong-hyuk and Hyun Je-ha were included.’
This restaurant, where I built a place, was not built to be a very strong fortress that prevented other people from entering. The castle lord was strong and there were quite a few reliable knights, but the castle gate was wide open, so it was a fortress, but not fully armed.
Because of that, relationships from the past appeared, we hung out together, and we got to where we are now.
She became entangled with Kang Ha-jun, who was the first to enter, and now they have become lovers… … .
“Seongyul. “Why is your face suddenly turning red?”
Namgoong Hyuk, who was across from me, quickly noticed and asked. Eunyul turned her head without answering. I couldn’t bear to say that while I was eating, I thought dirty thoughts without realizing it.
But I guess turning my head like that wasn’t a good idea. Kang Ha-jun, who was sitting next to me, raised his hands and covered my face.
“Do you still have a fever?”
Kang Ha-jun touched Eun-yul’s forehead and cheek and started to worry. Namgoonghyuk and even Haneul were watching, so Eunyul removed his hand and hurriedly shook her head.
“It’s nothing.”
“It’s red here too.”
Kang Ha-jun’s thumb touched the area under his eyes. I reflexively tried to get away from him with my eyes closed, but then flinched. I think another hand just brushed my lips.
“What are you doing?”
At the sound of Namgoonghyuk clicking his tongue, Eunyul opened her eyes and looked to the side. Kang Ha-jun’s hand had not completely left his face yet. So I just rolled my eyes and looked towards Namgoonghyuk, and he shook his head and pointed to the side with his hand.
“It’s not okay to just fight in front of your child.”
Eun-yul shook her head when he asked her if she was giving off a strange atmosphere. I shook off the dust that was on my face, or rather his hand, and straightened his body.
“I was wondering why this kid is eating and sleeping at the restaurant these days.”
Namgoonghyuk’s eyes narrowed and he glanced away. I don’t know what happened, but I had a rough understanding of it.
