Now that I knew where he was, I was going to go find Kang Ha-jun.
“ah… … .”
And when she finally found Kang Ha-jun, emotions other than joy made Eun-yul stop in place and not move.
His expression was so dangerous as he was wet from head to toe, holding his phone tightly in one hand.
“why… … .”
Why are you doing this?
As Eun-yul approached, Kang Ha-jun turned his body to make eye contact. Kang Ha-jun’s eyes opened wide and then returned to their original state. He walked towards Eunyul, flipping his rain-soaked bangs.
“ah… … The sky is inside. “He fell asleep, so I laid him down in the wagon and left him in the care of the manager for a while.”
Eunyul didn’t ask about Haneul, but he told her about it. I looked at the sign of the building behind Kang Ha-jun and nodded. Although we haven’t mentioned it so far, Kang Ha-jun was an executive at the headquarters of a cafe with hundreds of chain stores across the country.
“I should have gone inside and waited.”
Eunyul draped an umbrella over his head. Even though I left it to Haneul, he came out even though the rain had not stopped. Even without an umbrella.
“It’s all wet.”
Not only was he soaked, but steam was rising from his shoulders. That meant he moved so quickly that his body became feverish. I don’t know if it was because it was raining so hard that my ears were deaf, or if my heart was pounding when I saw Kang Ha-jun. I just wanted to know why he did that.
To do that, my story came first.
“I thought they would be waiting for me there, so I bought an umbrella and planned to go right away.”
I was a little late because I bought an umbrella, but since it was raining, I figured it was expected.
“It’s my fault. “I should have called to say I would be a little late to buy an umbrella.”
If that were the case, I would have known right away that he was calling.
“Did I worry you?”
Eunyul stole the moisture that fell on Kang Hajun’s shoulder. That didn’t make the wet clothes dry or the heat go down, but that’s what I wanted to do.
“sorry.”
I could feel the rain subsiding through the umbrella I was holding. The sound of heavy rain also decreased. One day, when it was raining like this, I had a conversation with Kang Ha-jun… … . At that time, I told him I would never see him again, and now I was apologizing to him.
My mood sank as did my clothes, which were damp from the rain. It was just a passing shower, and I knew it wasn’t good to feel this way after coming to have fun, but I couldn’t control my emotions.
“It’s not your fault. “I couldn’t wait quietly.”
“That can happen. Even if it’s like me, if you can’t contact me… … .”
“I didn’t look for you even when I knew you could make bad choices.”
“… … .”
I wasn’t talking about the conflicting present. His eyes became blurred.
“I shouldn’t have left you like that. I, I… … “I sent you to your death.”
His voice pierced Eunyul’s heart. Kang Ha-jun was drenched in guilt. When he thinks he’s happy to be his lover, he’s been thinking about it the whole time.
“Like a fool.”
Eunyul’s mutterings were drowned out by the sound of rain. However, Kang Ha-jun saw Eun-yul’s lips move. Seeing his gaze as if asking her to say it again, Eunyul shouted at the top of her voice.
“You’re stupid!”
As if it were a lie, the rain stopped and Eunyul’s cry rang out quite loudly. So much so that Kang Ha-jun, who was close by because they were under the same umbrella, was surprised.
However, there was no time to worry about Kang Ha-jun’s reaction right now. Thinking about the pain he must have been through all this time made me angry.
I didn’t even know that, but these days my mood was so high that I couldn’t calm down.
“Why is it your fault?”
It was his choice that Seong Eun-yul died in the original. No, in the first place, he did a lot of things he shouldn’t have done in order to take over Kang Ha-jun. Because he was a villain, the writer originally made him a villain to harass Kang Ha-jun and Hyeon Je-ha and drive a wedge between them.
He had no hesitation in doing something that would cause trauma to Hyun Je-ha in order to take over Kang Ha-jun. Because I knew that he felt pain from the alpha’s pheromones, I sprayed him with pheromones openly. Is that all? Hyun Jae-ha was the last opponent to make Kang Ha-jun lose patience, and before that, he touched many more people related to Kang Ha-jun.
This is all done by Seong Eun-yul in the original work. He was a person who did not mind tormenting others with his selfish greed.
“You know better what a mean person Seongyul was. “I bought a gangster and had him hit other people, and I even made Hyun Je-ha fall down several times.”
As I was reading the novel, I felt like I wanted to put it away quickly. I didn’t know that I would become such a foreign body, but… … . That’s why I wanted to avoid Hyun Je-ha and Kang Ha-jun even more.
“Even if I were to die, I’m still a human being worth dying for, and it can’t be said that it’s all your fault. did you kill me “Even if I die, it’s my choice.”
That choice was entirely up to Seong Eun-yul.
So when I became Seong Eun-yul, I chose to live and live a life that had nothing to do with Kang Ha-jun. Just as he did not want to reveal the existence of heaven to him.
“It’s still like that. If you felt sorry for me, you should have said it a long time ago. You kept harboring it, right? “Is it because of that guilt that you came to me despite the rain?”
Eun-yul grabbed Kang Ha-jun’s clothes as if holding his collar.
“Why aren’t you saying anything?”
I never thought it would be so frustrating to see Kang Ha-jun, who is usually so talkative, keep his mouth shut.
“I should say that I looked for you not because I was sorry or out of guilt, but because I was worried about my lover.”
Eunyul forced him to tell him the correct answer.
“Even though we cannot live completely ignoring the past… … “Now that we’ve met again, we have to look to the future and move on.”
I wanted to share love with him with that feeling. The reason I didn’t stay away from Kang Ha-jun at first was because I assumed he was the main character of the original work and had already become involved with Hyeon Je-ha. After that, when I hung out with Kang Ha-jun, I was wary of Haneul being taken away, but as time went by, I was swayed by him, fell in love with him, and eventually fell in love with him.
“ah… … .”
That’s right, she didn’t give Kang Ha-jun enough feelings. He really gave me his whole heart and he realized that it was love.
“Eunyul… … .”
Eun-yul bowed her head in response to Kang Ha-jun’s call to say something. It had been a long time since he dropped his umbrella and it had not rained, so he could not bear to raise his head.
I didn’t want to show him the tears that were flowing without me knowing.
“You can’t change the past.”
Kang Ha-jun’s hand touched Eun-yul’s cheek, as if he had noticed that Eun-yul was crying even though he couldn’t see her. My thumb brushed my cheek and wiped away the tears, but strangely, more tears came out.
“Just as I can’t erase what you did, I can’t erase what I did to you either. So I can’t erase this feeling of guilt.”
“why… … .”
I say I’m fine, but why do I want to live with such guilt? Eunyul lowered her head and asked as if her neck was crying out of frustration.
“So I’m trying to let it fade little by little over time.”
“what?”
Eunyul raised her head in response to his answer that he would solve the guilt that could not be completely erased in a different way. I wanted to see his eyes rather than have my face messed up.
“love you.”
Kang Ha-jun kissed Eun-yul’s cheek.
“I will do better from now on and make you smile more. “If you allow it, I will dilute my guilt little by little.”
“You’re telling me you love me now…” … .”
When asked if he did it right, Kang Ha-jun hugged Eun-yul tightly.
“love you. Seong Eun-yul.”
It was much deeper and sweeter than the confession she had made in the morning, so Eunyul closed her eyes and pondered what she had just heard.
“It’s sweeter than the confession I made.”
I don’t know why, maybe it was because I liked his voice, but it had the power to calm Eunyul, who had been shedding tears just now.
“Don’t go out in the rain like today.”
“okay.”
“Don’t look so dangerous.”
“huh.”
“It’s nice to hear you confess that you love me, so I do it often.”
“I’ll do it every day.”
Eunyul let out a long breath as the conversation felt like a lingering confirmation of each other’s feelings. All kinds of emotions poured into my heart like a shower that fell in a short period of time. But now, I felt safe in Kang Ha-jun’s arms. Eun-yul whispered with her eyes closed, feeling good about the warmth she felt from where she was in contact with him, but feeling that it was not enough.
“And we can have sex as much as we want.”
Kang Ha-jun’s body stiffened and then he hugged Eun-yul tightly.
“What is this?”
Lim Bong-sun clicked his tongue when he saw Eun-yul and Kang Ha-jun soaking wet. Those who went out excitedly to have fun came back looking like drowned mice.
“It rained a lot.”
Eunyul twisted her sleeve and muttered. I had already squeezed it earlier and there was no more water coming out, but it was to avoid Im Bong-soon’s harsh gaze and distract her.
Kang Ha-jun put the handkerchief on Eun-yul’s clothes. It seemed like he was trying to absorb moisture with a handkerchief, but when Kang Ha-jun got caught in the rain, the handkerchief also got wet.
In other words, it is a meaningless gesture.
Lim Bong-soon looked even more pitiful at the actions of Eun-yul and Kang Ha-jun. She doesn’t think wet clothes will dry just because she looks at it like that.
“You didn’t even have time to buy clothes?”
“It’s not like it doesn’t exist… … .”
Kang Ha-jun already said he had a cold and asked me to change clothes. But Eunyul refused.
I wanted to go back quickly. I didn’t even have time to buy clothes. Kang Ha-jun, who must have read Eun-yul’s thoughts, turned on the heater in the front seat and quickly came to Soon-i’s restaurant.
Haneul fell asleep at the amusement park, never waking up, and is now in the back seat, and now in the room inside the restaurant.
“Please take a look at the sky for just one day.”
“When I see you guys hanging around, I feel like I have no choice but to spend a day.”
Lim Bong-soon openly dismissed Eun-yul and Kang Ha-jun. Those gazes seemed to say that they both knew what they were going to do, so Eunyul flinched in surprise.
“It’s not like that. I just have something to talk about with Hajun… … .”
“Who said anything? “I said it because I thought I would catch a cold.”
“ah… … Was it something like that?”
“Tsk.”
Lim Bong-soon went inside and brought something, throwing it to the two.
It was two towels and a thermos. When Eun-yul put a towel to Kang Ha-jun’s dry face, he took the towel to Eun-yul’s share. Then, he shook Eunyul’s hair with a towel instead.
“Don’t think about giving Haneul a cold, take care of yourselves first.”
“What is this?”
“Ginger tea.”
Lim Bong-sun kindly spoke to Eun-yul as she lifted the thermos around.
“Ginger tea isn’t that great.”
It was sweet, but I didn’t like it because I felt like the ginger’s unique bitterness was scratching my throat. So she complained, and Lim Bong-soon’s expression turned disapproving.
“go.”
Eunyul only took a step backwards at the clean congratulatory message, as if she had finished speaking. Kang Ha-jun took the thermos in his hand and went to the car first.
When only the two of them were left, Eunyul called Lim Bongsoon.
“grandma.”
“why.”
It was a blunt answer, but I could feel the affection for him embedded in it.
“I’m sorry that I keep asking heaven to look at me these days.”
“I have a lot to be sorry for.”
