"Why aren't you contacting me? Are you really trying to break up with me? You've been waiting."
"Kang Tae-hyun, what kind of manners are you, coming here without even contacting me?"
"Is that important to you now?"
"Get out. I'll talk to you in the morning."
"Hey, Kim Yeo-ju"
As I was about to close the door, Taehyun stopped me. I don't know why he came, or what he wanted to hear from me, but one thing's for sure: we're no longer casual visitors to my house.
Yeonjun came out of his room, perhaps puzzled by the noise outside. He didn't even have to look back to see his rotten expression. Ha... I don't want to bring this up.
"Sister, should I cook dinner today?"
"..uh?"
"I'm sorry, but please come next time. I'm not feeling well today, and I'm not feeling well, so I don't think I can have a serious conversation."
Taehyun looked at us both with a look of displeasure at Yeonjun's calmer words than expected. Then he took a deep breath and left, saying he would contact us.
As soon as Taehyun left, Yeonjun hugged me and buried his face in my neck.
"Did I do well?"
"thank you"
"That guy still seems to be foolish... Let's talk things over tomorrow and settle this. I have absolutely no intention of letting you go."
"We've already broken up. As you said, Taehyun seems to have a lot to say, so we'll talk tomorrow."
And you know you won't let me go, right? Go set the cutlery. I turned around and stroked Yeonjun's head, who had grown so much in the blink of an eye. Only then did he let me go and ran to the kitchen.
It was an afternoon when I had a lot of thoughts.

"I knew he was the one who would keep your seat. That makes me even more angry. Why him?"
"Taehyun.."
"처음부터 누나 집에 내가 있었다면,그 개새끼 안 들여보내줬다면 상황이 이렇게까지 왔을 것 같아? 난 그렇게 생각 안 해"
"Watch what you say,"
"Again... Don't protect him again. I don't want to see you telling me not to protect him in front of me."
"Kang Taehyun, why are you like that?"
You're the one who made things like this between us.
It's funny to be talking about this in such a famously pretty cafe, but I thought I absolutely had to finish it today.
"Yeonjun? Yeah, Yeonjun protected me. Every time you made me miserable."
"..."
"You're busy, you have a prior engagement, you're not feeling well today. I know you've been avoiding me, making excuses, but I held on and met you because I loved you."
"Sister... I'm really sorry. I won't do it again, okay?"
"No, Taehyun, I'm tired... I can't do this kind of relationship anymore. I don't have the confidence to like you anymore."
Taehyun finally lowered his head. He seemed to have nothing to say, but he'd better get up first. He held his coffee cup tightly as he spoke, hiding his trembling hands. He felt relieved, but he couldn't help feeling uneasy.
I ended up feeling gloomy all the way home. I didn't want Yeonjun to see me looking so depressed... I was thinking about going out to change my mood when Yeonjun called.
[Pretty Jun]
"hello?"
"Sister..."
"Yeonjun, why is your voice like that? What's wrong?"
"Something's wrong, come home quickly."
"What the hell is going on? Wait, I'll be there soon!"
What the heck all of a sudden!..
I forgot about my bad mood and ran home in a hurry.
It wasn't too far since it was close by and it didn't take long at a brisk pace, but I ran for the first time in a while. As soon as I turned the handle, panting,
"..Oh, you're here already.. No, hello, unnie."
The house was a mess with party supplies.
