Just when I was living as if I couldn't tolerate even a single moment of happiness, he came up behind me again and suffocated me. Meeting Seokjin in such a life was like a miracle to me.
But I guess the world is twisted because I'm happy. So, since it's the weekend, I went to the hospital and had a quick chat with Seokjin in the examination room when I got a call from Seokjin on his cell phone.
"hello?"
- Are you Mr. Kim Seok-jin?
"Yes, that's right. Who are you?
- This is the police station. We have received a report of assault against Mr. Kim Seok-jin. Please come here.
It was clear what Park Jimin had done. He must have been unhappy that Teacher Seokjin had upset him at that time. I tried to stop him, but Teacher Seokjin stubbornly said it was okay and headed to the police station with me.
As we entered the police station, Park Jimin snickered and pointed at us, or rather, at the old man, and spoke loudly to the detective as if telling him to listen.
"There you are, can I sue you for assault?"
"Please sue me, it's okay."
Teacher Seokjin smiled as if nothing had happened and told Park Jimin to do whatever he wanted, placing a yellow envelope on the detective's desk that he had gotten at some point.
And then, still in a calm voice, he chewed and pressed each word out.
"I will sue you too."
"No, please don't do this."
"If there are pictures in it, there will be enough evidence."
At Seokjin's words, the detective touched his forehead as if his head was hurting. Park Jimin snatched the envelope and opened it, his face reddening, and tore the photos into pieces.
Phew-!!!!!!
I swung my fist hard at Teacher Seokjin.
In an instant, Seokjin, whose cheeks were red from being hit by Park Jimin's fist, wiped the smile off his face.
"개새끼가 어디서 기어올라, 너 의사면허 정지 당하고싶어?!"
"Jimin!!"
It's been a long time since I've seen Park Jimin's face, angry and whining. I don't think I've ever seen it since I was very young. What on earth was that picture that made Park Jimin so angry?
At that moment, the police station door opened and the woman who was inside the noisy building, the mother who abandoned me, rushed in and checked on Park Jimin and calmed him down.
Then he came to me and slapped my cheek before I could stop him. "Okay, that's what happened." This time, too, there were no expectations. They were really close friends, so they couldn't help but hit me whenever they saw me.
"You? You manipulated that person and hit our Jimin."
"..I guess the mother thinks that a grown man is a fool who listens to everything the child says."
Now my teeth are chattering.
For the first time, I blocked out the words that were flying at me. I didn't want to live like this anymore, and I didn't want to show this ugly side of myself in front of Seokjin.
The madam glared at me as if I were a disaster, her teeth chattering. This time, she changed her target and turned her head to look at Seokjin, whose cheek was swollen from being hit by Park Jimin earlier, and shouted.
"When you hit my son, you can assume that you were prepared to have your medical license suspended."
"Try it, you can't stop without a good reason."
When Teacher Seokjin looked straight at his wife and spoke, she couldn't control her anger and started yelling at the detective and saying that she was going to sue him.
This can't be happening. What did I, Seokjin, do wrong that I have to be sued for? Why the hell is this not right? I...
"....We didn't do anything wrong."
