"Isn't this completely rich?"
"No, it's not! I remodeled it again, but at first it was so old it looked like it would collapse if you hit it."
"..That's amazing."
Jungkook spoke so quietly that Yeoju couldn't hear, but she was amazed that he understood immediately. Oh, and of course, the remodeled house was also fascinating. It was probably larger than Jungkook had imagined, which surprised him a bit, but at the same time, he felt relieved. Yeoju glanced at Jungkook, pointed down the hallway, and explained it to him.
"There are probably two rooms left over there. Choose a comfortable one, unpack your bags, and let's talk for a bit!"
"Oh, yes. Thank you very much."
"Oh, don't say thank you! Hurry up and unpack. I'll be waiting."
The female protagonist waved goodbye and walked towards the entrance of the hallway. Jungkook remained still for a moment, but clutched the suitcase he was holding tightly. Then, with a solemn expression, he walked away.
As he walked down the hallway, he saw one room in the middle and two at the ends. Jungkook wondered why a single person's house had so many rooms. After looking around each one, Jungkook decided on the room at the end of the hallway. It had basic necessities, and Jungkook, who tossed and turned a lot in his sleep, liked the bed the most.
He set all his belongings down on the floor to unpack. They were so heavy that Jungkook's hands were stained red. Jungkook chuckled at the sight of them. He glanced around the room again, then opened his suitcase and luggage, taking out all the clothes he'd brought with him, along with his personal belongings. Everything was black, gray, and a few bright whites, along with his wallet and watch.
"Oh, right, a cell phone."
He suddenly remembered the cell phone he had personally thrown away earlier. Jungkook thought for a moment, then forgot the thought without a second thought. He could always buy a new phone, after all. Jungkook quickly tidied up his clothes and changed into comfortable clothes. As he took off his clothes, the scars from his injuries were revealed.
Jungkook looked at the scars on his shoulders, back, and arms. He sighed and quickly put on the T-shirt he'd pulled out.
'It will disappear someday...'
"Huh? You came sooner than I thought."
"I just came back after cleaning up briefly. Do you have anything to say?"
"Oh, we'll be spending some time together, so I thought we should get to know each other better..!"
"......."
"Well... if you're uncomfortable, you don't have to tell me. We know each other's names anyway."
"I'm from Seoul."
The female protagonist was a little nervous when she saw Jeong-guk's blunt expression, but she was relieved when Jeong-guk told her his story.
And then I listened to his story, giving him some feedback here and there.
"I was just tired and wanted to let go of everything, so I searched the internet for some random place and found this place. That's why I came here... and this is how I met you."
"I don't know why it was so hard, but judging by the fact that you took action right away, it must have been really hard. You've worked hard, sir! Don't worry about anything while you're here, and rest comfortably!"
"..Thank you. But I'm still too young to be called uncle."
"Wow, how old are you?"
"..I'm 27 years old."
"Wow, I'm going to be 30 soon? Poor guy..."
"No, I'm not an old man yet!"
When Jungkook spoke to Yeoju with a dumbfounded expression, Yeoju laughed so hard that her stomach hurt. She laughed so hard that tears welled up in her eyes. Jungkook looked at Yeoju with displeasure. Yeoju, seeing Jungkook's expression, coughed and continued speaking.
"I just turned 20 this year!"
"...what!?"
When Jungkook covered his mouth with his hand in surprise, the female protagonist looked at Jungkook in confusion. In fact, the female protagonist was much smaller than Jungkook and still had a cute face, so I thought she was only 20 years old, but I didn't know it was true. In fact, the female protagonist was more calm than Jungkook.
Jungkook shook his head, touching his forehead with his finger.
"Should I call you oppa or uncle?"
"Could you please stop asking questions with such a bright smile? I'm really serious right now."
"Why? What's the problem? Did you fall in love with me at first sight, mister? Heh heh heh."
"No, what the heck, love at first sight!!! Don't make me a weirdo."
"Oh my gosh? When did I make you a weird person? Hehe."
Jungkook sighed as he looked at Yeoju, who was smiling brightly as if nothing had happened. Reporters can't come here, but if they did, it would be a headache. Yeoju thought for a moment and then spoke to Jungkook.
"But sir."
"..Why?"
"Oh, just speak informally! Why do you keep speaking formally?"
"You're doing that too."
"Ahem, anyway, what on earth did you do in Seoul to be in such good shape?"
"...hobby."
"Wow, I'm tired.."
Jungkook was still a little suspicious of Yeoju. It was embarrassing to say it out loud, but if police from all over the country were looking for him, he could tell how popular he was. He was also active overseas, so he had many international fans, so he could be called a true trending idol of this era.
But since he didn't know anything about himself, it was only natural for Jungkook to be suspicious. As he looked around the living room, a thought suddenly occurred to him. Usually, there was a TV in the living room, but there was no TV in this house.
"But there's no TV?"
"It's been so long since I asked you to install the TV and you still haven't come! I'm really speechless...ㅋㅋㅋ"
"Ah... So there wasn't a TV originally?"
"Actually, I don't really watch TV. I just watch on my phone because it's more convenient!"
At those words, Jeongguk's heart skipped a beat. Of course, there was no way he didn't know him. If Yeoju watched the news often, she would have known it was Jeongguk from the start. But it seemed like Yeoju really didn't know Jeongguk.
Jungkook shook his head and looked outside at the setting sun.
The sunset was really pretty.
By the way, the female protagonist really doesn't know Jeongguk!
The innocent heroine..❤️
