We decided not to cross the line.

Episode 119. Hoonji Who Ran Away From Home

After finishing work at the cafe,

I came home.





"You’re not back yet.
 
Just where did you go that you’ve been out all day?"





Only then did I start to worry.





"Is he really that angry?"





I put down my bag and laptop

and went out to look for him.





'I still don’t really know my way around here...

Where did he go and stay all day?'





I did come outside, but

I had no idea where to go look for him.





Where might he have gone?

I thought about it carefully.





Then a place suddenly came to mind.





'Could it be...

Did he climb up that hill where he came to pick me up back then...?'





I couldn’t be sure,

but I decided to check there first.





Now that I was in a hurry,

the place I had climbed slowly last night felt pretty far away.






Before I knew it, as I neared the summit,

I was out of breath.





Just as I was almost there,

I saw his back.





'Ah... thank goodness....

At least he was somewhere I knew... '






"Hunji!!!"





I shouted loudly.

He turned around in surprise.

And a big grin spread across his face.





"You’ve been here all day?"





"Why are you so late?

I’ve been waiting forever..."






"What?

You were waiting for me to come find you?"





"I thought you’d follow me soon enough after I left...

Do you really love me?"

You came by the cafe, worked, and then came all the way here, right?"





"Ha... Hunji...

Are you playing hard to get with me right now?

I thought you were just a little sulking.

If you weren’t coming, you could’ve just come back down.

Were you planning to wait until I came?"





"I did think about just going back down...

But honestly, I also wanted to see if Jeong-ah would really come get me.

This morning, you said you needed some time alone too...

and I started wondering if you really loved me..."

"At times like this, really..."





'They say men are just kids no matter how old they get...

 
That really fits you to a T.'

I couldn’t bring myself to




say that out loud.

"I love you a lot, Hunji.





Don’t doubt it.

I spent over two years trying to forget you,

but in the end, I couldn’t.

Doesn’t that say enough?

I love you more than anyone. Really, a lot."

Hunji, looking deeply moved,





pulled me into a hug.

It was really absurd,





baffling,

and kind of funny,

but still, just having him right in front of me
 
put me at ease.

"If we stay here much longer, the sun’ll set soon.





Let’s hurry and head down."

I pulled the moved Hunji back to reality.




"I was bored to death,




spending time alone in the middle of nowhere."

At his words, I burst out laughing.




"Nobody forced you to stay here...




why go out of your way to suffer?"

"Ah... I’m hungry too.





What’s on today’s menu, chef?"

"Hmm... today’s main dish is





for our Hunji, who suffered all day,

salmon steak served with mashed potatoes and roasted asparagus.

Does that suit your taste?"

"Yes!! Very much!!

May I have a glass of wine?"





"Of course!! Two glasses are possible."

"Thank you!!"




"Huh? I think I remember this place..."
