Between the blooming and falling of flowers
Episode 15: Flower Shop. Episode 3



작가
I'm late because I wanted to get back as soon as possible after the exam period ends. Thank you to everyone who waited for me.

(This is an episode from Yeoju's perspective)

My father was always busy

Still, he always told us and his mother that he loved us and that he would do anything for his family.

It was a perfect family...

Until my mother got sick...

My brother and I stayed by our mother's side every day.

As my mother's symptoms worsened, my father came home later and later, and he was already frequently on business trips.

The number of days you return home has further decreased.

Then one day... I heard my brother and father fighting inside the house, and as soon as I entered,

My father grabbed my wrist

아버지
"I've packed all your luggage, so go to your room and get the things you need."


윤정한
"Father!!.. "

아버지
"I'll take Yeoju, so you should know that. How can you take care of the kids when you can't even take care of yourself? At least Yeoju, you should know that because I'll take you!"


윤정한
"No, father, I can't let the heroine go. I can't let a human like you take the heroine away!!"

윤여주
"....."


윤정한
".. Don't go. Don't go, Yeoju. Live with your brother and mom.."

윤여주
".. I am... "

아버지
"You want me to live like that all the way to Yeoju?! That won't do! Let's go, Yeoju."

아버지
"I'll send you living expenses and hospital bills every month, so just sign the divorce papers."

So my father roughly grabbed my wrist and slammed the front door shut.

I was dragged here without being able to say anything, without knowing anything about the situation.

in fact...

Actually... I wish I were naive

It would be better to really not know than to pretend not to know.

The new house that I was led to by my father's hand...

It was a house that seemed to be inhabited, except for the lack of luggage, as if my father had prepared it in advance.

So I ended up living with my father.

My father seemed to care a lot about me, and I spent the week like that.

Then my father remarried my stepmother.

The new mother I suddenly welcomed was quite young. She looked to be in her 40s and was a sophisticated young woman. But she had one son as old as me and another son in high school.

When my father brought my new mother home, the puzzles I had believed in and kept locked away until the very end... were finally solved.

It wasn't completely unexpected, but it was more shocking and uncomfortable than I expected.

When a new mother and new sons were born, my father's interest suddenly disappeared. Even the last thing he believed in... disappeared.

I thought of all the things I had foolishly thrown away

???
"Sister... are you crying?!"

윤여주
"?!...Who are you.."

I was crying like an idiot when someone came up to me, wiped my tears away, and called me "Noona, noona"


전정국
"Hey, sister... don't cry... why are you crying, did Chani make you cry?!"


이 찬
"I just happened to see my older sister crying!! I didn't cry.."

I met him for the first time. I felt a warm feeling of concern for someone I hadn't felt in a long time.

After that, I became closest with Jungkook, who was the one who approached me the most among my family members, and I also got to know Jungkook's friends.

Chan-i was among them

And among the guys that Jungkook mostly hangs out with are Seokjin and Yoongi.

윤여주
"!! Kim Seokjin?! You... knew Jungkook?!"


김석진
"!! Jungkook's new older sister is you?!"

So somehow, the 9 of us ended up hanging out together, led by Jeongguk.

I found my smile that I had lost little by little and gradually

My heart was swayed by the way he approached me, calling me "sister" every time and asking me questions.

I thought I liked it. Is this love?

Even though I liked him, I couldn't say it properly, and the more I did that, the more I played stupid pranks.

I was stupid

Then one day

???
"I like you.."


민윤기
"Chan, you idiot... I like it... he said..."


이 찬
"..hyung..hyung...?.. "


민윤기
"You don't like it? Of course you don't..."


이 찬
"No, I like it!"


이 찬
"Me too... I like it..."

To be honest, I have almost no memories of that day.

The two of them started dating and I was just sitting there like an idiot..

The only things I remember from that day are Chan-i's answer and Yoon-gi's gaze as he hugged Chan-i and glared at me. Other than that, I don't remember anything else.

Maybe it was just the pain of unrequited love, but after that I hardly ever went outside.

Why do tears keep flowing?

A little over a month passed like that.

Jeon Won-woo, who couldn't stand to watch, must have been frustrated and he kicked me out of the front door, telling me to run an errand if I was going to do this.

While I was running errands and going home, I happened to be heading to Jungkook's school...

Of course Chani was there

The person who patted me again then was...

I met him a few times and got to know him

Ah, I think you have feelings for me.. but

No, because I was very young.. Actually, it was because I was young and foolishly wanted to not get hurt..

I used the excuse of not wanting to hurt the child as an excuse to avoid hurting myself, but ended up hurting that little Subin.

But I don't want to hurt you anymore.


윤여주
"No... I don't take you for granted..."

윤여주
"I'm so glad I met you... because you loved me like this..."



(Yoongi's point of view episode)


민윤기
"....."


이 찬
"Yoon Ki-hyung!"


민윤기
"Oh... that's a surprise..."


이 찬
"Haha, hyung!"

I may seem blunt to others, but I tried not to seem that way to Chani.

But Chan-i, unaware of my feelings, always walked around with a bright smile.

If this continues, really...


민윤기
'If you keep smiling so prettily...'


민윤기
"bad"


이 찬
"What did you say, hyung..?"


민윤기
"If you keep smiling like that, it'll be bad for me... I'm worried..." (whispering)


이 찬
"... Hmm... Why are you worried about me, hyung?"


민윤기
"Because I... like you..."


민윤기
"I like you.."


이 찬
"....???.. "


민윤기
"Chan, you idiot. I said I like you."


이 찬
"....."

Silence flowed without an answer.


민윤기
"You don't like it? You probably don't like it.."


이 찬
"No! Okay!"


이 찬
"Me too... I like it..."

At that moment, I happened to see Yoon Yeo-ju's expression, and it looked like she was about to cry at any moment.

But he just glares at me and doesn't say anything


민윤기
"Can I hug you?"

I didn't really want to say anything, but for some reason I wanted to get Chan-i away from Yeo-ju Yoon, so I hugged Chan-i tightly in front of Yeo-ju.

So... I started dating Chani

Chan always goes to the front of the school and waits

No matter what anyone said, I always tried to be with Chani to the point where I would do anything for him.


이 찬
"Brother, can I not go to your house today..?"


민윤기
"Uh, it doesn't matter"

So I took Chani home

It was getting late and I was thinking of taking him home after a cup of tea.


민윤기
"Have a cup of tea and go. I'll take you there."

The moment I entered the house, Chan-i grabbed my wrist as I was heading to the kitchen.


민윤기
"Chan-ah..?"


이 찬
"...."


민윤기
"...!?... Chan, Chan.."

Chani suddenly pushed me and I fell onto the carpet and Chani...


민윤기
"What, what are you doing, Chan-ah.."


이 찬
"Is it okay.. or not..?"


민윤기
"It's not that I don't like it... It's just..."


just....
