강여주 image

강여주

It did come out though...

강여주 image

강여주

Where are you?

I was wandering around in front of the apartment.

-Jiying, jiying

강여주 image

강여주

A phone call?

Jeonghan

강여주 image

강여주

It's Jeonghan

-Click,

강여주 image

강여주

윤정한 image

윤정한

-Sister!

강여주 image

강여주

Yeah, where are you?

윤정한 image

윤정한

-Come into the alley!

강여주 image

강여주

Oh, I see

-Ttuk

I hung up the phone and went into the alley.

윤정한 image

윤정한

Sister!

Jeonghan found me and waved happily.

강여주 image

강여주

But why did you call?

윤정한 image

윤정한

Ah.. I have something to give you!

윤정한 image

윤정한

..to see your face too..

Jeonghan muttered something and said.

강여주 image

강여주

You have something to give me?

윤정한 image

윤정한

yes

Jeonghan smiled brightly.

윤정한 image

윤정한

This one!

Jeonghan handed me a mysterious bag.

It felt like there was something heavy inside.

Something like a plastic container..?

강여주 image

강여주

what's this?

I accepted the bag Jeonghan gave me and looked it over.

The outside was warm.

윤정한 image

윤정한

Kill me!

강여주 image

강여주

.. porridge?

윤정한 image

윤정한

yes,

윤정한 image

윤정한

Just because I fell...

윤정한 image

윤정한

I bought abalone porridge

Jeonghan smiled shyly.

강여주 image

강여주

ah...

Something came up and made me sad.

강여주 image

강여주

..Thank you, I'll eat well.

I laughed out loud.

윤정한 image

윤정한

Don't overdo it.

윤정한 image

윤정한

You don't have to try to live up to your brother's standards.

윤정한 image

윤정한

Because you are my older sister.

윤정한 image

윤정한

Not Kang Yeo-eun, but Kang Yeo-ju.

Tears welled up in my eyes for a moment.

I think it was the first time that someone really acknowledged me as ‘Kang Yeo-ju.’

No, is it the second time?

Will my father think of me as ‘Kang Yeo-ju’ now?

윤정한 image

윤정한

Sister... your eyes are red

강여주 image

강여주

ah...!

I quickly turned around and wiped away my tears.

윤정한 image

윤정한

...?

강여주 image

강여주

..I'll go now

윤정한 image

윤정한

Oh.. okay

I waved my hand to Jeonghan.

Then, Jeonghan also waved his hand with a faint smile.

I headed home, holding the warm porridge tightly in my arms.

강여주 image

강여주

phew....

For some reason, I had a good feeling about the future.

I thought my life was an eternal rainy season with only dark clouds,

I guess this rainy season is finally over.

It seemed as if the sun was shining brightly behind the dark clouds.

강여주 image

강여주

Let's eat some porridge!

I slowly ate the porridge Jeonghan gave me.

A warm feeling filled my whole body.

- 3 days later -

선생님

Everyone worked hard on the exam.

선생님

Let's all go home-,

As soon as the teacher finished speaking, everyone started moving busily to go home.

I finished the test not badly, although not as well as Yeo-eun.

I felt much more at ease now that the burden of having to meet Yeo-eun's standards was gone.

윤정한 image

윤정한

My lady!

강여주 image

강여주

Ah, Jeonghan..!

윤정한 image

윤정한

Did you do well on your test?

Jeonghan asked with a cheeky smile.

강여주 image

강여주

I just watched it so-so..

윤정한 image

윤정한

Chemistry is difficult after all..?

강여주 image

강여주

huh..

I smiled awkwardly.

윤정한 image

윤정한

that...

Jeonghan hesitated as if he was about to say something.

강여주 image

강여주

huh?

윤정한 image

윤정한

The exam is over...

윤정한 image

윤정한

If you don't have any plans after that...

윤정한 image

윤정한

Do you want to go out and play with me?
