firefighter
63.


의사
You overused your fractured arm, and it strained it. You'll have to be careful for the time being...


민윤기
...because it's not easy in my job.

의사
Hmm... Being a firefighter isn't easy. Still, he's recovering well for a few weeks, which is why he's in this condition. Otherwise, he'd have to be in a cast for a few more weeks.

의사
We will put a cast on your arm, so please avoid using your arm or exercising as much as possible and come back in a week.


민윤기
yes...


Yoon-ki took three days off from work due to pain in his fractured arm after the accident.

In fact, three days is an absurdly short amount of time to recover, but since we were so short-handed, we decided to return as quickly as possible.


민윤기
...I got a vacation, but... I have nowhere to go...

Seokjin hyung told me not to come here at all because it would disturb my rest...


민윤기
...

I've never really felt lonely...

Even on my days off, I don't have anyone to contact.

Jiing- Jiing-


민윤기
phone call...?

[mom]


민윤기
...

The two letters “Mom” that appeared on my phone screen touched my heart even more today.

I was usually blunt with him and I rarely contacted him first, so before I knew it, we were just exchanging words. But...


민윤기
- ...hello?

엄마
- Yoongi! What were you doing?

엄마
- Why haven't you been able to contact me lately, my son? I was worried.


민윤기
- I had a lot of work to do...

엄마
- Really? Is there anything difficult?

엄마
- If you're having a hard time, come home anytime. Dad misses you too.


민윤기
- Dad... Are you feeling well these days?

엄마
- Then~ Since both mom and dad are healthy, take care of yourself, Yoongi.

엄마
- I'll stop by your house soon to give you some side dishes.


민윤기
- Huh? My house?

엄마
- Yeah. You liked seaweed soup and stir-fried fish cakes, but it's been a long time since I made them.

엄마
-What do you want to eat?


민윤기
- You can just come with your body, but it's difficult...

엄마
- Ugh... What's so hard about a mother going to see her child?

엄마
Anyway, I'll be up soon. Your dad is asking for food. Hang up!


민윤기
- huh...

Thump-


민윤기
...'When was the last time you went home?'


민윤기
'It's already been more than half a year...'

..Since I'm on vacation, should I go home for the first time in a while?


"Hey, what do you think of me?"

As Yun-gi hung up the phone and was lost in thought, a woman's phone call came from a distance.

"A dating machine that just waits for you every day? Don't I have feelings? Do you even like me?"

"what!!!"


민윤기
...'Are you fighting?'

"...under..."

"...uh?"


강유빈
Mr. Yoongi?


민윤기
...teacher?


민윤기
...What's going on?

A half-closed tear came into her eye.

Even though she was trying to smile, the corners of her lips were still trembling and she was crying, and the tear tracks that had already flowed down her cheeks.


강유빈
...Does it look like that?


민윤기
...

I don't think I can say no.


강유빈
..Actually, I just got hit by the wind.


강유빈
We dated for 3 years...


민윤기
ah...


강유빈
...Mr. Yoongi, what are you doing today?


강유빈
Can you have a drink with me just once?
