How to define you
- Side story, the story after that (2)



석민
"How have you been, hyung?"

Seokmin smiled brightly at Jihoon and sat down in front of him.


지훈
"What about me? What about you?"

Seokmin clapped and smiled at Jihoon's answer.


석민
"Wow, daebak hyung, you've really changed a lot! ㅋㅋㅋㅋ"


석민
"Oh, I'm not swearing lol"


석민
"I'm just curious haha"

Seokmin just stares at Jihoon with a stupid smile.


지훈
" what's the matter? "


석민
"No, it's just... you look so happy."


석민
"It seems like my impression has improved as well..."

Jihoon let out a sigh and asked Seokmin how he was doing.


지훈
"How are you doing these days? And so are other people."


석민
"I'm studying these days."

Seokmin spoke in a playful tone.


석민
"I don't have any connections like my older brother, so I have to study hard!"

Seokmin, who was sipping the drink he had ordered earlier, begins to tell the story little by little.


석민
"Oh, and Seung-kwan also left the organization."


지훈
" ....okay? "

Ji-hoon nodded as if surprised.


석민
"Yeah lol. And I heard you have a new favorite celebrity these days?"


지훈
"He said he wouldn't like celebrities."


석민
"Uh... There's this really famous model these days! Her name is Choi Han-sol... right?"


석민
"Anyway, he kept saying things like I was handsome."

Ji-hoon showed a faint smile as if he was like Boo Seung-kwan.


석민
"Hyung Jeonghan... is also adjusting well!"


석민
"It was cool~"


석민
"Ah, Jisoo hyung is doing well too!"


석민
"It's a bit empty without my older brother, but things are going well."

Seokmin, who had been showing a warm smile, blushed for no reason.


지훈
"What is it? Why is it like that?"


석민
"Ah hahaha I'm also weird, right?"


석민
"Just seeing my brother doing well... I feel like crying"


석민
"You've had a hard life, hyung."


석민
"I'm so glad that you seem to be smiling more than before."

Seokmin stopped talking as his emotions rose and nodded quietly.

Jihoon approached Seokmin, crouched down, and looked at him.


지훈
"Why are you talking like that, like I'll never see you again?"


지훈
"We'll see each other again."


지훈
"So don't get hurt"


지훈
"Don't make it harder for me"


지훈
"Live with a smile"

Seokmin leaned his face against Jihoon's hand, which was caressing his cheek.


석민
"Brother... You've really changed a lot in such a short time."

Seokmin looked at Jihoon with tearful eyes and smiled.


석민
"It's so nice to see you."

의화
"Ugh.... haa, haa...."

Beyond the heavy breathing of Uihwa, the voices of thick men could be heard from behind.

어떤 아저씨들
" Over there!! "

Eui-hwa's face was already covered in sweat, as if he had been running for some time.


의화
"Ugh!...."

The running horse ended up twisting his ankle and falling to the ground.

어떤 아저씨들
"This guy is fast... ha, really."

One of the men in the group grabbed the fallen soldier by the collar.

어떤 아저씨들
"Hey, when are you going to pay me back?"


의화
" ....... "

Ui-hwa glares at the man holding her by the collar.

어떤 아저씨들
"Don't close your eyes...!!"

As soon as the man's hand rose, Ui-hwa's eyes closed.

The justification for closing one's eyes opens them again to a pain that cannot be felt.


의화
" ....you "

When I opened my eyes...


하여주
" high. "

The female protagonist was holding the wrist of the man who was about to hit Wihwa.


의화
"What are you...?"

어떤 아저씨들
"What are you!! Won't you let go?! "


하여주
"Is this your taste? Playing tag with old men."


의화
"What nonsense...! "

Puhahaha!, the female protagonist burst out laughing.


하여주
"Just kidding."

Ui-hwa, who had been questioning the heroine's unexpected actions, looks at her.


하여주
"Hey you guys over there"


하여주
"How much does this thing cost?"

어떤 아저씨들
"Haha, what can I help you with?"

The man who was speaking smiled bitterly.

어떤 아저씨들
"100 million."

At the man's words, the female protagonist looked at Ui-hwa without saying anything.


의화
"I borrowed it... no....."


하여주
" ...... "

The heroine thought for a moment


하여주
"I'll invest in your dream"


하여주
"You instead"

Show two fingers.


하여주
"It's worth twice as much to me"


채연
'Wow, you're really fast, heroine!!'

학생들
'Wow, what is this? / This is so fast.. Isn't this just number one?!'


의화
' ...... '


의화
" ....... "


하여주
"Or just keep playing tag with the old men."

At the sight of Ui-hwa hesitating, the heroine was about to take a step forward.


의화
"I will do it"

The doctor spoke.

At those words of righteousness, the female protagonist turned around and began to relax.


하여주
"Go to the corner over there and turn around."


_


Four years passed like that.


지훈
"A shining national representative... Lee Ui-hwa."


의화
- My family has had a very difficult time since I was little.


의화
- But one day...


의화
- It appeared right before my eyes.


의화
- The savior, you know.


지훈
"How many medals have you already won?"


하여주
"1 silver medal, 2 gold medals."


지훈
"That's amazing"

Ji-hoon, who was watching Ui-hwa's interview, turns off his phone and looks at Yeo-ju.


지훈
"So when will it be over, sir?"


하여주
"There's still time left. Do you want to go eat lunch, Manager Lee?"

Ji-hoon, who was sitting in his seat, got up and stood behind Yeo-ju, who was sitting at the desk.


지훈
"You won't regret it?"


하여주
" ...... "

The female lead, who had been looking at the computer, turned around and looked at Ji-hoon.


하여주
"Isn't that Agent Lee?"


지훈
" ....... "

As the female protagonist was talking while holding Ji-hoon's cheeks, Ji-hoon eventually broke away from the female protagonist.


지훈
"......Hurry up"

The female protagonist, who had been laughing, put her arm on Ji-hoon's shoulder as he gathered his outerwear and walked away.


하여주
"Let's go eat"


지훈
"Sigh... You said there was some left"


하여주
"I don't have to work overtime"


하여주
"Just the two of us"

I approached Lee Ji-hoon's lips.


지훈
" ...Ah, please do it, it's annoying....... "

And then it stopped again in front of my lips.


하여주
'What the hell are you talking about?'

I closed my eyes tightly.

The breath of Hae-seo-ju, who had been approaching me with a hot touch, stopped in front of my mouth.


지훈
' ....... '


하여주
'This.... looks like a tomato.'

I thought we were kissing...


하여주
'I don't do skinship without the other person's consent'


하여주
'Tell me later when you want to do it'

A teasing tone.


지훈
' ....Oh, okay, I'll go first.'


I used to just be curious about you

Because I am a person outside my frame.


하여주
"Oh, I'm hungry. Let's go eat."

And it was weird


지훈
"I don't know, you eat it alone"

I know what kind of people other people are.

You're the only one who doesn't know.


하여주
"Lee Ji-hoon"


하여주
"Come here"

But now


지훈
"You come"

I think I know.


지훈
"If you don't come, I'll really go."

There is no need for justice


하여주
" ....... "

Just be yourself,


하여주
"Jihoon"

The person I like.


하여주
"Do you want to go see the fireworks?"


>

하여주
Just call me when you need something.


하여주
I know I'm a very selfish person

???
Sister,

???
Sister, I need your strength.
