Legal Politics [Chanbaek/Saejun/BL]
13.


It wasn't until I got to the emergency room that my fever started to rise and didn't go down easily. I ended up getting an additional Ringer's solution before my cold, numb fingertips could feel warm again.

I was worried about what to do with the contact lenses, but I had to put the broken watch aside for fear of getting hurt, and I didn't have any contact lenses because I wore glasses to work today.

The hair I had been diligently maintaining became tangled, and my bad habit of chewing my fingertips became red and irritated.


박찬열
Are you satisfied? You're saying this to make me feel guilty.

It's been a long time since I saw Baekhyun sleeping so quietly without a sound.

He whines and sleeps like a puppy every day. He sleeps so deeply that he doesn't wake up even when I finish giving him the ringer.

The doctor suggested that I stay in the hospital for about 3 days since the ringer would be drained within 30 minutes. I agreed and reserved a private room.


변백현
Moo-ul..

As I was barely able to lift my hand and wave it around, Chanyeol sighed deeply and put a straw to my mouth.


변백현
Isn't that a child?

I looked at the pink heart-shaped straw and knew it was a symbol of reconciliation, so I just chuckled.


박찬열
I'm really good at surprising my husband.


변백현
Where did my watch go?


박찬열
I threw it away.


변백현
Why throw it away? Give it to me. Come back to me.


박찬열
You threw it away?


변백현
Or at least rummage through the trash can.

Chanyeol sighed and put away the empty water cup.


변백현
Did you cry?


박찬열
What did you say?


변백현
With pride, did you cry?


박찬열
A little bit.


변백현
It's not just a small eye.


박찬열
It's because of rhinitis. It's because I sleep face down.


변백현
You have rhinitis, but your eyes are swollen? It's been about three years since I cured that. How long are you going to keep making excuses?


박찬열
Sleep more. The weight has all gone down. How could I have gained weight like that?


변백현
Chanyeol.


박찬열
yes~


변백현
Mr. Chanyeol.


박찬열
Yes, please speak.


변백현
Park Geum.


박찬열
What are you trying to say?


변백현
I'm sorry.


박찬열
If you're not sorry, then you have no conscience.


변백현
It was just empty words, but now you're a person without a conscience.


박찬열
"You were like that when we were dating, so it doesn't matter anymore. That's just how you apologize. Calling it empty words and using all sorts of nicknames. You stick to the old-fashioned way, and who are you to apologize to?"

Chanyeol, I still don't understand why you married me.


변백현
You knew, but you pretended not to know like a fox, pretended to be hurt, and took it all from me?

Why did you wait for me at the park on a rainy day? You knew I wasn't going out on purpose. What were you thinking when you came all the way to my house that day and saw my room light on?


박찬열
Why should I blame you for being so heartless? If you've done something wrong, you should at least grant me one of my wishes.

Why didn't you come when I was taken to the hospital after taking the medicine? You knew I was avoiding even the simple words "I love you" because they were too much for me to say. You said you would take that risk.

In the end, you left me on a rainy day.

It was you.

It was me.

It was your black umbrella.


변백현
love you.
