Let me try to persuade you.
#40. Warmth


"I like you, you idiot"

...



박소현
...

Sohyun confessed so forcefully, but her face turned red with embarrassment.

I couldn't help but let out a ragged breath as my heart throbbed uncontrollably, feeling like it was going to burst at any moment.



최연준
...


박소현
...(shudder)

Only now did Choi Yeonjun's face begin to appear.

The Fed looked quite surprised.

Although he seemed flustered, Choi Yeonjun quickly regained his composure as he was quick to assess the situation.

And with a much more serious expression than before.



최연준
...Hey, I,,

The Fed scratched its head awkwardly.

It was an apologetic look on his face.

of course

It was the expected result.



박소현
Don't tell me, I'm not confessing to expect an answer.


최연준
...


최연준
...huh


박소현
...


박소현
...(sob)

Oh, why is this happening?

It was definitely an expected result.

Why is it so unfair?

Even though I clearly expressed my feelings

Why do I feel so sad..?



최연준
...?


최연준
Hey, you... cry...


박소현
Shut the fuck up... Ugh!

Ah, it finally blew up.



최연준
...;;


박소현
Annoying..ugh! Me..Choiyeon..Jun..ugh!

He cried in front of the Fed, looking so pitiful.

With tears and snot running down my face



최연준
...Oh, really...


최연준
don't cry..;;


최연준
Why are you crying after confessing to me..;;


박소현
...Shit...Ugh!


박소현
I don't know either..ugh! Laa..!!!


최연준
...don't cry,


최연준
I'm not good at comforting people


박소현
...I know, you idiot... ugh!


최연준
...and the words are really harsh


박소현
Black!


최연준
...


최연준
...ha,


최연준
Calm down for a moment


최연준
Should I take you home?


최연준
huh?


박소현
...Ugh!

...You call that comforting?

That stupid idiot...


박소현
...Yeah, huh.. Whew!

Still, I was falling for the Fed's appeasement.

Without even being able to breathe properly

...

..

.




In the end, Choi Yeonjun took me home while I was crying.



최연준
Come in now


최연준
It just stopped


박소현
...Yeah


박소현
...Ugh!


최연준
...Oh my,


최연준
Is he answering or hiccuping?


박소현
...It's because of you, huh!


최연준
...


최연준
First, go in


최연준
Today's story is...


최연준
I'll pretend I didn't hear it


박소현
...

baddie

How did I confess?

With what intention did I confess?

bad boy



최연준
Okay, see you at school tomorrow.


박소현
...hey!

Clank.-

Just then, I heard the front door open.


등장인물
Mom | Oh my, are you coming now?


박소현
Uh...Mom?

At the sight of Mom, Yeonjun and I stood upright, startled.



최연준
Oh, hello..!

As soon as Yeonjun saw his mother, he bowed politely at a 90-degree angle.


등장인물
Mom | Oh my, hello~

등장인물
Mom | Yeonjun was there too?

등장인물
Mom | Are you here to play?


최연준
Oh, no... I'm just going to go now...

등장인물
Mom | That's perfect, our dinner menu is mushroom stew.

등장인물
Mom, go eat dinner~


박소현
Oh, Mom...

Now is not the time to have dinner together...

Mom, my daughter just got dumped by him...


등장인물
Mom | Come in, come in~

등장인물
Mom, I've done a lot, so don't worry~

Mom takes Yeonjun by the arm and brings him into the house.


최연준
..Huh? Huh..?

Yeonjun followed his mother's lead into the front door.

...


박소현
ah..,


박소현
Ah.., Mom, please.. (mumble)

...

..

.




Choi Yeonjun, that bastard finally came into my room.


"It's almost dinnertime, so you guys should hang out in your rooms~"

With my mother's last words, only silence flowed in my room.



박소현
...

Shit,

I want to die.

I'm the one who got dumped 5 minutes ago

It looked like he was sticking it on his forehead.



최연준
Mushroom stew looks delicious.

Yeonjun thought of mushroom stew calmly.



박소현
...

Oh my, is mushroom stew important right now?

Isn't he a bit too indifferent for someone who just got a confession?

This is so annoying..



박소현
Are you seeing mushroom stew right now?


최연준
Yeah, I'm already hungry


박소현
...


박소현
...it's annoying

The more I think about it, the more pissed I get.

My confession is nothing to you, right?

My confession is worse than that mushroom stew.

Seriously, what do I like about that guy?

Are you crazy, Park So-hyun?

It's clear that he's really crazy.



박소현
...


박소현
Hey, what you said in front of my house just now


박소현
What do you think


최연준
...huh?


박소현
No, don't tell me whether to reject or not.


박소현
Just...how was it?


박소현
How did you feel? Did you not hate it?


박소현
...or, okay..


박소현
no.

Why am I asking this?

Is there anything wrong with my mouth?



박소현
..let's pretend I didn't hear that


최연준
...


최연준
...I didn't hate it


박소현
...(pause)


최연준
There's no way I'd hate you right away, but we're still friends.


박소현
...friend (mumbles)

Yeah, I'm just a friend to you, nothing more or less.

...

...I know, I know

But, I can't help but want more.



최연준
...


박소현
...

Ah, it's static again.

...this

Did I bring it out for nothing?


Bam.-

등장인물
Park Si-yul | Boo-ang! Enging pose!! In the name of justice, I will not forgive you!

Siyul bursts open the door and runs in, holding a toy in both hands.



최연준
?


박소현
...Haa, Park Si-yool..


박소현
I told you not to come into my room without knocking.

등장인물
Park Si-yool | Kwaaang! That monster talks a lot!!

등장인물
Park Si-yul | Die!!


박소현
...Hi (straight)


최연준
Long time no see, kid

등장인물
Park Si-yool | Huh

등장인물
Park Si-yool | What the heck, that old monster is still alive?

등장인물
Park Si-yul | Of course, I took care of them all back then!!


최연준
Hehe, I'm back alive again.


최연준
To destroy this world!! Hahaha!!

The Fed rushed to the rate.

등장인물
Park Si-yool | Wow!!! This can't be happening!!


최연준
You are now a dead body. Hahaha.


박소현
...


박소현
...They're having a good time, yeah yeah

Timing it right...

Rather, it turned out well..

It almost got awkward... because I stopped it..

...under




...

" thank you for this food "


등장인물
Mom | Our Yeonjun enjoyed his meal~


최연준
Yes! (Single)


박소현
...When did you see our Yeonjun?

등장인물
Mom | Oh, you never know

등장인물
Mom | When will our Yeonjun become our son-in-law? Hahaha


박소현
...Oh, Mom;

최연준

등장인물
Dad | He's tall and handsome, it's a shame for our ugly duckling


박소현

최연준
No haha


박소현

박소현
Let's eat some food...

등장인물
Mom | Yeah yeah~ haha

So, Yeonjun was only able to leave our house after eating dinner.


Clank.-


등장인물
Mom | Yeonjun, be careful on your way in~


최연준
Yes, thank you for today.


최연준
Thanks to you, I ate well (single)

등장인물
Mom | Oh my, hohoho

등장인물
Mom | Oh my, I almost got in big trouble.


박소현
Why, what

등장인물
Mom | I put the leftover mushroom stew in a lunch box to give to Yeonjun, but he didn't bring it.


최연준
Oh, it's okay!

등장인물
Mom | No, just wait a minute

등장인물
Mom | Sohyun, can you go to the kitchen and get me a lunch box?


박소현
Yeah, I understand

Sohyun headed to the kitchen.



최연준
Ah...you don't have to give it to me...


최연준
I just received it today...

등장인물
Mom | Haha

등장인물
Mom | I did it because I wanted to do it for you~

등장인물
Mom, don't worry~


최연준
I will eat it with gratitude (smile)


최연준
My dad will like it

등장인물
Mom | Haha

등장인물
Mom | Thank you, Yeonjun

Mom held Yeonjun's hand tightly.


최연준
yes?

등장인물
Mom | Thank you for being friends with our Sohyun

등장인물
Mom | I don't know how dependable this lady is.


최연준
Oh, no, what... (embarrassing)

등장인물
Mom | He says he's a bit stubborn and rough around the edges, but he's a good kid at heart.. haha


최연준
...

등장인물
Mom | Please take good care of our Sohyun in the future, Yeonjun~


최연준
Yes, don't worry haha

등장인물
Mom | Haha

Clank.-


박소현
Is this correct?

Sohyun comes out holding a lunch box.


등장인물
Mom | Yeah, that's right~

등장인물
Mom | Yeonjun, eat well~

Mom handed Yeonjun a lunch box.



최연준
Yes! Thank you haha

등장인물
Mom | Sohyun, go pick up your friend.


박소현
huh?


박소현
I?

등장인물
Mom | Then who would it be?

등장인물
Mom | He's your friend, right?


박소현
..Oh, I see,,

I think it would be awkward if there were just the two of them.

...ha..




...

Chubuk chubuk

...



최연준
It's done now


최연준
I'll go alone


최연준
It's already dark, come out


박소현
...Yeah



최연준
Then, go in carefully


박소현
...


박소현
...hey!

It stopped the Fed again.



최연준
?


박소현
...

I don't want to end it like this again

How did you get the courage?



박소현
i like you


박소현
Choi Yeonjun, I like you!

I shouted so loudly that it echoed through the alley.


최연준
!?


최연준
..hey,


박소현
Don't pretend you didn't hear it


박소현
I made it clear


박소현
I like it


최연준
...


박소현
I'm saying this because I don't think you know what kind of heart I have when I confess.


박소현
No kidding, I thought about it a lot.


박소현
I thought I'd just keep my mouth shut and endure it until my heart became numb.


박소현
But it just won't work


박소현
Even at the blind date today, I only thought about you.


박소현
Even with the confession I'm making now, I'm still watching you closely.


박소현
Because I like it


박소현
Because I'm so sincere


박소현
Don't take it lightly


박소현
Because my heart is not light either


최연준
...


박소현
...

Oh, I said.

After I let out all the words I had been holding back, I felt a strange sense of confidence.



최연준
...


최연준
I can't answer your confession...


박소현
I know too


박소현
I'll just like it my way


최연준
...(embarrassment)


박소현
..Ah, anyway!


박소현
I'm done talking


박소현
See you at school tomorrow..!!

I waved at the Fed and headed home.

You may wonder what the point of this confessional attack is.

I was able to fall asleep with a much more peaceful mind.

...





최연준
...

Yeonjun blankly stared at the spot where Sohyun had left.

The Fed seemed stunned by the shocking confession.

Yeonjun, who was unable to answer the confession, felt a mix of guilt and confusion in his mind.

Still

In the hands of the Fed

The side dish container containing mushroom stew

It was so warm.

...

Continued in the next episode>>>>


Hello, it's been a while.

Actually, I was thinking about writing a special episode to commemorate the 40th episode.

I felt like I would get in trouble if I wrote about everyday life in a haphazard way without even letting the sub couples progress, so I just kept the story going.


I just want to write about everyday life, honestly, sob sob sob


however

I can't believe there are already over 40 episodes of this work.

How many years have I been worrying about this..?


ha ha ha


The author was happy to be able to receive constant love.

Now, I leave all the worldly things and shackles and set out to find freedom.

강태현
I can't go until it's finished.



강태현
Where are you going?

...

...save me


Yes, anyway, it was writer Lee Sang.

hmm.


Don't forget to touch my hand. (The writer falls asleep on Kang Tae-hyun's arm)


Yeah yeah
