Living with an S-class guide!
Ep 8. It's getting awkward


After that, Lee Ji-eun was stripped of her Sentinel status. The center director—Seung-cheol is the Sentinel center director—could be seen as abusing her friend's authority a bit.


승철
I feel so refreshed now that I'm out.


정한
But what about Lee Ji-hoon now? He made a fuss saying he didn't believe me and then went over to him.

Is Yoon Jung-han's cider endless? Or is it just his timing?

Or maybe it was just a coincidence, but since Lee Ji-hoon blurted out the exact words as he passed by... he'd probably come for us. Trying not to show he knew, I took a sip of the peach iced tea in my hand. As expected, it was Jeong-han who first shooed Ji-hoon away as he walked towards us.


정한
Do you deserve to be with the female lead?


지훈
No, are you deaf? Move aside.


정한
Well- it doesn't matter to you whether I eat ears or not-


지훈
Ah,


승철
"It won't work if you keep listening. It's obvious you're trying to apologize to Yeoju. But Yeoju's wounds aren't so shallow that an apology like that can heal them. I wonder if you even know...

여주
Seungcheol, I'm fine, I'll just talk for a bit.


승철
...If anything happens, call me right away.

여주
okay.

This was the house where Lee Ji-hoon had been avoiding him lately, avoiding him. Perhaps the situation was similar, as Lee Ji-hoon felt quite unfamiliar with it. He sat down on the living room sofa and waited for Ji-hoon.

여주
If you have nothing to say, I'll go. Kids, wait.


지훈
...

여주
what?


지훈
I'm sorry...

여주
Think about what Seungcheol said.


지훈
...

여주
Think carefully and call again.

I left the house without looking back.

- 3rd person point of view -

Ji-hoon, left alone after Yeo-ju left, supported himself with both arms resting on my legs. His cold eyes were filled with sadness, not resentment or hatred. A drop of liquid fell to the floor, salty as if it contained salt.

His eyes, which were becoming increasingly transparent, spoke of his heart.


정한
So, what did you say?

여주
I told him to think about what Seungcheol said and left...


승철
Well done. Well done.

여주
I don't know if I did a good job...


정한
Well, if it goes wrong, this guy...!


승철
You're going to get in trouble if you bring another guy on. If you mess up, I'll guide you.

여주
...As expected, there are only you guys.

What would I be like if these guys weren't here?

이지은
Oh my, Jihoon. Why did you call me?


지훈
You ask even though you know?

이지은
Foot, this has nothing to do with me.


지훈
What? Hey, that's what I'm saying...

이지은
Rather, it's more important to you. You shouldn't take it at face value.

이지은
Then I'll go.

As if by appointment, we met at a nearby playground. It was late, so the kids were probably asleep. We sat on the swings right next to each other, letting the swings move slightly, and chatted.


지훈
...I'm really sorry.
