Maginot Line with you

[Episode 53] The human heart is like water.

What a ridiculous situation this is.

In front of a deserted bus stop, three people standing with rather awkward looks awkwardly exchanged gazes.

윤여주

........

I know those eyes.

The discomfort that couldn't be hidden, the quick glances that scanned who I was, and the questions and subtle reproaches within them.

Why would a kid in his early to mid-twenties, at best, hide his expression when he has more to hide? Yeah,

....Even in those young eyes, I guess I am someone who should not be there.

윤여주

....he...

윤여주

Mr. Geo, I might have a lot of time on the weekend, but I don't think you'll have time.

윤여주

Smile)) Is that your girlfriend? She's pretty.

Despite the inexplicable sense of discomfort, a calm voice flowed from the mouth that was smiling brightly.

In a subtle way, the flow deviates from the topic,

It wasn't that hard to convince a girl I was seeing for the first time that I had nothing to do with the guy named Izio.

윤여주

You two look great together. I love you so much.

윤여주

......

And these words are the only true message among the turbidly mixed emotions.

이지오

....Miss Yeoju..!

윤여주

Well then, I'll just wait until the bus comes.

His voice called me with a slightly urgent tone, and I lightly ignored it. As I got on the bus, I felt the driver glance at the two people left at the bus stop.

The driver looked at the two motionless people for a moment, clicking his tongue, until I tapped my transportation card and sat down in one of the few empty seats, and then started the bus.

윤여주

윤여주

......((I lean my head against the window and look outside.

Could it be said that the human heart can be expressed as water?

It doesn't get hot or cold easily, so it maintains the right temperature well.

Even a few drops of non-contact paint will quickly become cloudy and lose its color.

It's already been twice since I got drenched in the rain without any cause, trying to wash away my dirty mind.

What kind of fate do I have that I have to live such a twisted life?

To some, a look of resentment, a look of disappointment, a look of longing, displeasure, and discomfort.

In this world where there is no absolute evil and no absolute good,

It was a life lived with no time to choose the best, content with the lesser of two evils.

But in the end, the look in my eyes that says all these choices, this line I'm standing on, is all of my own making...

How on earth should I accept this?

윤여주

.....under....

윤여주

.......

I haven't eaten much, but I feel nauseous. I think I might be getting motion sickness.

_The next day,

차혜정

Miss! I'm sorry, you went home alone yesterday, right??

윤여주

Yes..? Yes, that's true, but...

차혜정

I never thought about that. You could have just driven home with me.

윤여주

Oh, no. It's okay to take that bus. It's not that far.

차혜정

No! The world is so dangerous these days...! Geo-ssi, you're a young man with a lot of courage, so I'm letting my guard down...

차혜정

It seems like Yeoju has lost a lot of weight lately... and her health has also deteriorated a lot, so that's why... Are you having trouble eating lately..?

윤여주

Ah.... That's because it's the changing of seasons.

윤여주

I lose my appetite whenever the seasons change, haha... Thank you for your concern.

차혜정

.......

Dingling

Ding-

차혜정

Whoosh-)

차혜정

Oh, Mr. Geo. Are you at work? You're a little late today. Hurry up and change your clothes.

이지오

Ah, ...yes,

이지오

........

윤여주

.....

이지오

......

He glanced at the side profile of the female lead, who was not paying attention to him, whether intentionally or not, and then quickly went into the changing room.

and...

차혜정

..Ah, Yeoju-ssi. That's right.

차혜정

You know Kim Seokjin? Why, he's the one I made dinner plans with last time.

윤여주

......ah,

윤여주

..Seokjin, yes... I remember.

차혜정

Sing)) He actually runs a small restaurant. I met him while studying abroad and he majored in Western cuisine.

차혜정

He said he wanted to invite Yeoju to his store. It was a bit awkward because Yeoju left early that day...

윤여주

.........

윤여주

.....ah,...

차혜정

Looking at her, it doesn't seem like she's viewed negatively by the female protagonist. She's a really nice girl. She has a good personality.

차혜정

I don't think you've been eating well lately, so give me a call. Hehe, maybe they'll be waiting for you?

차혜정

윤여주

............

...Actually, I didn't hear what the boss said.

..yeah, that day......

Huh, ... that......

차혜정

Miss Yeoju,

윤여주

...yes?

차혜정

Are you listening? ...Are you feeling unwell?

윤여주

..No, heh....Thank you for your concern. ..And I will contact Seokjin soon.

윤여주

......

I should have told you clearly the second time we met.

No matter how you viewed me, this relationship cannot continue any longer.

...it's not your fault. It's just my...

.....

It's my fault for being indecisive

_LA Airport

백시혜

........

백시혜

under......

USA, LA

She was looking around as if looking for someone, avoiding the bright sunlight, and all she had in her hand was a carrier.

For a country far away from where I had flown for a whole day, my luggage seemed inadequate.

And a frame of appropriate size placed on top of it.

백시혜

.......

백시혜

....He said he'd wait, but why can't he see me...

It was my first time traveling abroad alone.

And that too, impulsively, despite my father's opposition.

..But, it seems to be blocked from the start......

.......

???

Baek Si-hye!!!

백시혜

Whoosh-)

백시혜

.....he,

김태형

Sigh))

김태형

Welcome! Dear my friend

백시혜

Long time no see, Kim Taehyung

김태형

Hey- you're still the same even after so many years, kid

백시혜

You're still good at Korean, I thought you were really clumsy.

김태형

I had some time to reflect for a few days,

김태형

Anyway,!

김태형

But is that all you have? I thought you were just coming to relax since you came so suddenly, but are you just going to stay for a few days?

백시혜

Sigh)) No, I'm just going to sit here.

김태형

What?! Your husband??? Does he know you're here??

백시혜

..I got divorced. No, I'm planning to get divorced.

김태형

....?

백시혜

It's long, so to speak. ..but, how long are you going to keep me here?

김태형

...Ah.. First, let's go to my house.

김태형

Kim Tae-hyung, 30 years old (30 in American age, 32 in Korean age) / Si-hye's friend
