47 ] Father's embrace

지민아버지

"Hmm... You, with your pride, are kneeling down..."

Jimin's father, who was looking at him with interest, speaks to Jimin.

지민아버지

"Okay, I'll grant that wish. But there will be some back and forth, right? Would you still do it?"

"Of course."

"Please put Seo Ji-ho and Yoo Jin-ah in jail."

So Jimin's father gave bribes to the police station and had Eugene and Seo Ji-ho imprisoned.

I smiled for no reason at the bitter feeling that money can buy everything, and walked along.

"J..Jimin... Are you kidding..? If you're kidding, then get us out quickly.."

박지민/26 image

박지민/26

"Haha, do you think this is a joke? You still don't understand the situation, do you?"

유진아

"What..? What did I do wrong..?"

박지민/26 image

박지민/26

"Did I do something wrong..?"

박지민/26 image

박지민/26

"I did something wrong... Don't you know better? Do you not realize anything even after being thrown in prison?"

박지민/26 image

박지민/26

"Well... trash is trash until the end, right? It's only real trash, right?"

서지호

"Aren't those words too harsh? I'm just jealous of Wise Ah...ugh,!!"

박지민/26 image

박지민/26

"Oh, I was jealous... The person who said he was jealous would stab his friend in the back of the head like that? That's so ridiculous lol"

박지민/26 image

박지민/26

"It's disgusting, so just rot and rot here forever lol"

박지민/26 image

박지민/26

"It's such a shame that this is the only punishment I can give you guys, lol"

서지호 image

서지호

"..Ugh..Ughh ...

I turn back the way I came, leaving the screams behind.

박지민/26 image

박지민/26

"I don't want any more punishment, even Se-ah."

박지민/26 image

박지민/26

"It would be better to be thankful that it ends here."

.

..

...

So I got out of prison and came to the restaurant I had promised my father.

지민아버지

"...You're here.."

박지민/26 image

박지민/26

"yes"

지민아버지

"Yes. The price for your wish is"

지민아버지

"I hope you will inherit the chairmanship."

박지민/26 image

박지민/26

"Yes..? The reason you're giving it to me and not to my brother.."

지민아버지

"Your brother said so."

지민아버지

"I feel sorry for you. You're my little brother, so why are you treating me differently?"

박지민/26 image

박지민/26

"..."

A teardrop fell from Jimin's eye.

It couldn't be helped that my father, who had always said harsh things to me since I was little, suddenly changed like this.

지민아버지

"I'm really sorry"

지민아버지

"Jimin-ah"

박지민/26 image

박지민/26

"Sob,.. Father... Heuk,...."

Jimin.

This is probably the first time I've ever called someone by their last name.

지민아버지

"..Come here.."

I cried bitterly in my father's arms.

It was warmer than ever.

It felt like my frozen heart was melting away.
