My everything

I'm not an old man

Chirp chirp... chirp..

창섭

It's a kid whose name I don't know!! Wake up!!

From the morning, an older man opened the door in front of my room and told me to get up.

여주

Ah... just a little more...

창섭

Oh right, someone kept calling from 8 o'clock until just now.

I opened my eyes and jumped up at the man's words.

여주

So, did you answer the phone?

창섭

huh

The person who called at 8 o'clock was probably my best friend, Im Hyun-sik... But more than that, the fact that he answered the phone... I was truly dumbfounded.

창섭

But that kid turned out to be a boy?

여주

Ha... what did they say after answering the phone...?

창섭

Ah, I told you I was going to sleep, so you asked me to call you when you wake up.

여주

Oh no... what should I do...? I think they must be angry...

창섭

I'll give you a call first and come down; I'll be setting the table.

여주

Wow, sir, you know how to cook too?

창섭

Uncle... ha... yeah, I know how to cook... ;;; Just give me a call and come down.

여주

yes

After the man left, I called Hyunsik. He must have been staring intently at his phone the whole time I was waiting for the call. Hyunsik answered the phone immediately.

현식

Hey!! Did you just wake up?

여주

huh..

현식

I called a lot at 8, and the last person to answer was a man. It couldn't be my father, so could you be...

여주

uh?

현식

Did you run away from home?!!

여주

How did you know...?

현식

Huh? Did I get that right? Then I want to try guessing one more!!

여주

Huh...?

현식

So you just slept at a stranger's house?!!

This guy must be a ghost... How did he know so well...?

여주

Uh... how did you know?

현식

Get out of that house right now and go back into your house right now.

여주

No, even if you didn't know my family's current situation, I know it well... Do you know how hard it was for me in that beggar's house?!!

현식

No... ha... okay, I get what you're saying, so if anything happens at that house, call me right away.

여주

huh

We hung up the phone like that. I can hear the man's voice from the living room all the way to my room.

창섭

Hey!! The rice is ready!!

여주

yes!!

I dragged my heavy body down to the living room and went into the fog.

창섭

Did you finish the call?

여주

yes

창섭

Come quickly and eat.

It was a sumptuous feast on the table.

여주

Wow... That's amazing, sir... You made all of this yourself?

창섭

Okay, eat quickly.

여주

thank you for this food

I was eating frantically and hurriedly. While eating, I looked toward the man. He looked at me brightly, smiled, and spoke.

창섭

What is your name?

여주

I'm Choi Yeo-ju.

창섭

How old are you?

What is this... why are you asking me so many questions about me..?

여주

I'm 19 years old.

창섭

Oh, I see (smiling broadly)

여주

(what...?)

창섭

Yeoju

여주

yes?

창섭

Why do you look so cute while eating?

여주

*Cough cough*..;;

창섭

Eat slowly... Now, drink some water quickly.

Gulp, gulp

Seriously, this guy... while I was eating... he made me choke...

여주

under...

창섭

are you okay?

여주

No... sir... you scared me!!

창섭

what?

여주

Saying I'm cute all of a sudden!! It's no wonder I feel nauseous..;;

창섭

Really? I'm sorry.

여주

under....;;

창섭

Do you want to eat more rice?

여주

No, I enjoyed the meal. But you make really good food, sir.

창섭

Yeoju...;;

여주

yes?

창섭

How old do you think I am to call me "Mister"?

여주

Hmm... 27?

창섭

Ha... I'm 20 years old and my name is Lee Chang-sub. I'm not an old man.

여주

Wow, were you 20?

창섭

Yeah, so call me Oppa, not Ajussi.

여주

Hmm... I'll think about it lol.

창섭

Ha... yeah...

It was unexpected... I thought he was an older man... To think he was a 20-year-old guy, just one year older....
