One kiss costs ten thousand won
23. Come home and live.
After leaving home, Yeoju lives in a basement room.
It's cozy and the rent is cheap, so there's no particular inconvenience.
김태형
"Ha... You were living in a place like this?"
김여주
"So what, as long as it doesn't interfere with your daily life, that's fine."
Taehyung closes his eyes tightly at the female protagonist's words
While my younger brother was living in the basement, I lived in a mansion that was about 60 pyeong in size.
While my younger brother was struggling to make ends meet at a young age,
I took too many things for granted.
김태형
"Lady... Come home and live..."
At Taehyung's words, the female protagonist touched the dark marks on the wallpaper.
김여주
"This is my bloodstain."
김여주
"I was going to kill myself here."
김태형
"what?"
김여주
"It was so hard to bear... it was so painful..."
김여주
"So I tried to die"
김여주
"After I actually cut my wrists, I... didn't have the courage..."
김여주
"How hard must it have been for Joohyun to give up..."
김여주
"When I think of Joohyun, I understand you."
김여주
"Don't lean on me... Don't tell me it's hard..."
The hand of the female protagonist who was caressing the scar was trembling.
There was a hint of crying in his voice.
A corner of Taehyung's heart also felt bitter as he watched that sight.
Even in the summer, Yeoju wore long sleeves to hide the wounds on her wrists.
It was also a wound that I didn't want to be found out about.
김여주
"Brother..."
김태형
"...uh"
김여주
"You have to trust me, oppa..."
김여주
"I... can't be abandoned"
On the cheek of the female protagonist who turned her head towards Taehyung
Tears were flowing.
The heroine quickly wiped away her tears.
Taehyung quietly hugged Yeoju and patted her.
김태형
"Cry... as much as you want..."
김여주
"..."
The female protagonist holds Taehyung's arm tightly
I cried silently.
Even though Joo-Hyeon died, he hated his father more than anything because he only cared about his grades.
I don't think I could stand seeing the face of that man calling himself a 'murderer' for a whole year...
I would rather go home than die.
In the past, there was no one to lean on... no one to trust...
Now there are people who believe in you.
I want to live... and I don't want to lose anything...
And above all else
I want to be happy....
