Overcome the Trauma
#9: Worries



여주
Aunt, I'm back!!

As soon as the female protagonist entered the house, her aunt greeted her.

이모
Oh, you're here~?

이모
How was your day?


여주
Teacher Jihoon did a great job.


여주
He even brought me there because it was dangerous!!

이모
Oh my... I really need to thank Teacher Jihoon...


여주
yes that's right!!

The female protagonist's aunt

이모
That... heroine...


여주
yes?

이모
Yeah, no..

이모
Play haha


여주
yes yes..

The female protagonist's aunt kept trying to tell the female protagonist but ended up avoiding it.

Finally, the female protagonist, feeling frustrated, asked cautiously.


여주
Aunt...what's wrong...?

이모
Huh...?!

이모
Oh, no...


여주
But you kept trying to tell me something...

이모
Ah... that's... actually...

이모
My aunt has to go on a business trip...


Are you on a business trip?

이모
Yeah... but it's an important project so I can't not go...


여주
How long...?

이모
At least a month, at most two months.


여주
ah....

The heroine was once again overcome with anxiety.

In case his aunt sends him back to his old home.

But being alone in this house wasn't entirely pleasant. No, I thought it might be scary and lonely.


여주
What...are you going to do?

이모
So...I'm worried...

이모
Let's think about this slowly.

이모
Because there's still a week left before my business trip.


여주
yes..

The heroine fell asleep with a heavy heart.

The next day dawned.

Just like yesterday, Yeoju went to find Jihoon.


여주
Teacher Jihoon!!


지훈
Hey, heroine! You're here? Haha


지훈
Did you sleep well?


여주
yes

The female protagonist answered that she slept well, but her face was dark.

And it wasn't Ji-Hoon who didn't notice that.


지훈
Your complexion doesn't look good..?


여주
....No, no..

The stuttering made Ji-Hoon even more confident.


지훈
Where does it hurt? Do you have a cold?


여주
Oh, no...


지훈
...Then what are you worried about?


여주
....


지훈
You must be worried.


여주
....yes.


지훈
Can you tell me what your problem is?


여주
that is...

The heroine hesitated to speak.

But Jihoon didn't rush her, but looked at her gently and waited for her to speak.

Seeing Ji-hoon like that, Yeo-ju relaxed and spoke fluently.


여주
Actually, my aunt is going on a business trip.


여주
But that was only one or two months...


여주
But I don't want to be alone during that time, and I hate going back to my old house even more.


지훈
ah...

Jihoon thought for a moment and then picked up his phone.


여주
?


지훈
Sorry, can I talk to you for a moment?


여주
yes.

A few minutes later, Ji-hoon came back and smiled brightly.


지훈
The female protagonist's concern was that her aunt was on a business trip and she didn't want to be alone and she didn't want to go back to her old house, right?


여주
yes..


지훈
Then may I make a suggestion?
