#1 Not uncle, but oppa - Sugar


I was 23 years old, and a girl came to me.


민윤기
....Aren't you going home?

On this cold day with snow piled up

A loose short-sleeved T-shirt, soaking wet hair, and two feet with only one sock remaining.

That child who looks pitiful to anyone.

Worried about his hands, which had turned red from rolling snow to make a snowman, he asked

Are you okay?

The child's answer at that time was so pitiful.

가여준
Um, can't I go to your house, sir...?

When I met their eyes, I was certain of the bruise left around the neck.

Domestic violence

It was certain.

I ended up bringing that child home.

Drawn in by those sorrowful eyes, wanting to help that poor child


민윤기
Let's go home


민윤기
Hold my hand, we can't get lost.


민윤기
Uh... it's not a very nice place. Do you want to go to the bathroom and wash up first? I'll get you your clothes.

The child nodded slightly and cautiously entered the restroom.


민윤기
Ah, I wonder if there are any clothes.

I hurriedly went outside.

And 30 minutes later


민윤기
Why is there so much air?

I brushed off my snow and came home.

however

가여준
I'm sorry, I'm sorry... I don't have any clothes....

When the child in the turquoise hoodie spoke timidly, I also glanced around nervously.


민윤기
Um, isn't that too big? I did buy it, but...

가여준
I'll just... wear it....


민윤기
Uh... yeah, make yourself comfortable.

And so, living together with that child began.

Slowly, very slowly.
