The deepening wounds of the heart

42. Resentment

[Eunbi's Perspective]

I tried to sleep, but

I couldn't sleep.

The result estimated from the sound heard from outside

It seemed like Dad called my eldest aunt and someone named Seongjun.

I thought, just in case

I couldn't sleep

Not long after, the doorbell rang, and

I heard my eldest aunt's voice.

And then, a little while later

It seemed like a man named Seongjun had come.

Dad told the two people the situation.

Then, the words I heard

Eunbi's Dad) Actually, we talked about divorce before...

Eunbi's eldest aunt) What??

정은비

.....

I didn't want to hear it

I tried hard to cover my ears.

Still, as soon as I heard the voice, I went completely under the covers.

Eunbi's eldest aunt) Did this bastard really have an affair?

Eunbi's Dad) Oh, please hold back..!

정은비

.....

My eldest aunt seemed to explode upon hearing Dad's words, and

It looked like Dad was barely managing to stop him.

정은비

*Gasp*....

Tears welled up again.

I had to cry silently.

If my family falls apart... what will happen to me...?

Eunbi's eldest aunt) This thing..!

Eunbi's Dad) Child, please calm down and sit down.

Eunbi's eldest aunt) Do I look like I'm going to stay calm?

Eunbi's eldest aunt) No matter how much she is my younger sister

Eunbi's eldest aunt) I can't stand it.

Eunbi's dad) Sister-in-law...

The sound coming from outside is

It was a nightmare for me.

If only this were a dream....

I just hope nothing happens when I wake up...

It's impossible, but I wish it were possible.

Why did this have to happen of all things?

정은비

.......

I absolutely couldn't understand it

As time went by, only resentment accumulated.

Resentment toward my mother

Resentment toward Dad

Resentment toward parents...

I felt like I was going to go crazy.

I was filled with nothing but thoughts of wanting to die.

정은비

.... I need to go to the bathroom

It has calmed down a bit outside now.

I went outside to use the restroom.

Eunbi's dad)......

Eunbi's eldest aunt)......

A person named Seongjun)......

He didn't say a word even after seeing me.

It goes without saying, but...

Just as I was about to go back into the room...

Eunbi's eldest aunt)... Hi Eunbi..?

정은비

.... yes

I couldn't see my eldest aunt's face.

I just answered and went into the room.

I lay down on the bed.

A corner of my heart felt incredibly stifled.

And yet, it ached.

I don't know why I'm acting like this either.

It was just a shock.

When I wake up,

I wish there were no one at home.

I suppose it can't be helped, Oppa....

Mom and Dad too...

I just didn't want to see it

I know this is wrong, but...

I know I'm being selfish, but...

I'm having such a hard time...

Eunbi's eldest aunt) Hoseok's dad, let's go get some painkillers.

Eunbi's Dad) Oh, it's fine. It's okay.

Eunbi's eldest aunt) Let's go instead of being stubborn.

Eunbi's Dad) It's really okay.

Eunbi's eldest aunt) Hurry up!

My eldest aunt eventually left home with my father, and

It seemed like someone named Seong-jun had left as well.

Not long after, the sound of washing dishes was heard.

It looks like Mom is doing the dishes...

Only after it became somewhat quiet outside

I was able to sleep.
