The Lady's Bodyguard
♤14.



황지아
Huu ...


황민현
Why are you crying again, Hwang Ji-ah?


황민현
I come here often


황지아
But still...don't go...


황민현
Oh my...it's still a kid's kid


황지아
Aren't you sad, oppa?


황민현
Of course I feel sorry too, but there's nothing I can do about it.


황지아
Hurrahh ...


전웅
There's a fuss

I'm not usually this kind of person who cries a lot...

So much has happened this past month that I haven't been able to spend much time with my brother, and I regret it so much. I won't be able to see him for another year, and what should I do if there's no one who understands my feelings?

If Jeon Woong were to make things worse for me, I would want to tell him right away, but I won't be able to do that if he's gone.

All eyes at the airport were on us.

How rare a sight it would be to see a fully grown adult crying while holding onto his older brother, who is not even his lover.

Jeon Woong, who couldn't stand to watch, started to stop me.


전웅
If this continues, I'll miss my brother's plane and fall down.


황지아
Just throw some money at a plane and you're good to go. Hehehe.


전웅
No, so come out


황지아
Oppa...you have to call me as soon as you get there, okay?


황민현
Okay, okay, I understand.

After struggling for several dozen minutes, I finally let my brother go.


황민현
Woong-ah, Jia, please take good care of her. As you can see, she's still a child.


황지아
What's wrong with the kid!!


황민현
Hey Hwang Ji-ah, don't make it hard for Woong either.


황지아
joy!


황민현
Grandpa, Dad, Mom, I'll go.

Oh, that's right. Grandpa, Dad, and Mom all came together.

Even though they were family, I felt more embarrassed than when I realized that strangers were watching me.


황지아
Oh my...

By the time my face was red and ripe like an apple from the shock, my brother had passed through the gate, and I waved my hand vigorously to him.


전웅
Hey ㅋㅋㅋㅋ your eyes look like a goldfish ㅋㅋ


황지아
Don't tease me


전웅
Then why don't you call a carp a carp?

I really, really want to hit you once.




...


황지아
what?


황지아
Another call?


황지아
Why are you calling me again this time?


전웅
I don't know either


전웅
You'll probably just keep nagging about work and stuff.

When I asked Jeon Woong, who was busy getting ready to go out early in the morning, where on earth he was going, he said that he had been called by that damn house again.

If you're going to interfere, then do it. If you're going to throw it away, then just throw it away. Or, you don't usually pay attention and then suddenly call me and say, "What is this?"


전웅
I'll be back soon. I'll be alone for today.


황지아
okay

I didn't want to send it off because I had a bad feeling about it, but since it was from home, there was nothing I could do.





전웅
I'm here, father

아버지
How long are you going to keep chasing that girl?


전웅
Girl, be careful what you say. That guy has a name and is really important to someone.

아버지
This guy is really crazy about women.

아버지
Did I raise you like that?


전웅
No, you didn't raise him like that.


전웅
To be exact, you didn't raise it at all.


전웅
Leaving a child unattended is also a serious form of child abuse.

아버지
Don't talk back

Before I came here, I had a glimmer of hope that maybe my father's personality would improve even a little, but it never got any better, it just got worse.

아버지
What am I supposed to do if you, the one inheriting this company, are this twisted?


전웅
I think you're mistaken. I have no intention of inheriting a company like this.


전웅
If you're going to give it to me, why don't you just give it to my cousin?

아버지
Are you talking about your uncle's son?


전웅
My father is probably the only one who calls his nephew by that title.

아버지
...Oww

아버지
Do you know why you were born?


전웅
I don't know, I don't want to know, and I don't think I need to know.

아버지
It was to take over the company.

아버지
Your mother and I originally had no plans to have children.

아버지
But if you don't have children, the company will go to your uncle.

아버지
Just as I gave birth to you, you must inherit the company.

아버지
So if you want to be generous with me, give up and step back early.


전웅
I had a rough idea

아버지
As expected, my son is quick-witted.

아버지
Then you will know exactly what I am trying to say.

To put it simply, I was born to inherit the company, and if I stubbornly refuse to do so, the blood relationship can end at any time... something like that.

In the first place, I never expected love from my parents, so even after hearing that story, I was just indifferent.

No, I hoped so.

No matter how much I knew about the idea of no thought, hearing such things directly from my father made me feel sad.

My prediction that my father would no longer take me for granted after all that trouble in America was completely wrong.

To my father, I was always a robot that he could control as he pleased.




The time Jeon Woong, who said he would be home soon, arrived home was almost the same as the time he got off work.

If it were any other day, I would have complained with a really upset expression about why he was so late, but today I couldn't do that.

Even as he opened the door and came in, Jeon Woong's face didn't look very bright.

After quietly getting up from the sofa and approaching Jeon Woong, all I could do was take off his coat and pat his back.

As I looked at him with eyes that said, “Everything is okay,” Jeon Woong immediately pulled my arm and held me in his arms.

I was even more flustered because I knew he wasn't the type of person to throw tantrums like this, but I couldn't show it.

For now, it's best to just follow whatever Jeon Woong does.


전웅
Jia


황지아
huh?


전웅
You can never leave me


전웅
Don't leave me, okay?

Woong-i's face, which blurted out such abrupt words, was filled with sadness and loneliness that could not be expressed outwardly.

It seemed like there were tears that weren't flowing, and I could guess how much she was crying inside.


전웅
Seriously... I don't think I can live without you.


황지아
Don't think stupid thoughts


황지아
Why did I leave you?


전웅
...thank you


황지아
I don't know what the hell they talked about there.


황지아
I don't really want to pressure you to tell me until you tell me first.


황지아
But no matter what, I'm always on your side


황지아
Just remember that

I don't know if this small word will do any good, but I wanted to be a small shelter for Woong.

I hope that he, who seems strong, can wipe away tears in my arms, even if only for a moment.

That was my wish.


전웅
Should I inherit the company?


황지아
as you please

If Woong-i said it was okay that he didn't see me often because of work, then that was definitely a lie.

But I could take on anything because I trusted him.


황지아
Of course, I'll be a little, no, a lot busier than I am now, but that doesn't mean you'll neglect me.


전웅
huh


황지아
Then that's fine


황지아
If you work and date, your boss will definitely like it.


전웅
I don't think that's right.


황지아
Tsk, then don't say anything


전웅
Haha no, everything you say is correct


황지아
Ugh...what are you talking about..


전웅
Oh why haha

If you were to ask me how I'm feeling right now, um...

I am happy.

I wish this moment could last forever.

I hope that Woong, I, and all of us in our present state will remain the same forever.

but

They had no idea what kind of crisis was about to strike them.
