After altering channels again and again, he lastly requested.

“Is there something you need to watch?”

“…A film?”

Sure, let’s somewhat watch a film, it would assist empty my head. Solely this hope motivated her brief reply.

Si-Jin handed the distant management again to Na-Yool.

“Choose no matter you need to watch.”

“Can I play one from the ‘newest motion pictures’ class?”

“Why do you have to ask?”

“As a result of it prices 10,000 received…” Na-Yool blurted out. However upon realizing how tight on cash she sounded, her face barely contorted in disgrace.

Positive sufficient, she heard a comfortable chuckle coming from her facet. Noo, I’m not poor! Who would pay 10,000 received to replay a film at house?! Any peculiar citizen wouldn’t…

In fact, there have to be extra such folks on the earth than she thought, just like the one proper right here. Whereas Na-Yool was brainwashing herself that it was okay, Si-Jin snatched the distant management from her and performed the ten,000 received one which Na-Yool was speaking about.

Why give me again the distant management then…!

“To any extent further, choose no matter you need. Regardless of the value.”

Was simply being granted to look at paid TV applications at will value being so moved? Na-Yool felt like the feminine lead of a drama, when the wealthy male lead drags her to the division retailer and asks for all the baggage within the boutique ‒ and she or he then would look at the baggage from each angle regardless of saying “I can’t settle for this”. That type of responsible thrill.

“I received’t keep lengthy right here, so…” Na-Yool stated, additionally to persuade herself there was nothing to get excited over. As a result of she was embarrassed for unintentionally feeling giddy. Si-Jin ignored her and pointed his chin on the display screen the place the film was beginning.

Proper from the beginning, the film started with a marriage. Na-Yool didn’t even know what Si-Jin had picked, however later realized it was a romantic comedy which flopped on the field workplace a short while in the past.

“That’s an surprising selection coming from you…”

“It was the primary on the record.”

“Don’t you hate this sort of film?”

“I abhor it.” Si-Jin replied flatly.

Na-Yool muttered with a sigh.

“I knew it.”

“And also you, do you prefer it?”

“Under no circumstances.”

Si-Jin smiled brightly, seemingly happy by her reply. His eyes shone with the real reduction that she didn’t like this style.

However did he not play it as a result of he thought she would love it? Removed from being disenchanted, he even lifted the distant management, able to leisurely spend one other 10,000 received just like the well-off man that he was. Na-Yool rapidly stopped his hand.

“No want. Let’s hold watching.”

“However we each hate it.”

“It’s advantageous, else it’s a waste of cash.”

“Nevertheless it’s an even bigger waste of time to look at it.”

It is perhaps true for him, however Na-Yool’s personal time was not value throwing away the already spent 10,000 received. She adamantly shook her head.

“It’d get funnier in a while.”

In fact, although, there is perhaps the explanation the film flopped.

A short time after that, they have been staring on the display screen, sitting facet by facet, when the protagonists immediately kissed, pledging their everlasting love. Each instantly frowned on the similar time. Altering the course of the ‌dialog, Na-Yool spoke up.

“Do you have got plans to get married?”

“Don’t.” Si-Jin replied resolutely as his eyes remained fixated on the display screen. “What about you?”

“Not that but.”

“Good.”

She didn’t know what that ‘good’ meant, however she acquiesced anyway and inquired additional.

“Does your loved ones not say something?”

“I’m the black sheep of the household, so not likely.”

Certainly, dwelling with a son like this at house may very well be burdensome, Na-Yool thoughtfully consented.  As she did so, Si-Jin returned her query.

“And also you?”

“My mother doesn’t say a lot, however my relations have been urgent me for just a few years now.”

As quickly as she turned 26, they introduced up marriage out of the blue. What century have been they dwelling in!

“Sounds such as you’re getting some meddling in?”

“They are saying ladies ought to marry at an exquisite age. Hilarious!”

“Hm.”

“They make super fuss about how I’ll remorse lacking the precise timing to marry and fail to do it later. It has been occurring for 3 years already, I believe? And if I say I’ve no plan to but, they admonish me for dwelling thoughtlessly. Nicely, that’s how issues are. I simply ignore it.”

“You don’t must pay them any thoughts.”

“When it will get so annoying and I say I’ll by no means marry, my uncle at all times argues that individuals who say so are the primary to marry. That I’ll come to my senses as soon as I mature up. When he himself bought married in immaturity… I’m so sick of it.”

Si-Jin, who had been quietly listening to her complaints, turned his gaze from the TV to her and abruptly stated: “Then ask your uncle.”

“What?”

“When he’s going to divorce.”

“…Sorry?”

“In fact, he’ll reply that he received’t. Then politely inform him. That those that say so are at all times the primary to divorce.”

“……”

“Then he’ll shut his mouth.”

Si-Jin stated so with a sort smile, as if bestowing her a pearl of life knowledge. Na-Yool’s jaw dropped, and solely her eyes blinked in stupefaction.

For certain, he’s not your common wacko!

Na-Yool blurted out in marvel.

“I can perceive why your loved ones doesn’t reside with you.”

“Sure, they get fed up each time I open my mouth.”

If he acts the identical manner in entrance of his dad and mom, it’s comprehensible.

Si-Jin shrugged and picked up the espresso positioned on the desk. Solely then did Na-Yool discover her personal share he had ready for her. She picked it up as properly and sipped.

“Nonetheless, I believe your dad and mom could be pleased with you. And doubtless have excessive expectations concerning your marriage and issues like that.”

“Not likely.”

“You may have completed issues by yourself. Even when they don’t say it out loud—”

“You’re studying an excessive amount of into it. I’m only a stray troublemaker.”

“…Stray?”

Na-Yool had a youthful brother. One who had as soon as gone astray too. When folks say the son of some household went astray, it is actually because a 17-year-old bought caught smoking, as a result of they bought in an accident whereas drunk driving, or as a result of they ran away from house. A typical instance of rebellious part.

Not when a person in his 30s began his personal firm and grew it right into a stable enterprise…

“Mr. President, what precisely are your loved ones ‒ oh so upright ‒ requirements then?”

“At any charge, not my present self, even with my President standing.”

“……?”

The extra he talked, the extra Na-Yool was confused. At first, his dad and mom could have objected that it was a harmful initiative. But when his enterprise is as affluent as it’s now, what sort of mum or dad wouldn’t be glad about it?

Perplexity ‌remained on Na-Yool’s face, however Si-Jin modified the topic as if refusing to debate it additional.

“If you happen to’re okay with it, inform me about you.”

“…About what?”

“Your dad and mom, household, that type of factor. Or any trivial subject is ok, too.”

“Are you actually inquisitive about these?”

Na-Yool had nearly adopted ‘actually’ by ‘merely’. The truth that she was caught between a way of vivid actuality and of phantasm ‒ it was most likely due to such moments like proper now. Each second when phrases which didn’t match him, like ‘sincerity’ or ‘curiosity’, got here to thoughts as she checked out his good-looking face.

They’d slept collectively a dozen extra instances, and when it got here to feeling bashful, such trivial matters couldn’t even examine. Nevertheless it was nonetheless unusual. Whereas she was cool concerning the varied vulgarities Si-Jin often uttered, his consideration made her really feel unsettled.

“I’m curious.”

“Even in case you hear it, you’ll most likely suppose it’s not value it.”

“It’s about you.”

“……”

Na-Yool’s face burned up. Ahh he’ll discover… so embarrassing, actually! Then again, she additionally realized how ‌lowly she had at all times considered his human qualities. Each time he spoke like a human being was adopted by a way of mismatch.

“So it’s value it.”

“Why do you have to know, anyway?”

“It is going to be of use someway.”

As Na-Yool stared at him suspiciously, Si-Jin raised his subtly flickering eyes. Only a few seconds in the past, these eyes have been taking a look at Na-Yool’s cheeks as if taking a look at a scrumptious little factor.

……Oh no.

An alarm in her head began ringing loudly. Actual hazard was coming! Nonetheless, the impression that he was prepared to leap and devour her at any time lasted solely an immediate.
