Chapter 93 – Episode 93. Memories (10): Mountain Top

My grandfather poured the contents of the pot into the dog bowl inside the cabin.

Contains ramen broth and ramen.

The dog food began to float on top of the ramen soup.

“Lee Chae-rin! Come in and eat!”

Her maternal grandfather gave an order, and the woman named Lee Chae-lin began to crawl, shaking.

Not long after, a sound was heard, and the woman started eating dog food ramen.

“This is how to truly dominate a woman. Women like strong men. It is a woman’s nature to feel secure within a man’s enclosure.”

“Do women like being beaten like that? It’s amazing.”

My grandfather shook his head.

“Every woman’s temperament and erogenous zone are different. And everyone’s tastes are different. Of course, all women have the qualities to become a bitch. So, we need to awaken that hidden bitch instinct. That girl also has such a lustful body. You probably didn’t know it existed.”

“Ah…”

“You just have to learn slowly.”

How to deal with women.

My maternal grandfather was like a one-time instructor.

This maternal grandfather, who seemed full of anachronistic ideas, started to look cool.

I want to be like that too.

Before I knew it, my eyes had become filled with longing.

“But… My grandfather. I think she caught a cold. She was almost bare…”

“Don’t worry. This guy has a way.”

“Now shall we go to the top of the mountain?”

“…”

My eyes began to contain disgust again.

**

Even though it was winter with cold winds blowing, my forehead was full of sweat.

The back of my grandfather climbing the mountain, braving the winter wind.

I got angry every time I saw it.

Aren’t you tired? Is that the old man?

Clearly the current weather was winter.

You have to climb the mountain behind in winter!

It was really difficult to hold my body in place.

Gasp- gasp- gasp-

I was so out of breath that I couldn’t go any further.

“How much, how much is left?”

“Hmm… I came too slowly. At this rate, it will take another 2 hours.”

“…”

I was now lying against a large rock.

My body lost all strength and I couldn’t move.

Child abuse is obvious.

As expected, he was crazy…

Now that I think about that Chae-rin sister from before, she’s a crazy bitch.

It was crazy to have her head stuck and beaten almost naked in the winter. Or the fact that she is being threatened.

I wasn’t the only one feeling sorry.

As before, when I took a break for more than a certain amount of time, I started the ideological education again to see if I was tired of it.

“Housekeepers belong to our family because they work for our family!”

I nodded as if I understood.

“In other words, they are the same things that work for you!”

Value ideology education.

It was repeated until it was normal.

In fact, I still didn’t understand why my grandfather was giving this kind of education, but I responded by pretending to sympathize and understand everything.

It was a time when I had to repeat my grandfather’s words a lot to avoid making a fuss.

“Follow me! It is the man who dominates the woman!”

“It is men who rule over women!”

I shouted as loud as I could.

“Bigger!”

… Every time I stopped like that, I had to repeat the sentences my grandfather recited.

“Women must be dominated!”

“Women are the earth and men are the sky!”

Satisfied that I followed along well, I moved on to the next sentence.

“Humans are animals! Men are males and women are females!’

Wouldn’t it be pretentious to say that I have to take a walk in the mountain behind the mansion with my grandfather every week?

I really promised and promised again that I would never come next time.

A voice heard again

“Just because she’s not married doesn’t mean she’s not my woman.”‘

A loud and rough voice,

I no longer flinch and shrug my shoulders when I hear it so much.

“Males must know how to handle females”

I nodded and answered what my grandfather said.

“I have a duty to protect the females that come into my enclosure.”

He nods his head in satisfaction.

Deep down, I still don’t understand my grandfather’s bullshit.

I’m just saying what I heard.

I have no idea what you want to say.

My grandfather said something.

I couldn’t follow because my neck hurt so much.

If it were like other children, wouldn’t they have hit their maternal grandfather?

Or would he have cried and cried and run home alone and locked the door?

No matter what my grandfather said or shouted, I covered my ears and did not open my mouth.

I feel like I’m going to die because it’s so hard.

Just kill me!

It was then.

One word that comes to my ears.

Jia.

I slowly opened my eyes.

His maternal grandfather was right in front of him.

“You want a girl named Jia so much?”

His grandfather came up to his nose and whispered.

“You want a girl named Jia so much?”

The word ‘Zia’ finally brought me to my senses. These were meaningful words.

“…!”

I raised my head and looked at my grandfather

“I can keep you by my side”

I got goosebumps all over my body.

“… Really?”

“My word is law.”

“Oh…!”

I let out an exclamation and took a deep breath.

“So get up and follow your grandfather.”

At this time, I felt strength rising throughout my body.

Jia… If only Jia came!

At that moment, I imagined many things and had dream-like fantasies and optimistic expectations.

Playing around with Jia under the blanket in a very wide bed

Locking the door in room 205 and secretly kissing Jia

And Jia fell down.

Ouch!

I’m crazy!

What are you thinking?

I am becoming increasingly crazy because of my grandfather.

What kind of place are Gucheon-si and Yeokcheon-si, which are full of the influence of this crazy maternal grandfather?

I think I know a bit now, but I don’t think I know more.

When I was about to give up on going to the summit, I heard the magic word Jia.

Then I started walking to the top of the mountain, imagining that Jia would become my younger sister.

But even Jia’s special medicine didn’t last for an hour.

This is the march I only heard about…

I’ve never been to the military, but I had a gut feeling that if it was less than this, it would be less and not as bad.

The moment I was about to stop, my body suddenly became slightly lighter.

At the same time, I felt the urge to go to the top of Yeokcheon Mountain.

Something that I feel like I shouldn’t go without.

It was something instinctive.

I started walking towards the summit at a slightly lighter pace.

After walking for about 2 more hours, I finally saw the top of the mountain.

It has finally arrived.

I never imagined I could come this far. I couldn’t believe it.

Honestly, I wanted to praise myself profusely as a human victory.

The top of a mountain littered with rocks.

And between the rocks there was a very wide open space.

There was a large monument in the center of the mountain peak.

Familiar Chinese characters were hard to see.

I absent-mindedly walked up and gently stroked the tombstone.

Stinging-!

Ugh-!

My palms tingled, and my legs felt weak.

I felt a little dizzy and sat down.

My grandfather sat quietly on a rock and began to quietly open his mouth.

“It must be very difficult. Lie down.”

When I heard my grandfather’s voice, I was reminded of the stress I had felt for several hours.

There were times when I begged to go down, saying I couldn’t walk.

Every time that happened, my grandfather just told me to come to my senses.

A very large open space at the top of the mountain.

It was quite a spacious place.

I still haven’t calmed down.

After sitting for a while, I realized that it was truly impossible for me to walk at all.

My legs hurt so much.

I just did what I wanted, followed my body, and just lay down on the floor of the vacant lot.

Buldeong-

I gave up worrying about my clothes getting dirty a long time ago.

Quiet summit.

As I lay down and closed my eyes, I heard many sounds.

Caw-

The sound of a crow ringing somewhere in the distance.

The sound of grass bugs.

The sound of valley water flowing somewhere.

And the voice of my maternal grandfather that I don’t want to hear.

“I came here a lot with my father. My father liked to climb to the top of the mountain and look down.”

My grandfather’s eyes were steeped in memories.

“I went hiking early in the morning to see the sunrise floating in thick clouds at the top of the mountain.”

As I lay down in the vacant lot, my body felt completely relaxed.

Whoo-

I sigh and gasp.

“Take a deep breath. Feel the air at the top.”

As I took a deep breath, my rough breathing calmed down a bit.

I finally felt it. The air is spotless.

The pouring sunlight and refreshing air.

With the sunlight shining on me, I feel like a traveler trying to sleep with the warm sunlight as a blanket.

My lungs are cleansed by the refreshing air at the summit of Yeokcheon Mountain.

The fresh air seemed to circulate and cleanse my body, making me feel as if I had inner energy.

As the fresh air reached my lungs through my nose, I felt lighter.

Feeling like your body is gone? Feeling like I’m floating like a soul?

I close my eyes and take in the air.

It reminds me of the ramen I ate earlier.

I was starving as if my digestion had already been completed.

When I thought of ramen, I thought of my sister, Chae-rin, who would finish her meal with the ramen we had left over.

Isn’t that sister hungry?

When I go down here, will I be able to see that sister again?

Even though I was sleepy, I couldn’t come to my senses while thinking about women.

Why am I so sleepy?

My eyelids became drowsy.
