Chapter 26 – Reunion? Is There Anything Like That?
“Who is this?”
“Uh, yes. High school classmate.”
“Ah…”
The woman greeted me with a smile as if she roughly understood.
“Hello.”
“Hello.”
“Hey, nice to meet you anyway. I didn’t expect to meet you in a place like this.”
“I know.”
After me and the woman exchanged greetings lightly, Park Jong-hyeok proudly placed his hand on the woman’s shoulder and began to talk at will.
“Where are you going?”
“To eat.”
“Alone?”
“Uh.”
“Ha… You bastard.
“None.”
There are many sex slaves, but not girlfriends.
In response to my answer, Park Jong-hyeok sighed and said with an expression that he knew that.
“Well… There’s no way you’d have a girlfriend.”
“…”
Well, what do you mean? This ill.
As I stared at him, he waved his hand and said,
“Ah, don’t get me wrong. I’m not saying you’re ugly. You’ve always been quiet.”
“It did.”
“But dude. We’ll be 30 in a little while, so we should enjoy our youth a little more before it’s too late. Just like me.”
Saying that, he grabbed the woman by the shoulders and pulled her closer to him. It didn’t seem like the woman particularly hated it either.
Anybody can see her attitude as if she’s showing off her girlfriend to me.
But do you know what?
The name feature phone didn’t exist until smartphones came into the world. The name “Feature phone” Was created to distinguish old phones that were left behind by smartphones.
Why are you talking on the phone all of a sudden?
It was because, to me, that woman standing next to Park Jong-hyuk felt like that feature phone.
If she had been me before knowing elves, I might have thought she was a decent woman.
He must have been jealous of Park Jong-hyuk, who had such a woman next to him.
This guy would have dared to talk to me passing by in order to taste that sense of superiority.
But I already know the taste of elves.
The eyes are too high.
Judging from my standards, the woman Park Jong-hyeok was wearing was nothing more or less than ‘female orangutan A’.
Carrying an orangutan by your side in a downtown area… He’s a guy with a lot of odd hobbies.
Still, I understood Park Jong-hyuk.
Originally, wouldn’t everyone in the world live for their own good taste?
If I were in the same position, I would have wanted to show off or show off.
I, a big man, should understand. Cancer.
“Yes. It suits you well.”
I held back a laugh inside and stood up for Park Jong-hyuk. It is true that they fit well together.
However, he said with a steamy expression that he didn’t like my reaction very much.
“A boring guy. Yes. Eat well. I’m leaving.”
“Yes. Goodbye.”
After saying goodbye, I was on my way back, but Park Jong-hyeok called me back.
“Oh.”
“?”
“You, are you coming to our class reunion this time?”
“Reunion?”
Is there anything like that?
“Didn’t you hear from Changsoo? We were supposed to do it next Saturday near Yo.”
“I’m hearing this for the first time.”
I didn’t even know there was such a thing as a reunion in the first place.
Well, I don’t think even I would have called a guy like me.
Even if I called, I wouldn’t have gone.
When I showed an expression of disinterest, he suddenly approached me and whispered in a low voice.
“I heard that Minjeong is coming this time too.”
“Minjeong?”
“You idiot. Don’t you remember?
“Ah.”
I remembered. Come to think of it, I think there was such a kid.
Yoo Min-jeong.
She was exceptionally pretty and sociable enough to be said to be the top not only in our class but also in the entire school.
At least, he was a much more human-like child than the orangutan standing behind Park Jong-hyuk. I don’t know if it’s because of memory correction.
“She’s really amazing. Actually, she also sold Minjeong’s name and dated her. Is she a beauty YouTuber or something? Since she’s a kid who made a million appearances with that, she seems to be very famous among girls her age.”
“Indeed.”
A million It’s definitely great.
“If you’re interested too, come. Do you know Changsoo’s contact number? If you call him, he’ll tell you the place. You liked Minjeong too. If not, when will we see him?”
“…Okay.”
I never particularly liked it, but I just nodded my head.
“Okay. Then see you then. I’m really going.”
“…”
So Park Jong-hyeok disappeared across the street with the woman by his side again.
It was obvious what that guy was thinking. It must be an ulterior motive to replenish the number of people who will shine at the reunion.
But I had no interest in the orangutan couple from the beginning.
More than that, it’s Yoo Min-jung…
I am not particularly interested in Yoo Min-jung, but I am interested in the fact that she is a million nitubers.
Although her genre is completely different from hers, I am now your tuber.
Even if the field is different, if you are a million nituber senior, you will surely be able to hear good advice.
These days, it’s a great job as long as you’re good at being a nituber or a phonetuber.
It was just a story up to my father’s generation that was shushed as an obscene field.
Now, as long as you keep the lines well, even if you are a phone tuber, you can be confident. The half-body guys I once envied to death are just such people.
Well, I’m not envious at all now.
“No, there is one thing I envy.”
The orangutan bragging that Chong Pak did to me just now.
I can’t do that. Even if it does, it only goes beyond the video.
Because the things I can bring to this world are limited.
It was impossible to bring the really important elves.
If I could bring him, more diverse things would be possible.
“…”
For a moment… You don’t have to conclude that you can’t do it, do you?
It’s just that I haven’t figured it out yet, maybe there’s a way to bring in the elves?
“Now that I’ve remembered, I’ll have to try an experiment starting today.”
I hit the road again First, solve the meal first.
***
At the same time, Rosamia and Allen were having an intimate dinner together. Since Allen got well, she has been a sight to behold every day.
Due to the nature of the elves, the dining table was simple and they didn’t have a particular tendency to greedy appetite, but the fact that the mother and son could eat together made the two happy. Because I couldn’t even imagine that before.
However, unlike usual, today Rosamia’s expression was a bit shadowy.
“Mom?”
“…”
“Mom!”
“Ugh, huh? What’s wrong, Allen? All of a sudden you scream.”
“Mom, what’s going on? She just sits blankly before the meal. She’s called several times, but she doesn’t answer.”
“Is that so? Sorry, I was thinking about something else for a while…”
“Think of something else?”
“No… It’s nothing. More than that, how are you feeling lately? Can I stop taking the medicine yet?”
There were many parts of the medicine Lee Seon-woo gave that had not yet been verified. All she knows is that the ingredients in the medicine are similar to what she received and drank from Lee Yeon-woo in the past.
If so, this medicine is also only a temporary measure, and will not have the power to cure the curse itself.
Now was the stage where we had to keep watching the progress.
“Ah… Come to think of it, I forgot to say it. Actually…”
Allen said that when she woke up this morning, she felt more relaxed than usual. It’s like she’s back in her old days.
Of course, because he had received extra pills from Lee Seon-woo in advance, he said that he regained his energy right away.
“Because it was five days ago that I took the medicine for the first time… The duration of the medicinal effect is five days.
“…Okay.”
Allen was a meticulous and clever kid. She could have been excited because her body, which had been sick for a long time, had become healthy, but he was surprisingly calmly examining her body condition.
“Did you look so dark because you were worried about that?”
“Huh? Ah… Uh, that’s right… But now I’m relieved to hear what Allen said.”
“Mom is really…”
Then, seeing Allen dispel her doubts, Rosa Mia let out a sigh of relief within herself.
In fact, the problem Rosamia was contemplating was something completely different.
‘Illumina… Why did she do that?’
When she heard about Irumina from Lee Seon-woo, Rosamia was quite surprised in her heart.
If it was Irumina she knew, she would never have done something like that.
Because Irumina… Because she was a child who liked Allen more than anyone else.
Irumina was Rosamia’s stepdaughter even before Allen was born.
When she was entrusted to Allen, she was Irumina, and she had just become an adult.
Irumina loved Allen as much as Rosa Mia and raised her younger brother with love.
It’s definitely love as a family… It must have been
But as Allen grew up, Irumina came to the realization that she was seeing her younger brother through her own eyes, not her own family.
Yes.
Irumina… She came to love Allen not as her younger brother, but as a man.
But by the time she realized that feeling, it was already too late.
Because Allen had Aricia.
The two loved each other.
There was no room for her.
So… When Allen was of age for her coming-of-age ceremony, Irumina left her house.
She felt like something would happen if she stayed by Allen’s side.
And this story was something she only confided in Rosamia.
‘A child who loves Allen that much… There’s no way she would do something dangerous like that.’
However, Lee Seon-woo said that Irumina had pointed her sword at him.
I think I need to talk to Irumina separately.
“Mom…!”
“To?”
“…You were blank again, right?”
“Me, sorry. What did you say?”
“So, Seonwoo hyung.”
“…Seo, why Seonwoo?”
When Seonwoo Lee’s name came out of Allen’s mouth, Rosamia’s expression hardened.
Perhaps the relationship with Sunwoo… Didn’t you get caught?
She remembered what she had done in Lee Seon-woo’s room just before dinner.
After all, at that time, I heard her voice and noticed it…
However, the words that came out of Allen’s mouth were of a completely different nature than she expected.
“This is just my feeling.
“…What?”
Rosamia was speechless for a while at that absurd remark.
What the hell is this kid talking about?
“But it’s strange, isn’t it? Seonwoo hyung is a nice person, but that he helps us like this for no reason… But if he’s just trying to look good because he likes her mother, it’s all explained.”
“That can’t be the case. As I said before, Seonwoo and we have a mutually beneficial contract…”
“Ah. That’s just an excuse. Anyone can see that Seonwoo hyung’s gains are small… But according to my hypothesis…”
“Allen… If you keep saying strange things, Mom will get angry.”
“Your mother gets angry? Uh… That’s what I’m curious about. Well, she’s never seen her mother get angry…”
Yes it will There was no reason for Rosamia to be angry with Allen, who was sick with a curse.
“Okay? Shall we take this opportunity to show you?”
“Uh, Mom? Why are you coming closer… Uhm…!?”
“Do bad kids deserve punishment?”
“Mom…! Puff…! Su, choking…”
Without warning, Allen’s face was buried in Rosamia’s chest.
Allen struggled until her ears turned red, but she still lacked the strength to free herself from Rosa Mia’s arms.
“Are you going to say something weird or not?”
“Ugh… Ah, I won’t! I won’t…!”
“Good.”
Only then did Rosamia free Allen.
“Puha…! Heo-euk… Heo-euk… I really thought I was going to die. It’s too much, Mom. Even if I look like this, I’m definitely an adult, but this kind of corporal punishment is a bit…”
“What is an adult… No matter how many years pass, he’s still a baby in front of me. Do you understand?
“Oh, okay. I really won’t do it anymore.”
“…I hope you knew. Go to bed early today. It’s good to learn that… Thing, but it’s not good for you to stay up late at night.”
“All right.”
After his meal, Allen went back to his room.
Rosa Mia laughed as she tidied up her tableware left alone.
“…Really, that sounds stupid.”
