Chapter 183 – Chapter 183

「Beep beep beep beep, Tirori」

The password for the front door on the 1st floor and the password for my house on the 7th floor were still the same.

“…”

Dad silently took off his shoes and went straight into the big room, and Mom smiled at him.

“Dad is embarrassed too. You know, dad personality. Not always honest It’s okay, so come in.”
“… I’m home…”

The words that came out after two years and several more months had passed, and I flinched even if I dared to step in.
In the meantime, Miho casually threw his shoe and ran in first.

I’m back! Wow! It’s much bigger than our house!”
“Uh, sister… Haha…”

Perhaps worried about Miho wandering around, Noah quickly cleaned up the shoes that Miho had thrown away, greeted her mother as she entered, and chased after Miho.

“Aww, you are cute. It’s so cute I’m dying. It’s okay, so come in. You know, but if Dad really hated it, he wouldn’t have let me in, even if it meant dying.”
“Yes…”
“Mommy’ll be making some coffee for a while, so she’ll show the kids around your room.”
“Are you there yet? My room…”
“It stays that way. It’s okay to come anytime. Isn’t it obvious? My son, if you live alone outside and have a hard time, so that you can come in anytime. But, I really didn’t know that I was not alone and that I would bring a child like this.”
“… Thank you.”
“All right, boy. Of course, that is. And it’s not bad to see that my son treats his mother like this, ho-ho.”

From beginning to end, my mother continued to soothe me with a kind voice that made it hard to believe that I was an unfilial child who had been away for two years.
I was so grateful and sorry for that.

“I’m sorry, Mom.”

At that, my mother still smiled and stroked my hair.

“It’s okay. Mommy, no matter what happens, she is always by your side.”
“…”

Crying and choking, I just nodded and entered my room with unaccustomed steps.
Then, the desk and computer, which have not changed at all from two years ago, and finally the bed come into view.

[Speech and composition]
[Advanced English]
[Mathematics II]

Even the textbooks that I threw away in my third year of high school were neatly placed on the bookshelf. I’ve never straightened it in the first place, so it looks like new.
Surprisingly, despite being away for such a long time, there is not a speck of dust on the desk, on the computer monitor, or even on the window frame.
What my mother said was true.
She cleaned up every day so I could come anytime, and then she just waited.
My son will come back one day.

“Ah, ha…”

My mother’s love was so consistent that it was heavy enough to be burdensome.
If you think about it now, it was like that every time.

When I ask my mom to buy something, she always stops by the mart or visits her store even though she is busy.
She used to buy it the same day.
Now I know
Just because someone asked me to buy something, how tired and annoying it is to move to buy something you want by somehow freeing up time even in the midst of your busy schedule.

“…”

And her father her always tried to correct me as much as possible, whether or not I was in love with such a mother.
Because he is the head of our house.
He has a lot of responsibility, and although he is an old man who always insisted on being manly…

In a way, when I was in high school, smoking and drinking and just going out… The reason why I didn’t become more of a bastard may be because I had a control device called my dad.
It was thanks to him that he did not become a criminal at all, even though he would drive a nail into his parents’ hearts his.

“Tonnu, are you crying?”
“Dad, don’t cry…”
“No, I am not crying.”

I couldn’t help but cry.
If Dad had seen it, it was clear that the man would have been scolded for having so many tears. I wiped my eyes as quickly as possible and told Miho and Noah about my room.

This is where I go to school and sleep.
I also play computer games mindlessly.

He said that he would do an unreasonable exercise, and showed his mother the old dumbbells he bought her because he begged her … The clothes I wore as a child, school uniforms, and gym uniforms were still there.

Puffy Puffy! It doesn’t even smell good.”

Miho, who dived into the duvet on the bed that looked like it had been washed less than two weeks ago, rubbed her face and was delighted.
On the other hand, Noah is the textbooks or books I wrote.
And he was taking pictures with his phone while looking at the desks with pictures taken in elementary school, middle school, and high school roughly inserted.

It was then.

“The coffee is done, so come out.”

Dad called me, and I went out with the kids, freaking out like a guilty man.
I was the pathetic guy who had to be with the kids like this because I still didn’t have the face to see my dad by myself.

“Okay, sit down.”
“Yes…”

I carefully tried to kneel in front of my dad, and Miho and Noah tried to kneel down as well.
Seeing that, my dad screamed.

“Don’t kneel, sit cross-legged. Dad is more uncomfortable.”
“Sorry.”
“Whoa…”

After a while, Mom brought her coffee and placed them one by one on the small table in front of us. And the children were given orange juice with ice.

“Orange Jutsu! Even if the installment is a bad cut, the old woman is a good cut!”
“Go, thank you…”
“Aww, it’s cute. It’s so cute I’m dying.”

As for my mom, she has been friendly since before, and she is a person who makes the atmosphere as good as possible, so she already has a bright voice.
Dad was the one who couldn’t do that.
I still keep my mouth shut and slowly exhale. I also couldn’t touch my coffee cup quietly while watching my dad’s notice.

“Just drink coffee and go quietly. And just like you did until now, live happily doing what you want to do.”
“Dad, no. Wrong. I was really wrong.”

When I, who was cross-legged, knelt down again, Dad said.

“I told you to do it with both legs.”
“… Sorry. Forgive me, Dad. I know I was wrong.”
“Regardless of that, I’m telling you to be independent because you’re all grown up. Now, there is no need to behave like a filial son. Anyway, we’re used to living without you now. These days, children do not have to take care of their parents unconditionally like in the past, so I am telling you to live on your own.”

Her mother was by her side her, translating her father’s words her separately.

“Because you guys seem to be living well, it’s because my dad doesn’t want to avoid me at this age.”
“What are you talking about, we’re both still in high spirits! I make money, and you make money too! There is nothing wrong with us living alone. So, as you have always done, take care of your family and live.”
“Both Dad and Mom know how tiring it is to live while being hit by family here and there, so they do it because they don’t want you to live like that. Your heart will be different.”
“Ugh! What are you talking about all the time?”
“You are being honest too. Don’t just keep trying to kick me out of the subject of whining that my friends brag about their children to me every time.”
“…”

At Mom’s words, Dad quietly shut his mouth.
Looking at her dad like that, Miho, who had already eaten all the orange juice, licked her lips and said,

“A complete liar and a habitual criminal. Granny, give me another glass of Miho.”
“Okay. Our Miho, we should give as much as we can. There is a lot of juice, so eat a lot.”
“…”
“…”

In a way, I was really fortunate to have my mother and Miho.
The two of them were arousing the atmosphere that would only continue to flow seriously.

「Squeak!」

“Ugh, the viewer is more frustrating. Both go there. My son, stop acting like a criminal, and if you keep doing that, it’s not because dad is more burdened.”

I nodded and prayed to my father one last time.

“… I’ll do well in the future, so please give me one more chance. Now, like when I was young, I won’t rot inside.”
“Yeah, Hyeonu just goes there. Please accept it too! At this age, I have no friends to meet anymore, and my only pleasure is seeing my children and her granddaughter. . Anyway, people are clogged up.”

Miho nodded.

“That’s right, what are you doing? If you accept it easily, both sides will be comfortable, but both of you are babu worms.”
“My granddaughter is right. How frustrated this old lady must be when both of them are men and only act like a ox-catcher at times like this. Would you like some more juice?”
“Kyaaaaang! Just give it whole.”

After hearing that, Dad took a sip of coffee and then cleared his throat and said,

“Only this once.”
“… !”
“If you really didn’t know me, I wouldn’t have accepted you. You know, Dad personality. If you make a mistake once, it’s over with him.”
“Yes…”
“No matter what you do, you do it because you are my son. If it’s over, take the kids and go home.”

It was to the point where I felt sorry for my father’s behavior of trying to send me back from earlier. Still, I thought that if he accepted my apology, he would ask me about my current situation and how he lived. Dad was trying to get me back somehow.

But there was no way I could say anything to my dad like that.
I was just a sinner, so I had no choice but to bow my head.
It was purely my karma, so I had to take my time and work through it slowly.

“No, I’m anxious because I can’t send my child like this. It’s okay, so go have some lunch while you’re here. If it’s okay, would you like to have a drink with your mother?”
“It’s okay to drink, Mom. Bring your car…”
“I’m sorry, my son. Now that they’re all grown up, Mom wondered if she’d have a drink with her son. But, how many times have Mom and Dad told you that you shouldn’t drive drunk?”
“Don’t worry, I haven’t forgotten you yet.”
“Okay. Then mom will make lunch, so she just eats it and goes. What do you want to eat? Mommy will do everything for her.”

Miho’s ears perked up.

“Can you really do it all, grandma?”
“Then. If my granddaughters want it, her grandmother will go to the market right now and buy them everything they need.”
“… !”

At those words, Miho put her hands on her cheeks and was just delighted.

“Then, then. Miho likes kimchi jjigae, gamjatang, and tonkatsu. He also wants to eat bulgogi and tteokgalbi.”
“It’s full of meat. Hmm, it’s hard for grandma to do everything right away. Can she give me one every time she comes? I’ll just make kimchi stew for you today.”
“Ugh! Uuu, that, then please make it large.”
“Yes, yes. Her grandmother will do a lot for you.”
“Mom, Miho ate too much… You really have to do a lot.”

At this, Noah, who was in my arms, jumped up and rushed to her mother’s side his.

“Ha, Grandma, No, Noah will help you… ” …”
“Yes? No, how can I leave it to a child like this?”
“Oh no! Hey, I’m usually by my dad’s side helping me a lot o… No, Noah, because you’re good at cooking and cleaning. He and her sister know how much food and how much they eat…”
“Okay? With that said, can you help me a little?”
“Yes, no, please leave it to me.”

So Mom and Noah went to the kitchen, and Miho lay down and fidgeted with the game console as if he had nothing to do.
My dad and I were still silent like mutes.
I used to be good at talking nonsense when meeting other girls, but now that I’m only in front of my dad like this, I’ve become an idiot.

“Aww, answers. Son, it’s been a while since I’ve been here, so please rub Daddy’s shoulder.”
“Yes Yes! I see!”

Rather, I jumped up and went to my dad as if it went well.

“Whoa, okay, try it sometime.”

Did he think that the atmosphere would become more awkward if he refused this? He let out a sigh, but quietly gave his back.
When I put my hand on Dad’s shoulder, I couldn’t help but flinch.

It was because Dad’s back his was softer than expected.

“What are you doing, don’t sleep.”
“Yes? Oh, I will sleep.”
“If you’re a man, give it some force and try rubbing it.”
“Yes…”

However, he was a father who had become a shoulder and back that seemed like they would break if he really applied his strength his. How can a person get so skinny in two years?

“…”

I tried using the ‘blessing of treatment’ just in case, and in the hope that my dad would give me a little more strength even if my expectations were wrong.

[Use the Blessing of Healing.]

And, I was surprised with Irene.

[Uh, what is it?]
[Did the divine power just get sucked in? Apparently Hyunwoo’s father… You must be very sick. A lot, really. If not, the remaining holy power won’t be depleted at once.]

I was at that moment, now my dad keeps trying to let me go… I went further and found out if I was trying to cut off the relationship like this.
